Mobile Phone Patent Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an antenna built-in type mobile
phone.
2. Description of the Background Art
FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a general mobile phone in accordance
with a conventional art.
As shown in the drawing, the conventional mobile phone includes
a Helical antenna 1 fixedly installed at the upper end portion of
a main body 3 and a monopol antenna 2 installed in a certain space
of the mobile phone through the Helical antenna 1. For a telecommunication,
the monopol antenna is pulled out, which has a length of .lambda./4.
When the user tries a telecommunication, current flows to the antenna,
and electromagnetic wave is radiated toward a base station. In this
respect, in case of using only the Helical antenna 1, without pulling
out the monopol antenna 2, the resonant frequency of the antenna
is adjusted with a called party. Meanwhile, in case of pulling out
the monopol antenna 2 to increase the gain of the antenna, the resonant
frequency is adjusted with a calling party.
Generally, downsizing of a mobile phone has a close relation with
the size and the weight of the antenna. In line with the development
of telecommunication techniques and increasing users' desire, mobile
phones become compact and light rapidly, and in this respect, the
antenna is paid much attention increasingly.
However. In order to build the monopol antenna in the main body
of the mobile phone, a space is required in the mobile phone, which
is disadvantageous in promotion of a compact and lightweight mobile
phone.
In addition, since the antenna is fabricated through a number of
processes, degrading the productivity.
Also, since the Helical antenna is installed to be outwardly protruded,
it is inconvenient in that when users pull out the mobile phone,
the antenna may be caught on a pocket of clothes or in a bag. In
order to overcome the defects, in case of shortening the antenna,
the frequency gain is reduced, degrading the performance of the
mobile phone.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide an
antenna built-in type mobile phone which is directed to accomplish
a compact size and light weight.
Another object of the present invention is to provide an antenna
built-in type mobile phone which is capable of enhance a productivity
by virtue of a simple fabrication process.
To achieve these and other advantages and in accordance with the
purpose of the present invention, as embodied and broadly described
herein, there is provided an antenna built-in type mobile phone
including a mobile phone main body; and a battery detachably installed
in the mobile phone main body having an antenna at a predetermined
position therein.
In the antenna built-in type mobile phone of the present invention,
the battery includes a battery cell in a predetermined form, an
antenna provided at the upper and the side portions of the battery
cell, and a battery pack for holding the battery cell and the antenna.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments
of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the
accompanying drawings.
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of an antenna built-in type mobile
phone in accordance with the present invention, FIG. 3 is a perspective
view of an antenna provided at a certain position of the upper portion
of the battery of FIG. 2 in accordance with the present invention,
and FIG. 4 is a perspective view of an antenna provided at a certain
position of the side portion of the battery of FIG. 2 in accordance
with the present invention.
As shown in FIG. 2, the antenna built-in type mobile phone of the
present invention is inserted in a battery 102 detachably attached
to the mobile phone, rather than being provided in a main body 100
like in the conventional art.
In detail, with reference to FIG. 3, the antenna 10 is positioned
in a predetermined area of the upper portion of the battery cell
12. A dielectric substance 14 is inserted between the antenna 10
and the battery cell 12, or there remains a space between the antenna
10 and the battery cell 12, in which air serves as a dielectric.
The antenna 10 and the battery cell 12 are inserted within a battery
pack (not shown).
As shown in FIG. 4, the antenna may be positioned at the side portion
of the battery cell 12. In this case, the antenna is positioned
at the outer side of the battery cell 12 in consideration of a frequency
characteristic.
The reason for this is that if the antenna is installed at the
inner side of the battery cell 12, when the battery 102 and the
main body 100 are combined, the antenna 10 becomes closely adhered
to the main body 100, deteriorating a frequency characteristic.
FIGS. 5A and 5B illustrate forms of antenna in accordance with
the present invention.
As shown in the drawing, the antenna 10 is implemented with a linear
or a zigzag-shaped wire. And, the antenna 10 may be formed in a
circular or an oval form as required. One terminal of the antenna
10 is electrically connected with a radio frequency (RF) processing
unit of the mobile phone main body 100, while the other terminal
thereof is grounded. At this time, the thickness of the wire of
the antenna can be adjusted as required, for which a single or a
plurality of wires may be used as required.
As so far described, according to the antenna built-in type mobile
phone of the present invention, since the antenna is built in the
battery which is detachably attached to the mobile phone, so that
the mobile phone can be more compact and lightweight.
In addition, by building the antenna in the battery, the mobile
phone can be more convenient to use. And, its productivity can be
more improved by removing the complicate processes to provide the
antenna in the main body of the mobile phone.
As the present invention may be embodied in several forms without
departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof,
it should also be understood that the above-described embodiments
are not limited by any of the details of the foregoing description,
unless otherwise specified, but rather should be construed broadly
within its spirit and scope as defined in the appended claims, and
therefore all changes and modifications that fall within the meets
and bounds of the claims, or equivalence of such meets and bounds
are therefore intended to be embraced by the appended claims.
