  Next, a mobile phone device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the mobile phone device 10 includes a communication unit 12 connected to an antenna 16. The communication unit 12 transmits a signal from a baseband unit 14 to be described later to the base station via the antenna 16 or receives radio waves from the base station via the antenna 16.

  The communication unit 12 is connected to the baseband unit 14. The baseband unit 14 includes a CDMA processing circuit 18 and an audio codec 20. Here, the CDMA processing circuit 18 performs code division multiple access, scrambling, error control, and timing detection. The audio codec 20 compresses (encodes) and decompresses (decodes) the audio, performs analog and digital conversion, and changes the received sound volume and microphone sensitivity by an internal amplifier circuit (not shown). .

  In addition, a switching circuit 22 is connected to the baseband unit 14. A first speaker 26 is connected to the switching circuit 22 via an amplifier circuit 24. The first speaker 26 converts the electric signal of the baseband unit 14 amplified by the amplifier circuit 24 into sound. This first speaker 26 is applied to the user's ear and used for a call.

  Further, the microphone 30 is connected to the switching circuit 22 via the amplifier circuit 28. The microphone 30 is used for a call and converts sound into an electrical signal. The electrical signal output from the microphone 30 is amplified by the amplifier circuit 28 and output to the baseband unit 14.

  Further, a second speaker 34 is connected to the switching circuit 22 via an amplifier circuit 32. The second speaker 34 converts the electric signal of the baseband unit 14 amplified by the amplifier circuit 32 into sound. The second speaker 34 is a loudspeaker for listening to the surrounding people of the received sound. The second speaker 34 also sounds an incoming call notification. Note that the gains of these three amplifier circuits 24, 28, and 32 are fixed, and the volume of the first speaker 26 and the second speaker 34 and the sensitivity of the microphone 30 cannot be changed.

  The switching circuit 22 is connected to the baseband unit 14 on the side of the amplifier circuit 24 for the first speaker 26 and the amplifier circuit 28 for the microphone 30, or the amplifier circuit 32 for the second speaker 34 for loud sound. And switching to the amplifying circuit 28 side for the microphone 30.

  In addition, the mobile phone device 10 includes a GPS communication unit 58 connected to the GPS antenna 56. The GPS communication unit 58 converts the radio wave of the current position information captured by the GPS antenna 56 into an electrical signal and outputs the electrical signal to the control circuit 36. Note that the current position information of the mobile phone device 10 output to the control circuit 36 is stored in the RAM 40.

  A control circuit 36 is connected to each of the communication unit 12, the baseband unit 14, the switching circuit 22, and the GPS receiving unit 58. Switching by the switching circuit 22 described above is performed under the control of the control circuit 36. The control circuit 36 controls the audio codec 20 of the baseband unit 14, and the audio codec 20 changes the volume of the first speaker 26 and the second speaker 34 and the sensitivity of the microphone 30. The control circuit 36 is connected to the ROM 38 and controls each unit based on a system program stored in the ROM 38. The control circuit 36 is connected to a RAM 40 in which predetermined information necessary for the operation of the control circuit 36 is stored. In addition, the control circuit 36 has a built-in timer. By counting with this timer, a key lock state in which characters cannot be input from the input unit 44 or the like as described later continues for a predetermined time or more. It is judged by the control circuit 36 whether or not it is.

  Here, predetermined information is stored in the RAM 40. Specifically, the names and phone numbers of friends and relatives registered in the telephone directory, the contents of the received e-mail and the contents of the transmitted e-mail, the mobile phone received by the GPS receiver 58 via the GPS antenna 56 Character information such as current position information of the telephone device 10 may be used.

  The RAM 40 stores a designation destination for transmitting the information. Specifically, an e-mail address of a personal computer at home or an e-mail address of another mobile phone device may be mentioned.

  Further, the RAM 40 stores a lock number for making it impossible to input by an input unit 44 described later, or canceling this impossible and enabling input by the input unit 44. For this reason, when a lock number is input by the input unit 44 (for example, the numeric keypad 48), the control circuit 36 is activated to enter a key lock state in which input by the input unit 44 is impossible. When the lock number is input, the control circuit 36 is activated to release the key lock state, and input by the input unit 44 is enabled.

