Abstract

A portable wireless control apparatus, which is developed and suitable for all cellular phones or PDA (personal digital assistant). The apparatus of the invention can adjust its clamping arms to clamp different cellular phone or PDA. The arms of the apparatus can be drawn in when it is not used, which is convenient in being carried with user.

Claims

1. A portable wireless control apparatus, comprising a transmitter and a receiver, wherein the transmitter comprises:

a left-rotatory clamping arm with at least one direction control key;

a right-rotatory clamping arm with a plurality of function keys;

a base with the left-rotatory clamping arm locating in the left, and the right-rotatory clamping arm locating in the right;

a wireless circuitry module, which transmits a control signal via wireless mode;

and, the receiver comprises;

a driving program, which makes the receiver automatically receive the control signal from the wireless circuitry module; and

a communication apparatus loading the driving program, which operates with its internal program in response to the control signal;

wherein the communication apparatus loads the driving program, and the left-rotatory and right-rotatory clamping arms can adjust to clamp the communication apparatus in response to shape of the communication apparatus, and when the driving program starts, it automatically detects the connection status, moreover, the function keys can be set according to personal like.

2. the apparatus of claim 1, wherein the controllable directions are up, upper left, upper right, down, down left, down right, left, and right.

3. the apparatus of claim 1, wherein the left-rotatory clamping arm comprises a left key or an adjustable spacer.

4. the apparatus of claim 1, wherein the left-rotatory clamping arm can be in shape of waterdrop like, rectangle, or ellipse.

5. the apparatus of claim 1, wherein the right-rotatory clamping arm can comprises a power indicator light indicating user whether the power enough or not, a power switch, a right key, or an adjustable spacer.

6. the apparatus of claim 1, wherein the right-rotatory clamping arm can be in shape of waterdrop like, rectangle, or ellipse.

7. the apparatus of claim 1, wherein the base can be in shape of cambered rectangle, rectangle, or ellipse.

8. the apparatus of claim 1, wherein the base further comprises a buffer mechanism and a stop mechanism buffing the left-rotatory or right-rotatory clamping arm when it rotates too fast, and fixing the left-rotatory and right-rotatory clamping arms.

9. the apparatus of claim 1, wherein the wireless circuitry module can be a Bluetooth module, a infrared ray module, or IEEE 802.11b.

10. the apparatus of claim 1, wherein the communication apparatus can be an intelligent cellular phone or a PDA.
