Description

  The present invention relates to a wireless communication apparatus having a crime prevention function.

  In recent years, there have been many incidents where children and women are exposed to danger, and crime prevention devices are in the spotlight to avoid such incidents. However, a dedicated crime prevention device that occupies a certain volume lacks versatility and may not be useful in an emergency. Therefore, the mounting of a crime prevention function in a wireless communication device represented by a mobile phone or a PHS (Personal Handy phone System) that is considered to be owned by most individuals is now attracting attention.

  As a security function mounted on the wireless communication device, for example, a buzzer sound (warning sound) can be obtained by removing a strap dedicated to the security function provided in the wireless communication device or performing a predetermined key operation. The most widely known wireless communication apparatus is configured to generate the above-described problem and functions as a security buzzer. According to this, since a function as a security buzzer is installed in a radio communication device that is often carried by a user at all times, it is not necessary to carry a security buzzer separately, and the security function can be used immediately in an emergency. it can.

  In addition, as a wireless communication device equipped with another crime prevention function, a communication device is disclosed that automatically receives position information when a call operation or a call operation ends and transmits the received position information to a predetermined destination ( For example, Patent Document 1). According to this, when a user such as a child is attacked by a suspicious person, a call operation or a call operation to a predetermined destination (communication terminal) such as a parent is performed from the possessed communication terminal, and the user is positioned at the predetermined destination. It is said that it is possible to notify information reliably.

  Further, as a wireless communication device equipped with another crime prevention function, when a predetermined key is operated, a power-off state and a power-on state that acquires position information and transmits the acquired position information to a predetermined destination There has been disclosed a communication device that is repeatedly configured to be in a pseudo power-off state (for example, Patent Document 2). When such a communication device receives information with a predetermined flag when it is in the power-on state in the pseudo power-off state, it shifts from the pseudo power-off state to the normal power-on state. According to this, since a communication terminal that is in a pseudo power-off state is turned on by receiving information with a predetermined flag from another communication terminal, the mobile terminal is remotely operated from the other communication terminal. It is possible to do.

  However, in the wireless communication device functioning as the above-described crime prevention buzzer, it is easy for a suspicious person who has noticed that the buzzer sounded to try to remove the battery pack of the wireless communication device in order to stop the buzzer sound. is expected. In the communication devices described in Patent Literature 1 and Patent Literature 2 described above, a suspicious person may try to remove the battery pack in order to stop the function of the communication device. Therefore, in the case of the above-described wireless communication device (communication device), the power supply of the wireless communication device is cut off if the battery pack is removed by a suspicious person even though it has a crime prevention function. For this reason, there has been a problem that the crime prevention function cannot be fully exhibited when an emergency occurs.

Therefore, in order to solve such a problem, a secondary battery, a battery storage part for storing the secondary battery, a cover that covers the battery storage part, and an alarm generation means for generating an alarm sound or the like by a predetermined operation , And a configuration in which such a secondary battery cannot be easily removed is disclosed (for example, Patent Documents 3, 4 and 5). With the mobile phones described in Patent Documents 3, 4, and 5, it is difficult for a suspicious person to remove the battery pack from the mobile phone (wireless communication device). Therefore, it is possible to reduce the occurrence of a situation where the power source of the wireless communication device is cut off.

  However, when the battery pack cannot be removed from the wireless communication device as in the mobile phones (wireless communication devices) described in Patent Documents 3, 4 and 5, the suspicious person destroys the wireless communication device. There is a possibility of trying to cut off the power supply, and there is a risk of leaving the wireless communication device where the security buzzer continues to ring in the field. When these situations occur, the effect of the crime prevention function mounted on the wireless communication device is drastically reduced as in the case where the battery pack is removed.

  In addition, in the cellular phones (wireless communication devices) described in Patent Documents 3, 4 and 5, it is difficult for a suspicious person to remove the battery pack from the cellular phone. This also means that it becomes difficult to remove the battery pack. Therefore, for example, a user who carries a spare battery pack with a large amount of power consumption, such as frequently using a wireless communication device, cannot easily replace the battery pack himself. Therefore, for a user who desires to replace the battery pack himself, the above mobile phone is not convenient.

  In view of such problems, the present invention can be easily replaced by the user himself / herself by devising the configuration of the battery to be mounted, and continues to operate even if the battery is removed by a suspicious person.

It is good to transmit to either one or both of a predetermined contact terminal or a server.

  In order to solve the above problems, another typical configuration of a wireless communication apparatus according to the present invention is a wireless communication apparatus that performs wireless communication with a base station, and generates sound, light, or vibration by a predetermined input. A controller that activates the crime prevention function according to the above, a first battery that is invisible inside the wireless communication device, and a secondary battery or a primary battery that supplies power for operating the wireless communication device. A dummy battery that is possible, and the control unit continues the crime prevention function by supplying power from the first battery even if the dummy battery is detached while the crime prevention function is executed. The second battery, which has substantially the same shape as the dummy battery, can be replaced with the dummy battery and can supply power to the wireless communication device, and the power for operating the wireless communication device is the first battery and the second battery. Cut from And a circuit that supplies power to the first battery when the second battery is detached and the security function is activated while the second battery is detached. The security function is canceled when the controlled second battery or dummy battery is mounted again.

