In the portable device 1 according to the present invention, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, it is preferable that the lock mechanism 9 is provided. The lock mechanism 9 permits only one movement, such as sliding or rotating the first frame body 2 and the second frame body 3 in the closed state, and the movement of the lock mechanism 9 from the closed state to the state other than the closed state. It is to suppress the movement of the other of the 1st frame 2 and the 2nd frame 3 which were made. That is, the locking mechanism 9 slides the first frame body 2 and the second frame body 3 together, for example, so that the first frame body 2 and the second frame body 3 do not rotate when they are brought into a state other than the closed state. On the other hand, in the reverse case, the first frame body 2 and the second frame body 3 are rotated with each other so that the first frame body 2 and the second frame body 3 do not slide when the state is other than the closed state from the closed state. .

When the first cutout 91 and the other of the first side 31 and the rotating parts 21 and 22, for example, the first rotating part 21 and the first frame 2 and the second frame 3 are in the closed state, the first While allowing the slides of the frame 2 and the frame 2, and when the first frame 2 and the frame 2 is out of the closed state, in combination with the first cutout 91, the first frame 2 and the second frame 3 It is preferable that it is comprised by the 2nd notch part 92 which locks the rotation of.

The length and width protruding from the first frame body 2 surface of the rotating part 21, 22 are all formed with the same dimension as the thickness of the 2nd frame body 3, as shown to FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 3, and FIG. It is desirable to have. It is preferable that the rotating part 21, 22 tip part (protrusion tip part) is formed in semi-circle shape. It is preferable that the rotation shaft of the 2nd frame body 3, namely the guide frame body 51 with respect to the rotation parts 21 and 22 is near the center of the semicircle of a front-end | tip part. It is preferable that the dimension between the rotating shaft of the guide frame 51 and the slide surface 51c is formed with the dimension less than the width of the 2nd frame 3.

As shown in Figs. 1, 2, 3, and 8, the first side portion 31 of the second frame body 3 is the upper surface of the rotating parts 21, 22 and the first frame body 2, and substantially the slide surface of the guide frame body 51. It is formed in a substantially protruding shape so as to be coupled to an approximately groove portion formed in 51a. It is preferable that the width | variety of the front-end | tip part of the 1st side part 31 is formed in the dimension slightly shorter than the space | interval between the rotation parts 21 and 22. As shown in FIG. The first frame 31 is attached to the bracket 61 so as to contact the slide surface 51a of the guide frame body 51, so that the second frame body 3 is supported by the rotating portions 21 and 22 so as to be rotatable through the guide frame body 51. At this time, in the state where the first cutouts 91 and the second cutouts 92 are not provided, the second frame 3 is rotatable with respect to the first frame 2, but cannot slide.

The first notch 91 is formed by cutting one side portion of the first side portion 31, for example, the side portion of the second display portion 12 side over the entire longitudinal direction thereof. The first cutout 91 is one of the first side portions 31 so that the second frame 3 can slide relative to the first frame 2 when the first display portion 11 of the second frame 3 is positioned on the upper surface in the closed state. Although not limited thereto, for example, the first notch 91 may be provided on the other side of the first side 31 so that the second display portion 12 can slide when the second display portion 12 is positioned on the upper surface thereof. good. Further, the first cutouts 91 are provided on both sides of the first side 31 so as to be able to slide in both cases when the first display section 11 is located on the upper surface and when the second display section 12 is located on the upper surface. Also good.

The second cutout 92 is, for example, coupled to the distal end of the first cutout 91 and the first side 31 of the second frame 3 when viewed from the side of the second frame 3 and the first pivot 21 in a closed state. It is cut and formed to be possible. As a result, the second cutout 92 can slide to the first frame body 2 when the first frame body 2 and the second frame body 3 slide, and the first frame body 2 and the second frame body 3 slide out of the closed state. Even when the second frame 3 is to be rotated, the first side 31 of the second frame 3 contacts the first cutout 91 of the first pivot 21 to prevent the rotation.

The locking mechanism 9 is an inverting portion 95 for inverting the second frame body 3 with respect to the first frame body 2 when the rotational angle of the second frame body 3 with respect to the first frame body 2 becomes a predetermined angle, for example, 90 degrees. It is preferable to have 96. The inverting part may be, for example, a first inverting part 95 provided on the first side part 31 of the second frame body 3 and a second inverting part 96 provided on the rotating parts 21 and 22, for example, the second rotating part 22. It is preferable to be.

