This application claims the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2011-0010278, filed on Feb. 1, 2011 in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a communication terminal having a bone conduction function, and more particularly, to a communication terminal having a bone conduction function that can form an entire front surface of the terminal into a screen window by removing a receiver hole (speaker) provided at the front surface of a conventional communication terminal (e.g., a smart phone, a Galaxy Tab, a Galaxy Phone, a mobile phone, a personal digital, assistant (PDA), a moving picture experts group layer-3 (MP3), an iPhone, an iPad, and a wireless set) and that can receive sound at the entire front surface of the terminal by attaching a vibrator to a liquid crystal screen or a front panel of the terminal and that can receive sound of high sensitivity with a bone conduction function when close contacting with the terminal with an ear or a peripheral portion of an ear of a face and that can transmit only a communicating person's voice regardless of peripheral noise, thereby providing a good image to a consumer by greatly improving a quality and reliability of a product.

BACKGROUND ART

As shown in FIG. 1, in a conventional mobile communication terminal 1, at a position of an upper portion of the mobile communication terminal 1 contacting with a user's ear, a speaker unit 10 is formed, and at a position of a lower portion of the mobile communication terminal 1 adjacent to the user's mouth, a microphone 40 is formed, and at a front surface thereof, a liquid crystal display (LCD) 20 as a display unit that outputs a driving state of the mobile communication terminal 1 and a keypad 30 for inputting the user's control command are generally disposed.

In the above-described configuration, the speaker unit 10 is shown in FIG. 2, and the speaker unit 10 includes a speaker 11, an external frame 12 for supporting and protecting the speaker, and a decoration portion 13 formed in a shape such as a convex circular arc shape using a material such as a steel material having luster in a central portion of the external frame for decoration. A controller 2 of the mobile communication terminal 1 formed with a micro controller unit (MCU) or a mobile station modem (MSM) outputs an audio signal received by an RF signal through a vcoder and a digital analog converter (DAC) or an audio signal by reproduction of a multimedia file, and the speaker 11 is vibrated by receiving an input of an audio signal in which the controller 2 outputs and operates to output a sound signal.

However, as described above, in the conventional mobile communication terminal 1, because a user can adjust a magnitude of a output sound volume of the speaker, but even when the output sound volume of the speaker is set to be small, another party may still hear output sound of the speaker and thus there is a problem that the user's private life is not protected.

Further, the conventional mobile communication terminal has a problem that the user cannot appropriately recognize another party's voice or audio sound of reproduced multimedia due to interference by noise at a location having serious noise.

As conventional art for solving the above problem, Korean Patent No. 0687265 (Korean Patent Application No. 2005-0050222) (title: A mobile communication terminal having a bone conduction speaker and the operating method thereof) is disclosed.

That is, as shown in FIGS. 3, 4, and 5, in the conventional art, at a position of an upper portion of a mobile communication terminal 100 contacting with the user's ear, an audio speaker unit 110 is formed, and at a position of a lower portion of the mobile communication terminal 100 adjacent to the user's mouth, a microphone 140 is formed, and at a front surface thereof, an LCD 120 as a display unit for outputting a driving state of the mobile communication terminal 100 and a keypad 130 for inputting a user control command are disposed, and at an adjacent position of the audio speaker unit 110, a bone conduction speaker unit 150 is provided.

The mobile communication terminal 100 includes a controller 101 including an MSM or an MCU for outputting a switching unit control signal that controls voice and data communication by the mobile communication terminal and that outputs an audio signal and that selectively drives the audio speaker unit 110 and the bone conduction speaker unit 150. In an audio signal output terminal of the controller 101, a switching unit 160 for outputting an audio signal by selecting the audio speaker unit 110 and the bone conduction speaker unit 150 is provided, and the controller 101 and the switching unit 160 have a structure that connects an audio signal line 102 for outputting an audio signal and a switching unit control signal line 103 for outputting a switching signal to the switching unit 160. The switching unit 160 includes an audio speaker terminal 161 and a bone conduction speaker terminal 162 and is switched according to a switching signal of the controller 101 to selectively output an audio signal to the audio speaker unit 110 or the bone conduction speaker unit 150. A speaker 111 of the audio speaker unit 110 is connected to the audio speaker terminal 161 of the switching unit 160, and the bone conduction speaker unit 150 is connected to the bone conduction speaker terminal 162 of the switching unit 160. Here, the above-described bone conduction speaker unit 150 transfers a vibration of a bone of a side surface of the user's face to a cochlea of a screw shape positioned at the inside of an eardrum instead of directly inserting into the user's ear and thus the user can recognize sound.

