Portable audio equipment comprising: a housing comprising an acoustic passage that protrudes from one side thereof and has an open one end portion; a partition dividing the acoustic passage into a first acoustic passage and a second acoustic passage; an acoustic output unit for outputting sounds through the first acoustic passage; and inner microphone for collecting sounds through the second acoustic passage; and a control unit inside the housing, controlling the acoustic output unit so as to output sounds, and processing the sound collected through the inner microphone, can more effectively cancel external noise by further including the inner microphone for collecting sounds inputted through the body of a user.

Portable audio equipment

A mobile terminal includes: a rib configured to protrude within a terminal body; and a connector installed in the rib and configured to electrically connect a printed circuit board (PCB) installed within the terminal body and a flexible printed circuit board (FPCB) supported by at least one side wall of the rib, wherein the connector includes: a housing formed of an insulating material and configured to include an accommodation portion covering the rib; and a terminal installed in the housing and including a first contact portion in contact with the FPCB accommodated within the accommodation portion and a second contact portion configured to be bent and extend from the first contact portion so as to be in contact with the PCB.

Mobile terminal

There is disclosed a mobile terminal including a rear case having a back plate and a lateral wall; a front case coupled to a front surface of the rear case to form a predetermined space where components are mounted; a button hole formed in the lateral wall; a retaining projection projected from an inner surface of the button hole in a perpendicular direction with respect to the lateral wall; a side key inserted in the button hole; and a retaining rib extended from an inner or lateral surface of the side key to be fastened to the retaining projection, such that in case the button hole may be provided in the lateral surface of the rear case to insert the side key therein, the retaining projection which is able to be integrally formed with the button hole and the retaining rib which is able to be coupled to the retaining projection stably can be arranged to retain the side key stably in a process of assembling the side key.

A mobile terminal includes a window having a pattern formed to recognize a user's touch input, a key region formed on one surface of the window, and a key body assembly disposed on the other surface of the window to be laminated on the key region, and the key body assembly has one surface equipped with at least one recess member or protrusion member and the other surface equipped with a key body coupled to a light guide film, whereby the mobile terminal can have a distinguished attraction and a quality-enhanced appearance.

A mobile terminal having a terminal body, a circuit board located in the terminal body, the circuit board including a plurality of switches located thereon and an input device is provided. The input device is configured to input a control command and is installed at the terminal body. The input device includes a key top configured to be pressable in one direction, the key top having a rear surface facing the circuit board, a plurality of pressing portions protruding from the rear surface of the key top, each pressing portion being configured to extend toward a corresponding switch of the plurality of switches and at least one dummy pressing portion disposed between one pressing portion and another pressing portion of the plurality of pressing portions, the at least one dummy pressing portion being supported by the circuit board when the key top is pressed such that, when one switch of the plurality of switches is pressed by said one pressing portion, the at least one dummy pressing portion is configured to prevent said another pressing portion from pressing another switch of the plurality of switches.
