Abstract: A display panel manufacturing apparatus and a display panel manufacturing method are provided. A display panel manufacturing apparatus manufactures a display panel which is on a lower stage and includes light emitting elements. The display panel manufacturing apparatus includes: a power supply for supplying an alignment voltage for aligning the light emitting elements on the display panel; and an upper stage including a probe unit to provide the alignment voltage to the display panel and magnetic sensors to sense an alignment state of the light emitting elements.

Abstract: Disclosed is a display tilting mechanism for a communication terminal, in which a display is rotatably connected to a supporter hingedly pivoting on a main body of the communication terminal. The mechanism includes a fixing unit fixedly installed in the supporter. A rotating unit is connected with the display and rotatably installed relative to the fixing unit. A supporting unit is connected with the fixing unit in such a way that the rotating unit is not released when it rotates on the fixing unit. A retaining unit is provided for holding the rotating unit in place at the initial state and rotated state thereof when rotated on the fixing unit. Thus, when watching a movie or the like, the image can be display in a normal orientation.

Abstract: Disclosed hinge assemblies and portable terminals having the same. According to a first embodiment of the present invention, a hinge assembly, a first member is fixed to a side of one article so as to support the one article to horizontally rotate with respect to the other article. A second member is fixed to a side of the other article and engaged with the first member in order to support the other article so that the one article can rotate with respect to the other article. A third member provides the second member with elasticity in order for the first member is tightly engaged with the second member.
