20080200222 | SLIDE MODULE AND MOBILE TERMINAL HAVING THE SAME - A slide module includes a first slide member configured to slide upwardly and downwardly, a second slide member slidably mounted to the first slide member, an elastic force unit disposed between the first slide member and the second slide member, and having a plurality of elastic members mounted between a first rotation bar and a second rotation bar, wherein an elastic force is generated when the first rotation bar and the second rotation bar are rotated. | 08-21-2008 |
20090245933 | SLIDE MODULE AND MOBILE TERMINAL HAVING THE SAME - A mobile terminal including a first body, a second body slidably moveable with respect to the first body such that the first body is moved between a closed position and an open position, a connector electrically connecting the first body to the second body, and a slide module connecting the first body to the second body to allow the second body to move with respect to the first body between the closed position and the open position is provided. The slide module includes a cover unit to prevent exposure of the connector when the first body is in the open position. | 10-01-2009 |
20090247247 | SLIDE MODULE AND MOBILE TERMINAL HAVING THE SAME - A mobile terminal including a first body, a second body slidably moveable with respect to the first body such that the first body is moved between a closed position and an open position, a connector electrically connecting the first body to the second body, and a slide module connecting the first body to the second body to allow the second body to move with respect to the first body between the closed position and the open position is provided. The slide module includes a first slide member connected to the first body, a second slide member connected to the second body, the second slide member being slidably connected to the first slide member, and a cover unit disposed between the first and second slide members, the cover unit being configured to prevent exposure of the connector when the first body is in the open position. | 10-01-2009 |
20090286573 | PORTABLE TERMINAL - A portable terminal is provided where the portable terminal has an upper body including an upper surface and a lower surface, a lower body having an upper surface, the upper body being slidably connected to the lower body for movement between a closed position and an open position to expose a portion of the upper surface of the second body, and a first moving unit connected between the upper body and the lower body, the first moving unit being configured to permit tilting of the upper body with respect to the lower body such that a portion of the lower surface of the upper body is lower than the exposed portion of the upper surface of the second body. | 11-19-2009 |
20090286574 | PORTABLE TERMINAL - A portable terminal is provided where the portable terminal includes a lower body, an upper body connected to the lower body, the upper body being slidably moveable in a first direction with respect to the lower body between a closed position and an open position, and a first moving unit connected between the upper body and the lower body to move the upper body in a second direction different from the first direction. The first moving unit is configured to move the upper body toward the lower body along the second direction when the upper body is moved from the closed position to the open position and to move the upper body away from the lower body along the second direction when the upper body is moved from the open position to the closed position. | 11-19-2009 |
20090316354 | PORTABLE TERMINAL - An open/close mechanism of a portable terminal is provided. The portable terminal is configured such that when applying a force to an upper body in a horizontal direction with respect to a lower body, a slide-slip module allows the upper body subsequently to slide in the horizontal direction and slip in a longitudinal thickness direction with respect to the lower body so as to implement an open state, whereby a step generation between an upper surface of the upper body and an upper surface of the lower body can be minimized, so as to achieve a structurally stable portable terminal. | 12-24-2009 |
20100004027 | MOBILE TERMINAL WITH TILTING DISPLAY - A slide type mobile terminal having a first body and a second body is provided. The first body includes a display and a first slide member. The second body includes a key pad and is slidably coupled to the first body. The second body includes a second slide member to slidably engage the corresponding first slide member of the first body to allow movement of the first body and the second body to enable one of closed or tilted configurations. One of the first and second slide members has a curvature along at least one end such that when the first body is extended from the second body, the first body is tilted at a predetermined angle with respect to the second body. The first body receives a portion of the second body and the second body receives a portion of the first body in the closed position. | 01-07-2010 |
20100035669 | SLIDE TYPE MOBILE TERMINAL WITH TILTABLE SLIDE MODULE - A mobile terminal is provided. The mobile terminal includes an upper body, a lower body, and a slide module connecting the upper and lower bodies, where the slide module is configured to slidably move the upper body in a first linear motion relative to the lower body and to tilt the upper body at an angle relative to the lower body in a second motion. The slide module includes an upper slide member fixed to the upper body, a lower slide member fixed to the lower body, and at least one cam portion formed on the upper slide member such that the at least one cam portion is configured to contact the lower slide member when the upper slide member is moved toward an open configuration using the first motion, wherein the contact causes the upper slide member to tilt when the upper slide member is moved to the open configuration using the second motion. | 02-11-2010 |
20110317349 | PORTABLE TERMINAL - A portable terminal is provided where the portable terminal has an upper body including an upper surface and a lower surface, a lower body having an upper surface, the upper body being slidably connected to the lower body for movement between a closed position and an open position to expose a portion of the upper surface of the second body, and a first moving unit connected between the upper body and the lower body, the first moving unit being configured to permit tilting of the upper body with respect to the lower body such that a portion of the lower surface of the upper body is lower than the exposed portion of the upper surface of the second body. | 12-29-2011 |
