Abstract

A belt has built into it a rechargeable power source consisting of a series of interconnected rechargeable cells 1, which may be used as a power source for portable electrical equipment e.g. mobile/cellular telephones, radio pagers, and portable computers. The belt may also have an adapter housing 2, for use with a suitable connector 3, through which the power source may be charged, or direct connection with a mobile telephone (fig 2).

Description

PORTABLE RECHARGEABLE POWER SOURCE This invention relates to a portable rechargeable power source integrated inside a belt.
The use of portable equipment is very much on the increase. Most require a power source that offers adequate "on-time" to make it viable to cany the equipment. The power source is often the major portion of the physical dimensions of the equipment.
The portable rechargeable power source integrated inside a belt offers a source of power for a variety of portable equipment, including, but not exclusive to:- Mobile/Cellular Phones; Radio Pagers; Portable (laptop/palmtop/personal digital assistant) computers. By implementing a proportion of the required power inside a belt the portable equipment can be made smaller and less obtrusive, particularly for equipment that is normally carried on ones personage (such as mobile/cellular phones and radio pagers).
The power source would be rechargeable via a mains adapter or via a car battery adapter.
A specific embodiment of the invention will now be described by way of an example with reference to the accompanying drawing in which: Figure 1 shows the simplest implementation Figure 2 shows an implementation specific to mobile/cellular phones In its simplest fonn the portable rechargeable power source would consist of a series of intercomlected rechargeable cells 1 integrated inside a belt, Figure 1. The belt would simply allow via the means of a cable and suitable connector 3 connection between the power source adapter housing 2 and equipment such as a mobile/cellular phone or laptop/palmtop computer. A similar connection 3 would allow the power source to be charged via a mains adapter or via a car battery adapter.
The portable rechargeable power source integrated inside a belt could, however, be modified to allow direct connection to the equipment, Figure 2, where the equipment is often carried on ones personage in normal use; e.g. a mobile phone.
The mobile phone would in normal use sit in the adapter housing 2 and use the power source inside the belt. The power source would maintain a certain level of power charged in the equipment (by means of a built-in rechargeable battery) and also keep the equipment in the "on" state, this would then allow a certain level of"talk" time when the phone is removed from the adapter housing. For longer periods of the phone not being in the adapter housing, either a conventional battery could be used or a mains or car adapter.
The primary objective of the portable rechargeable power source integrated inside a belt in this particular example would be to enable the use of the mobile phone in the least obtrusive manor, while maintaining extensive "on" time with least visible notice of the phone itself, given that mobile phones are often clipped onto a belt. The adapter housing 2 could be further modified to allow the mobile phone to rotate through, say 90 degrees such that it would cause least obstruction in different positions i.e.
person standing upright or sitting down.
The mobile phone would not in any way be restricted to use on the belt, but could be used in the conventional manner, i.e. a with a stand alone rechargeable battery or mains adapter or car battery adapter (allowing for accessories such as hands-free use).
