Description
本発明は、ストラップを具備するカメラ付きの情報端末に関する。 The present invention relates to an information terminal with a camera having a strap.
スマートフォンや携帯電話などの情報端末においては、落下防止などを目的として様々なバリエーションのストラップが用意されている。 In information terminals such as smartphones and mobile phones, various variations of straps are prepared for the purpose of preventing falling.
ストラップの取付位置は、携帯端末の本体の左右または上下の側面のいずれか一か所に固定されているのが通常である。このような情報端末において、実装されたカメラを利用して子供やペットなどを撮影すると、ストラップがカメラの撮像エリアに入り込み、子供やペットなどとともに、意図せぬストラップが撮影されてしまうことことがある（以下、このような現象を「ストラップの映り込み」という。）。 Usually, the strap is attached to one of the left, right, upper and lower sides of the main body of the portable terminal. In such an information terminal, if a child or pet is photographed using the mounted camera, the strap may enter the imaging area of the camera, and an unintended strap may be photographed together with the child or pet. (Hereinafter, such a phenomenon is referred to as "reflection of a strap.")
ストラップの映り込みを防止するために、カメラ位置よりも下方にストラップ取付部を設けるカメラ付き情報端末が提案されている（例えば特許文献１参照）。 There has been proposed an information terminal with a camera in which a strap attaching portion is provided below a camera position in order to prevent reflection of a strap (for example, see Patent Document 1).
しかしながら、従来のカメラ付きの情報端末においては、撮影するときの情報端末の持ち方や、ストラップの長さ、さらには撮影するときの環境（強風や雨など）によっては、たとえカメラ位置よりも下方にストラップ取付部が設けられていたとしても、ストラップがカメラの撮像エリアに入り込んでしまう場合があり、ストラップの映り込みを効果的に防止することができない、という問題があった。 However, in a conventional information terminal with a camera, even if the information terminal is held at the time of shooting, the length of the strap, and the environment (strong wind, rain, etc.) at the time of shooting, even if the position is lower than the camera position. However, even if the strap attaching portion is provided, the strap may enter the imaging area of the camera, and there is a problem that reflection of the strap cannot be effectively prevented.
本発明は、以上説明した事情を鑑みてなされたものであり、ストラップの映り込みを効果的に防止することが可能なカメラ付き情報端末を提供することを目的とする。 The present invention has been made in view of the circumstances described above, and an object of the present invention is to provide an information terminal with a camera that can effectively prevent the reflection of a strap.
本発明の一態様に係るカメラ付き情報端末は、本体と、本体に設けられたストラップの取付部と、ストラップの紐が挿通され、紐の一端と他端との間で移動可能なストッパ部材と、本体に設けられ、ストッパ部材を係止可能な係止溝とを備え、ストッパ部材を係止溝に係止させることで、ストラップはカメラの撮像エリア外に退避可能に構成されることを要旨とする。 An information terminal with a camera according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a main body, a mounting portion of a strap provided on the main body, a stopper member through which a strap of the strap is inserted, and which is movable between one end and the other end of the strap. A locking groove provided in the main body and capable of locking the stopper member, wherein the strap is configured to be retractable outside the imaging area of the camera by locking the stopper member to the locking groove. And
本発明によれば、ストラップの映り込みを効果的に防止することが可能となる。 According to the present invention, reflection of a strap can be effectively prevented.
添付図面を参照して、本発明の好適な実施形態について説明する。なお、各図において、同一の符号を付したものは同一又は同様の構成を有する。 A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In each of the drawings, components denoted by the same reference numerals have the same or similar configurations.
Ａ．本実施形態
図１は、本実施形態に係るストラップ５００を具備するカメラ付きの情報端末１０００の外観構成を示す図であり、図１Ａは、カメラ付きの情報端末１０００の正面図、図１Ｂは、カメラ付きの情報端末１０００の背面図である。
カメラ付きの情報端末１０００は、例えば子供向けの情報電話やスマートフォンであり、本体２００の背面Ｓｂの上部にはカメラ３００が設けられる一方、本体２００の上側面Ｓｕ（具体的には、カメラ３００の略直上）にはストラップ取付部４００が設けらている。ストラップ５００の一端Ｅａは、ストラップ取付部４００を介してカメラ付きの情報端末１０００に固定されている。ストラップ５００の他端Ｅｏには、フィンガーフック５１０が設けられている。本実施形態に係るストラップ５００は、ユーザの指をフィンガーフック５１０にひっかけて引っ張ることで、ブザー音を発する警報ストラップを想定するが、警報ストラップである必要はなく、紐Ｒｏを備えた様々なタイプのストラップに適用可能である。
A. First Embodiment FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating an external configuration of an information terminal 1000 with a camera including a strap 500 according to the present embodiment. FIG. 1A is a front view of the information terminal 1000 with a camera, and FIG. It is a rear view of the information terminal 1000 with a camera.
