Description

本発明は、携帯電話,モバイル等の電子機器の枢着部に設けるヒンジ装置並びにこのヒンジ装置を用いた電子機器に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a hinge device provided at a pivotally mounted portion of an electronic device such as a mobile phone and a mobile, and an electronic device using the hinge device.

例えば従来の折り畳み式の携帯電話は、数字キーやファンクションキーを配列した操作部を下側となる本体部の上面側に設け、この操作部のキー操作等により所定の表示がなされる液晶パネルなどのディスプレイ部を上側となる重合部(蓋部)の伏面側(重合側)に設け、この本体部と重合部とをヒンジ装置を介して連結して、本体部と重合部とを二つ折り重合して操作部を重合部により隠蔽した折り畳み閉塞状態から、ヒンジ装置により重合部を起伏回動して略反転し、操作部とディスプレイ部とが露出した開放状態に切り替えできるように構成している。   For example, a conventional foldable mobile phone is provided with an operation unit on which the numeric keys and function keys are arranged on the upper surface side of the lower main unit, and a liquid crystal panel on which a predetermined display is made by the key operation of the operation unit. The display part is provided on the lower surface side (polymerization side) of the upper overlapping part (lid part), the main body part and the overlapping part are connected via a hinge device, and the main body part and the overlapping part are folded in half. From the folded closed state where the operation part is concealed by the superposition part, the overlapping part is swung up and down by the hinge device and reversed approximately, so that the operation part and the display part can be switched to the open state. Yes.

また、従来のこのような単に起伏回動する重合部で本体部の操作部を覆う電子機器においては、折り畳み重合してコンパクト化できるものの操作部を隠蔽した重合状態ではディスプレイ部も隠蔽してしまう構造となり、コンパクト化した状態での使用が制限されざるを得なく不便である場合も多い。   In addition, in the conventional electronic device that covers the operation part of the main body part with a superposition part that simply turns up and down, the display part is also concealed in a superposition state where the operation part is concealed although it can be folded and compactized. In many cases, the structure is inconvenient and the use in a compact state must be restricted.

また、コンパクト化のため重合した閉塞状態ではディスプレイ部は隠蔽され、使用時に重合部を開放回動して立ち起こした際にはその正面側にディスプレイ部が配置されるためディスプレイ部を見やすいが、人にディスプレイ部を見せずらいし、またカメラ部をディスプレイ部とは反対面に設けている場合、自身の顔を写してディスプレイ部に表示させる場合などは本体毎操作部も裏返し反転させなければならないため、写しづらいし、シャッター操作もしにくい。   In addition, the display part is concealed in the closed state that is overlapped for compactness, and the display part is placed on the front side when it is erected by opening and turning the overlapping part during use, so it is easy to see the display part, If it is difficult to show the display part to the person, and the camera part is provided on the opposite side of the display part, if you want to display your face on the display part, etc. This makes it difficult to shoot and shutter operation.

そのため、開放した重合部や開放途中の所定角度で更に自転回動により表裏反転回動できるように構成し、不使用時あるいはキー操作を不要にして折り畳んだ際においても、言い換えるとたとえディスプレイ部を設けた重合部を本体部に重合して操作部を隠蔽したコンパクト化状態においても、従来通りディスプレイ部を伏面側にして操作部と共に隠蔽することも、逆に自転回動反転させてディスプレイ部が上側に配設され、コンパクト化した閉塞状態でもディスプレイ部を視認したり、機能させたりすることが可能となるようにし、またカメラ使用に際しては重合部を起こした所定角度で反転可能にしたものも提案されている。   Therefore, it is configured so that it can be turned upside down by rotating it at a predetermined angle in the middle of opening or at a predetermined angle during opening, and in other words even when it is folded when not in use or requiring no key operation, Even in the compacted state where the provided overlapping part is superposed on the main body part and the operation part is concealed, it can be concealed with the operation part with the display part facing down as before. Is arranged on the upper side, so that the display part can be seen and functioned even in a compact closed state, and can be reversed at a predetermined angle where the overlapping part is raised when using the camera. Has also been proposed.

