ABSTRACT:

This application is a national stage application, according to Chapter II of the Patent Cooperation Treaty. This application claims th priority date of Jun. 11, 1997 for Spanish Patent Application No. U 9701634.
TECHNICAL FIELD AND BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention refers to a new telephone device, suitable to be coupled to the user's wrist, with the comfort which it involves, and endowed with multiple advantages related to the devices already known, up to the present date, all of them enabling to obtain an apparatus of the reduced size and weight which provide the desired objectives of comfortable transport and easy use.
One of the main cores of development of new products in the matter of movable telephony and wireless telephony terminals, is directed to a reduction of its weight and size, so as to provide, in this way, instruments which are more comfortable to use and to carry.
At the moment, the reduction of the size and the weight of those instruments is strictly based on the electronic and electrical aspects, such as on the one hand the miniaturization of electronic components and on the other hand the increment of the charge capacity of the feeding electrical batteries, which enable day after day a considerable reduction of the size of apparatus of movable telephony of wireless telephony terminals, without decreasing its power, fidelity and autonomy performances. Nevertheless, the reduction of the size and weight originated by these factors is very expensive since it needs a high basic research cost.
There is then a technical need to reach a reduction of the size and reduction of the weight of those instruments, so that they are more comfortable to use and to carry.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is based on the knowledge that an additional reduction of size and/or easier use and transport, may also be reached by means of an appropriated functional disposition of the different elements which form these instruments, i.e. of its operation keyboard, viewing display and feeding batteries, so that they can be a part of the bracelet portable device.
According to the invention, this object is reached by means of a telephone device with a movable telephone apparatus/wireless telephone terminal coupled to a bearing with the shape of bracelet for the wrist of the user characterized, according to its first claim, in that:
at least a portion of the bracelet bearing includes, or is itself, an/several electrical battery/ies to feed the said apparatus;
the movable telephone apparatus/wireless telephone terminal, is mounted upon the bracelet bearing, so that being coupled upon the user's wrist, its front panel with its operation keyboard, presentation display/ies and microphone are directed to the outside, so the said panel may be activated and may be observed and by means of the turning of the user's wrist its microphone will be placed in front of the mouth of the user; and
removably asociated to the housing of the movable telephone apparatus/wireless telephone terminal there is provided a ring shaped piece, which can be coupled to a user's finger, which carries the earphone of the said apparatus and which is connected to it, by means of an extensible wire of electrical connection, or by radio.
According to an additional feature, according to the second claim, the bracelet bearing has extensible portions and/or fitting and closing mecanisms for a fitted coupling and comfortable to the wrist of the user.
According to another feature of the invention, according to the third claim, the movable telephone apparatus/wireless telephone terminal has an oblong disposition and is arranged with its main symmetry axe in oblique form related to the longitudinal axe of the wrist bearing, preferibly with an inclination of 45°, so that the useful lenght of its front is as big as possible without exceeding the widhtwise of the user's wrist.
Moreover, according to the invention, the keyboard, with buttons or digital, is disposed on the periphery of the apparatus so as to allow the use of the whole of its front surface as a display.
Aditionally, the aditional apparatus, for example, watch, compass, alarm, micro-computer, remote control, G-P.S. receiver, digital recorder, pedometer or is similar are disposed upon the bearing bracelet on the opposite side to the said telephone apparatus.
Other features and advantages of the invention will appear clearer from the following description, carried out with the assistance of the appended drawings which show an example of performance non limiting, and in which:
