Description

Specification

Arm-mounted mobile phone

Technical field

The present invention relates to a wrist-mounted mobile phone which is easy to operate and can clearly receive a received voice.

Background art

In recent years, mobile phones have become widespread, and it is common to store mobile phones in pockets or bags or to attach them to bands on the waist of the body. Was.

By the way, in recent years, with the advance of microelectronics, mobile phones have been greatly reduced in size, and wristwatch-type mobile phones, that is, those in which the mobile phone is incorporated in the body of a wristwatch, have been developed. According to this, the above-mentioned drawback can be overcome because the mobile phone usually also has a clock function for displaying time. As one example, there is Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 6-1130000 “List telephone”. According to this, the telephone body 4 is attached to the wrist by the band 10, and the upper layer 12 hinged to the band 10 is rotated by about 90 degrees toward the palm at the time of calling or receiving. Then, the speaker 20 reaches the center of the palm, further brings the palm closer to the ear, and listens to the voice of the other party by the soundproofing effect of the palm and the outer ear.

However, according to the above conventional example, when the upper layer 12 is rotated toward the palm side, a relatively large distance of 90 degrees is manually moved back and forth over an obstacle such as a bulge at the base of the thumb. Since it must be rotated, there is a drawback that operation is very troublesome and slow, and there is a drawback that it is difficult to automate the rotation operation of the upper layer 12 around the palm. Since it is always exposed on the upper surface of the band 10, it has the disadvantage that it easily hits other objects when the arm is moved, and is likely to be damaged. Thus, the upper layer 12 seems to be flexible so that the band 10 can also be arranged along the circumferential direction, typically following the circumferential extension of the band 10 (if not, the upper layer 1 2 protrudes to the side of the wrist And get in the way), then the upper layer 1 2 in the center of the palm There is a drawback in that if it is rotated in the direction of the hand, it hangs away from the palm according to the angle of the hand and the hanging position is not stable.

In addition, the upper layer 12 is attached to a substantially central portion of the band 10, and the band is originally easily displaced along the direction in which the arm extends, so that the upper layer 12 is also easily displaced, so that The position of the loudspeaker 20 with respect to the palm is also easily displaced, so that there is a disadvantage that it may be difficult to actually listen.

Disclosure of the invention

An object of the present invention is to provide a wrist-mounted mobile phone which solves the technical problems of the conventional example.

Therefore, one configuration of the present invention is an arm mounting type having at least a telephone main body (2) having a receiving and transmitting circuit and a band (4) attached to the telephone main body and attaching the telephone main body to an arm. A mobile phone provided with a microphone (7) and a telescopic arm (8, 26) having a listening speaker (9) at the tip thereof (3) provided separately from the telephone body; (3) is connected to the telephone body (2) through the band (4) by being attached to the holding portion (21) of the band (4). Is stored inside the accessory (3), but when transmitting or receiving, it jumps out of the accessory (3) and extends, and the speaker (9) moves to the approximate center of the palm (24). An arm-mounted mobile phone characterized by the following.

In this case, the telescopic arm (8) can also serve as a receiving and transmitting antenna.

Further, the position of the attachment (3) in the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the band (4) can be adjusted and set with respect to the holding portion (21) of the band.

The telescopic arm (8) is configured by coaxially arranging at least two-stage arm elements (8a, 8b, 8c), and the first-stage arm element (8a) The attachment (3) further includes a rotary knob (6) disposed coaxially with the arm (8) and having a second screw portion (6a). The first and second screw portions (8d, 6a) are screwed together, and the knob (6) is rotated appropriately. Thus, the axial position of the first-stage arm element (8a) can be adjusted and set.

The telescopic arm (8, 26) is urged by a spring (10) in a direction in which the telescopic arm extends, and the attachment further has a predetermined button (11). When the button is pressed, the locking by the locking mechanism (12) is released, and the telescopic arm (8, 26) can be urged and linearly extended. Also, the telescopic arm (8) can be linearly extended or retracted, or the telescopic arm (26) is usually folded and stored in the accessory (3) inside (5d), At the time of reception, the folded state can be opened and extended.

Another configuration of the present invention is an arm-attachable portable device having at least a telephone body (2-11) having a receiving and transmitting circuit, and a band (4) attached to the telephone body and attaching the telephone body to an arm. In a telephone, the telephone body further comprises a microphone

(7) and a telescopic arm (8) having a listening speaker (9) at the tip, and the telescopic arm (8) is usually housed inside the telephone body (2-1). An arm-attached mobile phone characterized in that the phone (9) jumps out of the phone body at the time of calling or receiving, and the speaker (9) moves to substantially the center of the palm (24).

