Referring to FIG. 1, the angles formed by the main body 102 and the covers 104 and 106 while the covers 104 and 106 are closed form all angles of approximately 0 degrees. At this time, the portable terminal performs a function similar to that of a conventional bar-type terminal. Therefore, the portable terminal provides application functions such as a general call function, a text message transmission function, a time and date display function, and the like.

Referring to FIG. 2, the angles formed by the main body 102 and the covers 104 and 106 when the covers 104 and 106 are both open form angles of approximately 180 degrees. At this time, the portable terminal can provide application functions utilizing the direction key 204 inside the cover, the keypad 208 and the main display device 202 at the angles. For example, it provides an Internet function and a game function for playing a game embedded in a portable terminal or a real time game using the wireless Internet at the above angle.

Referring to FIG. 3, the angles formed by the main body 102 and the covers 104 and 106 with the cover 104 and 106 open at one side and the side closed to form angles of approximately 0 degrees and 180 degrees, respectively. . This is configured such that the user can perform the corresponding application when the two covers 104 and 106 are open on one side and the other on the other side, depending on the purpose, to increase efficiency. At this time, the main display device 202 can be used in accordance with the opening and closing operations of the cover (104, 106). Thus, application functions utilizing part of the keypad 208 inside the cover and the main display device 202 are applied. In this case, the portable terminal may provide a messenger function to a user and may provide application functions such as a simple game function and an electronic dictionary function.                     

When the covers 104 and 106 are open at one side and closed at one side, the angles formed by the main body 102 and the covers 104 and 106 are approximately 180 degrees and 0 degrees, respectively. The opposite is the case. Even in the above case, the operation of the other part of the main display apparatus 202 is possible. In the above angle, similar application functions are applied as shown in FIG. 3 by utilizing a direction key 204 inside the cover and a part of the main display apparatus 202.

Referring to FIG. 4, the angles formed by the main body 102 and the covers 104 and 106 while the covers 104 and 106 are partially opened all form angles of approximately 90 degrees. In this case, it is possible to apply the functions using a camera or a portable terminal having the angle. An internal camera or an external camera applied to the portable terminal may be operated to perform a camera function or to perform functions such as video shooting. In addition, applications connected to electronic devices such as computers and used as camcorders may be applied.

In addition, the portable terminal may be configured to control the automatic execution of applications corresponding to the opening and closing angles of the cover according to the opening and closing angle of the cover, or to display a main or selection menu according to a user setting. For example, when the camera function is operated at the angle, the camera function automatically operates or a menu screen for realizing the application can be displayed when a predetermined time elapses through time setting. . 3, when the cover of the portable terminal is open on one side and the other is closed, a portion of the cover of the main display device 202 is open. When the sensor detects an operation of the covers 104 and 106, the controller is controlled by the controller to enable the main display apparatus 202 in the open direction of the cover.

The program memory stores programs for controlling functions according to opening and closing operations of the portable terminal covers 104 and 106. And a mapping table in which a threshold value corresponding to the opening and closing angle of the terminal cover is set according to the embodiment of the present invention. The mapping table controls the operation of applications for each function applied by mapping to a setting value. Here, since the mapping table is described in detail below, the description thereof will be omitted. Meanwhile, the portable terminal may require an operation of the display unit 522 when the applications are driven. Therefore, the start address value of the display unit indicating the start position of the output data displayed corresponding to each application is stored in the data memory according to the set value. In addition, the data memory temporarily stores data generated during the execution of the programs.

The sensor 508 detects a change in state of the portable terminal covers 104 and 106 and performs a series of controls accordingly. That is, when a predetermined operation is performed around the axes A1 and A2 of the covers 104 and 106 of the portable terminal, the angle at which the covers 104 and 106 are rotated from the main body 102 is detected. Is measured, and the measured value is provided to the controller 502 to be described later.

The controller 502 performs a function of controlling the overall operation of the portable terminal. In addition, the controller 502 checks the measured value from the sensor 508 for measuring the opening and closing angles of the covers 104 and 106, and then determines whether the threshold is an acceptable range in the mapping table. At this time, if the determination value is within the threshold, the corresponding application is mapped to a predetermined setting value. Then, it controls to automatically drive the applications corresponding to the set value corresponding to the opening and closing angle measured by the sensor. In addition, the controller 502 controls the path for transmitting the image data to the display unit 522 and the image processor 520 to change the start address value of the image data output to the display unit 522. Herein, the controller 502 may include an application driving control function for driving a predetermined application according to the present invention as described above.

The signal processor 518 converts an image signal output from the camera 516 into an image signal. The signal processor 518 may be implemented by a digital signal processor (DSP).

The image processor 520 performs a function of generating screen data for displaying an image signal output from the signal processor 518. In addition, the image processor 520 transmits an image signal of an application, which is received under the control of the controller 502, in accordance with the standard of the display unit 522, and compresses and decompresses the image data. In addition, the start address value of the image data output to the display unit 522 is transmitted or the start address value is changed and set under the control of the controller 502.

The display unit 522 outputs the image data output from the image processor 520 from the start address value of the image data transmitted from the image processor 520, that is, the start coordinate value stored in the memory and displays the image data on the screen. In this case, when the display unit 522 is displayed, the display unit 522 may be partially used in the case of the main display apparatus 202 according to the opening / closing angle. The sub display apparatus 112 may also operate according to the opening and closing operation of the portable terminal.

In this case, when the display unit 522 is implemented using a touch screen method, the key input unit 512 and the display unit 522 may be input units. The display unit 522 includes an image data display unit for outputting the image data. In addition, the display unit 522 is displayed using the start address value of the display according to the opening and closing angle according to the present invention.

Next, a detailed detailed operation of the present invention using the configuration of FIG. 5 will be described.

