そして、一対の充電端子は携帯電話機の電池端子に接触できるように、載置部において筐体の表面から常に突出した状態となっている。
【０００３】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
したがって、従来の携帯電話機用卓上ホルダでは、充電端子が筐体の表面から常にむき出しの状態となっており、良いデザインを施しても見栄えが悪い不具合があった。
特に、複数のキーからなる操作部が設けられた第１本体と、電話番号などの各種の情報を表示する液晶表示部が設けられた第２本体とがそれら操作部と液晶表示部が合わさるように折畳み可能に連結された携帯電話機の場合、その卓上ホルダは、第１本体が載置部に載置された状態で第２本体が開かれるように構成される場合が多く、そのため載置部の表面積が大きくなり、充電端子が載置部の表面から常に突出している状態は極めて目立ち、携帯電話機用卓上ホルダのデザインを損なう不具合があった。
本発明は前記事情に鑑み案出されたものであって、本発明の目的は、デザインの自由度を高め、外観性を高めることができる携帯電話機用卓上ホルダを提供することにある。

【０００５】
本発明では、載置部から携帯電話機が外された状態で充電端子は筐体の表面上に突出しておらず、携帯電話機の載置部への係脱に連動して一対の充電端子を欠部を通して筐体の表面上に出没させる。
【０００６】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の実施の形態について図面を参照して説明する。
図１は携帯電話機と携帯電話機用卓上ホルダの斜視図、図２は携帯電話機を携帯電話機用卓上ホルダに載置する際の説明図で携帯電話機用卓上ホルダの上方に携帯電話機が位置している状態の正面図、図３は携帯電話機が携帯電話機用卓上ホルダに載置された状態の正面図、図４は細長状部材の取り付け説明図を示す。本実施の形態に係る携帯電話機用卓上ホルダ１２は折畳式の携帯電話機用である。
折畳式の携帯電話機１４は、平板状の第１本体１６と第２本体１８とから構成され、第１本体１６の内面に複数のキーからなる操作部やマイクが設けられ、第２本体１８の内面に電話番号などの各種の情報を表示する液晶表示部やレシーバが設けられ、第２本体１８の先端にアンテナ２０が設けられている。
これら第１本体１６と第２本体１８は、操作部と液晶表示部が合わさるようにそれらの基部１６Ａ、１８Ａが折畳み可能に連結され、携帯電話機１４は、操作部を上に向けた状態で第１本体１６が携帯電話機用卓上ホルダ１２に位置決めされて載置され、このように第１本体１６が載置された状態で第２本体１８が開かれるように構成されている。
なお、説明の便宜上、第１本体１６の基部１６Ａと先部１６Ｂとを結ぶ方向を長さ方向といい、基部１６Ａと先部１６Ｂとを結ぶ方向に対して直交する方向を幅方向という。
【０００７】
前記第１本体１６の背面１６Ｃに充電池が収納されている。また、図２に示すように、前記充電池を充電するための２つの電池端子２２が、第１本体１６の背面１６Ｃの基部１６Ａ側の端部に設けられ、これら２つの電池端子２２は第１本体１６の背面１６Ｃと同一面上に位置し、背面１６Ｃは平坦な面として形成されている。
前記第１本体１６の基部１６Ａ側の端面に前記幅方向に沿って所定の長さ延在する凹部２４が設けられ、第１本体１６の先部１６Ｂの両側面に、前記長さ方向に沿って所定の長さ延在する凹部２６がそれぞれ設けられている。
【０００８】
携帯電話機用卓上ホルダ１２は、筐体３０と、前記筐体３０に設けられ携帯電話機１４が載置される載置部３２と、前記筐体３０内に設けられたプリント配線基板(中継基板)３４と、前記プリント配線基板３４に固定された外部電源接続のためのコネクタ３５と、前記プリント配線基板３４の電源供給回路に接続され携帯電話機１４の電池端子２２に接触する一対の充電端子３６と、一対の充電端子３６を載置部３２上に出没させる連動機構３７などを備え、携帯電話機１４の充電時にはコネクタ３５が充電器に接続される。
前記載置部３２は、携帯電話機１４の第１本体１６を、その内面を上に向けて筐体３０上で位置決めして載置するものであり、前記載置部３２は、載置面３８と、載置面３８の外縁箇所から起立された３つの側壁４０、４２、４２と、各側壁４０、４２、４２に形成された係合壁部４４，４６，４６とで構成されている。
３つの側壁４０、４２、４２は、第１本体１６を載置面３８上に位置決めするためのもので、また、係合壁部４４，４６，４６は、前記凹部２４、２６、２６に係合して第１本体１６が載置面３８に載置された状態を保持するためのものである。
