DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a portable radio telephone device such as a radio telephone used in a cellular telephone system or a large zone wireless telephone system via a radio base station.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, with the expansion of service areas for wireless base stations and the like, the number of users of portable wireless telephone devices capable of making calls even without a general wired telephone line has been rapidly increasing.

Hereinafter, a conventional portable radio telephone device will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4. FIG.

As shown in FIG. 3, a power switch 2 is mounted on the side of the apparatus main body 1 and a battery box 3 is detachably mounted on the back, and a display unit 4 for displaying the operation and operation state of the apparatus is provided on the front. It has a button part 5. An openable / closable foldable microphone flip unit 6 that covers the display unit 4 and the operation button unit 5 is rotatably attached to the apparatus main body 1 and a hinge unit 7. An antenna 8 attached to the device body 1 so as to be extendable and retractable; a microphone 9 for voice input provided in the microphone flip unit 6;
It has a speaker 10 for voice output from the other party.

The operation of the portable radio telephone having the above-described configuration will be described below. In the conventional example, the display unit 4 and the operation button unit 5 are covered, and the foldable microphone flip unit 6 that can be opened and closed by the rotation of the hinge unit 7 is closed, so that the antenna 8 is stored in the apparatus main body 1. When the user carries a call, the microphone flip unit 6 is opened, the antenna 8 is extended if necessary, and the power supplied from the battery box 3 attached to the apparatus main body 1 is turned on by the power switch 2. After confirming on the display unit 4 that the radio wave with the wireless base station is in a standby state in which the electric field strength level capable of wireless communication is maintained, the user presses the dial key of the operation button 5 and dials in, or A telephone number storing a several-digit telephone number is called to make a call. The voice of the caller is input from the microphone 9, converted into a radio wave, and transmitted via the antenna 8. The voice from the other party receives a radio wave via the antenna 8, is converted into a voice signal, and is output as voice from the speaker 10. When the user receives an incoming call from outside, the microphone flip unit 6 is opened, the antenna 8 is extended as necessary, and the power supplied from the battery box 3 attached to the apparatus main body 1 by the power switch 2 is turned on. Turn on, confirm the status of the electric field strength of the radio wave with the radio base station on the display unit 4, put the apparatus in a standby state in which the level of the electric field strength capable of wireless communication is maintained, and wait for the ringer sound of the incoming call ,
The user goes off-hook with the operation button 5, connects the line, and starts talking with the caller.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. The same components as those described in the conventional example are denoted by the same reference numerals.

As shown in FIG. 1, a power switch 2 is mounted on the side of the apparatus main body 1 and a battery box 3 is detachably mounted on the back, and a display section 4 for displaying the operation and operation state of the apparatus is provided on the front. It has a button part 5. An openable / closable foldable microphone flip unit 6 that covers the display unit 4 and the operation button unit 5 is rotatably attached to the apparatus main body 1 and a hinge unit 7. An antenna 8 attached to the device body 1 so as to be extendable and retractable; a microphone 9 for voice input provided in the microphone flip unit 6;
It has a speaker 10 for voice output from the other party. The above configuration is the same as the conventional example. The difference from the conventional example is that a transparent panel window 11 corresponding to the display unit 4 is provided in the microphone flip unit 6.

The operation of the portable radio telephone having the above configuration will be described below. In this embodiment, a state is shown in which the foldable microphone flip unit 6 that covers the display unit 4 and the operation button unit 5 and can be opened and closed by turning the hinge unit 7 is closed, and the antenna 8 is stored in the apparatus main body 1. When the user makes a call, the microphone flip unit 6 is opened, the antenna 8 is extended as necessary, and the power supplied from the battery box 3 attached to the apparatus body 1 is turned on by the power switch 2. After confirming on the display unit 4 that the radio wave with the wireless base station is in a standby state in which the level of the electric field strength capable of wireless communication is maintained, the user presses the dial key of the operation button 5 to perform dial input or
Alternatively, a telephone number in which a telephone number or the like of several digits is already stored is called to make a call. Alternatively, with the microphone flip section 6 closed, the antenna 8 is extended as necessary, and the power supplied from the battery box 3 mounted on the apparatus main body 1 is turned on by the power switch 2, and the transparent panel window 1 is turned on.
After confirming that the radio wave from 1 to the radio base station displayed on the display unit 4 is in a standby state in which the level of the electric field strength capable of wireless communication is maintained, the microphone flip unit 6 is opened, and the operation button unit 5 Press the dial key and dial.
The voice of the caller is input from the microphone 9, converted into a radio wave, and transmitted via the antenna 8. The voice from the other party receives a radio wave via the antenna 8, is converted into a voice signal, and is output as voice from the speaker 10. When the user receives an incoming call from outside, the microphone flip unit 6 is opened, the antenna 8 is extended as necessary, and the power supplied from the battery box 3 attached to the apparatus main body 1 is turned on by the power switch 2. Turn on, confirm the status of the electric field strength of the radio wave with the radio base station on the display unit 4, and put it in a standby state in which the level of the electric field strength capable of wireless communication is maintained.
After the ringer sound of the incoming call is heard, the user goes off-hook with the operation button 5, connects the line, and starts talking with the caller. Alternatively, with the microphone flip unit 6 closed, the antenna 8 is extended as necessary, and the power supplied from the battery box 3 attached to the apparatus main body 1 is turned on by the power switch 2, and the display is performed from the transparent panel window 11. The radio wave with the radio base station displayed on the unit 4 is kept in a standby state in which the electric field strength level at which radio communication is possible is maintained, and after the ringer sound of the incoming call is heard, the microphone flip unit 6 is opened, To go off-hook, connect the line, and start talking with the caller.
Further, if the transparent panel window 11 is formed in a convex lens shape instead of a flat surface, the content displayed on the display unit 4 is enlarged, and it is possible to make it easier to visually recognize.