First, when the states of the portable terminal covers 104 and 106 change, the sensor 508 measures the opening and closing angles formed by the covers 104 and 106 with respect to the main body 102. In this case, the opening and closing angles measured by the sensor 508 are input to the controller 502. The control unit 502 receives the opening and closing angles to determine whether the value is within the allowable range of the threshold in the mapping table. Thus, when the opening and closing angle is a value within the allowable range of the threshold in the mapping table, the opening and closing angle is mapped to a setting value corresponding to the range of the threshold. Here, the mapping table divides the various angles formed by the covers 104 and 106 with respect to the main body 102 into predetermined steps, and each application is divided for each of the settings using predetermined settings according to each step. . Therefore, when the state changes of the covers 104 and 106 occur, applications corresponding to the set values obtained through the mapping table are automatically driven. An application corresponding to the set values in the mapping table is applied to the memory 514 according to the use purpose of the portable terminal according to the opening and closing angle. Settings of the applications may be input to the portable terminal or variously applied according to a user's selection. In addition, when the display unit 522 is used to drive the application, the start coordinate value is controlled by the controller 502.

In an embodiment, when both covers 104 and 106 of the portable terminal are closed, that is, the opening and closing angles assume that the covers 104 and 106 form an angle of approximately 0 degrees with respect to the main body 102. When the measured opening and closing angle is divided into predetermined threshold values using a table and mapped to a set value, the mapping table is as shown in Table 1 below.

As shown in Table 1, X and Y are the angles at which the covers 104 and 106 are rotated about the axes A1 and A2 of the main body 102, respectively, to form the main body 102 (hereinafter ' It will be referred to as the opening and closing angle). In addition, the opening and closing angle is measured by a sensor formed on one side or the other side of the body portion (102). In addition, it is preferable to set a threshold value of the error range at which the opening and closing angle forms a specific angle, and set each setting value corresponding to the threshold value of the error range as shown in Table 1, and store it in the memory in advance. Here, the threshold of the error range is considered to be within the corresponding error range of the rotation angle within a minute range that does not affect the sensor in the angle between the body portion 102 and the cover 104, 106 do.

Hereinafter, an operation process of the present invention using the mapping table will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4 and Table 1.

Referring to FIG. 1, FIG. 1 is a state in which the portable terminal covers 104 and 106 are all closed. That is, the opening and closing angles X and Y both form an angle of approximately 0 degrees. In this case, if the set values corresponding to the opening and closing angles X and Y are obtained, the values are (1, 1), respectively. If the operation of the application corresponding to (1, 1) is set as a general call function, an application function for making a call with another user may be driven.

Referring to FIG. 2, in FIG. 2, the covers 104 and 106 of the portable terminal are both open. That is, the opening and closing angles X and Y both form an angle of approximately 180 degrees. In this case, if the set values corresponding to the opening and closing angles X and Y are obtained, the values are (3 and 3), respectively. If the application operation corresponding to (3, 3) is set to the game function, the game application function is driven.

Referring to FIG. 3, the cover 104 of one side of the portable terminal is closed and the cover 106 of the other side is open. That is, the X and Y form an angle of approximately 0 degrees and 180 degrees. In this case, if the set values corresponding to the opening and closing angles X and Y are obtained, the values are (1, 3), respectively. If the application operation corresponding to the above (1, 3) was an electronic organizer function, the electronic organizer function is driven. In addition, it is possible to provide functions such as personal schedule management or phone number search through the electronic notebook function.

In the above description, the cover 104 of one side is closed and the cover 106 of the other side is opened. However, the present invention may also perform a process opposite to the above. For example, the cover 106 of one side is closed and the cover 104 of the other side is open.

3, when the cover 104 of one side is closed and the cover 106 of the other side is open, a part of the main display apparatus 202 may be used, and this requires the use of the sub display apparatus 112. In this case, both the main display apparatus 202 and the sub display apparatus 112 can be used.

Referring to FIG. 4, in FIG. 4, the covers 104 and 106 of the portable terminal are both half open and closed. That is, the X and Y each form an angle of approximately 90 degrees. In this case, if the set values corresponding to the opening and closing angles X and Y are obtained, the values are (2 and 2), respectively. If the application corresponding to (2, 2) was a camera function, a mode for performing a shooting function using a camera is driven. It is possible to provide a photographing function, such as a picture, a video through the camera function.

Referring to FIG. 6, the portable terminal automatically operates an application corresponding to each opening and closing angle formed by the main body 102 and the covers 104 and 106 of the portable terminal. Here, it is preferable that the application corresponding to the opening and closing angle is arbitrarily set in advance by the user. Thus, the application desired by the user for any particular opening and closing angle can be set at any time.

First, the opening and closing operation of the cover of the portable terminal occurs by the user (602). Herein, when the cover is operated, that is, when a state change of the terminal cover occurs, the sensor detects this. The sensor 508 of the portable terminal then measures the opening and closing angles formed by the covers 104 and 106 with the main body 604. Next, it is determined whether the measured opening and closing angles are opening and closing angles satisfying conditions of predetermined thresholds (606). As a result of the determination, if the opening angle does not exist in the mapping table, the operation of the cover is waited again. However, when the open / close angle satisfies the conditions of the thresholds of the mapping table, the open / close angle is mapped to set values (608). Next, an application function corresponding to the set values is searched for (610). If the application function is found, the application is driven (612).

Thus, by the user, the portable terminal can be used by driving applications of the portable terminal corresponding to the opening and closing angle according to the opening and closing angle of the portable terminal without the operation of a separate terminal only by the opening and closing operation or simple selection operation of the cover. . As a result, it is possible to provide convenience to the user who uses the portable terminal.
