Abstract: A mobile device includes a first housing, a second housing, a bias member, a first stopper and a second stopper. The second housing is slidably coupled to the first housing in a sliding range. The bias member biases the second housing from a middle position of the sliding range to one end of the sliding range. The first stopper is provided on the first housing, is connected to a ground of the first housing, and has electrical conductivity. The second stopper is provided on the second housing, has electrical conductivity, and comes into contact with the first stopper to define the one end of the sliding range.

Abstract: A mobile terminal device including a first housing, a second housing, the device having multiple configurations, including a first configuration in which the second housing is closed with respect to the first housing, a second configuration in which the second housing is slid relative to the first housing from the first configuration, and a third configuration in which the first housing is separated from the second housing, and a first input key is provided on the first housing, and is covered with the second housing in the first and second configurations and is exposed in the third configuration.

Abstract: A mobile device includes a trigger having a rod-like body fixed at one end. A housing has a first hole into which the body is inserted. A sensor detects that the trigger has been operated in the direction in which the body is pulled from the hole. A buzzer is activated in response to the sensor's having detected the operation of the trigger. A second hole is formed in a firmly fitted member. The body is inserted in the second hole so as to be freely slid forward or backward against the hole. The fitted member is fitted firmly in the entrance portion of the first hole; and a sealing member contacts the internal wall of the first hole and the body.

Abstract: A mobile device includes a trigger having a molded component defining the outer shape of the mobile device, and a rod-like body fixed to the molded component at one end. A housing has a hole into which the rod-like body is inserted. Guide walls guide movement of the rod-like body in the direction in which the rod-like body is inserted into or pulled from the hole. A sensor detects that the trigger has been operated in the direction in which the rod-like body is pulled from the hole. An alarm device is activated in response to detection of the operation of the trigger by the sensor. The trigger has sheet-metal members fixed to the molded component and guided by the guide walls by their being moved in contact with the guide walls in the direction in which the rod-like body is inserted or pulled.

Abstract: A mobile device having a housing and operating on power supplied from the battery loaded in the battery chamber including: a pair of walls of the housing having hook receiving portions formed a groove; a battery lid covering the battery chamber so as to be freely detached; a pair of positioning hooks serving to position the battery lid by entering the grooves of the corresponding hook receiving portions; overhanging edges serving to regulate position of the cover lid; and a waterproof gasket fixed to the battery chamber side of the cover lid so as to be in contact with all sides of the battery chamber.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus has a fixed case unit and a movable case unit, and the rotation operability of the movable case unit is improved. The electronic apparatus having the fixed case unit and movable case unit also includes a movable arm, which is fitted openably and closably to the fixed case unit via a hinge. The movable case unit is supported rotatably on the movable arm, and the rotation center of the movable case unit is set at a position near the hinge to be on or near the centerline of the movable case unit.

Abstract: In a cellular phone, a light guiding plate, which linearly guides light emitted by a plurality of light emitting elements (LEDs), and an LED display unit, which displays predetermined LED displays, are laminatedly arranged in a movable-side housing. A slit formed in the substantially central portion of the light guiding plate partitions the light guiding plate into a first light guiding region and a second light guiding region. A first light emitting group of the light emitting elements emits light to the first light guiding region and a second light emitting group of the light emitting elements emits light to the second light guiding region. The first light guiding region and the second light guiding region are illuminated alternately by alternately switching ON the first light emitting group and the second light emitting group.

Abstract: A flexible cable establishes an electric connection between a stationary-side housing and a movable-side housing. The flexible cable is integratedly fabricated with two gasket seals that maintain the inside of the stationary-side housing and the movable-side housing, respectively, in a waterproof condition. A reinforcing plate is laid inside a housing of a movable-side front case to prevent a driver circuit board of a LCD module from getting damaged.

Abstract: A mobile device includes a housing in which an opening is defined, a lid freely uncovering or covering the opening. The lid has a body plate that defines part of the outer shape of the mobile device. The lid has a fitting projection projecting from the opening side face of the body plate and fitting into the opening. The lid has a groove formed all the way along a periphery so that a waterproof O-ring is disposed. The O-ring prevents entry of water into the opening by being fitted in the groove so as to be in contact with an internal wall face of the opening. The projection has a plurality of pressing ribs that are separately disposed along the groove so as to project in the inward direction of the groove at least in a portion opposite the rotation shaft and so as to narrow the groove.
