Abstract: Various embodiments disclose an electronic device comprising a housing, said housing comprising: at least one metallic material portion; and a synthetic resin material portion, said synthetic resin material comprising a sealing resin, the synthetic resin material portion joined and injection molded to at least a part of the at least one metallic material portion, wherein the sealing resin is disposed at at least a portion of a joint between the metallic material portion and the synthetic resin material portion.

Abstract: A portable terminal having a hinge apparatus is provided. The portable terminal includes a first housing, a second housing pivotally coupled to the first housing so that the second housing can be unfolded from and folded onto the first housing, and a hinge apparatus coupling the first housing and the second housing together. The hinge apparatus provides a first hinge axis and a second hinge axis perpendicular to each other, in which, from the folded state in which the second housing is folded on the first housing, the second housing is operable to rotate about the first hinge axis to be located in an upper side of the first housing and to rotate about the second hinge axis to be located in a first side of the first housing.

Abstract: A portable digital communication apparatus having an improved grip comprising a body housing extending along a longitudinal direction and a grip portion adapted to slide a predetermined distance in a direction away from an end of the body housing for an improved grip. The grip portion is slid during a photographing mode to provide a user with an improved grip.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a rotation-stop mechanism for a folder of a portable wireless terminal. The rotation-stop mechanism enables the folder to be opened away from the terminal body at various angles, according to the user's need, while smoothly maintaining the opening and closing operation of the folder. The rotation-stop mechanism can stop the rotation of the folder in a state wherein the folder is opened away from the terminal body at an angle of or about 90°, according to the user's need, while allowing the folder to be smoothly opened away from or closed to the terminal body. Further, the folder can be freely opened away from the terminal body at angles of at or about 90° or at or about 150°. Furthermore, in the case of the portable wireless terminal installed with a camera lens, since the folder can be firmly fixed when it is opened away from the terminal body at an angle of or about 90°, the portable wireless terminal is advantageous for stable image capturing and video communications.

Abstract: A portable communication apparatus having a triple-axis hinge folder includes a main housing having an opening, a folder; and a first hinge device. The first hinge device is adapted to rotate about the first hinge axis for unfolding and folding the folder from the main housing. A second hinge device is integral with the first hinge device and is adapted to rotate the folder about the second hinge axis, which is parallel to the first hinge axis, while being received in the opening. A slave housing extends from the first and second hinge devices and is adapted to rotate about the second hinge axis together with the folder while being received in the opening.
