Mobilfunkgerät mit einem den SAR-Wert reduzierenden KorrekturelementMobile radio device with a correction element that reduces the SAR value
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Mobilfunkgerät, insbesondere Mobilfunktelefon, mit einem Gehäuse und einer in der Oberseite des Gehäuses vorgesehenen Tastatur, die sich im Wesentlichen im Bereich der Gerätemitte erstreckt.The present invention relates to a mobile radio device, in particular a mobile radio telephone, with a housing and a keyboard provided in the top of the housing, which extends essentially in the area of the center of the device.
Bei Mobilfunkgeräten ist es wünschenswert, die Belastungsdosis an elektromagnetischer Strahlung für den jeweiligen Benutzer möglichst klein zu halten, um potentielle Gesundheitsrisiken möglichst zu vermeiden.With mobile radio devices, it is desirable to keep the exposure dose to electromagnetic radiation as small as possible for the respective user in order to avoid potential health risks as far as possible.
Als ein spezifisches Meßkriterium dafür, welchen Strahlungsbelastungen der jeweilige Benutzer tatsächlich ausgesetzt ist, wird der sogenannte SAR-Wert (Specific Absorption Rate) verwendet. Dieser Wert gibt die spezifische Absorbtionsrate in Watt pro Kilogramm an, mit der ein vorgegebener Gewebevolumenbereich, z. B. im Kopf des jeweiligen Benutzers des Mobilfunkgeräts, thermisch belastet wird.The so-called SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) is used as a specific measurement criterion for which radiation exposure the respective user is actually exposed to. This value indicates the specific absorption rate in watts per kilogram, with which a given tissue volume range, e.g. B. is thermally stressed in the head of the respective user of the mobile device.
Um nun einen Benutzer beim Gebrauch des Mobilfunkgerätes vor potentiellen Gesundheitsgefährdungen durch die von Mobilfunkgerät abgegebene elektromagnetische Strahlungsenergie weitgehend zu schützen, sind in der Praxis eine Vielzahl von Vorsichtsmaßnahmen getroffen.In order to largely protect a user when using the mobile radio device against potential health hazards from the electromagnetic radiation energy emitted by the mobile radio device, a large number of precautionary measures have been taken in practice.
Eine Art für eine Schutzmaßnahme ist z. B. aus der EP 0 603 081 AI bekannt, bei der eine elektromagnatisch absorbierende Abschirmplatte zwischen der am stärksten strahlenden Zone des Mobilfunktelefons und dem Kopf des jeweiligen Benutzers als eine Art Strahlungsblockierende Zwischenwand im Gehäuse des Mobilfunktelefons untergebracht ist. Eine derartige Schutzmaßnahme erfordert allerdings ein zusätzliches Element bzw. mehrere zusätzliche Elemente, wodurch die Herstellung des Mobilfunkgerätes komplizierter und teurer wird.One type of protective measure is e.g. B. is known from EP 0 603 081 AI, in which an electro-magnetically absorbing shielding plate is housed between the most radiating zone of the mobile radio telephone and the head of the respective user as a kind of radiation-blocking partition in the housing of the mobile radio telephone. However, such a protective measure requires an additional element or several additional elements, which makes the manufacture of the mobile radio device more complicated and expensive.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, ein Mobilfunkgerät der eingangs genannten Art anzugeben, bei welchen ohne zusätzliche Bauelemente ein ausreichender Schutz gegen elektro-. magnetische Strahlung für den jeweiligen Benutzer gegeben ist.The object of the present invention is to provide a mobile radio device of the type mentioned at the beginning, in which there is adequate protection against electrical without additional components. magnetic radiation is given to the respective user.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß für das eingangs angegebene Mobilfunkgerät dadurch gelöst, dass die Tastatur unter anderem eine Tastaturmatte aufweist, welche aus einem elekt- risch leitfähigen und/oder magnetisch und/oder dielektrisch wirksamen Material besteht.This object is achieved according to the invention for the mobile radio device specified at the outset in that the keyboard has, inter alia, a keyboard mat which consists of an electrically conductive and / or magnetically and / or dielectrically active material.
Diese Art der Schutzmaßnahme ist deshalb zur Herabsetzung der Belastungsdosis an elektromagnetischer Strahlung sehr wirk- sam, da der Ort der stärksten Abstrahlung des elektromagnetischen Feldes und somit die Ursache für einen hohen SAR-Wert bei der aktuellen Länge der Mobilfunkgeräte, welche wahrscheinlich in Zukunft auch beibehalten wird, im Bereich der Gerätemitte auf der Geräteplatine liegt, welche als Gegenpol zur eigentlichen Antenne wirkt.This type of protective measure is therefore very effective for reducing the exposure dose to electromagnetic radiation, since the location of the strongest radiation of the electromagnetic field and thus the cause of a high SAR value in the current length of the mobile radio devices, which are likely to remain in the future is located in the area of the center of the device on the device board, which acts as the opposite pole to the actual antenna.
