Description

Protector structure for terminal of data transmission and receipt}

The present invention relates to a protector of a wired and wireless data transmission and reception terminal. It also relates to a wired and wireless data transmission and reception terminal having a protector. The wired / wireless data transmission / reception terminal protector or the wired / wireless data transmission / reception terminal having the protector according to the present invention is designed to prevent damage to the display unit or the touch screen while maintaining the characteristics and merchandise of the terminal to which the digitizer (touch screen) is applied as a display unit or an input device through a seat protector. To prevent.

A typical wired / wireless data transmission / reception terminal includes a system terminal body having a program memory and a driving control board, an input device for driving the system, and an input device or a cover for protecting the display portion separately from the input device. do.

The desktop computer, which is separated from the CPU, display (monitor) and input device (keyboard), does not have a cover to protect the display, but the laptop computer has a cover that protects the display part by treating the outside of the display with a hard board. It is attached to the CPU body so that it can be folded and unfolded.

Terminals capable of transmitting and receiving wired and wireless data can be broadly classified into desktop or knobbook computers and personal data processing devices (PDAs). It is narrowed down to a dedicated information processing device.

Web pad, which is known as a terminal product name of a functional meaning that it is possible to carry wireless Internet access, can be regarded as a representative type of personal information processing device among such wireless data terminals. Since the terminal holds the terminal body with one hand and inputs with the other hand, input devices such as a mouse and a keyboard are almost impossible to use.

(A) (b) of FIG. 1 shows a terminal of a type in which the terminal body 10 and the display unit 11 are integrated, and its structure replaces a part of an input function such as a mouse or a keyboard in the terminal body 10. The input function buttons 12 are suitably arranged on the flat edge of the terminal body 10 except for the display unit 11 area, and the panel type flat panel display 11 is mounted on the terminal body 10. 13 is a speaker.

2 (a) and 2 (b) show another type of terminal in which the terminal body 10 and the display unit 11 are integrated. The structure of the terminal body 10 is similar to that of FIG. An input function button 12, which replaces a part of the input function, is appropriately arranged at the flat edge of the terminal body 10 except for the display unit 11 area, and the panel flat panel display 11 is placed on the terminal body 10. ) Is mounted, and the touch screen 14 is added again on the flat panel display 11. This structure can accept all user inputs through the touch screen 14 without having a function button 12 on the terminal body 10. 13 is a speaker.

Although the terminals of FIGS. 1 and 2 structurally show slight differences in input methods with respect to the acceptance of the touch screen, the terminals of FIG. 1 and 2 generally have characteristics of providing an optimal use environment as a terminal capable of transmitting and receiving mobile wireless data. According to these characteristics, data can be transmitted and received regardless of the place, and when the touch screen 14 is used as an input device as shown in FIG. 2, input is simplified and misoperation compared to other input devices such as a mouse or a keyboard. It can be used for small text input by hand, and can provide a highly graphical user interface environment depending on the application.

However, since the use area is large and convenient to use, the display unit 11 or the touch screen 14 is in an exposed state when not in use, in storage, and when moved to another place, and thus may be easily damaged by external environments. There are disadvantages.

In particular, the touch screen 14 is reinforced with high reliability, provision of new functions, durability, manufacturing technology related to design and processing including materials or materials, rather than general functions as an initial input device.

The input detection method also includes capacitive type, ultrasonic type, infrared sensor type, electromagnetic induction type, etc. in addition to a resistive film formed by combining two sheets of resistive components which are separated by a spacer and arranged to be in contact with each other by pressing. Since the problems of signal amplification, resolution, and difficulty of design and processing technology all appear differently, they select the method in consideration of durability, economy, etc. in addition to optical, electrical, mechanical, environmental, and input characteristics. A resistive touch screen is applied to a wireless data terminal.

In the resistive touch screen, the upper and lower plates are bonded to each other so that the transparent conductive film faces each other, and the lower plate is pressed by the pressure of the upper plate to be contacted with the lower plate. Therefore, because the top plate uses a stretchable PET film or thin glass, it has a weakness that is easily damaged by a small impact, and the uniformity of the film quality and the linearity of detection are fragile.

