Abstract

An apparatus for automatic switching functions of components thereof, includes a housing having an upper end and a lower end, a first microphone fixed on the upper end of the housing, a second microphone fixed on the lower end of the housing, an orientation detecting unit having an acceleration sensor for detecting the current orientation of the apparatus for generating an orientation signal, a switching control unit for switching the functions of the microphones when the orientation signal indicates the apparatus is reversed.

Claims (6)

1. A mobile phone for automatic adjusting functions of components thereof, comprising:

a housing having a configuration of a substantially rectangular mass and including an upper end and a lower end opposed to the upper end;

a first microphone mounted on the upper end of the housing and a second microphone mounted on the lower end of the housing, each of the first and second microphones having a function of receiving environmental noises for noise cancelling and a function of receiving voices;

an orientation detecting unit including an acceleration sensor for detecting a current orientation of the mobile phone, and for generating an orientation signal according to the current orientation of the mobile phone;

a switching control unit for receiving the orientation signal, and further for switching the first microphone between the function of receiving environmental noises and the function of receiving voices, and for switching the second microphone to work on the function different from the function that the first microphone works on;

at least two receivers mounted in the housing for converting audio signals into voices, one of the receivers located at the upper end of the housing and the other located at the lower end of the housing.
