The first friction washer 25, the second friction washer 26, the third friction washer 27, and the first cam member 31 are provided with a plurality of grease reservoirs 25c, 26c, 27b, and 31d, respectively.

  Next, the effects of the opening / closing device B according to the first embodiment of the present invention and the information device A using the opening / closing device B will be described.

  First, as shown in FIG. 1, in the closed state in which the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 overlap each other, the slide mechanism 5 has a structure as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. The guide pins 8a and 8a are located at the positions of the cushion members 3d and 3d attached to the rear end side a and a of the guide grooves 6a and 6a of the guide rail members 6 and 6 together with the slide plate 9. The elastic members 11b, 11b,... Constituting a plurality of elastic means 11a, 11a are in a contracted state, and each of the first cam member 31 and the second cam member 32 of the suction mechanism 18 is in a contracted state. The first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are kept closed by the suction operation of the first cam portion 31b and the second cam portion 32b.

  From this state, when the second casing 2 is pushed backward with respect to the first casing 1 to use the information device A, the second casing 2 is biased by the urging means 11 and 11 of the slide mechanisms 5 and 5. The elastic members 11b, 11b,... Of the elastic members 11a, 11a encounter resistance when they are extended, but the upper surface of the first housing 1 is exposed while sliding with respect to the first housing 1. . This state is shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. At this time, the elastic members 11b, 11b... Composed of the tension springs of the urging means 11, 11 are in a substantially horizontal state and are pulled to the maximum. Further, the guide pins 8 a, 8 b, 8 a, 8 b are located in the middle part of the guide rail members 6, 6. The slide plate 9 is also in the middle of the guide rail members 6 and 6 as shown in FIG. When the second casing 2 is further pushed backward from this state, the second casing 2 receives the force in the direction in which the tension springs of the elastic members 11b, 11b... One casing 1 is slid and automatically opened. This automatic opening operation is stopped when the guide pins 8b and 8b come into contact with the cushion members 3e and 3e provided in the end portions b and b of the guide grooves 6a and 6a of the guide rail members 6 and 6, respectively. FIG. 2 and FIG. 9 show this state, and the slide plate 9 at that time is also located at the end portions b and b of the guide grooves 6a and 6a. In this way, the keyboard portion 1a of the first housing 1 is exposed to the outside and becomes operable.

  Although the information device can be operated even in such a state, in order to make the screen of the display unit 2a of the second housing 2 easier to see, the first housing 1 side is pressed with one hand and the other hand is used. When the rear end side of the second housing 2 that has been slid rearward is caused, the tilt hinge mechanism 7 operates and the support member 16 rotates upward with respect to the mounting member 14 with the hinge shaft 15 as a fulcrum. Initially, the resistance between the first cam portion 31 b and the second cam portion 32 b of the suction mechanism 18 is encountered, but the second housing 2 rises with respect to the first housing 1. This rising operation is stopped when the stopper piece 16e provided on the support member 16 contacts the edge of the side plate 14b of the mounting member 14. In this case, the raising angle is 60 degrees. When it is near the end of the triggering operation, the first cam member 31b and the second cam member 32b of the suction mechanism 18 cause a suction operation, and the second housing 2 is automatically And can be stably stopped at a predetermined inclination angle (60 degrees).

  When the use of the information device A is finished, when the first housing 1 side is pressed with one hand and the second housing 2 is pushed downward with the other hand, the resistance by the suction mechanism 18 is first encountered. Since the second housing 2 falls downward and becomes the same horizontal state as the first housing 1, when the rear part of the second housing 2 is pushed forward, the second housing 2 is moved forward by the slide mechanisms 5 and 5. It returns to the original position by the reverse movement. At that time, since the urging means 11 and 11 of the slide mechanism 5 are extended to the maximum and then contracted, the second casing 2 slides relative to the first casing 1 from a predetermined closed state. It is automatically closed.

  It should be noted that a mechanism that prevents the tilt hinge mechanism 7 from operating unless the backward sliding operation of the second casing 2 with respect to the first casing 1 is completed, or a sliding mechanism that is in a state where the first casing 1 is raised. It is recommended to add a mechanism that prevents 5 from working. For example, when the second casing 2 slides with respect to the first casing 1, these mechanisms lock the tilt hinge mechanism 7 so as not to operate, or when the second casing 2 is raised, the slide This mechanism prevents the mechanism 5 from operating.

  22 to 31 show another embodiment of an information device opening / closing device according to the present invention and an information device using the opening / closing device.