The wireless communication device may further include an imaging unit that captures an image when the second battery or the dummy battery is detached when the wireless communication device is in a security mode for operating a security function.

The wireless communication device may start wireless communication with a predetermined contact terminal when the second battery or the dummy battery is detached when the wireless communication device is in a security mode for operating a security function.

The wireless communication device further includes a GPS receiver that derives position information of the wireless communication device, and when the second battery or the dummy battery is detached when the wireless communication device is in a security mode in which the security function is activated. The location information may be transmitted to one or both of a predetermined contact terminal and server.

  Each of the second battery and the dummy battery has an ID resistance indicating a different resistance value, and the wireless communication device is mounted with either the second battery or the dummy battery by measuring the value of the ID resistance. It is good to judge whether it is a state to be released or both are to be removed.

(Wireless communication system 100)
FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram showing a schematic connection relationship of the wireless communication system 100. The wireless communication system 100 includes a wireless communication device 110, a base station 120 that establishes wireless communication with the wireless communication device 110, and an Ethernet (registered trademark), ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) line connected to the base station 120. , A communication network 130 constituted by the Internet, a dedicated line, etc., a relay server 140 that relays each base station 120 through the communication network 130, and a contact terminal 150. Here, in the present embodiment, a mobile phone owned by a contact user is illustrated as a communication device serving as the contact terminal 150. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the electronic device, landline phone, personal computer, and the like described above are not limited thereto. It is also possible to use.

  In the wireless communication system 100, the wireless communication device 110 executes a call or communication with another wireless communication device through wireless communication with the base station 120, and is connected to each service provider via the communication network 130. Various services can be received from a web server (not shown). In particular, in the present embodiment, communication with the contact terminal 150 registered in the wireless communication device is established via the wireless communication system 100, and its critical state is transmitted to the contact terminal 150. It becomes possible. The contact user who has the contact terminal 150 can take an early safety measure that protects the user who has the wireless communication device 110 in response to the transmission matter. Hereinafter, a specific configuration of the wireless communication device 110 will be described in detail.

(Wireless communication device 110)
FIG. 2 is a functional block diagram illustrating a hardware configuration of the wireless communication apparatus 110, and FIG. 3 is a perspective view illustrating an appearance of the wireless communication apparatus 110. 3A is a front perspective view, and FIG. 3B is a rear perspective view. In the present embodiment, a straight-type mobile phone is illustrated as the wireless communication apparatus 110, but the present invention is not limited to this, and a folding-type or slide-type mobile phone may be used.

  The wireless communication device 110 includes a control unit 202, a display unit 204, an audio input unit 206, an audio output unit 208, a light emitting unit 210, a vibration output unit 212, an imaging unit 214, an operation unit 216, 1 battery 220, battery mounting part 230, second battery 240 or dummy battery 250, battery cover 260, resistance measurement part 270, battery cover detection part 272, capacitor 274, first switch 276, 2 switch 278, attachment / detachment determination unit 280, detection unit 282, memory 284, wireless communication unit 288, and GPS reception unit 290.

  The control unit 202 manages and controls the functions of the entire wireless communication device 110 using a semiconductor integrated circuit including a central processing unit (CPU), and uses a program in the memory 284 to make a call function, mail transmission / reception function, imaging function, and music playback. It also performs functions and TV viewing functions.

  The display unit 204 includes a liquid crystal display (LCD), an EL (Electro Luminescence), a PDP (Plasma Display Panel), and the like. The display unit 204 can display information for a user such as Web content, GUI (Graphical User Interface) of an application stored in the memory 284 or provided from the relay server 140 via the communication network 130. .

  The voice input unit 206 includes voice recognition means such as a microphone, and converts a user voice input during a call into an electrical signal that can be processed in the wireless communication device 110.

  When the own device (the wireless communication device 110) is set in the crime prevention mode (or when the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 described later determines that the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is detached from the own device), the voice input unit 206 Voice input is good. Thereby, based on the input voice, it is possible to determine the situation where the user is placed and to identify a suspicious person.

  The audio output unit 208 is constituted by a speaker, and converts the voice signal of the other party received by the wireless communication device 110 into voice and outputs it. In addition, a ring tone, an operation sound of the operation unit 216, an alarm sound, and the like can be output.

  When the detection unit 282 described later detects a critical situation of the user based on the user's input and the operation mode of the wireless communication device 110 is set to a security mode that activates the security function, the audio output unit 208 It is good to output a warning sound. Thereby, the critical situation of the user can be notified to surrounding people and the suspicious person can be threatened.

  The light emitting unit 210 includes an LED (Light Emitting Diode), an EL light emitter, a sub LCD, and other electronic components that can be illuminated. As a result, for example, when voice output is not possible, it is possible to recognize an incoming call or mail reception by the light emission of the light emitting unit.

  The vibration output unit 212 includes an electric motor (not shown) and a rigid body (not shown) such as a metal provided on a rotating shaft (not shown) of the electric motor and having an eccentric center of gravity, and rotates the rigid body. Thus, vibration vibration can be applied to the wireless communication device 110. That is, the vibration output unit 212 is a vibrator. This makes it possible to recognize incoming calls, e-mails, and alarms where voice output is not possible, such as trains and conferences.