【０００９】
前記載置面３８は、携帯電話機１４の第１本体１６の背面１６Ｃが載置されるように、背面１６Ｃよりも若干大きな面積で筐体３０の上部に、上向きの平坦面として形成されている。
なお、説明の便宜上、第１本体１６の基部１６Ａが載置される側を筐体３０の後部とし、第１本体１６の先部１６Ｂが載置される側を筐体３０の前部として説明すると、前記３つの側壁４０、４２、４２のうちの１つの側壁４０は、載置面３８の後部において幅方向に延在する横部４０Ａと、横部４０Ａの延在方向の両端からそれぞれ載置面３８の側縁に沿って前方に延在する縦部４０Ｂとで構成されている。また、残りの２つの側壁４２，４２は、載置面３８の前部の幅方向の端部からそれぞれ幅方向の内側に延在する横部４２Ａと、載置面３８の前部の幅方向の端部からそれぞれ載置面３８の側縁に沿って後方に延在する縦部４２Ｂとで構成されている。
【００１０】
前記１つの側壁４０の両縦部４０Ｂの内側は、携帯電話機１４の第１本体１６の基部１６Ａの両側面に当接する側面４００２として形成されている。また、残りの２つの側壁４２，４２の各縦部４２Ｂの内側は、第１本体１６の先部１６Ｂの両側面にそれぞれ当接する側面４２０２として形成されている。そして、これら４つの側面４００２、４００２、４２０２、４２０２により第１本体１６の幅方向の位置決めが行なわれる。
また、１つの側壁４０の横部４０Ａの前方を向いた内面４００４と、残りの２つの側壁４２の各横部４２Ａの後方を向いた内面４２０４との間の間隔は、第１本体１６の長さよりも僅かに大きな寸法で形成されている。
【００１１】
前記１つの側壁４０に設けられた係合壁部４４は、横部４０Ａの幅方向中央で側面４００４の上端から載置面３８と平行して前方に突出しており、係合壁部４４は前記第１本体１６の基部１６Ａ側の凹部２４に係脱可能に設けられている。残りの２つの側壁４２にそれぞれ形成された係合壁部４６は、各縦部４２Ｂの側面４２０２の上端から載置面３８と平行して幅方向内方に突出しており、その前端は横部４２Ａに接続されている。これら係合壁部４６は第１本体１６の先部１６Ｂの両側面の凹部２６に係脱可能に設けられている。
【００１２】
前記載置面３８の後部の中央には、幅方向に間隔をおいて２つの欠部５０が設けられ、この欠部５０は前後方向に延在しその後部は横部４０Ａの内面４００４にわたって延在している。
また、両側の係合壁部４６の下面と、横部４２Ａの内面と、載置面３８の前端にわたってそれぞれ切り欠き５２が設けられ、この切り欠き５２は係合壁部４６の下方に位置しているため、係合壁部４６により隠され、外方から見えにくくなっている。
【００１３】
前記連動機構３７は、本実施の形態では、一対の充電端子３６に対応してそれぞれ設けられ、各連動機構３７は、筐体３０の内部に支持された導電性および弾性を有する単一の細長状部材５４によりそれぞれ構成されている。細長状部材５４として、本実施の形態では、断面が円形のばね鋼が用いられているが、断面が偏平な矩形(帯状のばね鋼材)や正方形のものなどを用いるなど任意である。
各細長状部材５４は、図４に示すように、筐体３０の内部で支持される部分５４０２と、前記支持される部分５４０２から互いにほぼ同じ方向にほぼ直線状に延在する第１延在部５４０４および第２延在部５４０６と、前記支持される部分５４０２から第１、第２延在部５４０４，５４０６とは反対の方向に延在する第３延在部５４０８とを有している。本実施の形態では、第３延在部５４０８はＵ字状に屈曲され、この第３延在部５４０８のＵ字状に屈曲された両端に前記部分５４０２が螺旋状に巻回され、この両端の螺旋状に巻回された部分５４０２からそれぞれ第１、第２延在部５４０４，５４０６が延在している。
【００１４】
前記螺旋状に巻回された部分５４０２に、筐体３０に突設されたピン５６が挿通され、これにより細長状部材５４は筐体３０の内部で揺動可能に支持される。なお、このピン５６は各細長状部材５４毎にそれぞれ設けてもよく、あるいは、単一のピン５６により２つの細長状部材５４を支持するようにしてもよい。
前記充電端子３６は第１延在部５４０４の端部で構成されている。そして、２つの細長状部材５４の各充電端子３６は、前記２つの欠部５０に臨ませてそれぞれ配設されている。
また、第２延在部５４０６の端部は、プリント配線基板３４の電源供給回路に接触する接触部５８として構成されている。そして、２つの細長状部材５４の各接触部５８は、プリント配線基板３４の下方に臨ませてそれぞれ配設されている。