このようなヒンジ装置において、開閉動作や自転回動動作に支障をきたすことなく、配線するために、ヒンジ軸方向に対する周方向に配線を巻回する配線巻回部を設け、この配線巻回部に第一部材(本体部)と第二部材(重合部)との回路部を電気接続するためのフレキシブルな帯板状の配線を巻回配設して、回動動作に支障が生じないようにしている。   In such a hinge device, a wiring winding part is provided for winding the wiring in a circumferential direction with respect to the hinge axis direction in order to perform wiring without hindering the opening / closing operation and the rotation-rotating operation. A flexible strip-shaped wiring for electrically connecting the circuit part of the first member (main body part) and the second member (overlapping part) is wound around so as not to hinder the turning operation. I have to.

しかし、単に配線を巻回しただけでは、正逆回動によってこの配線にズレが生じて、回動がスムーズに行なえなくなったり、配線が軸部に接触する為配線自体に支障を生じるおそれがある。   However, if the wire is simply wound, the wire may be displaced due to forward / reverse rotation, and the rotation may not be performed smoothly, or the wire may be in contact with the shaft portion, thereby causing trouble in the wire itself. .

また、一旦ヒンジ装置を組み付けてしまえば、前記のような問題が生じにくいとしても、配線を巻回した組み付け前のヒンジ装置を梱包したり、搬送している間に、即ち、枢着部にヒンジ装置を組み付けるまでの間に、巻回配線が必要以上に緩んだり、組み付け時に接続するフリー接続端があばれて巻き外れたり緩んだりすることがある。   In addition, once the hinge device is assembled, even if the above-described problems are unlikely to occur, the hinge device before the assembly around which the wiring is wound is packed or transported, that is, at the pivot portion. Before the hinge device is assembled, the winding wiring may be loosened more than necessary, or the free connection end to be connected at the time of assembly may be unrolled or loosened.

そのため、このヒンジ装置を組み付ける間、配線を止着テープなどで仮止めておくことも試みられているが、配線自体に損傷を与えかねないし、またこれを防止するために仮止テープ位置には十分な注意が必要となる。また、巻回部自体を仮保持することは難しく、それ故巻き外れたり緩んだりした場合は組み付け時に改めて配線を適正に巻き直したり、整えたりしなければならず、組み付け作業が能率良くスピーディーに行なえない問題もあった。   For this reason, it has been attempted to temporarily fix the wiring with a fastening tape or the like while the hinge device is assembled. However, the wiring itself may be damaged. Sufficient attention is required. In addition, it is difficult to temporarily hold the winding part itself. Therefore, if it is unwound or loosened, it must be rewinded and adjusted properly at the time of assembly, and the assembly work can be performed efficiently and speedily. There was also a problem that could not be done.

本発明は、このような問題を解決し、ヒンジ装置に巻き付け一体化する配線をヒンジ装置に位置決め保持でき、また位置決め保持して巻回配設できるため、梱包や搬送も容易に行なえ、次工程の組み付け作業が能率良くスピーディーに行なえ、また巻き付け一体化が容易に行え、また例えば回動軸部を重合部の回動と共に正逆回動させても回動がスムーズに行なえ配線に支障が生じず耐久性が著しく向上し、量産性に秀れ、品質管理も良好となる極めて画期的なヒンジ装置並びにヒンジ装置を用いた電子機器を提供することを目的としている。 The present invention solves such a problem, and the wiring that is wound around and integrated with the hinge device can be positioned and held in the hinge device, and can be positioned and held and wound, so that it can be easily packed and transported. hinder the work performed to efficiently quickly, also wrapped integrated easily line picture, also for example be allowed to forward or reverse rotation with the rotation of the overlapping portions of the rotation shaft portion carried rotation is smoothly interconnect assembly of It is an object of the present invention to provide an extremely innovative hinge device and an electronic device using the hinge device, in which the durability is remarkably improved, the mass productivity is excellent, and the quality control is also good.