  The imaging unit 214 is configured by a video element such as a charge coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS), and can thereby capture an image (a still image or a moving image).

  When the own device (the wireless communication device 110) is set in the crime prevention mode (or when the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 described later determines that the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is detached from the own device), the imaging unit 214 Take a picture. As a result, the captured image can be used to identify the suspicious person.

  In addition, when the battery lid detection unit 272 (described later) detects that the battery lid 260 has been removed from the wireless communication device 110, the imaging unit 214 causes the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 to remove the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 from its own device. Even when it is not determined that the images have been released, an image may be taken. As a result, when the suspicious person removes the battery cover 260 in order to remove the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250, the imaging unit 214 starts taking an image. Therefore, it is possible to take a picture of the face of a suspicious person who removes the battery cover 260 and then tries to remove the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250. Therefore, it is possible to photograph the suspicious person's face more reliably.

  The operation unit 216 includes a plurality of movable operation keys (hardware keys) such as a keyboard, a cross key, and a joystick, and accepts a user operation input. In the present embodiment, a detection unit 282 described later is provided to detect a critical situation of the user. However, for example, the operation unit 216 may be the detection unit 282 and a predetermined key operation by the user may be a user input.

  The first battery 220 is invisible inside the wireless communication device 110 and supplies power for operating the wireless communication device 110. As a result, even if a suspicious person removes the second battery 240 from the wireless communication device 110, power can be supplied from the first battery 220. Therefore, since the power is not cut off even after the second battery 240 is removed, the wireless communication device 110 can continue to operate. Moreover, since it is incorporated invisible, it can be avoided that a suspicious person notices the presence of the first battery 220.

  The battery mounting unit 230 is mounted with either a second battery 240 or a dummy battery 250 described later. Thereby, any one of them can be attached to the wireless communication apparatus 110. For this reason, the user can select one of these as the battery pack to be mounted on his / her wireless communication device 110. Therefore, a user who consumes a large amount of power and desires to supply a large amount of power, such as frequently using the wireless communication device 110, may select the second battery 240 as a member to be mounted on the battery mounting unit 230. Thereby, since electric power can be obtained not only from the first battery 220 but also from the second battery 240, it is possible to increase the amount of power supplied to the wireless communication device 110 and extend the usage time. Moreover, since the second battery 240 can be carried together with the wireless communication device 110 by attaching the second battery 240 to the battery attachment unit 230, it is possible to prevent forgetting to carry a spare battery pack. .

  Furthermore, the second battery 240 can be easily attached to and detached from the battery mounting portion, and no special tool or the like is required for the attaching / detaching work. Therefore, the user's replacement work is not hindered, and convenience is not lowered.

  A user who does not need so much power supply may select the dummy battery 250 as a member to be attached to the battery attachment unit 230. Thereby, the cost required for the battery pack of the wireless communication apparatus 110 can be reduced.

  The second battery 240 is a secondary battery that can be attached to and detached from the wireless communication device 110, that is, the battery mounting unit 230, and supplies power for operating the wireless communication device 110. The second battery 240 has a power supply terminal for supplying power to the wireless communication device 110. Since the second battery 240 can be easily attached to and detached from the battery mounting portion 230 without requiring a special tool, the replacement work by the user is not hindered, and convenience is not lowered. In addition, as the 2nd battery 240, a lithium ion battery, a nickel metal hydride battery, etc. can be used suitably.

  The second battery 240 has an ID resistor 240a. Thereby, the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 described later can identify that the member mounted on the battery mounting unit 230 is the second battery 240.

  The dummy battery 250 is a model member that can be attached to and detached from the wireless communication device 110 (battery mounting unit 230) and that does not supply power for operating the wireless communication device 110. The dummy battery 250 has a pseudo power supply terminal having substantially the same shape as the power supply terminal of the second battery 240. The dummy battery 250 may have substantially the same shape as the second battery 240 or may have substantially the same weight as the second battery 240.

  The dummy battery 250 has an ID resistor 250a. Thereby, the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 described later can identify that the member mounted on the battery mounting unit 230 is the dummy battery 250.

  The ID resistor 240a and the ID resistor 250a are configured to have different resistance values. Accordingly, the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 can reliably identify these values based on the resistance values measured by the resistance measurement unit 270.

  The battery lid 260 is a lid for covering the second battery 240 and the dummy battery 250 attached to the wireless communication device 110. The battery lid 260 can be removed from the wireless communication device 110 by sliding in the direction of the white arrow. The battery lid 260 may adopt any opening method, and may be slid in either the vertical, horizontal, left, or right direction as long as it is a slide type, or may be an open / close type using any edge as a hinge. Alternatively, the battery lid 260 may be opened while maintaining a horizontal state.

  In the present embodiment, the battery lid 260 is provided on the surface on which the imaging unit 214 is disposed (see FIG. 3B). This makes it possible to reliably photograph the face of a suspicious person who is trying to remove the battery lid 260, the second battery 240, or the dummy battery 250.

