20110130178 | SLIDING-TYPE PORTABLE TERMINAL - A sliding-type portable terminal including a first housing, a second housing assembled with the first housing in such that the second housing is linearly movable relative to the first housing while being in contact with the first housing. The second housing is formed of a front case and a rear case, and sliding rails are assembled with inner surfaces on both sides of the rear case, respectively. A sliding guide is arranged on the first housing, and includes first guide grooves slidably holding both sides of the rear case. Second guide grooves extend with the first guide grooves in parallel and slidably holding the sliding rails, respectively. The portable terminal restricts unnecessary movement of the second housing relative to the first housing, and achieve smooth sliding of the housings. | 06-02-2011 |
20120127641 | GUIDE DEVICE FOR SLIDING UNIT OF SLIDING-TYPE PORTABLE TERMINAL - Provided is a guide device for a sliding unit used in a sliding-type portable terminal. The guide device includes a slide lower portion, a guide plate, a slide plate integrally engaged with a bottom surface of the slide lower portion, the slide plate sliding while being confined in the guide plate in a way to face the guide plate, and a plurality of lubrication members provided with intervals therebetween in a longitudinal direction of the guide plate to facilitate sliding of the slide plate. The guide device achieves slimness and lightweightness while maintaining mechanical stiffness. | 05-24-2012 |
20120224307 | DAMPING DEVICE FOR TRANSVERSE SLIDING-TYPE PORTABLE TERMINAL - The present disclosure provides a damping device for a transverse sliding-type portable terminal includes a body, a sliding body, a sliding guide module configured to transversely guide the sliding of the sliding body on the body, wherein the damping device is installed at a central portion of a front circumference of the sliding body to minimize friction during an opening/closing operation of the sliding body with respect to the body. | 09-06-2012 |
20150304467 | ANTIFUNGAL COVER AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME - An electronic device for rendering a display unit antifungal. The electronic device includes a body including a display unit; and an antifungal cover that is removeably attached to the body, the antifungal cover including an antifungal module on one surface thereof. If the antifungal cover covers the display unit, the display unit projects a wavelength of light that activates an antifungal property of the antifungal module. | 10-22-2015 |