Next, the audio speaker unit 110 includes a speaker 111 and an external frame 112 having a hollow portion and mounted at a front surface of the speaker unit 110 to protect the speaker 111, and in the hollow portion of the external frame 112, a pressing button 113 is supported by a spring 114, and in a lower end portion of the pressing button 113, when the pressing button 113 is pressed, a ground switch 115 that outputs a ground signal to the controller 101 is provided. One end of the ground switch 115 is grounded, and the other end thereof has a structure connected to the controller 101 to be parallel to a reference voltage source VCC. The above-described spring 114 may be replaced with an elastic member of various forms and materials that can provide an elastic force to the pressing button 113.

In the mobile communication terminal 100 having the above-described bone conduction speaker, a method of driving a mobile communication terminal by a selective operation of the audio speaker unit 110 and the bone conduction speaker unit 150 will be described as follows.

First, in a general state, the switching unit 160 of the mobile communication terminal 100 maintains a state in which an audio signal is input to the audio speaker unit 110 (S10). Thereafter, the controller 101 determines whether the pressing button 113 is pressed (S20). By enabling the user to contact the audio speaker unit 110 with a periphery of an ear or a jaw, if the pressing button 113 is pressed, the ground switch 115 is switched to be grounded and thus a low signal is output to the controller 101. When the controller 101 senses pressing of the pressing button 113 by a low signal, the controller 101 outputs a switching control signal that enables the switching unit 160 to be switched to the bone conduction speaker unit 150 through the switching signal line 103. The switching unit 160, having received an input of the switching control signal is switched to input an audio signal input through the audio signal line 102 to the bone conduction speaker unit 150. Thereby, the user can hear an audio signal through a bone conduction speaker without an output of a sound signal, but another party cannot hear a sound signal and thus a private life of the user can be protected (S30). Thereafter, the controller 101 determines whether pressing of the pressing button 113 is released (S40). If pressing of the pressing button 113 is not released, by maintaining a present switching state to the bone conduction speaker unit 150, after outputting audio through the bone conduction speaker unit 150, the controller 101 determines whether pressing of the pressing button is released (S50). Alternatively, as the user separates the audio speaker unit 110 from a contact portion of a periphery of an ear or a jaw bone, the pressing button 113 is returned to an original position by the spring 114 and thus if pressing of the pressing button 113 is released at step S40, a ground switch is separated from the ground and thus a high signal is input again to the controller 101 by the reference voltage source VCC. The controller 101, having received an input of a high signal again outputs a switching control signal for switching to the audio speaker unit 110 to the switching unit 160 and thus the switching unit 160 is switched and is operated to output an audio signal to the audio speaker unit 110. In the above-described processing process, if the pressing button 113 is pressed at step S20, when an audio signal is output by communication or reproduction of a multimedia file, if the user contacts the audio speaker unit 110 with the ear so that the pressing button 113 is not pressed, the switching unit 160 maintains a state that outputs an audio signal to the audio speaker unit 110 (S60).

The conventional art relates to a mobile communication terminal including a bone conduction speaker and an audio speaker and including the bone conduction speaker that outputs an audio signal through the bone conduction speaker when a speaker is positioned at a position other than the ear by sensing the user's speaker contact position and a method of driving the same.

However, the conventional art has the following many problems.

That is, at the conventional art, at a front surface of the terminal, because a receiver hole (speaker unit) is provided, there is a large problem that cannot form an entire front surface of the terminal into a screen window.

Further, in the conventional art, because a vibrator does not attach to a liquid crystal screen or a front panel of the terminal, there is a large problem that an entire front surface of the terminal cannot receive sound.

Further, the conventional art has a problem that sound can be received only when close contacting a speaker portion with the ear, i.e., a problem that sound of high sensitivity cannot be received with a bone conduction function when close contacting the terminal with the ear or a periphery portion of the ear of the face.

Particularly, the conventional art has a problem that peripheral noise is together transferred while communicating, i.e., a large problem that only a communicating person's voice cannot be transmitted regardless of peripheral noise.

While this invention has been described in connection with what is presently considered to be practical exemplary embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but, on the contrary, is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

An operation and function of a communication terminal having a bone conduction function according to the present invention having the above-described configuration will be described.

In the present invention, by removing a receiver hole (speaker) provided at a front surface of a conventional communication terminal (e.g., a smart phone, a Galaxy Tab, a Galaxy Phone, a mobile phone, a PDA, an MP3, an iPhone, an iPad, and a wireless set), an entire front surface of the terminal can be formed in a screen window, and particularly, by attaching a vibrator to a liquid crystal screen or a front panel of the terminal, the entire front surface of the terminal can receive sound, and when close contacting the terminal with an ear or a peripheral portion of an ear of a face, the terminal can receive sound of high sensitivity with a bone conduction function and can transmit only a communicating person's voice regardless of peripheral noise.

