BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a portable radio terminal, and more particularly, to an apparatus for reducing electromagnetic wave absorption of a portable radio terminal for reducing a strong current density harmful to a human body emitted through a contact portion of a main body and a sub body in an antenna device.

Recently, due to the rapid dissemination of portable wireless terminals and the development of various electronic industries, devices for shielding electromagnetic waves or reducing electromagnetic wave absorption rate, which are harmful to the human body, have gradually emerged. In particular, the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is used in human body protection standards as a measure of the amount of electromagnetic waves absorbed by the human body (head).

In general, the portable terminal is used in close contact with the human body (head), the electromagnetic wave absorption rate is affected by the near field (near field) of radio waves emitted from the antenna device of the terminal. Therefore, it will be said that there is a close relationship with the transmission power, the antenna characteristics, and the shape of the apparatus of the radio terminal to be used.

As a method of reducing the electromagnetic wave absorption rate as described above, a method of using a directional antenna device or attaching a separate conductor plate to shield the radio wave or inserting a radio wave absorber (conductive paint) was used.

However, the method of using a directional antenna device is very complicated in its configuration, which causes a problem that is gradually reversed to the miniaturized and thinner terminal market. Depending on the effect is different, the manufacturing process is also a problem that becomes complicated. In addition, when connecting the ground and the hinge portion of the main body, when the conductive film is used, there is a problem that the resistance value between the shaft pile and the ground is not constant or contact failure occurs.

In order to solve the problems as described above, an object of the present invention is to form a hinge module of a metallic material in order to reduce the strong current density radiated from the antenna device and to configure the conductive film through mechanical connection to the power supply means It is an object of the present invention to provide a device for reducing electromagnetic wave absorption of a portable radio terminal, which is configured to solve problems such as poor contact when used.

Another object of the present invention is to provide an electromagnetic wave absorption reduction apparatus of a portable radio terminal, which is configured to reduce the strong current density induced from the antenna device on the surface of the terminal.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for reducing electromagnetic wave absorption of a portable radio terminal, which is configured to maintain a ground state at all times with only a simple structure.

In order to solve the above object of the present invention, the present invention is a portable wireless terminal comprising a main body having a printed circuit board, and a sub body installed to be opened and closed by a predetermined hinge module on the main body. The hinge module may be formed of a conductive material, and the ground terminal on the printed circuit board may be drawn to the periphery of the hinge module to ground.

In addition, although the folder type terminal is illustrated and described in describing the present invention, the technical idea of the present invention is applicable to other terminals, for example, a folder type, a flip-up type, a general PDA, a notebook PC, and the like.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the case where it is determined that the gist of the present invention may be unnecessarily obscured, the detailed description thereof will be omitted.

1 is a perspective view showing a configuration of a general portable wireless terminal 100, which can be opened and closed by a hinge operation of a predetermined hinge module in the main body 110 and the main body 110 composed of upper and lower casing frames. And a plurality of key buttons installed in a main body for inputting data into the LCD module 130 and an LCD module (display device) 130 installed on the sub body. One keypad unit 140 and the antenna device 150 is installed in the main body.

At this time, the periphery of the antenna device 150, that is, the parts where the main body 110 and the sub body 120 meet (the parts A and B of FIG. 1) may be the highest current density emitted from the antenna device 150. It's a lot of acceptance. In particular, part A of FIG. 1 that is closest to the antenna device 150 is the place where the influence of electromagnetic waves on the human body is most affected by the high current density.

Therefore, the electromagnetic wave absorptivity reduction apparatus according to the present invention should be installed in part A of FIG. 1, and preferably may be installed together in part A and B of FIG.
