To obtain a portable telephone set with which it is easy to elongate and store away an antenna. A portable telephone set comprises a main body, an antenna (3a) appended to the main body so as to be extendible or collapsible with respect to the main body, a control panel (5a) mounted on an external surface of the main body, control means (20) for extending the antenna from the main body when the control panel is operated to set up a call, and storing the antenna into the main body when the control panel is operated to terminate a call; and driving means (7) for extending or collapsing the antenna from or into the main body under the control of the control means.
Description
Portable telephone set.
The present invention relates to a portable telephone set, and particularly to a portable telephone set having an antenna appended to a main body such that it can be extended and collapsed with respect to the main body.
In portable telephones, a number of antennae used for transmission/reception are appended to a main body such that they can be extended and collapsed with respect to the main bodies.
In a portable telephone set of such type, a user extends the antenna by pulling it from the main body or collapse it by pushing it into the main body, by his/her one hand, while holding the main body by the other hand. As described above, the extension and collapse of the antenna require manipulation by using both hands. If one of the hands is used for another purpose, the extension/collapse operation cannot be sufficiently performed.
Further, although it is possible to make a call without extending the antenna from the main body, a radiowave with sufficient intensity might not be sent, or sufficiently high reception sensitivity might not be obtained.
Further, if the antenna is not collapsed into the main body after the termination of call, the antenna may be easily damaged.
The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and has its object to realize a portable telephone set with an antenna which can be easily extended and collapsed.
Accordingly, the invention as means of solving the problems will be as described bellow.
(1) The invention in claim 1 is a portable telephone set comprising a main body, an antenna appended to the main body so as to be extendible or collapsible with respect to the main body, and a control panel mounted on an external surface of the main body, wherein when a call is set up via operation of the control panel, the antenna is extended from the main body, and when the call is terminated via operation of the control panel, the antenna is collapsed into the main body.
In the portable telephone set according to the above invention, when an operation is made via the control panel to start a call, the antenna is extended from the main body, and when an operation is made via the control panel to terminate the call, the antenna is collapsed into the main body. Even if the user cannot use both hands, he/she can easily extend and collapse the antenna.
(2) The invention in claim 2 is a portable telephone set comprising a main body, an antenna appended to the main body so as to be extendible or collapsible with respect to the main body, and a control panel mounted on an external surface of the main body, which comprises: control means for detecting an operation state of the control panel, extending the antenna from the main body when the control panel is operated to set up a call, and storing the antenna into the main body when the control panel is operated to terminate a call; and driving means for extending or collapsing the antenna from or into the main body under the control of the control means.
In the portable telephone set according to the above invention, the control means extends the antenna from the main body when an operation is made via the control panel to start a call, and the control means collapses the antenna into the main body when an operation is made via the control panel to terminate the call. The driving means performs driving based on the control of the control means. Even if the user cannot use both hands, he/she can easily extend and collapse the antenna. (3) The invention in claim 3 is a portable telephone set comprising a main body, an antenna appended to the main body so as to be extendible or collapsible with respect to the main body, and a covering body to cover a control panel mounted on an external surface of the main body, whose feature is that: when the covering body covers the control panel, the antenna is collapsed into the main body, and when the covering body is removed from the control panel, the antenna is extended from the main body.
In the portable telephone set according to the above invention, the antenna is extended from the main body when the covering body covers the control panel, while the antenna is collapsed into the main body when the covering body is removed from the control panel. By the extension and collapse operations as above, even if the user cannot use both hands, he/she can easily extend and collapse the antenna.
(4) The invention in claim 4 is the portable telephone set as described in claim 3 comprising: a first slider connected to the antenna; a wire connected to the covering body which is rotatably mounted to the main body; a second slider connected to the wire; and sliding movement
transmitting means, placed between the first and second sliders, causing the sliders to move in opposite directions and transmitting therewith a sliding movement.
In the portable telephone set according to the above invention, the wire and the transmitting means transmit the movement of the covering body to the antenna connected to the slider means, which realizes the extension and collapse of the antenna.
By the extension and collapse operations as above, even if the user cannot use both hands, he/she can easily extend and collapse the antenna.
