[0031] figure 1 is an external view of the foldable mobile phone in the folded state according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The folder-type mobile phone 1 is configured such that a first body 1a and a second body 1b are connected together by a hinge mechanism 2 for pivoting the first body 1a. The antenna 3 protrudes from the second main body 1b, and is used to transmit and receive information for verification of transmission-reception signals and data regarding iris characteristics or image data such as photographs. The antenna 3 may protrude from the first body 1a or be incorporated therein.

[0032] According to the first embodiment of the present invention, the liquid crystal display is arranged on the first body 1a, and the keyboard manipulation part is arranged on the second body 1b. The liquid crystal display and the keyboard manipulation portion are put together in a folded state, whereby they are not visible, and in this folded state, the foldabl...

[0059] Image 6 is a schematic side view of an unfolded mobile phone according to a second embodiment of the present invention. A wide-angle lens 52 and a telephoto lens 53 are installed in the mobile phone 51 . The wide-angle lens 52 can slide along and parallel to the surface of the mobile phone 51 (as indicated by the double arrow E), thereby selecting one of two positions (imageable and non-imageable). The telephoto lens 53 rotates 90° around the support shaft 54 ​​(shown by the double arrow F), so as to select one of two positions (imageable position and non-imageable position).

[0060] When imaging with the wide-angle lens 52 is required, the user manually lifts the telephoto lens 53 by 90° to the position shown by the dotted line, whereby the wide-angle lens 52 slides to the imageable position, as will be described below. When it is necessary to use the telephoto lens 53 for imaging, the telephoto lens 53 is set to the imageable position (the position shown by the so...

Abstract

A mobile telephone having a first body and a second body which are foldably coupled via a hinge mechanism 2, a wide-angle lens for obtaining a wide-angle image, a telephoto lens for obtaining an enlarged image, and an image pickup element installed in an image focusing place. The mobile telephone includes a slide mechanism for not only causing the enlarged image to be input to the image pickup element provided in the second body through the telephoto lens provided in the first body with the mobile telephone folded but also sliding the image pickup element in the second body in response to the pivotal action of the hinge mechanism when the first body and the second body are unfolded so as to cause the wide-angle image to be input to the image pickup element through the wide-angle lens provided in the second body.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to a mobile phone, and in particular to a mobile phone designed with a common camera part for obtaining zoomed-in images by means of a telephoto lens and capturing panoramas by means of a wide-angle lens. Background technique [0002] With the widespread popularization of mobile phones and the development of making mobile phones more multifunctional, mobile phones carrying personal information have been proposed so that payments can be made through mobile phones instead of credit cards in recent years. However, the way mobile phones are used must also be devised with countermeasures against illegal use by strangers. [0003] For example, in Japanese Patent Publication 2001-92786 and Japanese Patent Publication 2000-307715, mobile phones use iris, fingerprints, etc. to identify individuals, so that each mobile phone can determine whether its occupant is a legal owner, thus prohibiting Use of the mobile phone by a...
