Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a wireless device suitable for both mobile and vehicle installation.

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 5 shows an example of a conventional wireless device. In the figure, 1 is the main body of the wireless device, 2 is its telescopic antenna, 3 is a battery part, 4
Is an operation knob such as a volume, 5 is an indicator, 6 is an upper surface portion,
7 is a step, 8 is a holding part, 9 is an adapter, 10 is a storage part, 11
Is an operation knob such as a volume control, 12 is a display, and 13 is a hand microphone.

With the above configuration, when using the mobile phone, the user holds the holding portion 8 of the wireless device body 1 and extends the telescopic antenna 2 to make a call. At this time, the volume 4 on the upper surface portion 6 and the indicator are used as necessary. On the other hand, when the vehicle is mounted on the vehicle, the wireless device main body 1 is stored in the storage portion 10 of the adapter 9 fixed to the dashboard in the vehicle.
Insert up to the step 7 and use the hand microphone 13, operating knob 11, and display 12 to talk and operate.

In this way, even the conventional wireless device can be used both for mobile and on-vehicle.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in the above-mentioned conventional example, when mounted on a vehicle, the directions or sizes of the display unit 5 and the operation knob 4 are difficult to use due to restrictions in carrying, and therefore, as the display unit 12 and the operation knob 11. Had to be provided separately on the adapter 9. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a connector for transmitting display information and operation information between the portable wireless device 1 and the adapter 9. Further, the adapter 9 has some problems in that it has a large size and a high cost because some functions overlap with those of the mobile wireless device 1.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a wireless device having a small size and excellent operability.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a wireless device unit with a flat-shaped wireless main body unit and a holder that also serves as a removable battery, an antenna storage unit, and a portable hand strap. The wireless main body is provided with an operation unit such as a display and an operation knob.

Since the present invention is configured as described above, the effect of sharing the operation unit between the wireless device unit and the adapter, the downsizing of the wireless device unit when the adapter is attached by separating the wireless main unit and the holder, and the operation unit of the wireless main unit Since it is attached to the side of the display, the effect of making the display and operating surface larger can be obtained.

Embodiments The construction of an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In these figures, 20 is a rectangular parallelepiped wireless main body, 30 is a holder, and 40 is an adapter. First, Fig. 1 shows the wireless main unit
20 shows the appearance of the holder 20 and the holder 30 when disassembled, and shows the radio main body 20 having a rectangular parallelepiped plate shape and a radio circuit housed therein, and the U-shaped holder 30. 21 is the wireless main body 20
An operation unit equipped with a display 22 such as an LED provided on the side surface of the rectangular parallelepiped and a knob 23 such as a volume and a switch, 24 is a microphone below the operation unit 21, 25 is an external connector for the microphone, and 26 is a switch between transmission and reception. A press switch 27 to be operated is a speaker above the wireless main body 20. In addition, a battery 31 is built in the holder 30, and a whip antenna 32 is provided on the top.
Is installed. Reference numeral 33 is a hand strap, and 34 and 35 are connectors and screws for electrically and mechanically connecting the holder 30 and the wireless main body 20. Further, in FIG. 1, with respect to the holder 30, a concave guide rail 28 for inserting the upper and lower surfaces thereof, a screw hole 28a provided in the inner portion of the guide rail 28, a connector 29 forming a pair with the external connector 25, and the same. Guide pin 29a, guide pin 3 provided on the holder 30 side
6. A guide hole 37 that is paired with the guide pin 29a is provided. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a state in which the wireless main body 20 and the holder 30 are combined.

With the above configuration, in order to mount the holder 30 on the wireless main body section 20, the guide pins 36 on the upper and lower sides of the holder 30 are attached to the guide rail 28.
The guide pin 29a into the guide hole 37 by pushing it in until the side of the wireless main unit 20 comes into close contact with the inside of the U-shape of the holder 30.
Are fitted together, and at the same time, the external connector 34 and the connector 29 are connected. By pressing the screw 35 in this state, the holder 30 is fixed to the wireless main body 20. Therefore, when carrying, as shown in FIG. 2, the hand strap 33 is carried on the hand, the radio main body 20 is carried, the radio wave is transmitted / received by the whip antenna 32, and the display 22 and the knob 23 are used to control the radio device. Microphone 24 and speaker 27 as well as operation and confirmation
You can make a call using. FIG. 3 shows the appearance as seen from below in the state of FIG.

Next, in order to attach the wireless body 20 to the adapter 40 when mounted on the vehicle, as shown in FIG. 4, the holder 30 is once pulled out halfway from the wireless body 20, and the external connector 34 and the connector
29 is separated, and then the holder 30 is pushed again into the guide rail 28 and rotated downward while the screw 35 is fitted in the screw hole 28a to form a leg portion, and further, an opening portion is formed on the upper side and the front side. Push in the guide rails (protrusions) 41 provided on both inner sides of the box-shaped adapter 40 as shown by the arrow, and connect the connector 42 and the guide pin hole 43 to the connector 29 of the wireless main unit 20.
By connecting the guide pin 29a with the guide pin 29a, operation can be performed from the front surface of the adapter 40 using the display 22 and the operating knob 23. At this time, the holder 30 may be removed and used.

Effects of the Invention According to the present invention as shown in the above embodiments, among the components of the portable wireless device, an antenna, a battery, or the like, which is not required when mounted on a vehicle, is housed inside a holder so that it can be separated from the wireless main body. In addition to the above, the display unit, knobs and the like necessary for operation are arranged on the side surface of the wireless main body. For this reason, it becomes possible to use the operation parts provided in the conventional adapter in common, the wireless main body part and the adapter can be downsized, and the operation parts such as the display and knob can be enlarged to improve the operability. Have. Moreover, the holder for carrying is U-shaped, and its thickness is almost equal to the thickness of the wireless main body, so even if the holder is attached, the thickness is not bulky and the portability is not excluded. The fixing of the holder and the wireless main body is good and does not fall off easily.
