  A mobile phone (portable electronic device) that is an embodiment of the present invention will be described below.

  FIG. 1 shows a front view of a mobile phone 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the mobile phone 1 includes a housing 10, a display unit 20, a cover glass 30 (protective member) mainly covering the display unit 20, a key set 40, and an incidental case 50. Although not shown, the mobile phone 1 may include a battery, an incoming lamp, a proximity sensor, an in-camera, a power key, a volume key, a speaker, an antenna, an infrared port, an out-camera, and the like.

  The housing 10 is a housing that covers each component of the mobile phone 1, and stores at least the display unit 20, the cover glass 30, and the key set 40. Further, the housing 10 has a storage portion 11 for storing the key set 40 in a part thereof, and a region for storing the display portion 20 and the cover glass 30 is also provided separately.

  Although not shown, the housing 10 may contain, for example, a battery, an incoming lamp, a proximity sensor, an in camera, a power key, a volume key, a speaker, an antenna, an infrared port, an out camera, and the like. Further, the housing 10 may be composed of a plurality of housings, and one housing may be formed by engaging the plurality of housings with each other. The housing 10 may be formed of ABS, PC / ABS, magnesium alloy or the like.

  The storage unit 11 is configured as a part of the housing 10 on the back side of the key set 40 provided at a position adjacent to the cover glass 30. The storage portion 11 is provided so as to be recessed from the surface of the cover glass 30 in the thickness direction of the housing 10, and the key set 40 is stored thereon. Since the storage portion 11 is provided for storing the key set 40, the depth of the recess is substantially the same as the height of the key set 40, and the length in the longitudinal direction and the length in the short direction are the same. The width is substantially the same as the key set 40. Thereby, when the key set 40 is stored in the storage unit 11, the user's finger is caught on a part of the key set 40 without protruding except the key tops of the keys 41 to 43 in the key set 40. Inhibiting the operability of can be reduced.

  The display unit 20 is housed in the center of the housing 10 and is covered with a cover glass 30. The display unit 20 may be, for example, a touch screen display. The touch screen display refers to a display having a touch screen and a display.

  The touch screen detects contact of a finger or a stylus pen with the touch screen display. The touch screen can detect a position and / or gesture where a plurality of fingers, a stylus pen, or the like touches the touch screen display. The touch screen detection method may be any method such as a capacitance method, a resistive film method, a surface acoustic wave method (or an ultrasonic method), an infrared method, an electromagnetic induction method, and a load detection method.

  The display is composed of a display device such as a liquid crystal display, an organic EL panel, or an inorganic EL panel. The display can display images such as characters and graphics.

  The display unit 20 is connected to a CPU or the like (not shown) housed in the housing 10 and displays an image corresponding to the input instruction by receiving an input instruction from the CPU or the like.

  The cover glass 30 covers the display unit 20 and a part of the housing 10 located on the periphery of the display unit 20 from the upper end in the longitudinal direction of the housing 10 to the upper end of the key set 40 and is exposed to the outside. The cover glass 30 is fixed so as not to be detached from the housing 10 by an adhesive member such as a double-sided tape or an adhesive. The cover glass 30 may be close to or in contact with the display unit 20 on the surface opposite to the surface exposed to the outside. For example, when the display unit 20 is a touch screen display, the cover glass 30 is in contact with the cover glass 30. It may be detected that the user has operated.

  The key set 40 includes keys 41 to 43 and a key holding member 45 that holds the keys 41 to 43. The key set 40 is detachably housed in the housing portion 11 provided in the vicinity of the end portion in the longitudinal direction of the housing 10 and adjacent to the cover glass 30, and is inserted into the housing portion 11. As a result, it is stored in the storage unit 11. When the key set 40 is housed in the housing portion 11, the incidental case 50 is formed from the other side in the longitudinal direction by the housing 10 positioned on the lower side of the cover glass 30 and the cover glass 30 from one side in the longitudinal direction of the housing 10. Sandwiched between. The key set 40 receives pressure from both sides of one side and the other side of the key set 40 by being sandwiched from one side and the other side in the longitudinal direction. Accordingly, the key set 40 can be reduced from being detached from the storage unit 11 due to the occurrence of an impact or the like. In particular, since the cover glass 30 has high rigidity in the plane direction, the key set 40 in contact with the cover glass 30 can improve the reduction of detachment as compared with the case where the key set 40 is simply in contact with the housing 10. . The key set 40 (key holding member 45) may not be in contact with the cover glass 30 and part of the housing 10 covered with the cover glass 30 and the incidental case 50, but may be close to each other. .

