  • Patent number: 10347965
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an electronic apparatus having an antenna unit at a body chassis. The electronic apparatus includes: a body chassis; an antenna supporting member disposed in an antenna space at a periphery of the body chassis, and having an upper face on which an antenna pattern is formed, the antenna space being surrounded with a dielectric cover; a shield wall for the antenna space, including a conductive thin film covering an entire lateral face of the antenna supporting member close to a center of the body chassis, an upper antenna ground element connected to the conductive thin film and the rear face of a keyboard cover member, and a lower antenna ground element connected to the conductive thin film and the rear face of a bottom-face cover member. The conductive thin film, the upper antenna ground element and the lower antenna ground element define the shield wall.

  • Patent number: 10181662
    Abstract: A cable connection method is provided. In a cable connection structure, a connection agent in which fine solder particle are densely scattered in a thermosetting resin-based adhesive is interposed between a connection portion of a flexible printed cable (FPC) cable in which a shield layer is formed on one surface side of a signal layer and a connection portion on a substrate side. Then, the connection portion of the FPC cable and the connection portion on the substrate side are solder connected by heating. A shield layer corresponding to the connection portion of the FPC cable and/or a region portion up to a position separated from the base end side of the connection portion of the FPC cable by a predetermined length is configured with a conductive mesh structure body. The other region of the shield layer contains a conductive flat plate structure.