In this case, the telescopic arm (8) can also serve as a transmitting and receiving antenna.

The telephone body (2-1) can adjust and set the position of the band (4) in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the band (4) with respect to the holder of the band.

The telescopic arm (8) is configured by coaxially arranging at least two-stage arm elements (8a, 8b, 8c), and the first-stage arm element (8a) A rotary adjusting knob (6) having a first screw portion (8d), the telephone body (2-1) being coaxial with the arm (8), and having a second screw portion (6a). The first and second screw portions (8d, 6a) are screwed together, and by appropriately rotating the knob (6), the first-stage arm element (8a ) Can be adjusted and set. Further, the telescopic arm (8) is urged by a spring (10) in a direction in which the telescopic arm (8) extends, and the appendage further has a predetermined button, and the button is pressed when transmitting or receiving. As a result, the locking by the locking mechanism (12) is released, and the telescopic arm (8) can be urged and linearly extended.

Further, the telescopic arm (8) can linearly expand and contract.

The invention's effect

According to the configuration of the present invention, there are the following advantages.

① In both cases of telescopic arm and linear telescopic arm, the telescopic arm 8 extends the shortest distance vertically to the center of the palm from the bottom of the palm to the center of the palm through the center line of the palm. Shorter operation time and faster transmission and reception compared to the conventional example where the upper layer is rotated relatively long when rotating the upper layer and there is a risk that the raised part of the palm may interfere with the rotation. Can be dealt with.

(2) The telescopic arm 8 is usually housed inside the accessory or the phone body, so there is no risk of damaging the arm even if the mobile phone accidentally hits another object.

③ When the telescopic arm 8 expands and contracts in a straight line, the linear telescopic mechanism is simple. For example, the arm 8 is automatically extended by simply pressing the button 11 to automate the operation. Becomes easier. In addition, since the telescopic arm 8 can easily have rigidity particularly in the case of linear expansion and contraction, the speaker position can be stabilized and good listening can be performed without sagging during extension.

ため Since the position of the attachment 3 in the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the band 4 can be adjusted with respect to the holding portion 21 of the band, the attachment 3 can be adjusted according to the size of the palm of the operator. The extended and protruding position of the speaker can be adjusted and set to the optimum position, so the range of application is wide and convenient.

螺 By screwing the adjusting rotary knob 6 and the first-stage arm element 8 a of the telescopic arm 8, the axial position of the first-stage arm element 8 a is also adjusted and set. The extended position of the loudspeaker can be adjusted and set to the optimum position, so the range of application is further increased and it is convenient. 付属 Both the attachment 3 and the phone body 2-1 are solid objects having a predetermined volume and fit to the skin of the wrist, so that they are not easily displaced. Therefore, the speaker when the telescopic arms 8, 26 are extended. The position of 9, 26a with respect to the center of the palm is stable, and the voice of the other party can always be heard well.

⑦ When the telescopic arm 8 has a rod shape, the speaker 9 at the tip of the arm 8 can be inserted into the outer ear recess through a notch (not shown) at the lower end of the recess of the outer ear 25. Therefore, very clear listening is possible.

場合 When the phone body and the accessory are provided separately, they are mainly suitable for wearing by men, and when they are provided integrally, they are mainly suitable for women, so that they can be used properly.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

A first embodiment of the wrist-mounted mobile phone according to the present invention shown in FIGS. 1 to 7 will be described.

In FIG. 1, an arm-attached mobile phone 1 generally has a built-in receiving and transmitting circuit (not shown) and a telephone 2a having characters or numerals for transmitting a telephone and for a time display clock. It has a main body 2, an attachment 3, and a band 4 connecting the main body 2 and the attachment 3.

Attachment 3 has a microphone 7 at one end of a case 5 consisting of upper and lower case halves 5a and 5b which are attached to each other by screws (not shown) as shown in FIGS. 8 and 10, for example. And a pair of left guide projections 5c on both sides of the lower case half 5b. (In FIGS. 1 to 7, only the appearance of the case 5 is shown.) In FIGS. 2 to 4, reference numeral 8 denotes a telescopic arm housed inside the case, for example, as shown in FIG. It consists of a cylindrical first-stage arm 8a (fixed to case 5), a second-stage arm 8b, and a third-stage arm 8c, which are attached to the distal end of the third-stage arm 8c. Speaker 9 protrudes from the other end of case 5.

