DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
(17) The drawings and reference symbols are incorporated hereafter to further illustrate the embodiments of the present invention so that the present invention can be implemented by a person skilled in the art.
(18)
(19)
(20) Each of the housing structures of the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 will be described hereafter in details.
(21)
(22)
(23) In an embodiment of the present invention, the light flash control button 3019 can control the central light 105, the left turn signal 101 or the right turn signal 103 to flash (The light flash control button 3019 is pressed once to flash the left turn signal 101 and the right turn signal 103. When the light flash control button 3019 is pressed one more time, the central light 105 displays the maximum brightness while the left turn signal 101 and the right turn signal 103 flash. When the light flash control button 3019 is pressed another time, the central light 105 is turned off but the left turn signal 101 and the right turn signal 103 keep flashing. When the light flash control button 3019 is pressed further one more time, all the signals are turned off. The above-mentioned cycle can be repeated). The central light brightness control button 3021 can control the brightness of the central light 105, and the power switch 3025 can turn on the power of the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1. Before the power switch 3025 is turned on, the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 is required to relieve the lock of the power module of the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 through the safety switch module 207. In other words, to turn on the power of the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1, the lock of the safety switch module 207 to the power module must first be relieved, so that the power of the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 can be turned on by the power switch 3025.
(24) After the power module is switched on by the power switch 3025, an LED light 3027 disposed on the top housing structure 30 is lit. If the power module is to be turned off, the power switch 3025 must be pressed and held for two seconds, and the LED light 3027 lights out after the power is off. The anti-theft switch 3023 allows the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 to enter an anti-theft mode. When the anti-theft operation is to be activated, the anti-theft switch 3023 is pressed once in the power-on state, and then the following buttons are pressed sequentially: (1) the power switch 3025; (2) the central light brightness control button 3021; (3) the light flash control button 3019 (the sequence can be alternated or a same button can be pressed for three times). Subsequently, the anti-theft switch 3023 is pressed once more, and a long beeping sound (produced by an alarming horn, not shown) is provided, which indicates that all of the current operating states are put on-hold and the anti-theft state (the LED light 3027 flashes every 5 seconds) is activated. When the anti-theft state is to be deactivated, the anti-theft switch 3023 is pressed, and then the input codes for activation ((1) the power switch 3025; (2) the central light brightness control button 3021; (3) the light flash control button 3019, the sequence can be alternated or a same button can be pressed for three times) are entered. Next, the anti-theft switch 3023 is pressed one more time, so that the anti-theft state is deactivated when two beeping sounds are heard. At this time, the LED light 3027 remains lit and restores to the previous state of use. If an error occurs, three beeping sounds will be heard to signal errors. If error successively occurs for three times, an alarm of 15 seconds will be sounded (by an alarming horn, not shown). If a set password cannot be recalled, the anti-theft state has to be deactivated (two beeping sounds will be heard) by the safety switch module 207.
(25) Besides, in an embodiment of the present invention, the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 may further comprise a USB slot (not shown) and a memory card slot (not shown). The USB slot and the memory card slot may be disposed on the rear housing structure 20. In other embodiments, the USB slot and the memory card slot may be disposed on other housing structures, and the USB slot and the memory card slot are electrically connected to the processor (not shown). Furthermore, the USB slot and an USB device can be connected to each other, or the memory card slot and a memory card can be connected to each other, such that the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 allows the speaker module to function as a MP3 music player device through the processing of the processor. Whereas, the forward/volume up button 3011 can control the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 to play the next song/increase the volume (holding down to increase volume). The paly/pause button 3013 can control the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 to play/pause the music. In addition, the backward/volume down button 3015 can control the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 to play the previous song/decrease the volume (holding down to decrease volume). Furthermore, the USB slot and a charging device (such as a mobile power pack) are connected to each other such that the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 is charged.
(26) On the other hand, in another embodiment of the present invention, the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 may further comprise an antenna (not shown). The antenna is electrically connected to the processor and may be disposed inside or outside of the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1. The speaker module receives an amplitude modulation (AM) or frequency modulation (FM) signal via the control of the antenna, the processor and the control module 301 such that the speaker module functions as a radio. When the speaker module functions as a radio, similarly, the forward/volume up button 3011 can control the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 to go forward to the next radio station/increase the volume (holding down to increase volume). The paly/pause button 3013 can control the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 to be mute or to search and store radio station channels (holding down for 2 seconds to perform searching and storing of radio stations channels). The backward/volume down button 3015 can control the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 to go back to the previous radio station/decrease the volume (holding down to decrease volume). The MP3/radio switch button 3017 allows the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 to be switched between a MP3 music player device and a radio.
(27) In addition, in an embodiment of the present invention, the power switch 3025 may include signals in two colors, such as a blue signal and a red signal. The states of the blue signal stand for the followings: A. remains lit: representing the power is on; B. flashes every 5 second: representing an anti-theft mode; C. flashes: representing a pause; and, D. irregular: representing a search for FM radio stations. The states of the red signal stand for the followings: A. remains lit: representing a state on charging; and, B. flashes: representing the battery is low and charging is required.
(28) Further, in an embodiment of the present invention, the top housing structure 30 of the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1 may further comprise a solar panel 303. The solar panel 303 is electrically connected to the processor and the power module, which are located inside the detachable multimedia control apparatus 1, to supply power to the power module. One must understand that, in another embodiment of the present invention, the control module 301 is integrated into a touch screen, and the solar panel 303 is adjusted to be hung externally to prevent the problem of insufficient disposing space.
