20090278793 | INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND MEDIUM RECORDING INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM - To provide an information processing device, an information processing method, and a medium recording an information processing program that can be operated easily. | 11-12-2009 |
20100014229 | Electronic device and supporting structure - An electronic device and a supporting structure that are designed to decrease the number of parts and assembly steps, thereby reducing manufacturing cost. A stand has a pair of arm sections of which one ends are rotatably supported on an upper side of a pair of frames each formed of two-coupled frames when an image display module stands upright; and a rod section for connecting the other ends of the pair of arm sections. The stand is rotatable among a folded state in which the stand overlaps with the image display module, a using state in which the stand is opened at predetermined degrees from the image display module and used as a stand to obliquely stand the image display module, and an opened state in which the stand is opened at approximately 180 degrees from the folded state and used as a handle when carrying the image display module. | 01-21-2010 |
20100014230 | Electronic device and keyboard mechanism - An electronic device adapted to stow a keyboard therein in a way screen is exposed even after the keyboard has been stowed in the electronic device. A keyboard module is pivoted for turning on a supporting member supported on a lower section of a pair of frames each of which is made up of two-coupled frames. The keyboard is allowed to turn through a space defined with the pair of frames and also a lower edge of the display module that has been shifted upwards. Thus, the keyboard is allowed to rotate between a using state in which the keyboard is kept with keys lying upward and a stowed state in which the keyboard, after turned in a way a front edge thereof is raised, is kept standing upright and concealed behind the display module which is moved downward. | 01-21-2010 |
20100014272 | Electronic device and frame - An electronic device workable on electric power and able to avoid troublesome connection and handling of a power cable, and a frame that supports the electronic device. A power terminal of an image display module, a power terminal of a main unit module, and a power terminal of a connector module are supplied with electric power from power terminals of frames provided in the frames and a joint part, in a state where a frame receiving section of the image display module, a frame receiving section of the main unit module, and a frame receiving section of the connector module are supported on the frames. | 01-21-2010 |