11 is a push button, which is attached to one end of a hook 12 rotatably mounted in the upper case half 5a and exposed to the outside of the case 5 as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, for example. The hook 12a at the other end of the hook is urged by a spring 13 (see FIG. 10) to engage with the distal end of the third arm 8c, and The third stage arm 8b, 8c is prevented from moving outward by the coil spring 10 inside it. Stopped.

The band 4 has a convex clasp 14 and a concave clasp 15 (see FIG. 1) for locking both ends of the band when the band is wound around an arm (wrist), and At the substantially central portion in the longitudinal direction, for example, as shown in FIGS. 8 to 10 (illustration is omitted in other drawings), an attachment holding portion 21 is provided. The attachment holder 21 is flat and has a central recess 21a and a pair of left and right guide grooves 21b. In FIG. 8, the attachment 3 is attached to the attachment holder 21 by sliding the guide protrusions 5c on both sides thereof into the guide grooves 21b on both sides, and at a predetermined position by a pair of screws 22. The guide projection 5c is tightened and fixed.

In this case, the assembling procedure is as follows. First, only the lower case half 5b is attached to the attachment holder 21 using the guide protrusions 5c on both sides, and then the stopper is inserted into the case 5b. 2 3 (see FIG. 10) is mounted so that it slightly protrudes downward from the center hole 5 d of the case 5 b and enters the center recess 21 a of the metal fitting 21, and then the arm 8 and the upper side The case half 5a is attached. This is because when the stopper 23 protrudes downward from the lower case half 5b, the stopper 23 interferes with the upper surface of the metal fitting to perform the slide engagement by the guide protrusion 5c and the guide groove 21b. Because there is no. The function of the stopper 23 is that even if the screw 22 is inadvertently loosened, the stopper 23 is attached to the attachment holder 21 with the stopper 23 attached to the upper and lower inner ends of the central recess 21 a. It can only slide within the range of contact with the part (the left and right ends in FIG. 10) and can be prevented from falling off from the attachment holding part 21. In addition, since the position of the attachment 3 can be appropriately adjusted within the above-mentioned sliding range with respect to the attachment holding portion 21, the position where the arm 8 is fully extended (that is, the position of the speaker 9) is determined by the person wearing the telephone. It can be changed as needed, and the range of application is wide and convenient.

Thus, when the band 4 is locked around a man's arm, especially the wrist, the telephone body 2 is positioned outside the wrist and the accessory 3 is positioned inside the arm, as shown in FIGS. To be. This is because the letters or numbers on the upper panel 2a of the telephone body 2 usually have a time display function at the same time as the number selection function at the time of making a phone call. Wear it outside your wrist Therefore, as described above, the telephone body 2 is positioned outside the wrist. In the above embodiment, since the telephone main body 2 and the accessory 3 are separately provided, the battery (including the charging ground) is provided in either the main body 2 or the accessory 3 and both of them are connected to the band 4. It is only necessary to connect by wiring (not shown) that passes through the inside, which increases the degree of freedom in design. Further, since the circuit on the side of the telephone body 2 and the circuit on the microphone 7 and the telescopic arm 8 (when also serving as an antenna) can be arranged at a predetermined distance via the above-mentioned wiring, the influence of electromagnetic waves between circuits can be avoided. In particular, the performance of the circuit of the telephone body 2 can be favorably maintained.

Next, the operation of the wrist-mounted mobile phone will be described.

When sending or receiving (receiving is detected by the telephone body 2 being vibrated by, for example, a vibration function), the operator first presses the push button 11 of the accessory 3. Then, the hooks 12 operate to release the lock of the telescopic arm 8. Thereby, the telescopic arm 8 is automatically and linearly extended by the spring 10 from the contracted position in the case 5 to the extended position shown in FIGS. 2 to 4 toward the center of the palm 10. .

In this case, the arm 8 may be automatically extended to the final position, or may be automatically extended to an intermediate position and then manually pulled out to reach the final position. Alternatively, the arm 3 may be pulled out and pushed in manually over the entire stroke without providing the push buttons 11 and the hooks 12 and the like.

Thus, as shown in FIG. 4, the speaker 9 moves to the approximate center of the palm 24. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the operator brings the palm 24 close to the outer ear 25 and covers the outer ear 25 with the palm 24, so that a closed space is provided between the both 24 and 25. To form

In this state, at the time of transmission, the operator touches the numbers or characters on the display panel 2 to start transmission, and the voice of the operator is transmitted from a predetermined antenna through the microphone 7.

As for listening to the other party's voice, noise from outside may be in the palm of your hand. And the outside ear 25, and the voice of the other party is hard to leak out of the enclosed space, so that the voice of the other party can be clearly heard. In this case, the speaker 9 at the distal end of the arm 8 may enter the outer ear recess through a notch (not shown) at the lower end of the recess of the outer ear 25. I can hear it clearly.