  An input unit 44 is connected to the control circuit 36. The input unit 44 includes a numeric keypad 48 for inputting a telephone number and the like, a call key 50 for operating a call start, a cut key 52 for operating a call end, a function key 54 for setting various functions, have.

  The control circuit 36 is connected to an illumination unit 46 having a predetermined color LED element. The display 42 is given a predetermined color by light emission of the LED element of the illumination unit 46.

  Next, a registration content automatic transmission method using the mobile phone device 10 according to the present embodiment will be described based on the flowchart shown in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 2, first, the control circuit 36 determines whether or not the key is locked (step 100). When the key lock state is determined by the control circuit 36, a timer built in the control circuit 36 is activated and starts counting (for example, counts for 5 hours) (step 120). Next, the control circuit 36 determines whether or not there is a key operation by the input unit 44 (step 140). If the control circuit 36 determines that there is a key operation by the input unit 44, it is determined whether or not a lock number has been input by the control circuit 36 (step 160). If it is determined by the control circuit 36 that the lock number has been input, the key lock state is released (step 180). Thereby, the input by the input part 44 is attained. When the key lock state is released, the timer built in the control circuit 36 stops (step 200). When the control circuit 36 determines that the lock number has not been input, the display 42 is controlled by the control circuit 36 and “key locked” is displayed on the display 42 (step 220).

  On the other hand, when the control circuit 36 determines that there is no key operation by the input unit 44, the control circuit 36 determines whether or not the key lock state continues for a predetermined time or more (step 240). When the control circuit 36 determines that the key lock state has continued for a predetermined time or longer, the predetermined information stored in the RAM 40 is transmitted to the designated destination stored in the RAM 40 (step 260). If the control circuit 36 determines that the key lock state has not continued for a predetermined time or longer, the state before step 140 is restored. Further, after the predetermined information stored in the RAM 40 is transmitted to the designated destination stored in the RAM 40, the predetermined information and the designated destination stored in the RAM 40 are deleted from the RAM 40 by the control circuit 36.

  As described above, the RAM 40 stores the predetermined information and the designation destination to which the information is transmitted in advance by the user, and the control circuit indicates that the key lock state in which the input by the input unit 44 is impossible continues for a predetermined time or more. When 36 determines, the information stored in the RAM 40 is transmitted by the control circuit 36 to the designated destination. Thereby, even if the cellular phone device 10 is lost or stolen, the predetermined information stored in the RAM 40 is automatically transmitted to the designated destination, so that the user can send the information sent to the designated destination. The contents of can be confirmed. As a result, it is possible to prevent the user from forgetting important information.

  In particular, since the predetermined information stored in the RAM 40 is deleted by the control circuit 36 after the predetermined information is transmitted to the designated destination, even if the mobile phone device 10 is in the hands of a third party other than the user. Even so, information such as personal information is not known to third parties. Thereby, security performance can be improved significantly.

  Further, by transmitting the current location information of the mobile phone device 10 as a part of the predetermined information, the current location of the mobile phone device 10 can be easily grasped, and the lost or stolen mobile phone device 10 can be identified. Can be easily discovered.

  The information transmitted to the designated destination is not limited to character information, and for example, a message message stored in the RAM 40 can be transmitted. That is, when the control circuit 36 determines that the key lock state has continued for a predetermined time or longer, the mobile phone device 10 automatically calls the telephone number of another telephone device stored in the RAM 40 in advance, and performs communication. After the start of the state, after a predetermined time has elapsed (for example, after the time when the greeting of the answering machine set for the communication partner's telephone ends), the antenna 16 and the communication unit 12 are connected from another mobile phone device or the like. The message message (voice information) stored in the RAM 40 may be transmitted via the communication unit 12 and the antenna 16. As a result, the transmitted message message can be recorded in the answering machine by the telephone device as the communication partner, and the user can easily listen to the message message even if the mobile phone device 10 is lost by listening to the answering message. Can know.