  The resistance measurement unit 270 measures a resistance value (resistance value) provided in the wireless communication device 110. As a result, the attachment / detachment determination unit 280, which will be described later, uses this value to determine whether or not either the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is attached to the own device (battery attachment unit 230) and attach to the own device. Whether the battery pack (member) being used is the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250, that is, whether the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is attached to or detached from the wireless communication device 110 easily and reliably. It becomes possible to do.

  The battery lid detection unit 272 detects that the battery lid 260 has been removed from the wireless communication device 110. Accordingly, as described above, the imaging unit 214 can start capturing an image when the battery lid 260 is removed.

  The capacitor 274 is built in the wireless communication device 110 and temporarily stores electricity. Accordingly, when the first switch 276 and the second switch 278 described later are switched, the power stored in the capacitor 274 can be supplied to the wireless communication device 110. Therefore, it is possible to avoid an instantaneous power interruption at the time of switch switching.

  The first switch 276 activates a circuit for supplying power to the wireless communication device 110 from the first battery 220. The first switch 276 is turned on when power is supplied from the first battery 220, and is turned off when power is supplied from the second battery 240.

  The second switch 278 and a circuit for supplying power to the wireless communication device 110 from the second battery 240 are activated. The second switch 278 is turned off when power is supplied from the first battery 220, and is turned on when power is supplied from the second battery 240.

  As described above, by switching the first switch 276 and the second switch 278, it is possible to supply power to the wireless communication apparatus 110 from either the first battery 220 or the second battery 240. Accordingly, when the suspicious person removes the second battery 240 from the wireless communication device 110, the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines that the second battery 240 is not attached to the wireless communication device 110, and the first battery 220 receives power. Supplied. Therefore, even after the second battery 240 is removed, the power is not cut off, the wireless communication device 110 can continue to operate, and the crime prevention function can be fully exhibited.

  The attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines whether the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is attached to or detached from the wireless communication device 110 using the resistance value measured by the resistance measurement unit 270. In the present embodiment, the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines whether the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is attached or detached using the resistance value measured by the resistance measurement unit 270. However, the present invention is not limited to this. Not what you want. For this determination, other elements that change due to the attachment or detachment of the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 may be used. For example, a current or voltage in the circuit can be used instead of the resistor.

  When the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines that the second battery 240 is attached to the wireless communication device 110, power for operating the wireless communication device 110 is preferentially supplied from the second battery 240, and It may be supplied from the first battery 220 after the power stored in the two batteries 240 is consumed. Thereby, electric power is preferentially supplied from the second battery 240, and the electric power stored in the first battery 220 can be kept in the meantime. Therefore, when the second battery 240 is removed from the first battery 220 by the suspicious person, a large amount of electric power is supplied to the wireless communication device 110 and the wireless communication is performed after the second battery 240 is removed by the suspicious person. It is possible to lengthen the time during which the device 110 continues to operate.

  If the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines that the second battery 240 is not attached to the wireless communication device 110, power for operating the wireless communication device 110 is supplied from the first battery 220. Accordingly, the wireless communication device 110 can continue to operate even when the second battery 240 is removed by a suspicious person, and can sufficiently perform the crime prevention function installed in the device itself. For this reason, it can be expected that the suspicious person gives up stopping the crime prevention function and leaves from the spot. Further, even when the attached battery pack is the dummy battery 250, the wireless communication device 110 can operate.

  Further, when the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines that the second battery 240 is attached to the wireless communication device 110, the first battery 220 is preferentially charged, and after the charging of the first battery 220 is finished, the second battery The battery 240 may be charged. As a result, both the first battery 220 and the second battery can be charged. Further, when both the first battery 220 and the second battery 240 cannot be fully charged, such as when there is not enough time, more power can be charged in the first battery 220. Therefore, it is possible to secure a large amount of power for the wireless communication device 110 to continue operating after the suspicious person removes the second battery 240.

  Further, when the wireless communication device 110 is in the security mode, if the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines that the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is attached to the wireless communication device 110, the control unit 202 enters the security mode. It is good to cancel the setting. As a result, when a user accidentally removes the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250, or when the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is removed regardless of the user's intention, If the user does not remove the two batteries 240 or the dummy battery 250, the user attaches the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 to the wireless communication device 110 again to release the crime prevention mode, and the normal mode (normal Operation state). Therefore, the user can comfortably use the wireless communication device 110 again.

  In addition to the above case, when the user regains the wireless communication device 110 taken by the suspicious person, the user re-attaches the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 to the wireless communication device 110 so that the wireless communication device 110 110 is a normal mode. Therefore, the wireless communication device 110 can be used immediately, and it is possible to immediately report to the police etc. and request rescue.

  The detection unit 282 detects user input. Thereby, based on this detection, the control unit 202 can set the operation mode of the wireless communication device 110 to a security mode in which the security function of the wireless communication device 110 is activated. Therefore, when the user falls into a critical situation, the crime prevention function of the wireless communication device 110 can be reliably activated.

  In this embodiment, as the crime prevention function in the crime prevention mode, the voice output unit 208 outputs a warning sound (voice output) as described above. However, the present invention is not limited to this and is provided in the wireless communication device 110. Other members that are used may function.

