In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a portable telephone capable of two-way voice and text communication through the speaker 13 and the microphone 14 in the state of the operation of the input key 11 and the display unit 20. The display unit ( 20 is characterized in that it comprises a second fixed region 22 for illuminating a predetermined advertising character or figure in addition to the first fixed region 21 for illuminating the set figure or character.

At this time, the second fixed area 22 is turned on for a predetermined time under certain conditions such as the operation of the input key 11 according to the instruction of the control unit 30.

Meanwhile, the controller 30 may further include a function of outputting and advertising the character information input on the storage unit 33 to the variable region 23.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail a preferred embodiment according to the present invention.

1 is a perspective view showing a portable telephone according to the present invention with a partial enlargement of the display unit.

The present invention relates to a portable telephone capable of two-way voice and text communication through the speaker 13 and the microphone 14 with the operation of the input key 11 and the state of the display unit 20. In the figure, reference numeral 12 denotes an antenna for transmitting and receiving wireless signals, and reference numeral 15 denotes a cover that performs a hook function while protecting the input key 11.

According to the present invention, the display unit 20 includes a second fixed region 22 for lighting a predetermined advertisement character or figure in addition to the first fixed region 21 for lighting the set figure or character.

Typically, the display unit 20 uses a liquid crystal display (LCD) panel and is divided into a first fixed region 21 and a variable region 23 according to a function. The first fixed region 21 is a portion in which, for example, a figure indicating a vibration mode, a figure indicating menu selection, and the like are formed, and only ON and OFF are performed. The variable area 23 is a part for displaying an operation state such as various operation modes or missed call indications provided in text by selecting a menu from the input key 11.

According to the present invention, an advertisement copy (for example, a company logo) of a business owner is placed in a second fixed area 22 having the same function as the first fixed area 21 and controlled to be turned on or off under a set condition. Reference is made to FIG. 2.

Figure 2 is a block diagram showing the main functional connection state of the portable telephone according to the present invention.

The control unit 30 using the microcomputer responds to the user within a predetermined time when the ring signal is received. To control wealth. The user interface 31 receives a signal from an input key 11 composed of key metrics and converts the signal into a digital signal. The user interface 31 also processes audio signals of the speaker 13 and the microphone 14 although not shown. The wireless interface 32 extracts data by removing a carrier signal from a radio signal of a predetermined band received through the antenna 12, and synthesizes a carrier signal with an audio signal input through the microphone 14 to the antenna 12. Send through.

At this time, the second fixed area 22 is turned on for a predetermined time under certain conditions such as the operation of the input key 11 according to the instruction of the control unit 30.

The signal for turning on the second fixed region 22 in which the advertisement character or figure is displayed on the display unit 20 may be controlled by the controller 30 to be extracted from the user interface 31 and / or the wireless interface 32.

For example, the second fixed state is fixed for a predetermined time using a signal powered on by the input key 11, a signal pressed by the send key 11, a signal processed by the wireless interface 32, or the like. Allow region 22 to be on. Of course, the second fixed region 22 may be turned on at all times during the power-on.

Meanwhile, the controller 30 may further include a function of outputting and advertising the character information input on the storage unit 33 to the variable region 23.

The storage unit 33 includes an area in which a series of control programs for displaying predetermined information and waiting for a call are stored on the display unit 20 at power-on, an area for storing output data required for menu selection of the portable telephone, and a speed dial. It is divided into the area which stores the data table which can be modified such as telephone number.

In this case, in order to display characters in the variable area 23 of the display unit 20 according to the present invention, an area for storing predetermined advertisement data must be secured. Data in this area is entered by the mobile phone provider before shipment of the product, and it is possible to advertise in various forms as compared with simply turning on and off the fixed message using the second fixed area 22.

In this case, since the memory may occupy a considerably large memory according to the type of the ad text stored in the second fixed region 22, the design of the storage 33 should be considered in consideration of sufficient capacity.

However, when the variable region 23 is used without using a separate region like the second fixed region 22, there is a possibility that a collision with an existing function may occur. For example, if a phone number is input with the input key 11 while the ad text is displayed on the display unit 20, it is necessary to assign the priority of the interrupt so that the ad text disappears immediately before the specified output time has elapsed. . Otherwise, it may cause inconvenience to the user of the mobile phone and may adversely affect the advertisement.

If the advertisement is updated every certain period, it is possible to compensate for a certain amount of the telephone bill. In this case, only the data on the storage unit 33 needs to be updated in the portable telephone of the user visiting the portable telephone service company.

Meanwhile, the present invention exemplifies and describes an advertisement using a text and a figure. However, since the data processing method is not very different, the advertisement can be easily applied to an advertisement using a voice and a mobile phone supporting a moving image.

In addition, the present invention is illustrated and described with respect to a portable telephone, but can be easily applied to a general wired and wireless telephone.

According to the above configuration and operation, the present invention provides users with a mobile phone incorporating an advertisement of a business owner for free, and the business owner can provide a necessary advertisement for the selected user, thereby increasing the demand for the mobile phone by promoting both parties' profits. It works.

It is apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described, and that various modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, such modifications or modifications will have to belong to the utility model registration claims of the present invention.
