1. A mobile terminal for performing an entry function and a search function using a multi-entry unit, comprising:
- the multi-entry unit including;
a light-emitting sheet having a variety of colors, and being illuminated with designated colors according to character categories during a touch-entry mode for a key entry function;
a sense pad for detecting a key entry signal during the touch-entry mode, and detecting a selection signal generated by rotation during the wheel mode;
a transparent ground sheet for separating the sense pad from the light-emitting sheet; and
an injection material in which characters displayed during the touch-entry mode are differently formed according to their categories, and the characters are illuminated with their unique colors through the light-emitting sheet so that desired characters are displayed.

Abstract
A radiation module capable of resisting reverse flow of hot fluid includes a fan, a radiator and a retaining tool. The fan provides an inlet and an outlet. The radiator is connected to the outlet of the fan. The retaining tool secures the radiator to a heat generation part. At least a baffle is provided in the radiation module. The fluid enters the fan via the inlet and flows toward the radiator via the outlet to cool the heat-generating component and the hot fluid moving outward the radiator is resisted entering the inlet with the baffle part so as to enhance heat dissipation efficiency.

8. A method for performing an entry function and a search function using a multi-entry unit for use in a mobile terminal, the multi-entry unit comprising a plurality of touch-entry keys, the method comprising the steps of:
-
a) determining whether a predetermined time elapses when a first input signal occurred in the multi-entry unit is detected; b) switching a current mode of the multi-entry unit to a touch-entry mode for detecting a key entry signal, when a second input signal occurred in the multi-entry unit is detected before the predetermined time elapses; and c) switching a current mode to a wheel entry mode for detecting a selection signal generated by rotation of the multi-entry unit when the second input signal is not detected after the lapse of the predetermined time. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A method for performing an entry function and a search function using a multi-entry unit for use in a mobile terminal, the multi-entry unit comprising a plurality of touch-entry keys, the method comprising the steps of:
-
a) switching a current mode of the multi-entry unit to a touch-entry mode for detecting a key entry signal generated by the multi-entry unit, during a standby mode and an entry mode, and displaying character data in the touch-entry mode; and b) switching a current mode of the multi-entry unit to a wheel mode for detecting a selection signal generated by rotation of the multi-entry unit, during a search mode. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16)
