FIG. 2 is a perspective view illustrating an emergency call button structure of a smartphone according to the present invention, FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing an emergency call button of a smartphone according to the present invention, FIG. to be.

Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, the smartphone 1 of the present invention is provided with a camera module 10 on its rear side, and an emergency call button is provided immediately adjacent to the camera module 10. In the present embodiment, a smart phone is exemplified, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and includes a portable terminal device such as a tablet PC and a wireless communication device provided with a camera module.

The camera module 10 is mounted on the PCB 110 and a plurality of depression switches 112 are disposed on the PCB 110 around the camera module 10 and a plurality of assembly holes 111 are formed, Is assembled.

The button bracket 120 has a rectangular shape and is formed with a first opening 121 through which the camera module 10 passes through the center and a fixing protrusion 122 protruding downward from the rim. The fixing protrusion 122 is inserted into an assembly hole 111 provided in the PCB 110 so that the fixing protrusion 122 and the PCB 110 can be fixed by an adhesive or by soldering, A locking protrusion may be formed at the end of the protrusion 122 so as to be fixed to the assembly hole 111.

The lens bracket 130 is provided with a window for allowing the camera module 10 to be optically and transparently exposed and is elastically supported in the vertical direction with the button bracket 120 so that the on / Can be achieved.

An elastic member is provided between the button bracket 120 and the lens bracket 130, and the elastic member provides an operation force so that the lens bracket 130 can return to the original position when the lens bracket 130 is operated.

Specifically, the lens bracket 130 is formed with a second opening 131, and a plurality of pressing protrusions 132 protruding from the lower portion of the lens bracket 130 so as to press the decompression switch 112, And includes a projection 133. An assembly hole 133a having a female screw hole is formed on the lower surface of the guide projection 133. [

The guide bracket 120 is formed with a guide hole 133a at a position corresponding to the guide protrusion 133. The guide protrusion 133 inserted into the guide hole 133a is inserted into the guide hole 133a through a screw The lens bracket 130 is elastically supported at the upper end of the button bracket 120. [

In this embodiment, a lens cover 133 of glass or acrylic material is attached to the second opening 131. [

Preferably, in the present invention, the lens bracket 130 is a conductive material, and functions as a human body detecting sensor, so that a signal can be activated when a direct contact is made with the user's body.

Specifically, the decompression switch 112 may process a signal by a touch sensing unit (not shown) provided in the smartphone, and may be contacted with a conductive lens bracket 130 together with a pressure signal of the decompression switch 112 It is possible to prevent the malfunction of the call button by activating the signal by detecting a change in electrical conductivity (resistance) caused by the body.

In another modification, the lens bracket may be provided with a fingerprint recognition module capable of recognizing the fingerprint, so that the user can recognize the fingerprint together with the physical contact, thereby activating the emergency call signal.
