Problems solved by technology

However, when the modules of the infrared transceivers are placed on positions remarkably diverged from reference positions to the left or right, it is almost impossible to match the data sending/receiving modules of electronic appliances within an effective data communication region.
Therefore, the known infrared transceivers are not effectively used with electronic appliances used in offices where it is almost impossible to match the direction of the data sending/receiving modules of the appliances or limit the distance between the modules.
Particularly, due to the above problems experienced in known infrared transceivers, it is very difficult to match the direction of the data sendin

Embodiment Construction

[0028] Turn now to FIG. 1, which is a perspective view of a portable computer with infrared data communication capabilities, in accordance with the principles of the preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the portable computer 10 for infrared data communication of this invention comprises two parts: a main body 12 and a display body 14. A data input keyboard 16 is provided on the top surface of the main body 10, while a main board (not shown) is installed in the body 10. The main board is provided with a circuit performing infrared data communication. The display body 14 is hinged to the rear edge of the main body 12 with a display panel 18 of the body 14 being opposed to the keyboard 16 of the main body 12 when the main body 12 is covered with the display body 14. When the display body 14 is opened at an angle, it displays the data operating process on its display panel 18. The above display body 14 is also used as a cover for the main body 12. That is, ...

Abstract

A portable computer with infrared data communication capabilities is disclosed. The computer has an infrared transceiver capable of enlarging the data sending/receiving angle and reliably performing radio data communication with another electronic appliance. The computer also has a selection circuit capable of activating all light elements during a data sending operation or selecting one active light receiving element from a plurality of light receiving elements during a data receiving operation, thus performing a reliable infrared data communication. In the computer, an opening is formed on an outside edge of the display body. Both an infrared data sending unit, consisting of at least one light element, and an infrared data receiving unit, consisting of at least one light receiving element, are commonly carried on a circuit board set in the opening of the display body.

Description

CLAIM OF PRIORITY[0001] This application makes reference to, incorporates the same herein, and claims all benefits accruing under 35 U.S.C. .sctn. 119 from an application entitled portable Computer For Infrared Data Communication earlier filed in the Korean Industrial Property Office on Oct. 17, 1997, and there duly assigned Serial No. 97-53475, a copy of which is annexed hereto.[0002] 1. Technical Field[0003] The present invention relates to a portable computer with infrared data communication capabilities, and more particularly to a portable computer provided with an infrared transceiver capable of reliably performing radio data communication with other electronic devices.[0004] 2.
