Slide type mobile communication terminal capable of mounting memory card
View Patent ↗Disclosed is a slide-type mobile communication terminal capable of mounting a memory card, wherein the memory card can be easily mounted/detached and a mounted state of the memory card can be stably maintained while minimizing a thickness increase of the terminal due to the mount of the memory card, by forming a receiving recess for mounting the memory card on a rear surface of a slide cover.
1. A slidable mobile communication terminal capable of mounting a memory card comprising:
a receiving recess formed on a rear surface of a slide cover so as to mount an memory card; guides guiding an entry of the memory card and preventing the mounted memory card from deviating; and
a socket connecting the memory card electronically with a main PCB which is contained in the slide cover,
wherein the receiving recess is formed on a rear surface of the slide cover, which is exposed to outside without facing a main body of the mobile communication terminal when the slide cover is entirely pushed-up against the main body.
2. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the receiving recess is formed to have a same depth as a thickness of the memory card or more.
3. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the socket comprises:
a contact terminal of which one end is connected to the main PCB electronically and the other end is connected to terminal pin of the memory card electronically;
a sidewall part supporting one side of the contact terminal; and
a ceiling part supporting an upper surface of the contact terminal by extending from the sidewall part toward entrance of the receiving recess.
4. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 1 , wherein each of the contact terminals comprises:
a solder pad part soldered on the main PCB;
a column part upward extending from one side of the solder pad part and embedded in the sidewall part; and
a sliding-contact part contacting with terminal pins of the memory card by extending from the column part to the entrance of the receiving recess along the ceiling part.
5. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the socket further comprises a support part stabilizing the contact between the terminal pin of the memory card and the sliding-contact part of the contact terminal.
6. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the memory card is one of the MINI(SD(Mini Secure Digital) card, a SD card, a MMC (Multi Media Card), a SM (Smart Media) card and a Sony memory stick.
