The first casing 101 has a conductive casing ground portion 111 inside. Here, the housing ground portion is a ground pattern (having a ground potential) configured on the circuit board or a conductive member (having a ground potential) connected to the ground pattern configured on the circuit board. It is.

  The second housing 102 has a rectangular shape in plan view, and has an antenna element 112 and a circuit board 113 inside, and a display unit 114 that is exposed to the outside when the portable wireless device 100 is opened. The circuit board 113 has a conductive circuit pattern formed on a plane portion, and the conductive pattern and the display unit 114 are electrically and mechanically connected by connecting the conductive terminal of the display unit 114 to the circuit pattern. Connected. The display unit 114 is, for example, an LCD, and is placed on a flat surface part of the circuit board 113 on which the conductive pattern is formed, and displays an image of the received image data. In addition, the display unit 114 faces the operation surface of the first housing 101 on the inner side in a state where the portable wireless device 100 of FIG. 2 is folded. The display unit 114 displays an image in a direction parallel to the direction in which the second housing 102 is opened. Specifically, the display unit 114 displays an image in a direction parallel to the upward direction (up and down direction in FIG. 1) when opened in the upward direction in FIG. 1, and in a state opened in the right direction in FIG. The image is displayed in a direction parallel to the right direction (left and right direction in FIG. 3).

  The antenna element 112 is formed, for example, by pressing a conductive metal plate, and is formed in an L shape in plan view. The antenna element 112 is disposed on the circuit board 113 in the upper left corner 102a in FIG. 1 among the four corners 102a to 102d of the second housing 102. In addition, the short side portion 112a of the antenna element 112 is disposed along the upper side wall 117 of the second casing 102, and the antenna element 112 is arranged along the left side wall 116 perpendicularly intersecting the upper side wall 117 and the corner portion 118. The long side portion 112b is disposed. The antenna element 112 is positioned by the left side wall 116 and the upper side wall 117 of the second housing 102. On the circuit board 113, a power feeding unit 115 that is electrically connected to the antenna element 112 and feeds power to the antenna element 112 is provided. In FIG. 1, the first hinge portion 104, the second hinge portion 105, the housing ground portion 111, the antenna element 112, the circuit board 113, and the power feeding portion 115 are the first housing 101, the second housing 102, or the second housing 102. Since it is housed inside the three housings 103, it cannot actually be visually recognized from the outside.