  In the present embodiment, the detection unit 282 is a pin plug 282a (pin plug switch). When the user pulls the pin plug 282a and the pin plug 282a is detached from the wireless communication apparatus 110, the detection unit 282 detects the user's input. Therefore, the user input in the present embodiment is that the user removes the pin plug 282 a from the wireless communication device 110. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the user input may be an input of a predetermined key operation of the operation unit 216 as described above. For example, a separate switch is provided outside the housing of the wireless communication device 110, and the switch It may be pressed.

  The memory 284 includes a ROM, a RAM, an EEPROM, a nonvolatile RAM, a flash memory, an HDD, and the like, and stores a program processed by the control unit 202, communication data, and the like. The 284 can store the sound input by the sound output unit 208 and the image captured by the image capturing unit 214 in the crime prevention mode. In the present embodiment, the memory 284 also functions as the contact address registration unit 286.

  The contact registration unit 286 registers a communication device other than the wireless communication device 110 as the contact terminal 150. As a result, wireless communication with the contact terminal 150 via the base station 120 by the wireless communication unit 288, which will be described later, and transmission of position information to the contact terminal 150 by the transmission unit 292 can be performed. Therefore, the user of the contact terminal 150 can grasp the status of the user of the wireless communication device 110 and can take measures to rescue the user of the wireless communication device 110 as soon as possible.

  The wireless communication unit 288 establishes wireless communication with the base station 120 through a wireless communication method such as CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) or WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access), and performs voice communication with a communication partner or a Web server. Perform data communication.

  When the wireless communication device 110 is set in the security mode (or when the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines that the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is detached from its own device), the wireless communication unit 288 passes the base station 120. The wireless communication with the contact terminal 150 may be started. More preferably, in the wireless communication, either one or both of the voice input by the voice input unit 206 and the image shot by the imaging unit 214 may be transmitted to the contact terminal 150. As a result, when the user of the wireless communication apparatus 110 falls into a critical situation, the input voice or captured image is transmitted to the contact terminal 150. Therefore, the user of the contact terminal 150 can grasp the situation where the user of the wireless communication device 110 is placed from the transmitted voice and image, and can take a corresponding action.

  For example, when the user of the wireless communication device 110 is a child, the parent wireless communication device may be registered as the contact terminal 150. As a result, when the child is attacked by a suspicious person and the wireless communication device 110 is set in the crime prevention mode (or when the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 of the child wireless communication device 110 is removed) The photographed image is transmitted to the parent wireless communication device (contact terminal 150). Therefore, the parent can determine the situation of the child based on the transmitted voice and image, and can take measures to ensure the safety of the child.

  The wireless communication with the contact terminal 150 may be a normal voice call transmission (calling) to the contact terminal 150, or an electronic mail transmission or a videophone call (calling) to the contact terminal 150. Etc.

  In the present embodiment, the wireless communication unit 288 also functions as a transmission unit. The transmission unit 292 transmits the position of the wireless communication device 110 derived by the GPS reception unit 290 described later.

  When the wireless communication device 110 is set in the crime prevention mode (or when the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines that the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is detached from its own device), the transmission unit 292 is derived by the GPS reception unit 290. The position of the wireless communication device 110 may be transmitted to one or both of the contact terminal 150 and the server (relay server 140). Thereby, if the transmission part 292 transmits the position of the said radio | wireless communication apparatus 110 to the contact terminal 150, the user of the contact terminal 150 can grasp | ascertain the position directly. Further, if the transmission unit 292 transmits the position of the wireless communication device 110 to the server, the user of the contact terminal 150 can grasp the position by performing communication connection to the server. Therefore, in any case, the user of the contact terminal 150 can grasp the position of the wireless communication device 110.

  The GPS receiving unit 290 receives a signal from the GPS satellite 160 and derives the position of the wireless communication device 110 using the signal.

  When the wireless communication device 110 is set in the crime prevention mode (or when the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines that the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is detached from its own device), the GPS reception unit 290 determines that the wireless communication device 110 It is good to derive the position of. As a result, the transmission unit 292 (wireless communication unit 288) can transmit the position of the own device to the contact terminal 150 or the server.

  As described above, the wireless communication apparatus 110 according to the present embodiment includes the first battery 220 that is invisible inside, can be mounted with the second battery 240, so-called battery pack or dummy battery 250, and is attached or detached. The unit 280 determines whether the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is attached to or detached from the wireless communication device 110. Even if the suspicious person removes the second battery 240 from the wireless communication device 110, the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 does not attach the second battery 240 to the wireless communication device 110, that is, the second battery 240 is detached. Power is supplied from the first battery 220 to the wireless communication device 110. Thereby, since the power is not cut off even after the second battery 240 is removed, the wireless communication device can continue to operate. Therefore, even if the suspicious person removes the second battery 240 from the wireless communication device 110 to stop the crime prevention function, the crime prevention function such as the output of a warning sound continues.

  Usually, the suspicious person thinks that the crime prevention function is stopped by removing the second battery 240 that seems to be a power supply source. Under such circumstances, the crime prevention function continues despite the removal of the second battery 240, so that the suspicious person is surprised and may give up stopping the crime prevention function and escape from the spot. In this way, the possibility of avoiding crime can be generated. In addition, since the crime prevention mode continues even after the second battery is removed, it is possible to prompt attention to the surroundings for a longer period of time, so that the possibility of help can be improved.

