Mobile Phone Patent Abstract
A mobile phone recharger having a battery seat on the top surface,
a light source pivotally connected to the front, and a clipping
means on the back surface, is able to detect the power status of
the battery and with the help of the illumination of the light source,
the remaining power in the battery is consumed. The clipping structure
enables the recharger to be hung by a hook (or the same) on the
wall, therefore, the recharger is used as an emergency flash light.

Mobile Phone Patent Description
FIELD OF THE PRESENT INVENTION
The invention relates generally to a mobile phone recharger and
in particular to a mobile phone recharger that incorporates a flash
light to serve as a night source in a dark environment and to consume
residual power of the rechargeable battery for performing a better
charging theory.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Nowadays, the battery of a mobile phone, because of the advanced
technology, is available to provide the mobile phone to be in the
mode of "standby" for almost 24 hours, and it also can
continuously provide the power for the mobile phone in use for 3
to 4 hours. Therefore, we understand that a good battery is the
most important factor affecting the efficiency of a mobile phone.
Yet, when speaking about the battery used for a mobile phone, we
must also understand that the power of the battery will gradually
die out when the times of usage of a mobile phone increases. Based
on the reason, having a good recharger for the battery to recharge
the power is also very important for the people who use mobile phone
a lot. But the proper way to charge a battery is first to make sure
that there is not any power left in the battery, and then put the
battery on the charger to proceed the charging procedure. When the
power of the battery of a mobile phone is down, people usually put
the battery in the recharger to recharge the power without checking
if there is any power left in the battery. This usually will affect
the life span of the battery seriously. As to the recharger having
a discharge circuit designed therein, is somewhat too big in size
to be carried along and sometimes, occupy a large space.
In a dark night, what if your car suddenly broke down, and there
is not any light source at hand, or the light source is mounted
on something and is not easy to move around as you try to locate
the spot which is out of order?
To solve such an inconvenient problems, it would be advisable to
provide a multi-function mobile phone recharger having a space on
the top of the recharger for storing the battery therein, an adjustable
light source at one end of the recharger, and a clipping means mounted
on the back of the recharger with an adjustable supporting frame
attached thereto.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is therefor an object of the present invention to provide a
mobile phone recharger having a light source at one end, which can
judge the efficiency of the battery by the brightness of the light,
and provide a discharge to the power of the battery, if there is
any.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a mobile
phone recharger which can be used as a flash light when in emergency.
After the battery is put into the proper space, the recharger incorporating
with the clipping means on its back is easy to hang on things and
ready to be used, or with the help of the adjustable supporting
frame, the recharger having an adjustable light source at one end
is very easy to be fixed at any places where the users wanted.
Still another object of the present invention is to provide a mobile
phone recharger whose battery space can be used as a spare-battery
storing place, which can not only minimizes the space required for
the second battery, but also can be transferred into a "portable
flash light" or "battery storing place".
Another object of the present invention is to provide a mobile
phone recharger having on its back an adjusting supporting frame.
With the help of the adjusting supporting frame, the mobile phone
recharger stands on a level surface as shown in FIG. 4, which can
be used as an ordinary light source on the desk.
Still another object of the present invention is to provide a mobile
phone recharger with the characteristics of low price, easy to operate
and functions other than recharge.
The present invention as will be disclosed by the accompanying
drawings and description is not to limit the scope or spirit of
the invention. They are merely described as preferred embodiments
of the present invention.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Reference is now made to the accompanying drawings, in which it
is shown an illustrative embodiment of the present invention from
which its novel features and advantages will be apparent, wherein:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a mobile phone recharger constructed
in accordance with the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a side view of the present invention;
FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of the clipping means;
FIG. 4 is one embodiment of the present invention as a light source
on a level surface;
FIG. 5 is another embodiment of the present invention.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
With reference to the drawings, and in particular to FIG. 1, wherein
a perspective view of a mobile phone recharger 1 constructed in
accordance with the present invention is shown, the mobile phone
recharger 1 has, formed on a top side thereof, a battery seat 11
constructed in accordance with the type of the battery used, whose
preferred which shape as shown in FIG. 1 is constructed based on
ERICSSON 237/337 battery. It is, however, understood that the battery
seat 11 can be modified to suit other types of rechargeable batteries.
To firmly secure the battery within the seat 11, a blocking plate
111, a concave portion 112 and a recess 113 are formed at the rear
end and the center of the seat 11 respectively. On one side of the
rear part of the recharger 1, a socket (not shown) is formed for
connecting with an external power source.
As shown is FIG. 2, wherein an adjustable light source 12, such
as a flash light, is pivotally connected at the front end of the
mobile phone recharger 1, and clipping means 2, a supporting frame
3 and a switch 13 are formed at the back and the side of the recharger
1 respectively. The power required by the light source 12 is provided
by the battery in the seat 11 via connectors (not shown), and by
observing the brightness of the light, it is obvious to know the
power status of the batter. If it is found that there is some power
left in the battery after the mobile phone has been used for several
times, right before recharging the battery, it will be very convenient
and easy to turn on the switch 13 on the side of the recharger 1,
and the power left in the battery will be consumed through the illumination
of the light source 12. Thus the life span of the battery can be
extended as long as it designed.
Referring again to FIGS. 2, and 3, clipping means 2 is formed on
the back of the recharger 1, and an adjustable supporting frame
3 is pivotally connected to the sides of the clipping means 2. A
frame 22 is formed at the back of the clipping member 21 of the
clipping means 2 for receiving a plate 23 whose shape is in correspondence
with that of the frame 22. An arc-recess 24 is formed within a concave
located at one end of the frame 22, and at an axial direction of
the arc-recess 24, an axial groove 25 is formed for connecting with
the supporting frame 3. A securing groove 241 for securing the position
of the supporting frame 3 is formed on the periphery of the arc.
The supporting frame 3 is a quadrilaterals with two ends (as shown
in FIG. 3) which are a pivotal end 31 and a securing end 32 with
resilience. When assembling, after the securing end 32 and the pivotal
end 31 of the supporting frame 3 are inserted into the securing
groove 241 and the axial groove 25 respectively, the supporting
frame 3 is securely fixed. Referring to FIGS. 4 and 5, which are
preferred embodiments of the present invention. With the characteristic
property of the adjustable supporting frame 3, the mobile phone
recharger 1 of the invention is standing on a level surface. The
adjustable supporting frame 3 of the mobile phone recharger 1 is
adjusted to almost parallel to the back surface of the recharger
1, therefore, the recharger 1 can be hung on a hook 5 on the wall
to be used as an emergency flash light.
Although preferred embodiments have been described to illustrate
the present invention, it is apparent that changes and modifications
in the specifically described embodiments can be carried out without
departing from the scope of the invention which is intended to be
limited only by the appended claims. |
