According to the present invention, when a call request is generated in a mobile phone, many users do not recognize a signal and notify the mobile phone holder that a call request is generated using a vibration signal, a lamp signal, or an electrical stimulation signal. The present invention relates to an accessory device for receiving a mobile phone.

The present invention in the development of a device for receiving a radio signal from a mobile phone to inform the user in the form of accessories such as rings, earrings, bracelets, anklets, necklaces, etc. in order to be easily carried by the user or attach to a watch Provides a compact device that can be.

Among the technologies required to implement the present invention, a technology for notifying a user by using a vibration signal or a lamp signal when a phone is called is already a basic technology commonly used in all mobile phones.

In addition, a necessary base technology includes a short range wireless communication technology (eg Bluetooth) for transmitting and receiving wireless signals in a short distance, and this technology is currently developed and commercialized.

Therefore, in implementing the present invention, which is a device separate from the mobile phone, the purpose of the present invention may be realized by appropriately combining the previously developed technologies in a necessary form, but in order to implement the present invention more simply and efficiently, a chip antenna, Semiconductor modules in the concept of a System on Chip (SOC) or Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) incorporating an RF module, flash memory and a processor are preferred.

Therefore, the semiconductor module, which is one of the core parts in implementing the present invention, provides a small semiconductor chip configured by integrating a chip antenna, an RF module, and a memory and a processor for a short range wireless communication function.

One of the inconveniences that mobile phone users have in using mobile phones is that they often do not notice that their phone is in a vibrating mode or in noisy places such as subways.

Therefore, the present invention was made to solve such inconvenience by timely recognizing that a phone call was made to the mobile phone, and is designed to be small and can serve as an accessory to improve convenience and patentability for mobile phone reception. An accessory device is provided.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is composed of a semiconductor chip for receiving and processing a radio signal transmitted from a mobile phone and a power supply unit 4 for supplying power together with the main body 1 as illustrated in FIG. And a stimulus signal unit 3 for stimulating a human body with a vibration signal, a ramp signal, or an electrical stimulation signal using the received signal.

The semiconductor chip used in the receiver 2 of the invention is characterized in that the RF module and antenna, memory and processor functions used in the short-range wireless communication (for example, Bluetooth) technology that has been previously developed is integrally configured. The signal received from the chip is configured to be transmitted to the stimulus signal part 3 to give a stimulus to the human body through the stimulus signal part.

In the case of using a vibration signal in transmitting the stimulus to the human body in the stimulus signal unit 3, it is possible to use a small vibration signal providing device developed for a mobile phone.

In addition, when the lamp signal is used in the stimulus signal unit 3, the light source is configured to emit light of various colors by making an LED (Light-Emitting Diode) or one or more lamps.

In addition, in the case of using the electrical stimulation signal in the stimulus signal unit 3, when a signal indicating that the call is received to the receiver 2 is received, it is harmless to the human body and can be detected by the appropriate electric stimulation intensity (1 to 2mA) ) To notify the user that a call has been made.

The method for sensing the electrical stimulation signal is configured to recognize the stimulus by configuring the current intensity to be appropriate by using the battery and the resistor provided from the power supply unit 4, and then let the current flow directly to the contact portion of the human body.

In the configuration of the stimulus signal unit 3 as a vibration stimulus, a lamp stimulus, or an electrical signal stimulus, a method configured by combining two or three methods is also provided.

For example, a signal is initially given by a lamp signal for a predetermined time, and then a vibration signal or an electrical signal is used to stimulate a human body.

Of course, in implementing the above invention, the part including the stimulus signal unit 3 and the receiver 2 may be provided in the form of an egg in a ring, earring, necklace, or the like as shown in FIG. 3.

In addition, when the invention is produced in the form of earrings to provide a sound emitting device for transmitting a small sound in the audible frequency to the user to recognize.

On the other hand, the power supply in the present invention is configured to supply power using a battery, such as lithium ions that can be arbitrarily configured using an existing battery or its shape.

For example, when the invention is developed in a ring-like shape, the battery shape is also developed to fit a certain portion of the ring as shown in FIG. 4 when using a lithium ion battery.

Meanwhile, two methods may be considered to pair the present invention with a specific mobile phone in a one-to-one manner.

The first is to give a serial number to the present invention in the process of producing the present invention to produce, and to be configured to work in pairs by entering the serial number (serial number) in a specific mobile phone.

Thus, when directly inputting the serial number assigned to the invention in the mobile phone can reduce the size of the invention, there is an advantage because the input content can be confirmed through the LCD screen of the mobile phone in entering the serial number. Input contents can be modified and input at any time.

The second method is to directly input the unique number of the mobile phone to the invention to operate, in this case, the input unit must be additionally configured to enable the user to input or modify the invention.

As a method of inputting a control code to the input unit, there is also provided a method of inputting a number by making a number plate like a telephone number panel, and using one or several input buttons to make a small invention. It is provided to enter a number.

For example, if one input button is used, the input number is initialized by continuously pressing for more than 3 seconds as shown in FIG. 5, and since then, 3 is 3 times, 5 is 5 times, 7 is 7 times, and 0 is 10 times. Enter the number by pressing continuously, but the number and the number between the number in the interval of 1 second or more, and after pressing until the end, if there is no more input for a certain period of time it may be used to store the number entered until then.

Of course, using two or more input buttons provides a method for inputting a variety of control codes.

The input button is provided with various methods such as to perform the role of the lamp at the same time.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described examples, and various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the spirit of the invention provided.

As described above, the present invention relates to a device for notifying that there is a call request through a separate device for receiving a mobile phone call when the mobile phone user does not recognize when there is a call request on the mobile phone.

Accordingly, when the present invention is used even when it is difficult to hear by vibrating a mobile phone or in a noisy place such as a subway, it is easy to recognize that a call has been received, so that important calls such as business or business can be received at that time without being missed. useful.
