- the second display unit 11 of the second housing 102 is 0 is an input unit, that is, a liquid crystal touch panel
- the first display unit 103 and the second display unit 110 are combined to form one large liquid crystal screen. There is no useless area that is not displayed on the screen.
- a vertically long screen suitable for a mobile phone that is, a screen composed of the first display section 103 having an aspect ratio of 3 to 2
- a horizontally long screen suitable for a television and the Internet that is, an aspect ratio of 3 to 4
- a screen composed of a combination of the first display unit 103 and the second display unit 110 can be secured. That is, different with the desired aspect ratio
- the two screens can be easily secured by a rotating operation between the first housing 101 and the second housing 102.
- first housing 101 and the second housing 102 are relatively rotated in the same plane in a state where a plurality of wirings are accommodated in the first rotating portion 114. Therefore, while maintaining good electrical connection between the first housing 101 and the second housing 102, a connection form between the first housing 101 and the second housing 102 can be achieved. Can be changed, and a stable structure can be realized.
- first display section 103 of the first housing 101 and the second display section 110 of the second housing 102 are formed on the same surface, they can be used for mobile phones. When changing the connection mode for TV or Internet, or when changing the connection from TV or Internet to mobile phone, always both the first display unit 103 and the second display unit 110 The connection can be changed while viewing the screen, making this connection change operation easy.
- the screen of the second display section 110 of the second housing 102 forming the input section that is, the liquid crystal touch panel
- a desired call function can be secured, and Since the entire surface of the second display unit 110 can be set as an input unit, a relatively large area of the input unit can be secured, and an excellent operation function can be provided. In other words, it contributes to the realization of mobile phones with higher accuracy.
- a first protective plate 107a When used as a mobile phone, a first protective plate 107a extends laterally from a predetermined long side 101b of the first housing 101, and a predetermined protection plate 107a of the second housing 102 is provided. A second protective plate 107b extends laterally from the long side 102b. As a result, the edge of the first display portion 103 of the first housing 101 and the edge of the second display portion 110 of the second housing 102 are not exposed to the outside. Edge protection can be realized.
- the first locking means consisting of the elements 106a and 106b can maintain the stable shape of the mobile phone, and the second locking means consisting of the elements 108a and 108b.
- the stable shape of the television receiver and the Internet receiver can be maintained by the lock means. As a result, the reliability of the device can be improved.
- the first protection plate 107a can be held in a stable state by the third locking means composed of the elements 119a and 119b, and the fourth protection element composed of the elements 121a and 121b can be maintained.
- the second protection plate 107b can be held in a stable state by the lock means, and the reliability of the device can be improved also by these means.
- the first to fourth locking means are not released. A situation in which the entire shape is easily changed from portrait to landscape or from landscape to portrait can be prevented, and the reliability of the device can also be improved.
- the band 118 is engaged with the human hand, so that the entire device is stabilized. The state can be maintained, and the operability during each operation can be improved. Also, even if for some reason a conductor other than the hand approaches the capacitance sensor 117 by pressing the band 118, such a conductor may come into contact with the capacitance sensor 117. Blocked by bands 1 18 In other words, the occurrence of a malfunction can be prevented by the band 118, which can also improve the reliability of the device.
- the aspect ratios of the first housing 101 including the first display unit 103 and the second housing 102 including the second display unit 110 are respectively 3 It is set to pair 2, but may be set to 9 to 8.
- the liquid crystal screen formed by the first display unit 103 can be a slightly vertically long screen, and a television receiver
- a liquid crystal display composed of a combination of the first display 103 and the second display 110 The surface can be a landscape screen with an aspect ratio of 9:16. This aspect ratio is also suitable for television and the Internet.
- a long side and a short side are provided, the long sides of the first housing and the second housing are in contact with each other, and the short sides of the first housing and the second housing are short.
- Any shape may be used as long as the sides can contact each other. Therefore, for example, portions other than the long side and the short side of the first housing and the second housing may be curved.
- the first and second housings 101 and 102 are formed as follows. , May be square.
- the electronic device of this invention can provide the electronic device excellent in portability by folding a display unit.
- the screen display units provided in each display unit into one, it is possible to provide an electronic device having a larger screen display unit. That is, it is possible to provide an electronic device having portability and operability comparable to that of a conventional mobile phone, and having a large screen display unit comparable to a liquid crystal television receiver or a PDA.
