Mobile phone

The present disclosure relates to a mobile terminal including: a circuit board provided in a case; a connector mounting part penetrating one side of the case and enabling connection with an external device; and a connector combined with the circuit board and provided in the connector mounting part, wherein the connector includes: a connector body mounted and installed on the connector mounting part so that the rear end portion is supported by the case; and a terminal part which is combined with the connector body, and in which a plurality of contact pins are molded for connection with an external device, and which extends toward the connector mounting part, wherein a waterproofing member is provided between the connector mounting part and the connector body to block the movement of fluid introduced through the connector mounting part.

Mobile terminal

A mobile terminal includes a display unit; a front window arranged in front of the display unit; a frame arranged behind the display unit; and a waterproof member arranged between an edge of the front window and an edge of the frame forming a closed loop and forming a sealed space between the front window and the frame by forming a looped curve, wherein the water proof member comprises a start portion, an end portion and the looped curve between the start portion and the end portion, the start portion and the end portion are bent toward the inside of the looped curve.

A key module for a mobile terminal, and which includes a key having a neck part and a head key pressed to enter an input to the mobile terminal; a circuit support configured to support a circuit board having a dome terminal to be pressed when the key head is pressed for entering the input to the terminal; and a waterproof member positioned between the key and the circuit support and configured to block a moisture penetration path along a hole in a case member of the mobile terminal into which the key module is inserted.

Key module and mobile terminal having same, and method of assembling key module

There is disclosed a mobile terminal comprising a display unit comprising a first flat area and a second flat area provided adjacent to at least predetermined portion of the first flat area; a front window arranged in front of the display unit and comprising a second flat area and a second curved area provided adjacent to at least predetermined portion of the second flat area; a frame arranged behind the display unit and comprising a third flat area with the same right-and-left width to the first flat area and a third curved area provided adjacent to at least predetermined portion of the third flat area; an adhesive member arranged between the first flat area and the third flat area and configured to bondingly couple the display unit and the frame to each other; and a waterproof member provided on an outer surface of the adhesive member and configured to close a space formed between the front window and the frame by forming a looped curve between an edge of the front window and an edge of the frame, wherein at least predetermined portion of each of the second and third curved areas is overlapped with the first curved area, and at least predetermined portion of the waterproof member is provided between an outer end of the second curved area and an outer end of the third curved area, and the waterproof member divides the space formed between the front window and the frame into a closed inner space and a closed outer space, and a back-and-forth gap between the front window and the frame in the closed inner space is larger than a back-and-forth gap between the front window and the frame in the closed outer space.

A mobile terminal includes a main body case, a user input unit configured to detect an input of a control command in a manner that one side of the user input unit is arranged to a side of the main body case and a controller configured to control according to the control command detected by the user input unit. The user input unit includes a rotatable input unit housing combined with the side of the main body case, a rotation detection unit configured to detect a rotation of the input unit housing and deliver a rotation input to the controller and a camera module mounted on the input unit housing. The mobile terminal can expand an input function using a stem button.