Next, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
Fig. 1 is a block diagram showing the construction relating to antenna driving in a portable telephone set according to a first embodiment of the present invention. In Fig. 1, reference numeral 2a denotes a main body of the portable telephone set; 3a, an antenna element (hereinafter, simply referred to as an "antenna"); 3b, a stopper provided under the antenna; 3c and 3d, reflectors indicating predetermined positions; 5a, a control panel having various keys; 7, a driver to extend/collapse the antenna 3a; 20, a CPU as control means for controlling the respective parts of the portable telephone set; 21, an antenna case for holding the antenna 3a; 22, a photocoupler for detecting an extended position and a collapsed position of the antenna 3a by using the reflectors 3c and 3d. Note that the control panel 5a has a call button to start a call, a hang-up button to terminate a call, ten keys and the like. Further, the driver 7 comprises an ultrasonic motor, a combination of a spindle motor and a drive gear or the like to drive the antenna 3a.
Note that if the driver 7 comprises an ultrasonic motor, a driving surface of the ultrasonic motor is set along the element of the antenna 3a. Further, if the driver 7 comprises a spindle motor and a worm gear, the driver has a construction as shown in Fig. 2. Fig. 2(a) shows a cross section of the driver 7. Fig. 2(b) shows a front view of the driver 7.
In Fig. 2, a worm 72 rotates by a rotation shaft 71 of a motor 70. By the rotation of the worm 72, a gear 73 constructing a worm wheel having an axis in a direction orthogonal to the axis of the worm 72 rotates. Further, a gear 75 engaged with the gear 73 rotates in a direction opposite to a rotational direction of the gear 73. Note that Fig. 2(b) does not show a portion where the gear 73 and the gear 75 engage with each other since the portion is on the rear of the antenna 3a.
Then, a roller 74 coaxial with respect to the gear 73 and the roller 76 coaxial with respect to the gear 75 rotate in the rotational directions of the respective gears. The roller 74 and the roller 76 rotate in opposite directions, and the antenna 3a held between these two rollers is driven in an extending or collapsing direction. A friction force necessary for driving the antenna and slip necessary for manual extension/collapse on the antenna 3a directly made by the user can be obtained by forming the rollers 74 and 76 with elastic material.
Next, the operation of the portable telephone set of the present embodiment will be described with reference to a flowchart of Fig. 3. Note that the flowchart of Fig. 3 shows a subroutine to perform antenna extension/collapse processing, called at predetermined timing. The CPU 20 monitors the control panel 5a, waiting for depression of the call button on the control panel 5a upon reception of incoming call (call operation made to an incoming-call), or depression of the call button on the control panel 5a upon call origination (call operation made for call origination) (SI and S3 in Fig. 3).
If a key code indicative of depression of the call button is outputted from the control panel 5a by an incoming or call-origination operation (YES at SI or S2 in Fig. 3), the CPU 20 performs antenna extension processing (S3 in Fig. 3).
In the antenna extension processing, the CPU 20 provides an antenna extension command to the driver 7. The driver 7 that receives the antenna extension command drives the antenna 3a in a direction Aa by rotation of an ultrasonic motor (not shown) or the motor 70 in Fig. 2.
At this time, when the photocoupler 22 detects the reflector 3c, the CPU 20 provides a drive stop command to the driver 7. The driver 7 stops the antenna extension operation. In this case, as a stop torque has occurred at the antenna 3a by contact with the ultrasonic motor (not shown) or holding by the rollers 74 and 76, the antenna 3a does not return to the collapsing direction by gravity or the like.
Further, when the CPU 20 detects that the user has terminated communication and depressed the hang-up button (YES at S4 in Fig. 3), the CPU performs antenna collapse processing (S5 in Fig. 3).
In the antenna collapse processing, the CPU 20 provides an antenna collapse command to the driver 7. The driver 7 that receives the antenna collapse command drives the antenna 3a in a direction Ba by rotation of the ultrasonic motor (not shown) or the motor 70 in Fig. 2.
At this time, when the photocoupler 22 detects the reflector 3d, the CPU 20 provides a drive stop command to the driver 7. The driver 7 stops the antenna collapse
operation. In this case, as a stop torque has occurred at the antenna 3a by contact with the ultrasonic motor (not shown) or holding by the rollers 74 and 76 in Fig. 2, the antenna 3a does not return in the extended direction by gravity or the like.
