Embodiment approach 1

[0038] In Embodiment 1, the portable electronic device of the present invention will be described using a mobile phone.

[0039] exist figure 1 , figure 2 , image 3 In , the mobile phone according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention is shown. In the figure, the outer shape is a substantially rectangular and hollow casing 11, which is constituted by a first casing 12 above the assembly platform and a second casing 13 below.

[0040] Then, the casing 11 has an upper surface 11A as an operation surface. On the upper part of the upper surface 11A, there is a display device 15 composed of a receiver book 14 and liquid crystal display elements, EL elements, etc., and on the lower part of the upper surface 11A, there are digital keypads 16 and a speaking part 17. In addition, at a position between the display device 15 and the numeric keypad 16, there is a ring-shaped operation portion 18 that can be rotated.

[0041] In addition, on the inner side of the ring-shaped ope...

example 1

[0064] First, the user operates the first operating device 26, the numeric keypad 16, etc., such as Image 6 As shown, the display device 15 is caused to display the telephone directory.

[0065] The telephone directory, such as Image 6 As shown, each of A, B, C... constitutes a page, and they start with A, and then overlap and arrange in the order of B, C... behind it.

[0066] Then, on each page, the telephone number corresponding to one person's name is continuously recorded in the column direction, and it becomes a structure in which a plurality of columns are arranged in the order of Aa, Ab, and Ac. On the display device 15, only the head part thereof is displayed, and the selected item can be judged by the cursor 33.

[0067] The control unit 32 controls the mobile phone so that the mobile phone can be scrolled item by item in the up and down direction within a predetermined page of the telephone directory by pressing and operating the first operating device 26 in the...

Embodiment approach 2

[0092]Using Embodiment 2, another portable electronic device of the present invention will be described.

[0093] The mobile phone described in Embodiment 2 differs from the mobile phone in Embodiment 1 in the configurations of the first operating device and the second operating device. The configuration of other parts, the control of zooming in and out of the display content in the display device 15 by the control unit 32 through the second operating device, and the like are the same as those in the first embodiment. Therefore, the same symbols are attached to the same parts and detailed explanations are omitted.

[0094] Such as Figure 9 As shown, the casing 43 is constituted by combining the first casing 41 on the upper side and the second casing 42 on the lower side. The rubber-made operation part 44 corresponding to the second operation device protrudes outward from the circular hole 41A formed in the first case 41 . In addition, the operation part 44 made of rubber h...

Abstract

Portable electronic equipment capable of changing the display on a display means so that the display has letters of a desired size, by a simple operation. The portable electronic equipment has a display means for displaying information, a first manipulator means for performing a first screen process on the information displayed on the display means, a second manipulator means for performing a second screen process on the information by operation in a circumferential direction thereof, and a controller means. The controller means controls the first manipulator means, the second manipulator means, and the display means. Thereby, the controller can perform the first screen process of scrolling the screen in an arbitrary direction to select a display position and the second screen process of scaling up, scaling down, and switching the screen with the selected display position as a reference.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to portable electronic devices such as mobile phones and PDAs. Background technique [0002] In recent years, various electronic devices have been reduced in size and weight, and portable electronic devices such as mobile phones and PDAs have become popular. [0003] use Figure 13 Such a conventional portable electronic device will be described. [0004] Figure 13 It is a perspective view of the appearance of a mobile phone as a conventional portable electronic device. In this figure, on the upper surface of the operation surface of the casing 1 that becomes a substantially rectangular parallelepiped, a receiver 2, an LCD, etc. are arranged in order from the upper position. It consists of a display device 3 , a press-operated multi-directional switch 5 having a cross-shaped button, a digital key (Tenkey) unit 6 , and a speaking unit 7 . [0005] Then, an antenna 8 is disposed on the upper portion of the casing 1 . [...