The information terminal 1000 with a camera is, for example, an information telephone or a smartphone for children. The camera 300 is provided above the rear surface Sb of the main body 200, while the upper surface Su of the main body 200 (specifically, the (Usually immediately above), a strap mounting portion 400 is provided. One end Ea of the strap 500 is fixed to the information terminal 1000 with a camera via the strap attaching section 400. The other end Eo of the strap 500 is provided with a finger hook 510. The strap 500 according to the present embodiment is assumed to be an alarm strap that emits a buzzer sound by hooking a user's finger on the finger hook 510 and pulling it. Applicable to straps.
図２は、本実施形態に係るストラップ５００の部分拡大図である。
ストラップ５００には、ストッパ部材５２０が設けられている。ストッパ部材５２０は、ストラップ５００がカメラ３００の撮像エリアＡｐ（図１Ｂ参照）に侵入することを防ぐための部材であり、ストラップ５００の紐Ｒｏを挿通する挿通孔Ｈｏが設けらている。ストッパ部材５２０は、例えばシリコーン等によって形成されており、紐Ｒｏの一端Ｅａと他端Ｅｏとの間で摺動自在に移動可能となっている。
FIG. 2 is a partially enlarged view of the strap 500 according to the present embodiment.
The strap 500 is provided with a stopper member 520. The stopper member 520 is a member for preventing the strap 500 from entering the imaging area Ap (see FIG. 1B) of the camera 300, and has an insertion hole Ho through which the string Ro of the strap 500 is inserted. The stopper member 520 is made of, for example, silicone or the like, and is slidably movable between one end Ea and the other end Eo of the string Ro.
図３は、ストッパ部材５２０の部分拡大図であり、図４及び図５は、ストッパ部材５２０と溝６００との係止状態を例示した図である。
図３及び図４に示すように、ストッパ部材５２０には、溝６００と係止可能な４つの係止片５２１が設けられている。ストッパ部材５２０は、カメラ付きの情報端末１０００の本体２００の側面Ｓｓに設けられた溝（係止溝）６００に、着脱自在に係止される。詳述すると、各係止片５２１は、それぞれ異なる方向に突設形成されており、係止片５２１のそれぞれが溝６００と係止可能となっている（図５参照）。なお、係止片５２１の形状や数などは、溝６００の位置や大きさ、形状などに応じて適宜設定変更可能である。
FIG. 3 is a partially enlarged view of the stopper member 520, and FIGS. 4 and 5 are views illustrating a locked state between the stopper member 520 and the groove 600.
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the stopper member 520 is provided with four locking pieces 521 that can be locked with the groove 600. The stopper member 520 is detachably locked in a groove (locking groove) 600 provided on the side surface Ss of the main body 200 of the information terminal 1000 with a camera. More specifically, the locking pieces 521 are formed so as to protrude in different directions, and each of the locking pieces 521 can be locked with the groove 600 (see FIG. 5). The shape and number of the locking pieces 521 can be appropriately changed according to the position, size, shape, and the like of the groove 600.
溝６００は、外部接続端子（図示略）を備えた接続部に設けられたものである。ストッパ部材５２０が係合されていない場合には、接続部の外部接続端子に、有線ケーブル等を介して外部機器を接続することで、各種データの授受が可能となる。なお、本実施形態では、ストッパ部材５２０を固定する係止溝として、接続部の溝６００を利用しているが、例えば、他の既存の溝を利用してもよい。もちろん、ストッパ部材５２０を固定する専用の係止溝をカメラ付きの情報端末１００の本体２００の任意箇所に設けてもよい。 The groove 600 is provided in a connection portion having an external connection terminal (not shown). When the stopper member 520 is not engaged, various data can be exchanged by connecting an external device to the external connection terminal of the connection unit via a wired cable or the like. In the present embodiment, the groove 600 of the connection portion is used as the locking groove for fixing the stopper member 520, but, for example, another existing groove may be used. Of course, a dedicated locking groove for fixing the stopper member 520 may be provided at an arbitrary position on the main body 200 of the information terminal 100 with a camera.
このようなストッパ部材５２０を溝６００に係止させることで、ストラップ５００は、カメラ３００の撮像エリアＡｐから完全に退避される（図４参照）。ストッパ部材５２０は、フィンガーフック５１０が設けられた他端Ｅｏに近い位置で係止されるため、情報端末の持ち方等によらず、確実かつ効果的にストラップの映り込みを防止することが可能となる。 By locking such a stopper member 520 in the groove 600, the strap 500 is completely retracted from the imaging area Ap of the camera 300 (see FIG. 4). Since the stopper member 520 is locked at a position close to the other end Eo where the finger hook 510 is provided, it is possible to reliably and effectively prevent the reflection of the strap regardless of how the information terminal is held. It becomes.
Ｂ．その他
本発明は、上述した本実施形態に限定されるものではなく、本発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲内において、他の様々な形で実施することができる。例えば、カメラ付きの情報端末１０００は、子供向けの情報電話やスマートフォンに限定する趣旨ではなく、ストラップを備えたカメラ付きのノートＰＣ、タブレット端末、ウェアラブル端末、撮像端末など、様々な情報端末に適用可能である。
B. Others The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be embodied in other various forms without departing from the gist of the present invention. For example, the information terminal 1000 with a camera is not limited to information phones and smartphones for children, but is applicable to various information terminals such as a notebook PC with a strap, a tablet terminal, a wearable terminal, and an imaging terminal. It is possible.
