Definitions

  • This invention relates to communications devices including but not limited to portable communications devices using radio frequency signals for communications.
  • a hinge like the antenna and some user interface devices, may be comparatively large in order to provide the physical strength required to service and survive a portable communications device environment.
  • This relatively large hinge without more, is contrary to the essence of the requirements of a portable communications device, namely a small compact efficiently packaged unit.
  • a portable communications device including wireless radio circuitry for processing a radio frequency signal and a first and a second housings arranged and constructed for cooperatively containing the wireless radio circuitry, wherein the first and the second housing respectively include a first surface and a second surface disposed along an axis.
  • a hinge apparatus encompassing a volume disposed along the axis, that pivotally connects the first and the second surfaces such that ihe second surface pivots about the axis between a first position and a second position, wherein the first position allows substantially enhanced access to the first surface, and an antenna arrangement, disposed within the volume, for coupling the radio frequency signal to the wireless radio circuitry.
  • FIG. 1 of a portable communications device constructed in accordance with the present invention.
  • the drawing is representative of a portable communications device and includes wireless radio circuitry (11), that may, as depicted, be mounted on a substrate such as a printed circuit board, and is used for processing a radio frequency signal.
  • the radio circuitry (11) is contained within a first housing (13) and a second housing (15) that have been arranged and constructed for cooperatively containing the wireless radio circuitry (11).
  • the first housing (13) includes a first surface (17) and the second housing (15) includes a second surface(19).
  • the first surface (17) includes at least one edge (21) and the second surface includes at least one edge (23), such that the edges (21, 23) are disposed along, substantially parallel with, an axis (25).
  • the surfaces (17, 19) may be used for mounting user interface devices such as a keypad (27) or display (29).
  • a hinge arrangement (30) is utilized to pivotally connect the second housing (15) to the first housing (13) about the axis (25).
  • the hinge arrangement (30) is disposed along the axis (25) and encompasses a volume (31). Pivoting the second housing (15) about the axis (25) from a first position (33), as depicted, to a second position (35), for example through a 180° rotation, will substantially limit user access to the first and the second surfaces(17, 19).
  • returning the second housing (15) to the first position (33) will expose the first surface (17) and the second surface (19) and allow substantially enhanced access to the first surface (17) as well as the second surface (19).
  • This access will allow the user to operate the portable communication device, whereas the lack of access may correspond to protecting the user interface devices from inadvertent activation or damage and/or a desired reduction in physical dimensions.
  • An antenna arrangement (37) is disposed within the volume (31).
  • the antenna arrangement (37) couples the radio frequency signal(s) to the wireless radio circuitry by for example, inductively coupling the radio frequency signal via inductor (39).
  • the antenna arrangement (37) may be of the telescoping variety such that it may be extended for greater efficiency as required.
  • the instant invention may thus be advantageously utilized to reduce the physical size of portable communications devices.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de communication portatif comportant un premier et un second boîtier (13, 15) reliés de manière pivotante par une charnière (30) et conçus pour contenir des circuits radio sans fils fonctionnant de concert. La charnière (30) contient un agencement d'antenne incorporée pour coupler des signaux radioélectriques aux circuits radio sans fil, les dimensions du dispositif de communication portatif pouvant être ainsi réduites.
