Abstract: To attain a slide mechanism of a portable terminal device which, having a minimal number of parts and keeping the same function as that of a conventional one, enables a substantial production cost reduction, a mechanism relatively slides a first casing and a second casing in a state that the casings are laid over each other in a vertical direction, and is constituted with: a slide case mounted on either one of the first casing and the second casing; a slider slidably accommodated in the slide case and mounted on the other one of the first casing and the second casing; and a resilient means resiliently disposed between the slider and the slide case. The slide case is formed as an integral structure with a guide groove which extends to both ends in a longitudinal direction with the one end thereof being opened. Additionally the slider has a shape which enables the slider to be inserted into the guide groove in an engaged state from the open end side.

Abstract: A mechanism for sliding relatively in the longitudinal direction the first case and the second case in their superposed state in order to provide a sliding mechanism for mobile terminals that can be produced at a low cost wherein the use of a single sliding module is sufficient, the total length of this sliding module can be shortened to avoid its exposure from the case during use, the locking plate and the sliding cover that constitute the sliding case of the sliding module are not welded but are simply engaged so that the entire construction of the sliding mechanism may be simplified.

Abstract: A hinge device of a portable terminal connects a keyboard member to a comparatively massive display member and has cam and friction mechanisms. The cam mechanism has a fixing cam for axially receiving a shaft which extends into a cam case having a rotation arresting mechanism fixed on the shaft, a slider cam provided slidably in a manner to confront the fixing cam restrained in its rotation by the cam case, and an elastic mechanism for pressing the slider cam toward the fixing cam. The friction mechanism has a friction ring attached to the shaft and fitted into the friction case under pressure with a rotatable rotation arresting mechanism, so that both of automatic close lock function from a predetermined closed angle between the first and second members and a free stop function when opening and closing operation of the first and second members can be realized together without strain.

Abstract: A hinge device of a portable intelligence terminal, which connects a first member having a keyboard and a second member composed of a comparatively massive display device in an openable and closable manner as well as possible includes a cam mechanism and a friction mechanism coaxially on a shaft.
