Benefits of technology

[0020]According to the mobile communication terminal according to the present invention, with the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 closed, information at the time of communication can be indicated by the second display 21 of the second housing 2, and moreover, with the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 open, in the case where an image is displayed over the screens of the displays 11, 21, continuousness of the image can be maintained to prevent a feeling of strangeness regarding the image displayed over two displays.

Problems solved by technology

However, since the size of the screen of the display is limited by the size of the housing, the increase in the size of the display has a limitation.

Abstract

A mobile communication terminal which can indicate information on a single display with a first housing and a second housing closed, and moreover, maintain continuousness of an image displayed over two display screens with the housings open.The portable communication terminal according to the present invention comprises the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 that are connected to each other. A first display 11 is placed on the front face of the first housing 1, a second display 21 is placed on the front face of the second housing 2, and a second input touch panel 22 is placed on the front face of the second display 21 to cover at least a part of this front face. The first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are relatively movable between a closed position and an open position. At the closed position, the rear face of the second housing 2 is superposed on the front face of the first housing 1. At the open position, the front face of the first display 11 and the front face of the second display 21 are aligned flush with each other and both the displays 11, 21 are set adjacent to each other.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a mobile communication terminal such as a portable telephone or the like, and particularly to a dual screen mobile communication terminal comprising a first housing and a second housing each including a display arranged thereon.BACKGROUND ART[0002]In recent years, portable telephones have been multi-functionalized more and more, and along with this, information to be displayed on a display has become various. Therefore, the size of a screen of the display has been increased. However, since the size of the screen of the display is limited by the size of the housing, the increase in the size of the display has a limitation.[0003]It has been proposed that in a display apparatus for a mobile, two housings are foldably connected to each other, and each of the housings includes a display arranged on an inner face thereof so as to display more information with the two screens (e.g., Japan Patent Laid-Open 11-167354).[0004]Therefore, con...
