Abstract

Mobile phones are provided. A mobile phone, switchable between a standard mode and a vibration mode, includes a main body and a movable anti-slip member. The anti-slip member connects to the main body and is movable between a first position and a second position. When the mobile phone is in standard mode, the anti-slip member is situated in the first position and hidden in the main body. When the mobile phone is switched from standard mode to vibration mode, the anti-slip member moves from the first position to the second position and protrudes from the main body.

Claims

1. A mobile phone, switchable between a standard mode and a vibration mode, comprising:

a main body; and

an anti-slip member, connected to the main body and movable between a first position and a second position, wherein the anti-slip member is in the first position when the mobile phone is in the standard mode, and the anti-slip member is in the second position protruding from the main body when the mobile phone is in the vibration mode.

2. The mobile phone as claimed in claim 1, wherein the main body comprises a housing and an electromagnet disposed therein, and the anti-slip member comprises a permanent magnet and a frictional pad connected thereto, the electromagnet applying a repulsive force on the permanent magnet, compelling the anti-slip member to move from the first position to the second position to protrude from an outer surface of the main body when the mobile phone is switched from the standard mode to the vibration mode.

3. The mobile phone as claimed in claim 2, wherein the electromagnet applies an attractive force on the permanent magnet, compelling the anti-slip member to move from the second position to the first position when the mobile phone is switched from the vibration mode to the standard mode.

4. The mobile phone as claimed in claim 2, wherein the housing comprises an opening, through which the frictional pad moves to protrude from the outer surface when the anti-slip member moves from the first position to the second position.

5. The mobile phone as claimed in claim 4, wherein the mobile phone comprises a plurality of anti-slip members, and the housing comprises a plurality of openings corresponding to the anti-slip members.

6. The mobile phone as claimed in claim 2, wherein the frictional pad comprises rubber material.

7. The mobile phone as claimed in claim 2, wherein the main body further comprises a rail, and the anti-slip member further comprises a sliding portion moving along the rail when the anti-slip member moves between the first and second positions.

8. The mobile phone as claimed in claim 7, wherein the sliding portion is connected to the permanent magnet.

9. The mobile phone as claimed in claim 7, wherein the sliding portion comprises plastic material.

10. The mobile phone as claimed in claim 1, wherein the main body comprises a housing and a motor connecting the anti-slip member, and the motor drives the anti-slip member between the first and second positions.