  Further, since the key set 40 is installed in the vicinity of the end portion in the longitudinal direction of the housing 10, the key set 40 is positioned so as to be easily operated by the user without obstructing the arrangement of the display unit 20 and the cover glass 30. Since .about.43 are arranged, it is possible to provide the mobile phone 1 in which the screen is easy to see and the keys are easy to operate.

  The key set 40 may include members other than the keys 41 to 43 and the key holding member 45.

  As described above, the key set 40 including the keys 41 to 43 and the key holding member 45 that holds the keys 41 to 43 is a member different from the housing 10, thereby holding the key 41 in the housing 10 itself. This eliminates the need to provide a structure for reducing the structural restrictions of the housing 10 and facilitates the manufacture of the housing 10. Further, the key set 40 can be attached to the housing 10 by storing the key set 40 in the storage portion 11 of the housing 10, so that the process of attaching the key set 40 can be simplified. Even if an impact occurs on the housing 10, the impact on the housing 10 is not directly transmitted to the keys 41 to 43, but is transmitted to the key holding member 45 and indirectly to the keys 41 to 43. The shock transmitted to each of the keys 41 to 43 can be alleviated, and breakage of each key and detachment from the key holding member 45 can be reduced.

  Each key 41 to 43 is composed of a separate key. Within the key holding member 45, in the front view of FIG. 1, the key 41 is at the left end, the key 42 is at the center, and the key 43 is at the right end. Each is arranged. The key 42 is disposed close to the key 41 and the key 43. Each of the keys 41 to 43 is hooked by the hooks 41 c to 43 c of the keys 41 to 43 on the receiving parts 46 to 48 corresponding to the keys 41 to 43 in the key holding member 45. 43 is held in the key holding member 45. That is, even if an impact or the like occurs on the housing 10, the keys 41 to 43 can be prevented from being detached from the key holding member 45.

  The key 41 has a long polyhedral structure, and has a structure curved in a direction (upper left direction in FIG. 1) from the end adjacent to the key 42 toward the end on the opposite side toward the cover glass 30. . The key 43 has an elongated polyhedral structure, and is curved in a direction (upper right direction in FIG. 1) from the end adjacent to the key 42 toward the end on the opposite side toward the cover glass 30. Have The key 42 has a long polyhedral structure, and has a substantially linear structure in the longitudinal direction. Accordingly, the keys 41 to 43 can be inserted into the key holding member 45 having a structure curved from the center toward both ends of the housing 10 in the short direction. Each key 41 to 43 has a different shape, and the key holding member 45 that holds each key 41 to 43 also has a different structure for holding the key depending on each key. It is not set at a position, and it is difficult for mistakes to be made in key arrangement in the manufacturing process of the mobile phone 1. In addition, although the keys 41-43 were each comprised with the separate key, it is not restricted to this, You may be comprised as an integrated key couple | bonded together. In addition to the curved key holding structure 45, the keys 41 and 43 are also curved toward the respective end portions. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the key holding structure 45 is a linear structure. The keys 41 and 43 may also have a linear structure, and in this case, the keys 41 to 43 may all have the same shape.

  Further, by aligning the position of the end of each key 41 to 43 on the side not adjacent to the key 41 of both ends and the key 42 of 43 with the end of the cover glass 30 in the short direction, the user can It is possible to seamlessly shift to pressing of the keys 41 to 43 while maintaining the contact from the contact with the glass 30.

  The keys 41 to 43 are stored in the key holding member 45 by a biasing member (not shown) for biasing the keys 41 to 43 in the user viewing direction (for example, rubber, spring, etc.). The key tops 41 a to 43 a of 41 to 43 are exposed from the key holding member 45. The urging member is provided in the key holding member 45 or the storage portion 11.

  Further, since the keys 41 to 43 are held by the key holding member 45, each key is caused by vibration caused by the user pressing down the key tops 41a to 43a of the key 41 or vibration caused by dropping of the mobile phone 1. It is possible to reduce the separation of 41 to 43 from the key holding member 45.

  The key holding member 45 has a structure that allows the keys 41 to 43 to be inserted and holds the inserted keys 41 to 43. The key holding member 45 has a structure curved from the center toward both ends of the housing 10 in the short direction. The thickness of the key holding member 45 is substantially equal to the depth of the storage portion 11.

  The key holding member 45 has a length in the longitudinal direction substantially the same as the length in the short direction of the housing 10, and the storage area for storing the keys 41 to 43 is close to the end in the longitudinal direction. Provided. Accordingly, the keys 41 and 43 at both ends of the keys 41 to 43 can be arranged up to the vicinity of the end portion of the key holding member 45, and the volume of each key 41 to 43 and the key top of each key 41 to 43 are arranged. The area can be increased, and the user can easily press the keys.