  In addition, since the wireless communication device 110 can continue to operate even after the second battery 240 is removed, the wireless communication device 110 such as the crime prevention mode and the power supply pseudo-disconnection mode is mainly used, that is, active crime prevention. In addition to the function, a person other than the user of the wireless communication apparatus 110 is the main body, that is, a passive crime prevention function can be exhibited. For example, it is possible to use a service or the like that searches for the position of the wireless communication device 110 that has become widespread in recent years using another communication device.

  FIG. 4 is a circuit diagram illustrating a configuration of an electric circuit of the wireless communication device 110. FIG. 4A shows a state in which neither the second battery 240 nor the dummy battery 250 is attached. FIG. 4B shows a state where the second battery 240 is attached. FIG. 4C shows a state in which the dummy battery 250 is attached. In FIG. 4, the flow of electricity in the circuit of the wireless communication device 110 is indicated by arrows. Explanation of elements not directly related to the present invention is omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 4A, when neither the second battery 240 nor the dummy battery 250 is attached to the wireless communication device 110, the battery attachment portion side positive power supply terminal 232 that is the power supply terminal of the battery attachment portion 230. The battery-side power supply terminal is not connected to any of the battery-attached-part-side negative power-feed terminal 234 and the battery-attached-part-side ID terminal 236. When the first switch 276 is turned on and the second switch 278 is turned off by the control unit 202, power is supplied from the first battery 220.

  As shown in FIG. 4B, when the second battery 240 is attached to the wireless communication device 110, the second battery side plus power supply terminal 242 and the second battery side, which are power supply terminals of the second battery 240, are provided. The negative power supply terminal 246 and the second battery side ID terminal 248 are connected to the corresponding power supply terminals of the battery mounting portion 230. When the second switch 278 is turned on and the first switch 276 is turned off by the control unit 202, power is supplied from the second battery 240.

  As shown in FIG. 4C, when the dummy battery 250 is attached to the wireless communication apparatus 110, the dummy battery side plus pseudo power supply terminal 252, dummy battery side minus pseudo power supply, which are the dummy power supply terminals of the dummy battery 250. The power supply terminal 254 and the dummy battery side ID terminal 256 are connected to the corresponding power supply terminals of the battery mounting portion 230. When the first switch 276 is turned on and the second switch 278 is turned off by the control unit 202, power is supplied from the first battery 220.

  Here, focusing on the resistance in the circuit shown in FIG. 4, a main body resistor 300 is provided in the circuit. The second battery 240 is provided with an ID resistor 240a, and the dummy battery 250 is provided with an ID resistor 250a. Therefore, the resistance in the circuit shown in FIG. 4A is only the main body resistor 300, and the resistance in the circuit shown in FIG. 4B is the main body resistor 300 and the ID resistor 240a. Further, the resistors in the circuit shown in FIG. 4C are the main body resistor 300 and the ID resistor 250a. As a result, the resistance measuring unit 270 measures the resistance value of the circuit, so that the attachment / detachment determining unit 280 determines whether or not the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is attached to the own device. It is possible to determine which member is the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250.

  For example, assuming that the resistance value indicated by the main body resistor 300 is 100 kΩ, the resistance value indicated by the ID resistor 240a is 100 kΩ, and the resistance value indicated by the ID resistor 250a is 10 kΩ, the resistance value of the circuit shown in FIG. The resistance value of the resistor 300), the resistance value of the circuit shown in FIG. 4B is 200 kΩ (the resistance value of the main body resistor 300 and the ID resistor 240a), and the resistance value of the circuit shown in FIG. And ID resistor 250a). Therefore, if the resistance value measured by the resistance measurement unit 270 is less than 110 kΩ, the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 can determine that nothing is mounted on the battery mounting unit 230, and the resistance value is 110 kΩ or more and less than 200 kΩ. If so, it can be determined that the dummy battery 250 is mounted on the battery mounting unit 230. If the resistance value is 200 kΩ or more, the second battery 240 is mounted on the battery mounting unit 230. Judgment can be made.

  Based on the above, the resistance values of the main body resistor 300 and the ID resistor 250a may be set to the first predetermined value, and the resistance values of the main body resistor 300 and the ID resistor 240a may be set to the second predetermined value. Accordingly, the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 can determine that nothing is attached to the battery attachment unit 230 when the resistance value measured by the resistance measurement unit 270 is less than the first predetermined value. When the value is less than the second predetermined value, it can be determined that the dummy battery 250 is attached to the battery attachment unit 230. When the resistance value is equal to or greater than the second predetermined value, the battery attachment unit 230 has the second battery. It can be determined that 240 is attached.

  In the present embodiment, the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 uses the resistance value to determine whether the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is attached to or detached from the battery attachment unit 230 (wireless communication device 110). As a means, it is also possible to use the voltage or current of the electric power flowing through the resistance measuring unit 270.

  FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the operation of the wireless communication apparatus 110. As shown in FIG. 5, when the wireless communication device 110 is turned on, the first switch 276 is first turned on (S <b> 400), and power is supplied from the first battery 220. Then, the resistance measuring unit 270 measures the resistance value (resistance value) inside the wireless communication device 110 (S402). Using the resistance value, the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines whether the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is attached to or detached from the wireless communication device 110 (S404).