The first inverting portion 95 has both end faces 31a from one side portion to its end portion at approximately the center portion in the thickness direction of the second frame body 3 in both end faces 31a forming the tip end portion of the first side portion 31 of the second frame body 3. It is formed in a curved shape inward. The second inverting portion 96 cuts approximately parallel to the upper surface of the first frame body 2 at the tip portion (upper side) of the inner surface of the second rotating portion 22 (the surface on the side opposite to the first rotating portion 21) and at the same time. It is formed in a curved shape in the direction (opposite direction of the rotating parts 21 and 22). Accordingly, when the angle of rotation of the second frame 3 relative to the first frame 2 is 90 degrees, the first frame 95 and the second plate 96 are coupled so that the second frame 3 can be inverted with respect to the first frame 2. It is. When the first display unit 11 is inverted based on the closed state positioned on the upper surface, the second frame 3 is rotated 180 degrees in the right direction with respect to the first frame 2, and vice versa. When the inverting is performed based on the closed state located on the upper surface of 12, the first inverting portion 95 and the second inverting portion 96 are formed so as to be inverted by rotating the second frame 3 to the left relative to the first frame 2 by 180 degrees. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the first inverting portion 95 and the second inverting portion 96 are preferably formed along the inversion direction of the second frame body 3 relative to the first frame body 2.

In addition, the cover 19 is provided in the mobile device 1 according to the present invention. The cover 19 closes the receiving portion 55. As shown in Figs. 1 and 20, the cover 19 is, for example, a mounting portion 19a and a closing portion 19b. The mounting portion 19a is provided to be sandwiched between the first end surface 51d of the guide frame body 51 and the first pivoting portion 21. The through hole 19c in which the 1st rotation protrusion part 53a is inserted is provided in the center part of the mounting part 19a. The lower portion of the mounting portion 19a is inserted into the insertion hole 24 of the first frame body 2 so that the mounting portion 19a does not rotate with respect to the first pivot projection 53a. In the upper vicinity of the mounting portion 19a, a closing portion 19b extending from the surface thereof is provided. The closing portion 19b is formed in an arc shape so that the insertion hole 56 can be inserted and the insertion hole 56 can be moved along the circumferential direction thereof. The closing portion 19b is inserted into the insertion hole 56 and is formed to have a length reaching the rotational end portion 55a of the accommodation portion 55 to close the accommodation portion 55.

In Fig. 1, reference numeral 15 denotes wiring, and the wiring 15 is formed so as to electrically connect the first frame 2 and the second frame 3 even when the first frame 2 and the second frame 3 open and close.

Next, the operation of the mobile device according to the present invention will be described.

In the normal state in which the mobile device 1 is not used, the first frame 2 and the second frame 3 overlap each other (see Fig. 3 (a)). On the upper surface of the second frame 3, a surface on which the first display portion 11 and the button 13 are provided is located. In the closed state, the engaging projection 46 of the carrier 45 engages with the first engaging recess 47a of the slide cover 42b and remains locked, while the first cam 73 of the projecting unit 57 is connected to the second pivoting recess 52b. Since the first frame body 2 and the second frame body 3 are securely held in the closed state because they are held in the locked state by engaging.

When the mobile device 1 is normally used, the second frame 3 is slid relative to the first frame 2 to expose the keyboard portion 2a on the upper surface of the first frame 2, and in an open state (also referred to as a first open state). (See Fig. 3 (b)). At that time, the engaging projection 46 of the carrier 45 engages with the second engaging recess 47b of the slide cover 42b and remains locked. Moreover, when the 2nd frame 3 slides with respect to the 1st frame 2, the slider 43 will move along the guide groove 41. As shown in FIG. At this time, the first side part 31 of the second frame body 3 slides in the vicinity of the second cutout part 92, so that the second frame body 3 is rotated with respect to the first frame body 2 when it is not in the closed state. The one side portion 31 comes in contact with the first cutout portion 91 of the first rotating portion 21, and its rotation is prevented. Therefore, in the first open state, it is possible to stably use the mobile device 1 by using the first display portion 11 as its length.