また、第３延在部５４０８は、載置部３２により保持される携帯電話機１４に当接可能な当接部６０として構成されている。そして、２つの細長状部材５４の各当接部６０は、筐体３０の前部両側の切り欠き５２に臨ませてそれぞれ配設され、各当接部６０は係合壁部４６，４６の下方に位置して筐体３０の外方から隠されて見えにくくなるように配設されている。
【００１５】
そして、図１および図２に示すように、携帯電話機１４が載置部３２に保持されていない状態では、当接部６０の先端が側壁４２の横部４２Ａの内部の前面に当接し、当接部６０の部分が切り欠き５２から載置面３８上に位置し、充電端子３６寄りの第１延在部５４０４箇所がプリント配線基板３４の上面の前縁に当接し、これにより、充電端子３６が載置面３８よりも筐体３０の内部側に変位し、さらに、接触部５８がプリント配線基板３４の下方に位置し、充電端子３６とプリント配線基板３４の電源供給回路とが遮断されるように構成されている。
また、図３に示すように、係合壁部４４，４６，４６が第１本体１６の凹部２４、２６、２６に係合して第１本体１６が載置面３８に載置された状態では、載置面３８上に位置する当接部６０の部分が第１本体１６の部分(凹部２６の下方に位置する壁部２６０２)により変形(変位)され、これにより充電端子３６が欠部５０を通って携帯電話機１４の電池端子２２に接触し、また、接触部５８がプリント配線基板３４側に変位し、充電端子３６とプリント配線基板３４の電源供給回路とが接続され、携帯電話機１４が充電されるように構成されている。
【００１６】
このような本実施の形態によれば、携帯電話機１４を充電していない状態において、筐体３０の載置面３８上に充電端子３６がむき出しとなっていない。
したがって、充電端子３６によりその外観を阻害されることなく、良好なデザインの筐体３０、すなわち、良好なデザインの携帯電話機用卓上ホルダ１２を提供することができる。
特に、実施の形態のように、第１本体１６が載置部３２に載置された状態で第２本体１８が開かれるように構成された携帯電話機用卓上ホルダ１２では、上方を向いた平坦な載置面３８の表面積が大きくなり、従来のように充電端子３６が常にむき出しとなっていると極めて目立つため、良好なデザインの携帯電話機用卓上ホルダ１２を提供する上でより有利となる。
【００１７】
また、本実施の形態では、当接部６０を設けて、携帯電話機１４の載置部３２への載置と、載置部３２からの取り外しに連動して充電端子３６を変位させるように構成し、この当接部６０も係合壁部４６，４６の下方に位置し筐体３０の外方から隠されるようにしたため、良好なデザインの携帯電話機用卓上ホルダ１２を提供する上でより有利となる。
また、携帯電話機１４の載置部３２への載置と、載置部３２からの取り外しに連動して充電端子３６を変位させる連動機構３７の構成は種々考えられるが、実施の形態のように単一の細長状部材５４を用いれば、部品点数の削減化、構造の簡単化を図る上で有利となる。
【００１８】
なお、上記の実施の形態では、筐体３０の内部で細長状部材５４を支持するためにピン５６を用いた場合について説明したが、細長状部材５４を支持する方法は種々考えられ、本発明はピン５６を用いる構造に限定されない。
例えば、接触部５８を電源供給回路に接触させた状態でプリント配線基板３４に半田付けし、この接合された部分により細長状部材５４を支持するようにしてもよい。この場合には、接触部５８は常に図３に示す状態となり、充電端子３６は、ピン５６を用いた場合と同様に、携帯電話機１４が載置部３２に載置されていない状態では、充電端子３６が載置面３８よりも筐体３０の内部側に変位し、携帯電話機１４が載置部３２に載置された状態では、充電端子３６が欠部５０を通って携帯電話機１４の電池端子２２に接触する。
【００１９】
【発明の効果】
以上説明したように本発明の携帯電話機用卓上ホルダは、載置部に載置された携帯電話機により充電端子を筐体の表面側に変位させて携帯電話機の電池端子に接触させ、載置部から携帯電話機が外された状態で充電端子を筐体の内部側に没入させるように構成されている。
そのため、充電端子が載置部の表面から常に突出して携帯電話機用卓上ホルダのデザインを損なう不具合が解消され、デザインの自由度を高め、外観性を高めることができる携帯電話機用卓上ホルダを得ることが可能となる。

Since the surface area of the mounting surface 38 becomes large and the charging terminal 36 is always exposed as in the prior art, it is extremely conspicuous, which is more advantageous in providing the desktop holder 12 for a well-designed mobile phone.
