Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of mobile phone devices for the elderly, and in particular to a handheld terminal with an emergency button. Background Technology

[0002] Current handheld devices typically have alarm and call functions, but these require accessing an interface, making them difficult to operate immediately in emergency situations. This is especially true for the elderly, who may struggle to operate them in emergencies such as falls or injuries. One-button alarm functions were later developed, but these are prone to accidental activation. Utility Model Content

[0023] Figure 3 for Figure 1 Local magnification Figure 2 ;

[0024] Figure 4 for Figure 1 Local magnification Figure 3 ;

[0025] Figure 5 This is a partial half-section view of the handheld terminal. Detailed Implementation

[0026] To make the technical problems solved, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0027] A handheld terminal with an emergency button, including

[0028] The housing 1 has a first through hole 11.

[0029] Button 2 is located in the first through hole 11;

[0030] A bracket 3, disposed within the housing 1, has a second through hole 31 corresponding to the first through hole 11. The second through hole 31 allows the button 2 to pass through. The bracket 3 restricts the button 2 from being flush with or embedded in the first through hole 11. Since the button 2 is directly mounted on the outer cover 13 of the housing 1 and is flush with or embedded in the first through hole 11, in an emergency, the user can quickly trigger the alarm or emergency call function by touching and pressing the button 2 with their finger without complicated operations. Simultaneously, the first chamfer 111 on the outer side of the first through hole 11 facilitates natural finger insertion, further improving operational convenience.

[0031] The base frame 4 has a circuit board 5 mounted on it, and the button 2 is used to trigger the circuit board 5.

[0032] This utility model provides a handheld terminal with an emergency button. The button is directly mounted on the housing, allowing for immediate activation of alarm or SOS functions in emergency situations. Operation is convenient and quick, enabling immediate response. To prevent accidental contact, the button is flush with or embedded in the first through-hole. The circuit board controls hardware such as lights and speakers, or related software.

[0033] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, the housing 1 is provided with a battery 6, a ribbon cable 7 electrically connected to the battery 6, and the circuit board 5 is electrically connected to the ribbon cable 7.

[0034] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, the base frame 4 is provided with two positioning posts 41, and the circuit board 5 has positioning holes 51 at both ends that mate with the two positioning posts 41. This prevents the circuit board from shifting and ensures that the buttons can be triggered normally.

[0035] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation thereof, the housing 1 includes a back cover 12 and an outer cover 13 disposed on the back cover 12. The first through hole 11 is disposed on the outer cover 13, and its outer opening has a first chamfer 111 to facilitate the insertion of a finger into the first through hole.

[0036] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, a second chamfer 311 is provided at the opening inside the second through hole 31 to facilitate button installation.

[0037] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, the back cover 12 is provided with a third through hole 14, and the opening on the inner side of the third through hole 14 is provided with a third chamfer 141. The diameter of the third through hole 14 is larger than the diameter of the first through hole 11 and the diameter of the second through hole 31. This facilitates button installation, and the third through hole can reduce friction with the button. The design of the button 2 being flush with or embedded in the first through hole 11 ensures that the button 2 will not be triggered by accidental collisions during normal use of the handheld terminal. The restraining effect of the bracket 3 on the button 2 ensures that the button 2 will only trigger the circuit board 5 when pressed in a certain direction and with a certain force, effectively avoiding misoperation. In addition, the design of the second chamfer 311 on the inner side of the second through hole 31 and the third through hole 14 and its inner third chamfer 141 on the back cover 12 not only facilitates the installation of the button 2, but also reduces friction with the surrounding structure during the movement of the button 2, making the movement of the button 2 smoother. It also helps to maintain the stability of the button 2 in the non-triggered state, further reducing the possibility of accidental triggering.

[0038] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, the button 2 includes a base portion 21, a contact portion 22 disposed on the base portion 21 and in contact with the circuit board 5, and a support portion 23 surrounding the contact portion 22. The contact portion 22 of the button 2 contacts specific contacts on the circuit board 5 by mechanical pressing. When the button 2 is pressed by external force, the contact portion 22 presses against the contacts on the circuit board 5, making the circuit conductive, thereby triggering the corresponding alarm or emergency call function. The contact portion 22 may be made of conductive silicone material to ensure good electrical contact performance.

[0039] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, the base frame 4 is recessed to allow the chassis portion 21 to descend, and the bracket 3 is provided with an upper clearance groove 32 to allow the chassis portion 21 to rise. This can prevent excessive button pressing and damage to the circuit board.

[0040] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, the positioning post 41 is higher than the circuit board 5 and lower than the lower relief groove 42, and the support part 23 presses against the positioning post 41 when it is pressed down.

[0041] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, the button 2 is made of silicone.

[0042] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this solution and not a limitation, the circuit board is also connected to the camera 8. The battery 6 serves as a power source, providing power to the circuit board 5 via a ribbon cable 7. The ribbon cable 7 also transmits data signals between the circuit board 5 and other components (such as the camera 8). The circuit board 5 integrates a control circuit. When button 2 is triggered, the control circuit activates corresponding functions according to a preset program, such as controlling flashing lights and emitting a sound to trigger an alarm or call for help. Simultaneously, it can control the camera 8 to start recording and other operations.

[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit the scope of implementation of this application. Any other embodiments whose principles and basic structures are the same as or similar to those of this application are within the protection scope of this application.
