Problems solved by technology

[0003] Nokia today The problem with Communicator (9000, 9110, 9210, ...) is that the clamshell thinking is starting to hit its limits and doesn't allow for more options
The display element incorporated into the body of the device is visible through the transparent area of ​​the cover in the closed position, but this is just another example of the traditional clamshell configuration that has been in use for many years
A further disadvantage of the device described in WO 9819434 is that the device cannot be used on a table in a laptop style, since the display is incorporated into the body of the device so that the device will tilt when opened and placed on a table

Embodiment Construction

[0034] figure 1 It is an exploded view of main parts of a mobile electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention. The folding mechanism shown here enables the use of only one large PDA display on such a device with two modes, phone mode and PDA mode. The electronic device includes a cover 2 , a display 4 , a main body 6 and two connecting rods 8 . The main body 6 may also be designated as a keyboard or a keyboard unit.

[0035] figure 2 show figure 1 The physical connection between parts of an electronic device. This mechanism comprises two connecting rods 8, one end of which is connected to the front cover 2 and the other end is connected to the display element 4, both ends being pivotally attached. The display element 4 and the main body 6 are connected by a slideway 30, and the slideway 30 allows axial rotation and movement along the slideway. The main body 6 and the front cover 2 are hinged together.

Abstract

The present invention proposes a new method of realizing a larger keypad in a foldable mobile electronic device terminal device without increasing the size. The mobile terminal device is foldable and can be arranged in a closed position and an open position, wherein a large display is at least partially visible and operable in both positions. A mobile terminal device according to the present invention includes a main body, a display and at least one cover. The cover is movably attached to the body and includes a kinematic chain or a gear to move or guide the display so that it is viewable in both the closed and open positions.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a foldable mobile electronic device (MED). More particularly, the present invention relates to foldable communication devices and personal digital assistant (PDA) type devices. More specifically, the invention relates to the field of folding mechanisms for communication devices and devices of the PDA type. In particular, the invention relates to mobile electronic devices with pivotable display elements. Background technique [0002] The integration of mobile devices involves the fact that mobile phones and other mobile terminal devices such as PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants) and pocket computers are becoming smarter, smaller and offer more and more different functions. This leads to the need for a greater variety of input devices such as keyboards. At the same time, however, the size of the mobile terminal devices must remain the same or even become smaller. As the size of mobile terminal devices decreases, the d...