The input position detection is performed by inserting electrodes on the upper plate and the lower plate and inserting them between the dot spacers to extract the input signal with a connector tail.When the upper plate and the lower plate are contacted to apply a voltage between the electrodes of the lower plate, the resistance surface between the two electrodes is applied. An electric potential gradient occurs at, and the voltage is read from the upper electrode to calculate the input position of the X axis. Then, a voltage is applied between the electrodes of the upper plate, the voltage is read from the electrode of the lower plate, the position of the Y axis is calculated, and the input point is displayed on the display. By repeating this at high speed, the input position is continuously displayed on the display, and a character or a line is drawn.

The touch screen 14 as such an input device has been developed by the versatility of the product equipped with the touch screen, and in particular, as the number of cases using the LCD as the display 11 increases, the demand for the touch screen mounted on the LCD has increased. However, when the uniformity of the transparent conductive film quality or the linearity of the electrode is deformed or broken by an external impact, the detection of such an input position or the function of realizing it on a display itself is impossible or greatly affects reliability.

For reference, as shown in FIG. 2, a lamination structure known to form a terminal to which the touch screen 10 is added to the flat panel display 11 is illustrated. As shown in the cross-sectional structure of FIG. 3, the upper plate 15 and the lower plate ( The polarizer 17 is placed under the touch screen 14 formed of the base panel 16, and the liquid crystal display 18 is placed under the polarizer 17, and the polarizer 17 is placed under the liquid crystal display 18. As a form of lamination, the lamination structure may be changed depending on the design conditions such as the maintenance of the optical axis, light transmittance, thinness, compactness, and weight reduction.

Meanwhile, terminals exposed to the display unit 11 as shown in FIG. 1, terminals exposed to the touch screen 14 as shown in FIG. 2, or similar display units exposed to wired / wireless data are exposed to external environments. As described above, the touch screen can be easily damaged by being scratched during movement or use, especially when the touch screen is added as an input device.

On the other hand, a cover similar to the cover is attached to the terminal body 10 to protect the display unit 11 or the touch screen 14. As shown in FIG. 4, the cover 22 is disposed at one end of the terminal body 10. FIG. There is a method of mounting.

The structure of FIG. 4 can be seen as a structure that can solve the problem of protecting the display 11 or the touch screen 14 by applying a notebook computer structure to the wired / wireless data transmission / reception terminals of FIGS. 1 and 2, but has a functional or structural problem. This can be seen from the notebook computer and its lid structure of FIG. 5.

5 shows a general notebook computer 21 in which the display unit 11 is integrated into the cover 20 without being placed on the system body 19. The structure of the cover 11 is made of a hard cover made of plastic or alloy material. By mounting the display unit 11 on its inner surface it can be a suitable structure that can avoid damage to the display unit 11 when at least not in use. However, if the cover 11 can be folded and unfolded on the system main body 19, it may be safe during transport or storage, but when used, the open cover 20 occupies a large space physically and is used with one hand to hold the input device and the display unit. It is developed in two planes and has a disadvantage of obstructing the user's view, and also has a problem of being a limiting factor in light weight and thin design. This problem is considered a very important and serious problem not only for notebook computers but also for all wired and wireless data transmission and reception terminals, especially wireless data transmission and reception terminals.

Therefore, the conventional wired / wireless data transmitting and receiving terminal has the advantage of providing the user with the convenience of mobility, usability, and usability, but structurally, the display part shows an externally exposed structure so that damage or damage can easily occur due to impact, thereby deteriorating image quality. If the problem of loss of the display function is large and the touch screen additional type structure is applied as an input device, there is a problem such that the display function cannot be performed properly due to the damage of the touch screen and the degree of linearity of the electrode. In the case of simply installing the cover for the purpose of protecting the display unit or the touch screen, there is a problem in that it cannot be adapted to the user environment in consideration of the original purpose of use.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a display protector suitable for the purpose of using a wired or wireless data transmission and reception terminal.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a wired and wireless data transmission and reception terminal having a protector.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a protector for protecting the touch screen when the touch screen is added to the wired / wireless data transmission / reception terminal.

Another object of the present invention is to add a thinner to the wired and wireless data transmission and reception terminal.

The terminal protector of the present invention for achieving these objects,

In a data transmission / reception terminal in which a terminal body has an input function button that replaces a part of an input function such as a mouse or a keyboard, in a terminal body except a display area, and a display is mounted on the terminal body and the terminal body and the display are integrated.

