Further, according to the conception, the screen is a touch-type screen, and is used by touching with a finger or touching with a pen, such as a plastic pen.

[0013]

[Action]

 As described above, the notebook computer having the rotating screen according to the present invention can effectively fix the screen by the above-described means, and can completely turn the screen to another surface. In addition to convenient use, the touch of the screen can be controlled with a pen or finger, so that the convenience of operation is further improved.

[0014]

[Preferred Embodiment of Invention]

 Hereinafter, an embodiment of a notebook computer having a rotating screen according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In FIG. 1, a notebook computer having a rotating screen is mainly composed of a screen 2, a keyboard 4, a mouse board 5, and a main frame 8. The screen 2 is connected to the rotating shaft 35 and the rotating shaft 36 so as to be rotatable around the rotating shaft 35 and the rotating shaft 36. The upper frame 31 and the left frame 33, the upper frame 31 and the right frame 32, the left frame 33 and the lower frame 34, and the right frame 32 and the lower frame 34 form a frame angle (corner portion) 37, a frame angle 38, respectively. A frame angle 310 and a frame angle 39 are formed and connected. The lower frame 34 and the main frame 8 are rotatably connected as shown in FIG. In this embodiment, the rotating shafts 35 and 36 are provided on the left and right frames, but these are placed on the upper frame 31 and the lower frame 34, the frame angles 37 and 39, or the frame angles 38 and 310, respectively. It may be provided.

FIG. 2 is an operation sketch of the preferred embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, a notebook computer equipped with a rotating screen includes a screen 2, an upper frame 31, a right frame 32, a left frame 33, a lower frame 34, a rotating shaft 35, a rotating shaft 36, a corner (corner) 37, a corner 38, and a corner. 39, a corner 310, a keyboard 4, a mouse board 5, and a main frame 8. An arrow 6 indicates a direction in which the screen 2 rotates about the rotation shaft 35 and the rotation shaft 36 as a center of rotation, and is joined to the main frame 8 so as to be rotatable. The screen 2 is rotated in the direction 6 about the rotation shafts 35 and 36 as a rotation center, so that the back surface of the screen 2 faces the keyboard 4 and the display surface faces upward, so that the user directly touches the screen 2. To operate the notebook computer.

The present invention may be embodied in various computers, for example, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a palmtop computer, a handheld personal computer, and the like.

[0018]

[Effect of the invention]

 As described above, the notebook computer with a rotating screen according to the present invention is disadvantageous in that when a conventional notebook computer is combined with a projector and presented at a presentation site, the screen is fixed and the user feels inconvenient. Can be eliminated by making the screen completely reversible, and the screen can be touched with a pen-type output method, or the screen can be touched directly with a finger, providing more convenience. It greatly contributes to industrial use.
