Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes an LCD device having at least one flexible portion, a main body having the front, rear, right and left sides, and a coupling member for coupling the LCD device to the main body. The LCD device have a screen size more than twice the total upper surface of the main body, and thus completely wrap the upper surface, the front side, and the bottom surface of the main body. The front side of the main body is rounded to allow the LCD device to bend without a sharp 90.degree. angle, which would be stressful to the bent portion. The LCD device includes a liquid crystal cell, a reinforcement plate disposed on the liquid crystal cell, and at least two strip-shaped recesses formed by removing portions of the reinforcement plate in said at least one flexible portion.

Abstract: A structurally improved rail-type device for mechanically splicing optical fibers while reducing the splicing loss is disclosed. The above splicing device not only has a cladding clamp with a seesaw structure thereby easily splicing the optical fibers, it also separately moves the covers relative to the body to easily perform the tuning operation. Due to coating clamp's protrusions and body's slots engaging with each other, the coating clamp exclusively vertically move relative to the body and prevent the optical fibers from being axially thrust. The splicing device further seperately clamps the coating and cladding parts of the optical fibers, thereby preventing the spliced fibers from breaking due to tensile or torsional force. The sliding motion of the covers relative to the body is achieved by the rails of the covers and rail grooves of the body.
