[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 When using a mobile phone, it is usually done with both hands, but sometimes it is difficult to do it with both hands when carrying luggage in one hand, making a phone call while taking notes, or driving a car. You must use the phone with one hand. When the telephone is used with one hand, the user holds the telephone with one hand and presses the buttons with the thumb or the like of the held one hand. Because the buttons are located below the center of gravity of the telephone, the lower part of the phone is held so that the thumb can reach by operating the buttons. In this holding state, the center of gravity of the telephone is located above the holding position. Therefore, in the case of a telephone having a high center of gravity and a heavy holding state above, if a button or the like is operated with the thumb of one hand held, the holding force of the hand is weakened, and the telephone is easily dropped from the hand. The drop creates a danger of accidental recalling, or occasional damage to the phone, or picking up the dropped phone while driving a car. Also, there is no stability in the operation of the buttons, so it is difficult to press the small buttons of the mobile phone. On the other hand, in the case of using only one hand, there is a problem that it is difficult to use unless the holding position between the operation of the buttons and the conversation with the ear is changed.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and is intended to solve the problem. The object of the present invention is to provide a portable device that is hard to fall off from a hand even when used with only one hand and does not change a holding position. To provide a mobile phone. Another object of the present invention is to provide a portable telephone which has stability in one-handed holding, facilitates operation of small and narrowly spaced buttons peculiar to portable use, and has an easy-to-read display as before. .

[Embodiment of the invention]

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a front view showing an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is an explanatory view showing the use state of the present invention with one hand.

In FIG. 1, (1) is a portable and vertically long telephone body, in which an electric circuit, switches, a microphone, a speaker and the like are mainly incorporated. The size of the outer shape is almost the same as the conventional one.

(2) Buttons having various functions provided on the front side of the telephone body (1). The buttons (2) include a start button, an end button, a number button, A star button, a sheep button, a memo button, a navigation button, a manner button, a clear button, and the like are arranged, and buttons having other functions are arranged as necessary. In the arrangement of the buttons (2), buttons (2) that are usually frequently used, such as a start button, an end button, and a number button, are arranged at the top, and the other buttons (2) are When it is arranged at the lower part, the holding of the telephone body (1) is higher, and the stability is more preferable. Note that the function of the buttons (2) is the same as that of the related art, and thus the description thereof is omitted, and the arrangement order of the buttons (2) is not necessarily limited to the embodiment.

[0010] (3) is a display arranged below the buttons (2) in the vertical direction on the front side of the telephone body (1), and is normally displayed for each function of the buttons (2). is there. The position of the display (3) has been conventionally supposed to be arranged above the small portable telephone so that it is not obstructed even if it is gripped by hand and is easy to see. However, as in the present invention, the display (3) is located below the telephone body (1). Even if the display (3) was placed, it was found that the hand could be gripped without actually blocking the display (3) as shown in FIG. Since the structure of the display (3) itself has the same function as that of the conventional display, the description is omitted.

[0011] (4) is a mouthpiece, (5) is a mouthpiece, the mouthpiece (4) is above the buttons (2), and the mouthpiece (5) is below the display (3).

(6) is a telescopic antenna.

[0012]

[Effect of the invention]

 The present invention has the following effects by being configured as described above.

[0013] In the present invention, the display (3), which is conventionally disposed above, is disposed below the vertical direction of the telephone body (1), and the buttons (2) are disposed above the display (3). As a result, when using the telephone body (1) with only one hand, the holding position of the telephone body (1) in accordance with the operability of the buttons (2) is higher than in the past, and from the hand to the upper part. Since the length of the telephone body (1) that protrudes is short and can be held across the center of gravity of the telephone body (1), there is stability even when the buttons (2) are operated with the thumb of one hand that is held. The buttons (2) are easy to press, especially when the phone body (1) is set near horizontal so that the display (3) can be seen. It is difficult for the phone body (1) to fall from the hand.

One hand holds the entire telephone body (1) near the center of gravity or across the center of gravity, so that the conventional holding state in which the center of gravity of the telephone body (1) is biased is not applied to one hand, and the length is long. Even if it is used for a long time, no extra burden is imposed on the hand and it becomes easy to use.

[0015] Furthermore, the holding state with one hand can be changed depending on the time when the buttons (2) are operated and the time when the user places a call on the ear, without changing the holding position as in the related art. Can be used in a state.