This structure is constructed by installing a seat protector 34 on the upper surface of the touch screen 33 placed on the upper surface of the display unit 32 integrated in the terminal body 31.

As shown in FIG. 9, the terminal body 31 of this structure supports or arbitrarily supports the seat protector 34, which becomes an arbitrary relative structure, at least at one end beyond the active area of the display unit 32 and the touch screen 33 as shown in FIG. A support band 36 which can be attached is configured, and the seat protector 34 supported or optionally attached to the support band 36 is a support band corresponding to the support band 36 on the side of the terminal body 31 itself. It is provided in the form of being bonded to the terminal main body 31, and when unfolded to cover the active area of the display unit 32 and the touch screen 33 of the terminal main body 31 of the terminal main body 31 It covers the surface.

Components applicable to the support bands 36 and 37 formed in the terminal body 31 and the seat protector 34 may be representatively configured as shown in FIG. 10 (a) (b) (c). (a) is a structure using the male and female buttons 38 and 39, (b) is a case using the Teflon tape 40, and (c) is a case using the magnet 41. As shown in FIG.

The seat protector 34 is constructed by using the seat hard board 42 formed in consideration of the adhesive band region 'a1' of the support bands 36 and 37 as shown in FIG. 11, and a cotton fabric such as a tough cloth, leather or cotton wool. It is also possible to form and utilize the composition of the flexible sheet protector 34 or the tough and soft LDPE (low density polyethylene) plastic by the sheet protector 34 of a flat plate.

In addition, it is also applicable to the case of Fig. 12 in which the sheet protector 34 having the above-described properties, which is physically flexible, is fixedly attached to one end of the terminal body 31 in advance. In this case, the use of the support bands 36 and 37 is not necessary.

Application examples of the support bands 36 and 37 configurable to the terminal body 31 and the seat protector 34 and the seat protectors 34 which can be organically combined with the configuration of the support bands 36 and 37 are as follows. .

1. The support band 36 of the terminal body 31 and the support band 37 of the seat protector 34 are each set to an arbitrary adhesive band region, and thus, each support band 36 (a) of FIG. 37) a type of buttons 38 and 39 of male and female. In this case, the seat protector 34 can be attached to and detached from the terminal body 31 through the buttons 38 and 39. The seat protector 34 applicable to this type is a sheet-type hard board 42 based on a contact point and a bending surface in consideration of the contact position of the cover region of the terminal body 31 and the support bands 36 and 37 in advance. All sheets processed into a structure that attaches or removes the terminal body 31 to the terminal body 31, or a soft artificial or natural fabric and a soft synthetic resin can be applied.

2. The support band 36 of the terminal body 31 and the support band 37 of the seat protector 34 are set to an arbitrary adhesive band area, respectively, and each support band 36 as shown in FIG. Male and female teflon tapes (40) are attached to (37), and the material does not necessarily need to be a synthetic resin material, and can be applied in a similar structure as long as it can be repeatedly attached and detached. As an example, the tape 40 is directly attached to the support bands 36 and 37, or the support bands 36 and 37 are formed in the process of configuring the terminal body 31 or the seat protector 34. It is also possible.

In this case as well, the sheet protector 34 can be attached and detached from the terminal body 31 via the tape 40. The seat protector 34 applicable to this type is a sheet-type hard board 42 based on a contact point and a bending surface in consideration of the contact position of the cover region of the terminal body 31 and the support bands 36 and 37 in advance. It is possible to apply the structure to make or attach to the terminal body 31, or remove the structure itself, but the application of the sheet protector processed with a soft artificial or natural fabric and a soft synthetic resin may be more preferred.

Bonding using the magnet 41 can also be performed as shown in FIG.

The present invention is particularly applicable to at least two types of data transmission and reception terminals among the terminals capable of wireless data transmission and reception.