Durch den Einsatz von elektrisch leitfähigen und/oder magnetischen und/oder dielektrisch wirksamen Materialien für die in der Mitte liegende Tastaturmatte kann einerseits die in das menschliche Gewebe eingestrahlte Energie vermindert werden und andererseits kann durch Reflektion die Performance der Antenne verbessert bzw. konstant gehalten werden. Bei der Wahl eines entsprechenden Materials zur Herstellung der Tastaturmatte gelingt es problemlos den SAR-Wert zu senken.By using electrically conductive and / or magnetic and / or dielectric materials for the keyboard mat lying in the middle, the energy radiated into the human tissue can be reduced on the one hand and the performance of the antenna can be improved or kept constant by reflection. When choosing an appropriate material for the production of the keyboard mat, the SAR value can be easily reduced.
Weitere zweckmäßige Ausgestaltungen der vorliegenden Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen sowie aus der nach- folgenden Beschreibung eines Ausführungsbeispiels eines Mobilfunktelefons gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung anhand der Figur.Further expedient refinements of the present invention result from the subclaims and from the following description of an embodiment of a mobile radio telephone according to the present invention with reference to the figure.
Die Figur zeigt in einer perspektifischen Explosionsdarstellung ein Mobilfunkgerät, bei dem die Erfindung Anwendung findet.The figure shows a perspective exploded view of a mobile radio device in which the invention is used.
In der Figur sind alle wesentlichen Teile des Mobilfunktele- fons dargestellt, wobei bei der nachfolgenden Beschreibung aber lediglich auf die wichtigsten Teile eingegangen werden soll .All essential parts of the mobile radio telephone are shown in the figure, but only the most important parts will be discussed in the following description.
Das Mobiltelefon besteht im wesentlichen aus der Oberschale 1 und der Unterschale 2, wobei sich in der Unterschale 2 ein Akkufach für den Akku 3 befindet und wobei das Akkufach mittels des Deckels 4 abgeschlossen wird. In der Oberschale befindet sich unter anderem das Display mit der Displayabdeckung 5 und die Tastatur 6. Ein Bestandteil der Tastatur 6 ist die Tastaturmatte 7.The mobile phone consists essentially of the upper shell 1 and the lower shell 2, wherein there is a battery compartment for the battery 3 in the lower shell 2 and the battery compartment is closed by means of the cover 4. In the upper shell there is, among other things, the display with the display cover 5 and the keyboard 6. A component of the keyboard 6 is the keyboard mat 7.
Diese Tastaturmatte 7 erstreckt sich zumindest teilweise im Bereich der Gerätemitte und dient zusätzlich zur Senkung der Belastungsdosis an elektromagnetischer Strahlung für den je- weiligen Benutzer, dessen Kopf sich beim Gebrauch des Mobilfunktelefons auf der Tastatur- und Display-Seite des Mobilfunktelefons befindet.This keyboard mat 7 extends at least partially in the area of the center of the device and additionally serves to reduce the exposure dose to electromagnetic radiation for the respective user whose head is on the keyboard and display side of the mobile radio telephone when using the mobile radio telephone.
Die Stelle mit der größten elektromagnetischen Abstrahlung befindet sich auf der Platine unterhalb der Tastaturmatte 7, so daß sich zwischen dem Kopf des Benutzers und der Stelle mit der größten elektromagnetischen Abstrahlung des Mobilfunktelefons die Tastaturmatte 7 befindet.The location with the greatest electromagnetic radiation is located on the board below the keyboard mat 7, so that the keyboard mat 7 is located between the head of the user and the location with the greatest electromagnetic radiation from the mobile radio telephone.
Diese Tastaturmatte ist nun erfindungsgemäß entweder aus einem elektrisch leitfähigen Material und/oder einem magnetisch wirksamen und/oder einem dielektrisch wirksamen Material her- gestellt. Durch den Einsatz dieser Materialien wird die abgestrahlte Energie d. h. die in das Gewebe des Kopfs des Benutzers eingestrahlte Energie erheblich vermindert.According to the invention, this keyboard mat is now either made of an electrically conductive material and / or a magnetically active and / or a dielectric material. posed. By using these materials, the radiated energy, ie the energy radiated into the tissue of the user's head, is considerably reduced.
Dabei ist es zweckmäßig, dass die magnetischen Materialien eine relative Permeabilität μr aufweisen, welche größer 1 ist und die dielektrisch wirksamen Materialien eine relative Dielektrizitätskonstante εr aufweisen, welche größer als 1 ist. It is expedient for the magnetic materials to have a relative permeability μ r which is greater than 1 and for the dielectrically active materials to have a relative dielectric constant ε r which is greater than 1.