  When the resistance value is less than the first predetermined value (less than the first predetermined value in S404), the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines that neither the second battery 240 nor the dummy battery 250 is attached to the wireless communication device 110. Then, the fact is displayed on the display unit 204 to notify the user and prompt one of them to be worn (S406). Thereafter, when either the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is mounted (YES in S408), the resistance measurement unit 270 measures the resistance value again (S404). When neither the second battery 240 nor the dummy battery 250 is mounted (NO in S408), the power supply from the first battery 220 is continued, and the control unit 202 intermittently checks the remaining power of the first battery 220. This is performed (S410).

  When the remaining amount of power of the first battery 220 is equal to or less than a predetermined amount, that is, when there is no (or almost no) remaining amount (NO in S410), that fact is displayed on the display unit 204 and The battery 220 is prompted to be charged (S412). When charging (YES in S412), a charging operation is performed (S414). When not charging (NO in S412), the power of the first battery 220 is consumed, and the operation of the wireless communication device 110 ends.

  When the resistance value is greater than or equal to the first predetermined value and less than the second predetermined value (the first predetermined value and greater than the second predetermined value in S404), the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 has the dummy battery 250 attached to the wireless communication device 110. Power supply from the first battery 220 is continued (S416).

  When the resistance value is equal to or greater than the second predetermined value (greater than or equal to the second predetermined value in S404), the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines that the second battery 240 is attached to the wireless communication device 110 (S418). Then, the control unit 202 turns off the first switch 276 and turns on the second switch 278 (S420), and power is supplied from the second battery 240 to the wireless communication device 110. Thereafter, the control unit 202 intermittently checks the remaining power of the second battery 240 (S422).

  When the remaining amount of power of the second battery 240 is equal to or less than a predetermined amount (a state where there is little or no remaining amount) (NO in S422), this is displayed on the display unit 204, and the user is charged with the second battery 240. (S424). When charging (YES in S424), a charging operation is performed (S412). When not charging (NO in S424), the second switch 278 is turned off, the first switch 276 is turned on (S426), and power is supplied from the first battery 220 to the wireless communication device 110.

  Thereafter, the control unit 202 intermittently checks the remaining power of the first battery 220 (S428). When the remaining amount of power of the first battery 220 is equal to or less than the predetermined amount, that is, when there is no (or almost no) remaining amount (NO in S428), that fact is displayed on the display unit 204 and The battery 220 is prompted to be charged (S412).

  In a state where the wireless communication device 110 is supplied with power from the first battery 220 (YES in S428) and is operating in the normal mode, the pin plug 282a is removed, so that the detection unit 282 receives user input (user In the state where power is supplied from the second battery 240 (YES in S422) and operating in the normal mode, the pin plug 282a is removed. When the detection unit 282 detects a user input (user critical situation) (YES in S432), the control unit 202 sets the operation mode of the wireless communication device 110 to the crime prevention mode (S434).

  When the crime prevention mode is set, the battery lid detection unit 272 intermittently detects whether or not the battery lid 260 has been removed from the wireless communication device 110 (S438). When the battery lid detection unit 272 detects that the battery lid 260 has been removed from the wireless communication apparatus 110, that is, when the battery lid 260 is not present (YES in S438), the imaging unit 214 captures an image ( Imaging is started (S440).

  In the present embodiment, the image capturing by the imaging unit 214 is performed when the battery cover 260 is removed in the crime prevention mode. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and is performed in the crime prevention mode setting. Also good. In this case, it goes without saying that imaging start processing is included in the security mode setting by a subroutine described later. Moreover, you may perform the imaging | photography of the image by the imaging part 214 in response to the 2nd battery or the dummy battery having been detached.

  When the pin plug 282a is reattached with the battery cover present (NO in S438) (YES in S442), the control unit 202 cancels the security mode of the wireless communication device 110 (S444), and sets the operation mode of its own device. Set to normal mode. If the pin plug 282a is not reattached (NO in S442), intermittent detection by the battery lid detection unit 272 is continued (S438).

  After the imaging unit 214 starts imaging (S440), the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 intermittently determines whether the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is detached (S446). When the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines that the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is detached (YES in S446), the control unit 202 determines whether the detached member is the second battery 240 or the dummy battery. Then, the first switch is turned on and the second switch is turned off, power is supplied from the first battery, and the operation of the wireless communication device, that is, the security mode is continued (S448).

  Thereafter, when the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is reattached to the wireless communication apparatus 110, that is, when the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines that the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is attached to the own apparatus (YES in S450). The control unit 202 cancels the setting to the crime prevention mode (S444), and sets the operation mode of the own device to the normal mode. When the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is not reattached (NO in S450), the wireless communication device 110 consumes power in the power supply pseudo disconnection mode, and the operation ends.

  When the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is not detached from the wireless communication device 110 (NO in S446), the battery cover detection unit 272 has attached the battery cover 260 to the wireless communication device 110 (reattachment). If it is detected (YES in S454), the control unit 202 cancels the security mode of the wireless communication device 110 (S444). When the battery cover 260 is not remounted (NO in S454), the intermittent detachment determination by the detachment determination unit 280 is continued (S446).