  Further, since the thickness of the key holding member 45 is substantially equal to the depth of the storage portion 11, when the key holding member 45 is stored in the storage portion 11 of the housing 10, it is exposed to the outside of the key holding member 45. The surface to be covered is substantially flush with the surface of the cover glass 30, so that when the user moves his / her finger from the cover glass 30 to the key 41, there is almost no level difference due to the surface exposed to the outside of the key holding member 45. The keys 41 to 43 can be pressed seamlessly. The shape of the key holding member 45 is not limited to a curved shape, and may be, for example, a linear shape.

  The incidental case 50 is configured in a concave shape, and is attached so as to cover a part of the housing 10 by being brought into contact with the end portion of the housing 10 on the key set 40 side. As a first example of the mounting mode, a locking portion (not shown) in the housing 10 is attached by engaging a locking portion (not shown) provided inside the incidental case 50, or the housing 10 The locked portion (not shown) of the second case is fixed by being coupled to the locking portion (not shown) of the second case. Further, as a second example of the attachment mode, the housing 10 and the incidental case 50 are attached by being adhered by an adhesive such as a double-sided tape or a bond. The manner in which the incidental case 50 is attached to the housing 10 is not limited to this. In addition, the accessory case 50 is in contact with the side surface in the vicinity of the end of the key set 40 (key holding member 42) when attached to the housing 10. As a result, the key set 40 is sandwiched between the cover glass 30 and the housing 10 from the side surface of the cover glass 30 and the incidental case 50 from the end of the housing 10 and receives pressure. Even if an impact occurs, the detachment of the key set 40 from the housing 10 can be reduced.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a process in which the keys 41 to 43 that are constituent members of the key set 40 are inserted into the key holding member 45.

  The key set 40 includes keys 41 to 43 and a key holding member 45 that holds the inserted keys 41 to 43, and the key set 40 is stored in the storage portion 11 of the housing 10 as shown in FIG. In this state, the keys 41 to 43 are configured to be housed in the key holding member 45, but when the keys 41 to 43 are detached from the key holding member 45, the state is as shown in FIG.

  Each key 41-43 consists of each key top 41a-43a, hook part 41c-43c, and each projection part 41b-43b.

  Each key top 41a-43a is provided in the upper surface side of each key 41-43, and has an elongate polyhedron shape. In particular, the key tops 41a and 43a are curved in the rearward direction in FIG. 2 from the end adjacent to the key 42 toward the opposite end. In addition, the key tops 41 a and 43 a have a larger area of the inclined surface at the opposite end than the end adjacent to the key 42. Accordingly, when the user presses the keys 41a and 43a, the finger is less likely to be caught at the end portions, and the keys 41a and 43a are easily pressed.

  Each protrusion 41b-43b is comprised by the shape which protrudes in the direction opposite to each keytop 41a-43a side in each key 41-43. The protrusions 41 b to 43 b are arranged so that the keys 41 to 43 are held by the key holding member 45 and the key set 40 is stored in the storage unit 11 of the housing 10 by the user's finger or the like. This is a member for pushing down a metal dome switch (not shown) housed in the housing 10 in conjunction with the pressing of 43a. Further, when the metal dome switch or the like is pushed down by the protrusions 41b to 43b, an input signal is input to the CPU (not shown) accordingly, and it is detected that the key corresponding to the pushed down metal dome switch or the like is pushed down. .

  Each of the hooks 41c to 43c is provided on the back surface of each key top 41a to 43a in each of the keys 41 to 43, and protrudes on both sides from the key tops 41a to 43a in the lateral direction on the back surface. Convex shape. Each of the hanging portions 41 c to 43 c is made of a material having higher rigidity than the receiving portion 45 b of the key holding member 45. The hooks 41 c to 43 c are inserted into the holes 46 to 48 formed in the key holding member 45 when the keys 41 to 43 are inserted into the key holding member 45. Each of the hanging portions 41c to 43c is configured such that the length in the longitudinal direction of each key 41 to 43 is substantially equal to the length in the longitudinal direction of the key holding member 45 of each hole 46 to 48. Accordingly, when the keys 41 to 43 are inserted into the key holding member 45 and the hooks 41c to 43c are inserted into the holes 46 to 48, the hooks 41c to 43c are inserted into the holes 46 to 48, respectively. Since the movement in the longitudinal direction is restricted, the blurring in the longitudinal direction within the key holding member 45 of each of the keys 41 to 43 inserted into the key holding member 45 can be reduced.

  The key holding member 45 has an opening 45a, a receiving portion 45b, a claw portion 45c, and holes 46 to 48.

