10 claims

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A mobile telephone, comprising: a main body defining a cavity; a fixing element removably mounted on the main body, the fixing element defining a hole; a light source received in the cavity; and an optical element directly connected to the fixing element by being inserted into the hole of the fixing element on the main body and located at a pathway of the light source, whereby light emitted from the light source being converged by the optical element.

2

2. The mobile telephone of claim 1 , wherein the optical element is a collimating lens.

3

3. The mobile telephone of claim 1 , wherein the optical element comprises a light input surface, a light output surface opposite to the light input surface, and a side surface positioned between and connected to the light input surface and the light output surface, the light input surface comprising a convex surface facing the light source and protruding towards the light source, the light output surface being a planar surface, and the side surface being a total reflective face.

4

4. The mobile telephone of claim 1 , wherein a central axis of the light source is coaxial to that of the optical element.

5

5. The mobile telephone of claim 1 , wherein the fixing element comprises a fixing part and two clip parts located at two ends of the fixing part, and the two clip parts being respectively clasped with two edges of the main body.

6

6. The mobile telephone of claim 5 , wherein the fixing part and the two clip parts are integrally formed with one piece.

7

7. The mobile telephone of claim 5 , wherein the two clip parts are elastic.

8

8. A mobile telephone, comprising: a main body defining a cavity; a light source received in the cavity; a fixing element removably mounted on the main body, the fixing element defining a hole; and a collimating lens directly connected to the fixing element by being inserted into the hole of the fixing element and located at a pathway of the light source via the fixing element, whereby light emitted from the light source being converged by the collimating lens.

9

9. The mobile telephone of claim 8 , wherein the collimating lens comprises a light input surface, a light output surface opposite to the light input surface, and a side surface positioned between and connected to the light input surface and the light output surface, the light input surface comprising a convex surface facing the light source and protruding towards the light source, the light output surface being a planar surface, and the side surface being a total reflective face.

10

10. The mobile telephone of claim 8 , wherein the fixing element comprises a fixing part and two clip parts located at two ends of the fixing part, and the two clip parts being respectively clasped with two edges of the main body.