[0017]
Further, in the present embodiment, the contact portion 60 is provided so that the charging terminal 36 is displaced in conjunction with the placement of the mobile phone 14 on the placement portion 32 and the removal from the placement portion 32. In addition, since the contact portion 60 is also located below the engagement wall portions 46 and 46 and is hidden from the outside of the housing 30, it is more advantageous in providing the desktop holder 12 for a well-designed mobile phone. It becomes.
In addition, various configurations of the interlocking mechanism 37 that displaces the charging terminal 36 in conjunction with the placement of the mobile phone 14 on the placement unit 32 and the removal from the placement unit 32 are possible, but as in the embodiment. The use of a single elongated member 54 is advantageous in reducing the number of parts and simplifying the structure.
[0018]
In the above embodiment, the case where the pin 56 is used to support the elongated member 54 inside the housing 30 has been described. However, various methods for supporting the elongated member 54 are conceivable, and the present invention is applied. Is not limited to the structure using the pin 56.
For example, the elongated member 54 may be supported by the soldered portion of the printed wiring board 34 in a state where the contact portion 58 is in contact with the power supply circuit. In this case, the contact portion 58 is always in the state shown in FIG. 3, and the charging terminal 36 is charged when the mobile phone 14 is not placed on the placement portion 32, as in the case where the pin 56 is used. When the terminal 36 is displaced from the mounting surface 38 to the inside of the housing 30 and the mobile phone 14 is mounted on the mounting portion 32, the charging terminal 36 passes through the notch 50 and the battery of the mobile phone 14. Contact terminal 22.
[0019]
