本発明を実施するための最良の形態を実施例に基づき図面を参照して説明する。 The best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described based on an embodiment with reference to the drawings.
図１は本発明の携帯電話機の斜視図である。
携帯電話機１０の筐体は内部構成部品（制御部，送受信部，操作部，表示部，内蔵電池，充電端子等）を収納する本体ケース１１と裏蓋１２とから成り、いずれも透明太陽電池で構成されている。
透明太陽電池は、予めガラス基板を携帯電話機の形状に成型し、これに多数の可視光透過型光起電力セルを形成し、所定の電圧と電流を出力するように、適宜にこれら多数のセルから成るモジュールを直並列に接続したものである。
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a mobile phone according to the present invention.
The casing of the mobile phone 10 includes a main body case 11 and a back cover 12 that house internal components (control unit, transmission / reception unit, operation unit, display unit, built-in battery, charging terminal, etc.), all of which are transparent solar cells. It is configured.
A transparent solar cell is formed by molding a glass substrate into the shape of a mobile phone in advance, forming a number of visible light transmission type photovoltaic cells on the cell, and outputting a predetermined voltage and current appropriately. Are connected in series and parallel.
図１において、１３はキーボタンから成る操作部、１４は表示部、１５はマイク、１６はスピーカ、１７は充電端子、１８はアンテナである。
本体ケース１１には、予め各所定位置に、操作部１３のキーボタン用開口、充電端子用開口、マイク用開口、スピーカ用開口、キーボタン用開口、充電端子用開口、表示部用開口が設けられており、これらの開口以外に前記のように可視光透過型光起電力セルが形成される。
表示部１４の対応部分に開口を設けないで、表示部の上面を太陽電池で覆うようにしてもよく、受光面積を大きくすることができる。
In FIG. 1, 13 is an operation unit comprising key buttons, 14 is a display unit, 15 is a microphone, 16 is a speaker, 17 is a charging terminal, and 18 is an antenna.
The main body case 11 is previously provided with a key button opening, a charging terminal opening, a microphone opening, a speaker opening, a key button opening, a charging terminal opening, and a display opening for the operation unit 13 at predetermined positions. In addition to these openings, a visible light transmission type photovoltaic cell is formed as described above.
The upper surface of the display unit may be covered with a solar cell without providing an opening in the corresponding part of the display unit 14, and the light receiving area can be increased.
本発明によれば、上記の各開口部分を除いて筐体の全面が透明太陽電池で構成されることになるので、受光面積が大きくなり、使用中であっても、又不使用中に携帯電話機をどのように置いても、表面側（操作部側）又は裏面側及び各側面側が受光面となって、十分な発生電力を得ることができる。
そして得られた発生電力は例えば、液晶表示部のバックライトの電源として、内蔵電池の充電電源として、内蔵電池の代わりの携帯電話機の動作電源として、使用される。これにより、全体として内蔵電池の消耗を抑えることができる。
According to the present invention, since the entire surface of the casing is made up of a transparent solar cell except for the openings described above, the light receiving area is increased, and even when in use, it is portable when not in use. Regardless of how the telephone is placed, the front surface side (operation unit side) or the back surface side and each side surface side serve as a light receiving surface, and sufficient generated power can be obtained.
The generated power is used, for example, as a power source for a backlight of a liquid crystal display unit, as a charging power source for a built-in battery, and as an operating power source for a mobile phone instead of the built-in battery. Thereby, the consumption of the internal battery can be suppressed as a whole.
なお透明太陽電池の発生電力を上記のいずれの電源として使用する場合であっても、発生電圧の大きさは入射光量に左右されるので、そのままの電圧を電源電圧として使用することはできない。
そこで携帯電話機の動作電圧に適合するように調整する電圧調整回路を設け、透明太陽電池の発生電力をこの電圧調整回路を介して供給する。
Even when the generated power of the transparent solar cell is used as any of the above power sources, the generated voltage depends on the amount of incident light, so that the voltage as it is cannot be used as the power source voltage.
Therefore, a voltage adjusting circuit for adjusting the operating voltage of the mobile phone is provided, and the generated power of the transparent solar cell is supplied through this voltage adjusting circuit.
図２は図１のＡ−Ａ断面図である。
本発明では携帯電話機の筐体を透明太陽電池で構成しているので、筐体内に収納されている内部構成部品（制御部，送受信部，操作部，表示部，内蔵電池，充電端子等）が透明太陽電池製の筐体を通して見えることになる。
内部構成部品が筐体を通して見えても、これを積極的にデザインとして利用する場合には、このまま携帯電話機として使用することができる。
2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in FIG.
In the present invention, since the casing of the mobile phone is formed of a transparent solar cell, internal components (control unit, transmission / reception unit, operation unit, display unit, built-in battery, charging terminal, etc.) housed in the casing are included. It will be visible through a transparent solar cell housing.
Even if the internal components can be seen through the housing, if they are actively used as a design, they can be used as mobile phones as they are.
本実施例は、内部構成部品が筐体を通して見えないようにしたものであり、透明太陽電池で構成されている本体ケース１１と裏蓋１２のそれぞれの内側のガラス板を、透明のままでなく、不透明になるように好みの色彩に着色する。これによりいろいろな色彩の携帯電話機とすることができる。 In this embodiment, the internal components are hidden from view through the housing, and the glass plates inside the body case 11 and the back cover 12 made of transparent solar cells are not transparent. Color your favorite color to make it opaque. Thereby, it can be set as a mobile phone of various colors.
或いは上記本体ケース１１と裏蓋１２のそれぞれの内面に好みの色彩で適宜の材料から成る不透明な薄い覆い部材２０，２１を装着する（例えば、貼り付ける）。この不透明な薄い覆い部材２０，２１として柔軟性のあるものを用いると、内部構成部品に対する緩衝材となる。 Alternatively, opaque thin covering members 20 and 21 made of an appropriate material in a desired color are mounted on the inner surfaces of the main body case 11 and the back cover 12 (for example, pasted). When a flexible material is used as the opaque thin covering members 20 and 21, a cushioning material for the internal components is obtained.
なおいずれの場合も、表示部１４の上面を太陽電池で覆うものにあっては、その部分は透明のままとする。
その他については、実施例１と同様である。
In either case, if the upper surface of the display unit 14 is covered with a solar cell, that portion remains transparent.
About others, it is the same as that of Example 1. FIG.
