Mobile terminal
View Patent ↗A mobile terminal is provided with a housing, a battery pack, and a secondary-side non-contact charging module. In a plan view along the thickness direction of the housing, the battery pack is arranged in a first area, and the secondary-side non-contact charging module is arranged in a second area that is adjacent to the first area. The secondary-side non-contact charging module overlaps with the intersection of a center line for the second area, said center line following the direction in which the first area and the second area are adjacent to each other, and a center line for the width direction of the housing, said center line being orthogonal to the direction in which the first area and the second area are adjacent to each other in the second area.
1. A mobile terminal comprising:
a housing;
a circuit board included in the housing and having a thickness direction normal to a plane of the circuit board;
a battery pack included in the housing; and
a non-contact charging module included in the housing, the non-contact charging module including:
a charging coil formed of a wound conducting wire;
a communication coil arranged adjacent to the charging coil; and
a magnetic sheet on which the charging coil and the communication coil are arranged, wherein the magnetic sheet has a rectangular shape including four edges and four corner portions, each pair of adjacent edges forms a virtual corner, each corner portion is receded inwardly from its corresponding virtual corner by a receding distance, and at least one of four receding distances is greater than another one of the four receding distances; wherein
at least a portion of the non-contact charging module overlaps with the circuit board as viewed in the thickness direction of the circuit board.
2. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein a difference between each corner portion and its corresponding virtual corner defines a missing area, and the missing area of the corner portion having the greater receding distance is greater than the missing area of the corner portion having the smaller receding distance.
3. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the communication coil is a near field communication (NFC) coil.
4. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , further comprising a camera,
wherein the charging coil is arranged closer to the battery pack than to the camera in a plane normal to the thickness direction of the circuit board.
5. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the communication coil includes a conducting wire pattern-printed on a substrate.
6. A chargeable communication module comprising:
a wireless power charging coil;
a wireless communication coil electrically isolated from the wireless power charging coil; and
a magnetic sheet having a rectangular shape including four edges and four corner portions, wherein each pair of adjacent edges forms a virtual corner, each corner portion is receded inwardly from its corresponding virtual corner by a receding distance, and at least one of four receding distances is greater than another one of the four receding distances;
wherein,
the wireless power charging coil is disposed on a surface of the magnetic sheet,
the wireless communication coil is arranged adjacent to the wireless power charging coil, and
at least a portion of the wireless communication coil is disposed on the surface of the magnetic sheet.
7. The chargeable communication module of claim 6 , wherein a difference between each corner portion and its corresponding virtual corner defines a missing area, and the missing area of the corner portion having the greater receding distance is greater than the missing area of the corner portion having the smaller receding distance.
8. The chargeable communication module of claim 6 , wherein the wireless communication coil is a near field communication (NFC) coil.
9. The chargeable communication module of claim 6 , wherein the wireless communication coil includes a conducting wire pattern-printed on a substrate.
