The slide is coupled to move. The elastic force providing mechanism 23 is slidably coupled to the first frame 50 and the first frame 50 rotatably coupled to the base member 21 and slidably movable to the slide member 22. A plurality of coil springs 53 are disposed between the second frame 51, the first frame 50 and the second frame 51 to be coupled. The coil spring 53 applies an elastic force to each of the frames 50 and 51 so that the first frame 50 and the second frame 51 are separated from each other.

Insertion holes 54 and 55 are formed in one end of the first frame 50 and one end of the second frame 51, respectively. The first frame 50 is rotatably coupled to the base member 21 by inserting a support pin 56 coupled to the base member 21 in the insertion hole 54. The support pin 56 is inserted into the coupling hole 57 of the base member 21 through the insertion hole 54 of the first frame 50.

In the present invention, the engaging projection 58 and the connecting member 59 for slidably coupling the elastic force providing mechanism 23 to the long groove 49 of the slide member 22 is changed to other connecting means in addition to this configuration. Can be. In addition, although the guide member 24 and the connecting member 59 are shown coaxially arranged in the drawing, the guide member 24 and the connecting member 59 are spaced apart from each other at the other end of the elastic force providing mechanism 23. The structure can be changed.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described the operation of the sliding device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 4, when the second body 14 is in the closed position, the slide member 22 stops in the closed position because of the elastic force of the elastic force providing mechanism 23. Therefore, the second body 14 does not move easily even if it receives an external force smaller than the elastic force of the elastic force providing mechanism 23 and maintains a closed state. At this time, the guide surface 44 of the path guide member 25 blocks the straight path 34 of the guide groove 32, the guide member 24 is located at the end of the straight path 34.

When the second body 14 in the closed position is pushed in the opening direction A by an external force, the slide member 22 slides in the opening direction A along the pair of guide rails 28. At this time, the elastic force providing mechanism 23 is rotated in the clockwise direction in the drawing to increase the elastic force as the coil spring 38 is extended. And the guide member 24 and the connecting member 59 provided at the other end of the elastic force providing mechanism 23 slides along the long groove 49 of the slide member 22.

As shown in FIG. 5, the guide member 24 moving along the straight path 34 of the guide groove 32 in the opening direction A by the movement of the slide member 22 blocks the straight path 34. In contact with the guide surface 44 of the path guide member 25, the guide member 24 is guided to the bypass path 35 of the guide groove 32. As the slide member 22 continues to move in the opening direction A, the guide member 24 moves along the bypass path 35.

As shown in FIG. 6, when the slide member 22 moves a predetermined distance in the opening direction A, the guide member 24 moving along the bypass path 35 has a locking groove 36 connected to the straight path 34. ) When the guide member 24 is inserted into the locking groove 36, the locking jaw 37 provided around the locking groove 36 supports the guide member 24. At this time, the elastic force providing mechanism 23 applies an elastic force toward the straight path 34 and the closing direction (B) with respect to the guide member 24 inserted into the locking groove (36). When the external force applied to the second body 14 in this state is removed, the guide member 24 is caught in the locking jaw 37 so as not to return to the closing direction B and is inserted into the locking groove 36. do. Therefore, the slide member 22 pauses in the state which moved a predetermined distance in the opening direction A. FIG.

When the slide member 22 and the second body 14 are moved a predetermined distance in the opening direction A and stopped, some buttons 15 of the keypad 11 are exposed to the outside. Therefore, the user can use the portable device 10 by manipulating the exposed button 15 while the keypad 11 is partially exposed. Here, any position where the slide member 22 and the second body 14 pause before moving to the fully open position is the position of the locking groove 36 and the locking jaw 37 or the elastic force providing mechanism 23. Depending on the design conditions of the portable device 10, such as the installation location may be variously changed.

As shown in FIG. 6, in the partially open position where the slide member 22 and the second body 14 only expose a portion of the keypad 11 to the outside, the second body 14 is moved in the closing direction B in an external force. Even when receiving the guide member 24 is caught in the locking step 37, the second body 14 does not move in the closing direction (B). In addition, since the elastic force providing mechanism 23 exerts an elastic force in the closing direction B with respect to the second body 14, the second body 14 is not easily moved in the opening direction A and the second body ( It can only move in the opening direction (A) when a force greater than the elastic force under 14) is applied.

When an external force is applied to the second body 14 stopped at the partially open position in the opening direction A and the slide member 22 moves in the opening direction A, the guide member 24 is separated from the locking groove 36. Enter the straight path 34. And if the external force is removed before the second body 14 moves approximately half of the entire moving distance, the elastic force of the elastic force providing mechanism 23 acts in the closing direction B. At this time, the guide member 24 moves to the closed position along the straight path 34 without entering the bypass path 35 again. A detailed description of the closing operation of the slide member 22 will be described later. On the other hand, when the second body 14 paused in the partially open position moves externally in the opening direction by about half or more of the entire moving distance, as shown in FIG. 7, the elastic force of the elastic force providing mechanism 23 The second body 14 thereby slides with the slide member 22 semi-automatically to the fully open position.

On the other hand, when an external force is applied to the second body 14 in the fully open position in the closing direction B so that the slide member 22 moves about half or more of the entire moving distance, the slide member 22 is provided with an elastic force providing mechanism ( It slides in the closing direction B semi-automatically by the elastic force of 23). At this time, the guide member 24 is moved to the closed position along the straight path 34 without passing through the bypass path 35.

That is, as shown in FIG. 8, even when the guide member 24 moving in the closing direction B along the straight path 34 reaches the portion to which the bypass path 35 is connected, the guide member 24 is bypassed. Without entering the path 35, the path guide member 25 is pushed and continues to the straight path 34. When the guide member 24 moving in the closing direction B along the straight path 34 pushes the path guide member 25, the elastic member 45 connected to the path guide member 25 is elastically deformed and the path guide member is deformed. (25) rotates counterclockwise so that the guide surface 44 blocking the straight path 34 is out of the straight path 34. Accordingly, the guide member 24 may move along the straight path 34 only from the open position to the closed position, and the second body 14 may slide to the immediately closed position without passing through the partially open position.