In addition, as described above, the reason why the microphone speaker 7 is exposed as compared with the case where the listening speaker 9 is covered by the closed space is that microphones generally have higher sensitivity than speakers, and hence howling occurs. Otherwise, it will function well even if exposed to the outside.

After the end of the call, the arm 8 is manually pushed in, stored in the attachment 3 again, and locked by the hooks 12.

Next, FIGS. 13 and 14 show the first state and the second state of the second embodiment of the arm-mounted mobile phone, respectively, and the same parts as those in FIG. The description is omitted. In FIG. 13, a male screw 8 d is formed on the outer periphery of the cylindrical lower end of the first-stage arm 8 a, and the male screw portion 8 d is formed in the cylindrical shape of the adjusting rotary knob 6 integrally formed with the microphone 7. It is screwed into the female screw part 6a.

Therefore, by appropriately rotating the rotary knob 6, the position of the second and third arms 8b and 8c is maintained, and only the first arm 8a is moved upward and downward with respect to the case 5. Position can be adjusted. In other words, the second and third tier arms 8b and 8c have their lower ends extended to positions where the lower ends thereof are hooked to the upper ends of the first and second tier arms 8a and 8b, respectively. The length of protrusion from case 5 (ie, the position of speaker 9 protruding from case 5) can be adjusted. For example, as shown in FIG. 13, when the first-stage arm 8a is at the lowest position in the figure, the position where the entire arm 8 is fully extended is relatively low as shown in FIG. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 14, when the first-stage arm 8a is at the uppermost position in the figure, the position where the entire arm 8 is fully extended is a relatively high position as shown in FIG. According to this, in addition to the speaker position adjustment by sliding the case 5 with respect to the attachment holder 21, the speaker position adjustment in a larger range becomes possible, which is very convenient. Next, FIGS. 17 and 18 show FIGS. 17 and 18, respectively, of the arm-mounted mobile phone according to the present invention. FIG. 13 shows a state in which a telescopic arm in an appendage part of the third embodiment expands and contracts, and the same parts as those in FIGS. 5 to 7 are denoted by the same reference numerals and description thereof is omitted. In FIG. 17, reference numeral 26 denotes a folding telescopic arm, and a listening speaker 26 a is provided at the tip of the folding arm. Usually, a concave portion 5 e (5 e ( (See Fig. 18)

At the time of transmission or reception, as shown in Fig. 18, the arm 26 at the folding position 26-1 is manually raised to release the folding, and after passing through the position 26-2, the last 2 Move to position 6—3. Of course, at this time, the speaker 26a extends to the center of the palm 24 as in FIGS. 3 and 4, and the same effect can be obtained.

Further, the arm 26 can be automatically released and released from the folded state by pressing a predetermined button (not shown) provided on the accessory or the telephone body in the same manner as in the above embodiment without manual operation. A return operation may be performed.

Next, Fig. 19 shows a third embodiment of the wrist-mounted type mobile phone according to the present invention, and the same parts as those in Fig. 1 are denoted by the same reference numerals and description thereof is omitted. This embodiment is a mobile phone for women in particular. The difference from the embodiment of FIG. 1 is that instead of the attachment 3 shown in FIG. In addition, a speaker 9 (provided at the end of a telescopic arm, not shown) is provided on one side of the main body 2-1, and a microphone 7 is provided on the other side.

Thus, when band 4 is locked around a woman's arm, especially a wrist, telephone body 2-1 is positioned inside the wrist. This is because women usually wear their wristwatches so that their display surface is on the outside of their wrists, so that the phone body 2-1 that also serves as a time display function is positioned inside the wrist as described above. You do it. When a predetermined button (not shown) is pressed during transmission or reception, the telescopic arm extends toward the center of the palm 24 (not shown), and the same effects as those of the above embodiments can be obtained. Can be done.

Also, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 19, it is a matter of course that a slide-type position adjusting mechanism as shown in FIG. 8 or an adjusting rotary knob as shown in FIG. 13 may be provided. Further, in each of the above embodiments, the vibration function is used as a method of notifying the reception, but any means may be used as an alternative means for notifying the incoming call, such as sounding an electronic sound or illuminating the panel 2a. Of course.

Further, in each of the above-described embodiments, when a call is made, the panel 2a is set to be set in the evening mode. May be performed.

Further, in each of the above embodiments, it is needless to say that the telescopic arm 8 may also serve as the receiving and transmitting antenna as an antenna, or that the antenna may be provided separately from the telescopic arm 8. Of course.