In this way, when the opening and closing operation is performed by sliding the second frame 3 with respect to the first frame 2, the engaging projection 46 slides while contacting the surface of the slide cover 42b. The second frame 3 stops at that position by the frictional force caused by the contact of the protrusions 46. That is, when sliding the 2nd frame 3 with respect to the 1st frame 2, if a slide is stopped in the middle of the slide, it is possible to stop the 2nd frame 3 at the position.

In the closed state, the rotational angle at which the keyboard portion 2a on the upper surface of the first frame 2 is closed by the second frame 3 is 0 degrees. When the display portion of the mobile device 1 in the closed state is used as the horizontal, for example, when the second display portion 12 is used as the horizontal, the second frame 3 is rotated in a direction away from the first frame 2 with respect to the first frame 2. (Open). Accordingly, when the rotational angle is 150 degrees, the cam projection 76 is inserted into the cam recess groove 77 to be held in the locked state and is in the second open state (see Fig. 3 (c)). At this time, since the 1st side part 31 of the 2nd frame 3 is inserted between the rotation parts 21 and 22, the slide and inversion of the 2nd frame 3 with respect to the 1st frame 2 are suppressed. Therefore, in the second open state, it is possible to stably use the mobile device 1 by using the second display portion 12 as the horizontal length.

Thus, when the opening and closing operation is performed by rotating the first frame 2 and the second frame 3 to each other, the cam protrusion 76 is disengaged from the cam recess 77 and is in sliding contact with a contact surface on the plane other than the cam recess 77 of the second cam 74. Therefore, when the rotation of the second frame 3 is stopped, the second frame 3 stops at the position due to the frictional force caused by the contact of the cam projection 76. That is, if the rotation angle is the free stop angle, it is possible to stop the second frame 3 at that angle.

In addition, when watching a moving picture using the second display unit 12 or using the touch panel function, the second frame 3 is rotated with respect to the first frame 2 so that the rotation angle is 90 degrees (see Fig. 3 (d)). . After the rotation, since the first inverting portion 95 and the second inverting portion 96 face each other, if a force is applied around the axis of the shaft 48, that is, in a direction inverting the second frame 3 with respect to the first frame 2, The first inverting portion 95 and the second inverting portion 96 are coupled to each other, and the second frame body 3 rotates 180 degrees in a right turn with respect to the first frame body 2 (see FIGS. 3 (e) and (f)). After the inversion, the second frame 3 is rotated (closed) with respect to the first frame 2 so that the rotation angle is 0 degrees (see Fig. 3 (g)). Thereby, while the keyboard part 2a etc. of the upper surface of the 1st frame 2 are closed by the 2nd frame 3, the surface which has the 2nd display part 12 is located in the upper surface of the 2nd frame 3. As a result, the second display 12 having a large screen can view a moving picture or use a touch panel function, which is also in a closed state, so that the frames 2 and 3 do not become obstructive.

In the closed state in which the second display portion 12 is located on the upper surface, the first cutout portion 91 is not provided on the other side of the first side portion 31 even if the second display portion 12 is to slide. It cannot slide in contact with eastern 21. Therefore, in the closed state, the first frame body 2 and the second frame body 3 do not deviate from each other in the direction of the surface thereof. Thus, when the moving picture is viewed or the touch panel function is used, it can be performed stably.

Further, after the second frame 3 is rotated 180 degrees around the shaft 48 axis and inverted (see FIGS. 3 (e) and (f)), the second frame 3 is rotated 150 degrees with respect to the first frame 2. It rotates (opens) (refer FIG. 3 (h)). Accordingly, it is possible to stably use the portable device 1 by using the first display portion 11 as the horizontal length.

Therefore, the portable device 1 according to the present invention can not only perform a slide operation and a rotation operation but also form a closed state by superimposing the second frame body 3 on the first frame body 2 in an inverted state.

Since the protruding portion 57 is inserted into the unit receiving portion 51f of the second end surface 51e of the guide frame 51 via a force acting means, for example, a spring 79, the first cam 73 which is the second rotating protrusion 53b Since it is pressurized so that it may engage with the fluctuation | grooving groove part 52b, it becomes possible to reliably rotate the 2nd frame body with respect to the 1st frame body 2. As shown in FIG.