  The opening 45 a has a concave shape on the upper surface side in the thickness direction of the key holding member 45. The volume in the opening 45a of the key holding member 45 is configured to be substantially equal to the volume of each key 41-43. Thereby, the keys 41 to 43 can be stored in the key holding member 45. Therefore, when the keys 41 to 43 are inserted into the key holding member 45, the keys 41 to 43 are accommodated in the key set 40 without protruding, and the key tops 41a to 41a are moved when the key set 40 is moved alone. It can reduce that 43a becomes obstructive. When the key tops 41 a to 43 a are stored in the key holding member 45, they are stored in the key holding member 45. Therefore, when the key set 40 is stored in the storage unit 11, the key tops 41 a to 43 a are stored. As the key tops 41a to 43a are accommodated in the key holding member 45 as the key 43a is pressed, it is possible to obtain a feeling that the user has pressed the key firmly.

  The receiving portions 45b are provided on the upper surface side of the key holding member 45 and at both ends in the short direction of the opening 45a in the longitudinal direction. The interval between the two receiving portions 45b is configured to be larger than the length in the width direction of the key tops 41a to 43a and smaller than the length in the width direction of the hanging portions 41b to 43b. Moreover, the receiving part 45b is comprised with a member with low rigidity compared with the hanging parts 41c-43c, and it is comprised so that it may bend by the press by the hanging parts 41c-43c. As a result, when the key 41 (42, 43) is inserted into the key holding member 45 from the opening 45a, the receiving portion 45b comes into contact with the hook portion 41b (42b, 43b), and then further the key 41 If the key 41 (42, 43) is pressed in the direction in which the key 41 is inserted, it will bend. Thereafter, when the key 41 (42, 43) is inserted into the key holding member 45, the receiving portion 45b is restored from the bent state, and the key 42 is prevented from being detached from the key holding member 45. Can do.

  The claw portion 45c is provided on the bottom surface of the key holding member 45 and is configured to protrude toward the bottom surface side. The claw portion 45c is inserted into and engaged with a hole (not shown) provided in the storage portion 11 of the housing 10. Thereby, the key holding member 45 (key set 40) is fixed in the storage portion 11, and it is possible to reduce the key holding member 45 (key set 40) from being detached due to an impact on the housing 10 or the like.

  In the key holding member 45, six holes 46 to 48 are provided under one receiving portion 45 b, that is, two for each of the keys 41 to 43. Each of the holes 46 to 48 has a length substantially equal to the length in the longitudinal direction of each of the hooks 41c to 43c of each key 41 to 43, and is configured with a height sufficiently larger than the height of each of the hooks 41c to 43c. Has been. The distance between the two hole portions 46 (47, 48) is equal to the distance between the two hook portions 41c (42c, 43c) of the key. That is, the holes 46 to 48 are configured such that when the keys 41 to 43 are inserted into the key holding member 45, the hooks 41 c to 43 c are inserted and the key holding member 45 is not shaken in the longitudinal direction. Has been.

  Each key 41 to 43 is inserted into the key holding member 45 from the opening 45a by moving in the direction of the arrow shown in FIG. 2 with the projections 41b to 43b facing down. The insertion process will be described later with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA of FIG. That is, it is a vertical sectional view of the key 42 and the key holding member 45 in the process in which one key 42 of the keys 41 to 43 is inserted into the key holding member 45.

  The key 42 is configured by combining a key top 42a and a member on the hanging portion 42c side. Note that the key 42 is not limited to being configured by combining two members. For example, the key 42 includes one member, and the key top 42a, the protrusion 42b, and the hook 42c are provided on the member. Also good.

  The two receiving portions 45b are bent in a direction away from each other by being pressed by the contact of the hanging portion 42c in the process in which the hanging portion 45c of the key 42 is inserted into the opening 45a of the key holding member 45. Next, when the insertion of the key 42 including the hook 42c in the direction of the arrow advances and the hook 42c is released from the state of being in contact with the receiver 45b, the two receivers 45b are bent from the original state. While returning to the state, the hooking portion 42c enters one end side into the hole 47 and the other end side into the space below the receiving portion 45b on the other end side. As a result, the key 42 is accommodated in the key holding member 45. In this way, the key set 40 including the key 42 and the key holding member 45 is formed.

  Here, even if an impact or the like is generated on the key set 40 and a force is generated in a direction away from the key holding member 45 with respect to the key 42, the hooking portion 42 c of the key 42 holds the key holding member 45. It is possible to prevent the key 42 from being detached by being caught by the receiving portion 45 b and restricting the movement of the key 42 in the direction in which the key 42 is detached from the key holding member 45. Note that the two receiving portions 45b are not limited to being configured by a bending member, and members around the two receiving portions 45b may be configured by a bending member. The key 42 is inserted from the opening 45a and held in the key holding member 45 by bending the members around the two receiving portions 45b by receiving the pressure due to the contact of the hanging portion 42c.