As described above, the antenna 3a automatically extends or collapses interlocked with normal call operation or call termination operation. Accordingly, even if the user cannot use both hands, he/she can easily extend and collapse the antenna. This solves the problem of reduction of sensitivity in communication or the like. Further, damage to the antenna in a case where the user forgot to collapse the antenna can be prevented.
Further, as the rollers holding the antenna have appropriate slip, the antenna 3a can be manually extended or collapsed as in the case of conventional art. Further, such slip can prevent damage to the antenna 3a or the gears even if the antenna 3a hits some obstacle upon extension or collapse operation.
Further, in the above description, the antenna extension operation and collapse operation are stopped based on the result of detection by the photocoupler 22, however, the operations may be stopped after they are continued for a predetermined period. Further, it may be arranged such that a current consumed at the motor is monitored, and when an excessive current flows, the operation is stopped or driving in an opposite direction is made. Note that if such operations are employed, the photocoupler 22 may be omitted.
Further, it may be arranged such that a sensor to detect peripheral brightness is provided, and if the brightness is at a predetermined level upon reception of incoming call, the antenna is extended without waiting for the depression of the call button. In this case, if the brightness has a predetermined or less value, as the portable telephone set is held in a bag or the like, the antenna is not extended. Accordingly, if the brightness has a predetermined or less value upon reception of incoming call, the antenna is extended by depression of the call button.
Further, if a call has been originated but the line has been busy and the call origination is made again, the hang-up button must be depressed before the second call origination. That is, even when the user knows the line is busy and depresses the hang-up button, if call origination is made immediately, it is not necessary to collapse the antenna. Accordingly, if the line is busy and the hang-up button is depressed, the CPU 20 delays the antenna collapse. By this arrangement, if call origination is made immediately after the depression of the hang-up button, call origination can be made in a status where the antenna is still extended. Further, if call origination is not made soon, the antenna is collapsed after a
predetermined number of seconds. Note that the CPU 20 may perform similar processing in a case where communication is terminated due to deterioration of radiowave conditions.
Note that in the above-described embodiment, the motor 70 employed in the driver 7 may be also used as a vibrator upon incoming call. In this case, the slight extension and collapse of the antenna 3a are repeated by repeating forward rotation and reverse rotation of the motor 70 at short periods, and vibration similar to that caused by a vibrator can be produced. This can omit a motor only for the vibrator.
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. A portable telephone set la has a main body 2a, an antenna 3a, a display panel
4a, a control panel 5a and a covering body 6a as shown in Fig. 4.
The main body 2a has an approximately rectangular parallelepiped shape. The antenna 3a is appended to the main body 2a such that it can extend (slide in an arrow Aa direction) and collapse (slide in an arrow Ba direction) from a top surface of the main body 2a with respect to the main body 2a.
The display panel 4a and the operation panel 5a are provided on an upper part and a lower part of a front surface of the main body 2a.
The covering body 6a covers and protects the control panel 5a provided outside the front surface lower part of the main body 2a. The covering body 6a is pivotally supported at a lower end of the front surface of the main body 2a, and is rotatable with respect to the main body 2a (in arrow Ca and arrow Da directions).
The portable telephone set la has driving means 7a which collapses the antenna 3a into the main body 2a when the covering body 6a is rotated in the arrow Ca direction to cover the control panel 5a, while extends the antenna 3a from the main body 2a when the covering body 6a is rotated in the arrow Da direction to release the covered state of the control panel 5a.
That is, the portable telephone set la has sliders 8a and 9a having sliding directions provided in extending and collapsing directions of the antenna 3a, as the driving means 7a, and a wire 10a for force transmission and transmitting means 11a. The slider 8a is held by a guide 12 fixed on the inner wall side of the main body
2, and slides in the arrow Aa and arrow Ba directions. The antenna 3a is fixed and held on an upper surface of the slider 8a.
The slider 9a is held by the guide 12 fixed on the inner wall side of the main body 2, and slides in the arrow Aa and arrow Ba directions. One end of the wire 10a is fixed and held on a bottom surface of the slider 9a.
