  • Patent number: 9223339
    Abstract: A portable terminal is provided. The portable terminal includes a mounting member configured to be capable of being attached to/detached from a housing of the portable terminal, a connection member configured to extend from the mounting member and to selectively enclose at least a part of the housing, and a cover element connected to an end of the connection member to open/close a display device installed on the front surface of the housing. The portable terminal provided with the protection cover has an advantage in that the increase of the thickness of the terminal can be minimized because the protection cover may be disposed on a side surface or an edge of the rear surface of the housing by the mounting member.
