Description

Curved sliding type portable terminal {CURVE SLIDING TYPE PORTABLE TERMINAL}

The present invention relates to a curved sliding type portable terminal, and more particularly, to a curved sliding type portable terminal for slidably coupling the upper body from the lower body in a vertical direction.

In general, a portable terminal is a wireless communication device that can carry a call while carrying or holding it in a hand, and includes a bar type, a flip type, a holder type, a sliding type, and the like. have. At this time, the sliding type is already disclosed in the application number 20-1999-0002860, Utility Model Publication No. 2000-0017402.

As shown in FIG. 1, the sliding type portable terminal disclosed in the Utility Model Publication No. 2000-0017402 has a lower main body 2 including various dials, and is opened and closed in a sliding manner with respect to the main body 2. The upper body 1 includes earphones and an LCD screen. 2 and 3, concave grooves are formed on both sides of the lower body 2 to form a groove rail 5, and the groove rails are formed on the inner side of the upper body 1. A protruding rail 4 is provided to slide along 5). In addition, the upper end of the groove rail (5) is closed to inhibit the upward movement by the protruding rail (4), the plurality of leaf springs (3) at regular intervals on the groove rail (5) side of the lower body (2) On the protruding rail 4 side of the upper main body 1, a concave groove 6 for receiving the leaf spring 3 is formed.

Accordingly, in the state in which the upper main body 1 is mounted on the lower main body 2, the leaf spring 3 of the lower main body 2 is matched to the concave groove 6 of the upper main body 1, and thus the upper main body 1 is mounted on the lower main body 2. The lower main body 2 is not separated from the main body 1. In addition, when lowering the upper main body 1 with a slight shaking, the lower main body 2 is lowered by its own weight, and the leaf spring 3 of the lower main body 2 is continuously lowered by the upper main body 1. The lower body 2 is lowered from the recessed groove 6.

As a result, the upper main body 1 can be slid open from the lower main body 2 with one hand, and its use is convenient, and there is an advantage of reducing manufacturing costs without using an expensive hinge device.

However, in the conventional sliding type portable terminal, since the plurality of leaf springs 3 are mounted at regular intervals on the groove rail 5 side of the lower main body 2, the upper main body 1 slides smoothly. There is a disadvantage that is not made.

In addition, there is a risk that the elastic force of the leaf spring (3) is easily lowered due to the repeated sliding operation, which is not sliding smoothly and a slight gap between the lower body (2) and the upper body (1) A gap is generated and a phenomenon of twisting from side to side occurs.

In addition, the conventional sliding type portable terminal having the above configuration is designed such that the upper main body 1 can be opened and closed linearly from the lower main body 2 and has not been designed in a human body structure.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a curved sliding type portable terminal designed by the human body so that the upper body is sliding in a curve from the lower body.

The curved guide rail 140 is provided at the other side of the upper body 10 through the fitting hole 147a of the first curved guide rail 140a and the fitting hole 142b of the second curved guide rail 140b. The upper body 10 is fixed by a fastening means such as a screw or a nail, and is fitted through the fitting hole 142a of the first curved guide rail 140a and the fitting hole 147b of the second curved guide rail 140b. Fix it with other fastening means such as screws or nails.

As shown in FIG. 8, the curved guide rail 140 combines the first curved guide rail 140a and the second curved guide rail 140b into the upper body 10. Fix it on the other side of Since the curved guide rail 140 having such a configuration can be combined and installed as one, it is easier to install and construct than the curved guide rail 40 having the configuration of FIG. 6.

The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and can be variously modified and changed by those skilled in the art, which are included in the spirit and scope of the present invention defined in the appended utility model registration claims Should be seen.

As described above, according to the curved sliding type portable terminal according to the present invention, by opening and closing the upper main body 10 from the lower main body 20 so as to be able to open and close in a curve to fit the human body structure, the user It can provide convenient functions to users, and it is effective in differentiating from other products.

In addition, the upper main body 10 slides in a curve from the lower main body 20 and then closes and fits the upper main body to the fitting protrusions of the first and second curved guide rails fixed to the lower main body 20 at the time of completion of opening and closing. By elastically fitting and fixing the elastic fitting portion 31 of the slide member 30 fixed to 10, it is possible to prevent the portable terminal from shaking or twisting during use.

In addition, when the upper main body 10 of the portable terminal is completely open from the lower main body 20, since the structure of the portable terminal has a curve that conforms to the human body when viewed from the side, it provides a convenient function during a call It works.

In addition, since the separation distance between the upper main body 10 having the LCD screen 11 and the antenna 21 can be larger than before, there is an effect that can improve the call quality.