  In the present embodiment, when power is consumed in the crime prevention mode, the operation of the wireless communication device 110 ends. However, when the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is mounted after the operation ends, or when the first battery 220 is charged and the wireless communication device 110 is turned on, the wireless communication device 110 operates. You may start as a normal mode instead of the mode at the end, that is, the security mode.

  FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating a charging operation of the wireless communication device 110. As shown in FIG. 6, when charging, the control unit 202 first determines whether or not the first switch 276 is on (S500). When the first switch 276 is not on (NO in S500), the control unit 202 turns on the first switch 276 (S502). If the first switch 276 is on (YES in S500) or if the first switch 276 is on (S502), the control unit 202 starts charging the first battery 220 (S504).

  When charging of the first battery 220 is completed, that is, when the first battery 220 is fully charged (YES in S506), the resistance measuring unit 270 measures the resistance value (resistance value) inside the wireless communication device 110 ( S508). Using the resistance value, the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines whether the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is attached to or detached from the wireless communication device 110 (S510).

  When the resistance value is less than the first predetermined value (less than the first predetermined value in S510), the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 has neither the second battery 240 nor the dummy battery 250 attached to the wireless communication device 110 (attachment). (No) (S512). When the resistance value is greater than or equal to the first predetermined value and less than the second predetermined value (the first predetermined value is greater than or equal to the second predetermined value in S510), the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 attaches the dummy battery 250 to the wireless communication device 110. (S514). In these cases, the control unit 202 ends the charging operation.

  When the resistance value is equal to or greater than the second predetermined value (greater than or equal to the second predetermined value in S510), the attachment / detachment determination unit 280 determines that the second battery 240 is attached to the wireless communication device 110 (S516). In this case, the control unit 202 turns off the first switch 276, turns on the second switch 278 (S518), and starts charging the second battery 240 (S520). When charging of the second battery 240 is completed, that is, when the second battery 240 is fully charged (YES in S522), the control unit 202 ends the charging operation.

  FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the setting operation and the releasing operation of the crime prevention mode. FIG. 7A shows an operation for setting the security mode, and FIG. 7B shows an operation for releasing the security mode.

  When the operation mode of the wireless communication device 110 is set to the crime prevention mode, as shown in FIG. 7A, the control unit 202 first outputs a warning sound by the audio output unit 208 (S600). Then, the control unit 202 starts voice input by the voice input unit 206 (S602), and starts wireless communication with the contact terminal 150 via the base station 120 by the wireless communication unit 288 (S604). Thus, the input voice is transmitted to the contact terminal 150.

  In parallel with the above, the control unit 202 activates the GPS receiving unit 290 (S606), and the GPS receiving unit 290 receives a signal from the GPS satellite 160 and derives the position of the wireless communication device 110. Next, the control unit 202 activates the transmission unit 292 and transmits the position information (position information) derived by the GPS reception unit 290 to the contact terminal 150.

  In this embodiment, voice, position information, and the like are transmitted to the contact terminal 150. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and may be transmitted to the server or both the contact terminal 150 and the server. Then, the user may be transmitted to an organization that can rescue the user, such as a security company.

  In the present embodiment, in the crime prevention mode, voice input by the voice input unit 206, wireless communication with the contact terminal 150 via the base station 120 by the wireless communication unit 288, and derivation of the position of the own device by the GPS receiving unit 290 However, the present invention is not limited to this. In the security mode, one or more of the above operations may be performed. For example, if only the position of the device itself is derived by the GPS receiver 290 and the position is transmitted by the transmitter 292, the power consumption can be reduced and the operation can be performed for as long a time as possible. It becomes.

  Further, if the purpose is only threatening the suspicious person or notifying the surroundings, the sound output unit 208 may output only the warning sound without performing the above operation in the crime prevention mode. As a result, power consumption can be further reduced, and the time during which the wireless communication apparatus 110 can operate can be extended.

  When the operation mode of the wireless communication device 110 is returned to the normal mode, that is, when the crime prevention mode is canceled, as shown in FIG. 7B, the control unit 202 first stops outputting the warning sound by the audio output unit 208. (S650). Next, the control unit 202 ends the wireless communication of the wireless communication unit 288 (S652), and stops the voice input by the voice input unit 206 (S654). Then, the control unit 202 stops imaging by the imaging unit 214 (S656), stops transmission of position information by the transmission unit 292 (S658), and stops reception of signals and position derivation by the GPS reception unit 290 (S660). .

  As described above, according to the wireless communication device 110 according to the present embodiment, the first battery 220 and the second battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 are provided, and when the second battery 240 is detached, power is supplied from the first battery 220. Supplied. Thereby, it becomes possible to continue operating even after the second battery 240 is removed. And if the 2nd battery 240 or the dummy battery 250 is removed by a suspicious person, it will become possible to fully exhibit a crime prevention function by shifting to a crime prevention mode from a normal operation mode.

  Further, by attaching the second battery 240, which is a secondary battery, to the wireless communication device 110, it is possible to extend the startup time of the wireless communication device 110. Furthermore, since the first battery 220 is provided invisible, the power supply source of the wireless communication device 110 is not completely excluded by the suspicious person.