The other end of the wire 10a is connected to the covering body 6a. Accordingly, when the covering body 6a is rotated in the arrow Ca or Da directions, transmits the forces of the rotation to slide the slider 9a in the arrow Aa and arrow Ba directions.
The transmitting means 11a causes the slider 8a and the slider 9a to move in opposite sliding directions and transmits a sliding movement.
The transmitting means 11a mainly comprises a rack gear 12a and a rack gear 13a respectively formed on the sliders 8a and the slider 9a, a pinion gear 14a and a pinion gear 15a, respectively engaged with the rack gears 12a and the rack gears 13a, and further, engage with each other.
Note that the ratio between the number of teeth of the pinion gear 14a and that of the pinion gear 15a is approximately 1 to 2.5. The portable telephone set la has the above construction. Hereinbelow, the operation of the portable telephone set la will be described with the driving means 7a as the main part.
When the user uses the portable telephone la, the user holds the main body 2a in his/her hand, and rotates the covering body 6a in the arrow Da direction with respect to the main body 2a to release the covered state of the operation panel 5a. The covering body 6a rotated in the arrow Da direction slides the slider 9a in the arrow Ba direction via the wire 10a.
The slider 9a slid in the arrow Ba direction rotates the pinion gear 15a in the arrow Ca direction.
The pinion gear 15a rotated in the arrow Ca direction rotates the pinion gear 14a in the arrow Da direction at an angular velocity in correspondence with the gear ratio.
The pinion gear 14a rotated in the arrow Da direction slides the slider 8a in the arrow Aa direction.
Accordingly, the antenna 3a fixed and held on the upper surface of the slider 8a slides with the slider 8a slid in the arrow Aa direction. As a result, the antenna 3a is extended with respect to the main body 2a from the collapsed state.
The user can use the portable telephone set la with the antenna 3a in the extended state with respect to the main body 2a.
On the other hand, when the user finishes the use of the portable telephone set la, he/she rotates the covering body 6a in the arrow Ca direction with respect to the main body 2a, to set the control panel 5a in the covered state.
The covering body 6a rotated in the arrow Ca direction slides the slider 9a in the arrow Aa direction via the wire 10a.
The slider 9a slid in the arrow Aa direction rotates the pinion gear 15a in the arrow Da direction.
The pinion gear 15a rotated in the arrow Da direction rotates the pinion gear 14a in the arrow Ca direction at an angular velocity in correspondence with the gear ratio. The pinion gear 14a rotated in the arrow Ca direction slides the slider 8a in the arrow Ba direction.
Accordingly, the antenna 3a fixed and held on the upper surface of the slider 8a slides with the slider 8a in the arrow Ba direction. As a result, the antenna 3a is set to the collapsed state from extended state with respect to the main body 2a. The user can put the portable telephone set la with the antenna 3a in the collapsed state with respect to the main body 2a in a bag or the like and bring it with him/her.
Note that in the portable telephone set la, the antenna 3a is extended and collapsed by operating the covering body 6a in the above-described use, however, the covering body 6a can be opened and closed by operating the antenna 3a. As described above, as the antenna 3a is extended or collapsed interlocked with the operation of the covering body upon call, even if the user cannot use both hands, the antenna can be easily extended or collapsed. Accordingly, the reduction of sensitivity upon communication can be solved. Further, damage to the antenna in a case where the user forgot to collapse the antenna can be prevented. As described in detail above, the invention of the portable telephone set described in the specification attains the following effects.
(1) As the antenna automatically extends or collapses interlocked with general call operation or call termination operation, even if a user cannot use both hands, he/she can easily extend and collapse the antenna. Accordingly, the problem of the reduction of sensitivity upon communication can be solved. Further, damage to the antenna in a case where the user forgot to collapse the antenna can be prevented.
(2) As the antenna 3a automatically extends or collapses interlocked with the operation of the covering body upon communication, even if a user cannot use both hands, he/she can easily extend and collapse the antenna. Accordingly, the problem of the reduction of sensitivity upon
communication can be solved. Further, damage to the antenna in a case where the user forgot to collapse the antenna can be prevented.