For example, as shown in FIG. 6, an input function button for replacing a part of an input function such as a mouse or a keyboard is arranged in the terminal body 31 except for the display area, and on the terminal body 31. The display 32 is equipped with a data transmission and reception terminal 30 in which the terminal body 31 and the display 32 are integrated, or an input function button for replacing a part of an input function such as a mouse or a keyboard on the terminal body 31. It is selectively arranged on the plane of the terminal body 31 except for the display area. A display 32 is mounted on the terminal body 31, and the touch screen 33 is added on the display 32 in order from the bottom. The terminal body 31, the display 32, and the touch screen 33 are applied to the integrated data transmission / reception terminal 30 or all similar terminals.

When the seat protector 34 is installed on the display on the terminal body 31 in which the terminal body 31 and the display unit 32 are integrated as shown in FIG. 7, first, the support band 36 and the seat protector of the terminal body 31 are installed. When the support band 37 of 34 is bonded together, the display unit 32 is completely covered by the seat protector 34, and the width covered by the seat protector 34 is adjusted according to the size of the seat protector 34. Do.

In the case of using the terminal, the support band 37 of the seat protector 34 is attached to the support band 36 of the terminal body 31 and the end of the seat protector 34 is lifted up to display the display unit 32. ) Is exposed and the display unit 32 is exposed and can be used. On the contrary, when the seat protector 34 is released, the display unit 32 is covered.

As the adhesive structure of the support bands 36, 37, it is possible to apply a button type, a tape type, a magnetic type, and there is no functional advantage in using it, but the support bands 36, 37 have a button type, a tape type, or a magnetic type. The sheet protector 34 can be attached and detached from the terminal body 31 so that the seat protector 34 can be replaced and, in some cases, the seat protector 34 may not be used.

When the seat protector 34 is previously attached to the terminal body 31, the seat protector 34 can be folded and unfolded immediately without attaching and detaching a support band separately, but the seat protector 34 is integrated into the terminal body 31. ) Is not attached when damaged or removed.

When the seat protector 34 is supported by the terminal body 31 to cover the display unit 32, the seat protector 34 always covers the surface of the display unit 32 when the terminal is not in use. Reduce scratching or damage.

If the sheet protector 34 is used as a material of cotton fabric, textile material or flexible synthetic film, it can be folded and unfolded even with a small force and protects the display unit 32 without affecting the overall thickness or weight of the terminal. . If the thickness of the sheet protector 34 is increased, the impact resistance of the display unit 32 is enhanced.

FIG. 8 illustrates a case in which the seat protector 34 is installed on the upper surface of the touch screen 33 of the data transmission / reception terminal in which the terminal body 31, the display 32, and the touch screen 33 are integrated. In the same manner as in the example, the protection function, the action, and the like of the display unit 32 by the seat protector 34 are similar.

FIG. 7 illustrates a structure in which the seat protector 34 is installed on the upper surface of the display unit 32 to show a more effective effect of preventing scratches, such as scratching, during the surface protection of the display unit 32. By installing the seat protector 34 on the upper surface of the touch screen 33 instead of the display unit 32, it is possible to prevent loss of input function mainly such as uniformity damage of the transparent conductive film quality or linear deformation of the electrode of the touch screen 33. It can be seen that the action is greater.

On the other hand, when the seat protector 34 is installed on the terminal body 31 can not be sufficiently prepared for impact resistance, but this can be compensated to some extent through the development of a suitable material or material and the main purpose is to prepare for damage such as scratches In addition, due to the characteristics of the wireless data transmission and reception terminal, a lightweight and thin design is becoming more important, and it is difficult to realize the optimum design simply by putting a simple cover on the terminal body as in the past, and also it is not possible to maintain the merits of device characteristics. The lightweight seat protector 34 can be effectively applied to protect the device while maximizing the device characteristics of the wireless data transmission and reception terminal. If the seat protector is damaged, it is possible to exchange it with another seat protector by attaching and detaching the support band as described above, and maintain compatibility with taste or preference.

As such, the present invention can provide a display and a touch screen protector, which are particularly suitable for the purpose of using a wireless data transmission / reception terminal, and can be applied to the wireless data transmission / reception terminal while maintaining the thinness, light weight, and miniaturization characteristics thereof. In terms of structure, the protector can be installed and separated, so that interchangeability and replacement with other protectors can be maintained, which can satisfy a variety of products and user preferences. In addition, when the wireless data transmission and reception terminal is integrally provided with a touch screen as an input device, it is possible to prevent damage to the touch screen through a protector and to prevent an input function loss and a problem.