本発明の具体的な実施例について図面に基づいて説明する。   Specific embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

本実施例は、以下の構成に限られるものではないが、重合コンパクト化の図れる以下の構成の携帯電話並びに以下の構成の携帯電話に用いるヒンジ装置に本発明を適用したもので、回路基板,電源等の電子部品をケースに内装した板状の本体部2(第一部材2)の上面側に数字キーやファンクションキーなどを配列したキーボード機能を果たす操作部1を設け、この本体部2に重合して操作部1を覆う略同形の板状の重合部4(第二部材4)を起伏回動自在にヒンジ装置Hにより軸着連結した構成としている。   The present embodiment is not limited to the following configuration, but the present invention is applied to a mobile phone having the following configuration that can be made compact in size and a hinge device used for the mobile phone having the following configuration. An operation unit 1 having a keyboard function in which numeric keys and function keys are arranged is provided on the upper surface side of a plate-shaped main body 2 (first member 2) in which electronic parts such as a power source are mounted in a case. A substantially overlapping plate-like overlapping portion 4 (second member 4) that overlaps and covers the operation portion 1 is configured to be pivotally connected by a hinge device H so as to be able to swing up and down.

この重合部4の下面側(伏面)には予め設定した画面や前記操作部1の操作や着信等により所定の表示がなされる液晶パネルなどのディスプレイ部3を設けている。   A display unit 3 such as a liquid crystal panel on which a predetermined display is made or a predetermined display is made by the operation of the operation unit 1 or an incoming call is provided on the lower surface side (lower surface) of the overlapping unit 4.

この本体部2と重合部4との連結は、双方の端部同志の重合部分を、幅方向に配される起伏回動軸部9と、これと直交する方向に配される自転回動軸部16を有する二軸のヒンジ装置Hにより連結し、従来通り重合部4は起伏回動自在となり、且つ左右方向に180度自転回動自在となり、開放状態として180度反転回動することで、重合部4の表裏向きを切り替えでき、また互いに重合した閉塞状態における重合部4の伏面と露出面とを反転切り替えできるように構成している。   The connection between the main body portion 2 and the overlapping portion 4 is made by connecting the overlapping portions of both end portions to the undulating rotation shaft portion 9 arranged in the width direction and the rotation turning shaft arranged in the direction orthogonal thereto. It is connected by a biaxial hinge device H having a part 16, and the overlapping part 4 can be rotated up and down as usual, and can rotate and rotate 180 degrees in the left and right direction, and can be rotated and rotated 180 degrees as an open state. The front and back directions of the overlapping portion 4 can be switched, and the concealed surface and the exposed surface of the overlapping portion 4 in the closed state where they are overlapped with each other can be reversed and switched.

従って、コンパクト化された重合状態で、従来通り不使用時に操作部1と共にディスプレイ部3を重合隠蔽することもできるが、簡単な反転操作でディスプレイ部3を重合部4の上面側に配されるように切り替えできるため、操作部1は操作できないにしてもディスプレイ部3を視認することができ、また、例えば予め操作部1により設定するなどした日付やカレンダーを表示させたり、またデータ通信表示(携帯電話では例えば着信表示など)を行うようにしたりすれば、ディスプレイ部3は視認できるため様々な使用が可能となり、使用用途が広がったり、機能性が向上し、非常に便利となり実用性(商品価値)が高まる。 Therefore, in the compacted polymerization state, the display unit 3 can be concealed and hidden together with the operation unit 1 when not in use, but the display unit 3 is arranged on the upper surface side of the polymerization unit 4 by a simple inversion operation. Therefore, even if the operation unit 1 cannot be operated, the display unit 3 can be visually recognized. For example, a date or calendar set in advance by the operation unit 1 can be displayed, or a data communication display ( if the mobile phone or the Migihitsuji rows, for example, Caller etc.), a display unit 3 enables various uses for visible, or spread use, and improved functionality, becomes very useful utility (Commercial value) increases.