For this purpose, when sequentially coupling parts shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the bone conduction vibration receiver/speaker 300 applied to the present invention is assembled as shown in FIG. 8, and by forming a existing circular shape in a quadrangular shape, the bone conduction vibration receiver/speaker 300 can be formed in a compact structure, and when inserting into a groove without a jig, the bone conduction vibration receiver/speaker 300 can be simply assembled and installed and thus productivity can be improved.

As shown in FIG. 9, when attaching and using the bone conduction vibration receiver/speaker 300 assembled as described above to a rear surface of the liquid crystal screen 401 of the communication terminal 400, a receiving receiver positioned at an upper end portion of the mobile phone can be removed, and thus by enlarging space of a receiving receiver to a liquid crystal screen, a screen larger than a present screen can be formed and used.

As shown in FIG. 10, when attaching and using the bone conduction vibration receiver/speaker 300 to a rear surface of liquid crystal panel 402 of the communication terminal 400, a conventional receiver hole for transferring sound can be removed and thus a waterproof effect can be improved

Particularly, the present invention is used by attaching the bone conduction vibration receiver/speaker 300 to the liquid crystal screen 401 or the liquid crystal panel 402 of the communication terminal 400, a front surface entire of the communication terminal 400 can receive sound (air conduction), and when close contacting the communication terminal 400 with a face, the present invention can receive sound with a bone conduction function.

Further, it is preferable that the voice coil 330 applied to the present invention is formed by winding a coil of 0.06 to 1.0 mm in a structure of 4 to 6 layers.

That is, when the coil is 0.06 mm or less, the coil is so thin and may be thus cut, and when the coil is 1.0 mm or more, there is a problem that a sound signal is deteriorated.

When the coil is formed in 4 layers or less, an insecure electrical signal occurs, and when the coil is formed in 6 layers or more, a cost increases, and thus it is preferable that the voice coil 330 is formed by winding a coil of 0.06 to 1.0 mm in a structure of 4 to 6 layers.

Further, it is preferable that the voice coil 330 is formed with a low impedance coil of 4-16o, and when impedance is 4o or less, it is difficult to perform impedance matching with a driving amplifier, and when impedance is 16o or more, a high output driving amplifier is necessary and thus it is preferable that the voice coil 330 is formed with a low impedance coil of 4-16o.

Further, it is preferable that the voice coil 330 is formed with a low impedance coil of 4 to 16Ω, and when impedance is 4Ω or less, a current response is so slow, and when impedance is 16Ω or more, a current response is so fast and thus transmission is impossible, whereby it is preferable that the voice coil 330 is formed with a low impedance coil of 4 to 16Ω.

The bone conduction vibration no-noise microphone 200 applied to the present invention is assembled as shown in FIG. 12 by sequentially coupling parts shown in FIG. 11, and by forming an existing circular shape into a quadrangular shape, the bone conduction vibration no-noise microphone 200 may be formed in a compact structure, and when the bone conduction vibration no-noise microphone 200 is inserted into a groove without a jig, the bone conduction vibration no-noise microphone 200 can be simply assembled and installed and thus productivity can be improved.

As shown in FIG. 13, the bone conduction vibration no-noise microphone 200 assembled as described above is used by attaching to a rear surface of the liquid crystal screen 401 of the communication terminal 400, and in a state in which the bone conduction vibration no-noise microphone 200 is attached to an upper end portion of the communication terminal 400, when a communicating person communicates by close contacting this portion with a face, the bone conduction vibration no-noise microphone 200 can transmit only communicating person's voice regardless of peripheral noise with a bone conduction microphone function.

Particularly, it is preferable that the voice coil 230 applied to the bone conduction vibration no-noise microphone 200 applied to the present invention is formed by winding a coil of 0.02 to 0.06 mm in a structure of 8 to 10 layers.

That is, when the coil is 0.02 mm or less, the coil is so thin and may be thus cut, and when the coil is 0.06 mm or more, there is a problem that a sound signal is deteriorated.

When the coil is formed in 8 layers or less, an insecure electrical signal occurs, and when the coil is formed in 10 layers or more, a cost increases, and thus it is preferable that the voice coil 230 is formed by winding a coil of 0.02 to 0.06 mm in a structure of 8 to 10 layers.

Further, it is preferable that the voice coil 230 applied to the present invention is formed with a high impedance coil of 150-200o, and when impedance is 150o or less, an electromotive force (voltage) induced to a voice coil is slow, and when impedance is 200o or more, an induced electromotive force (voltage) is appropriate, but economic efficiency is largely deteriorated, and thus it is preferable that the voice coil 230 is formed with a high impedance coil of 150-200o.
