According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus is provided with a first housing that comprises a first ground and a second housing comprising a second ground. The electronic apparatus further comprises (i) a plurality of first protrusions on an inner surface of the first housing, at least one of the plurality of first protrusions comprising, on a peripheral surface thereof, a first conductor electrically connected to the first ground; (ii) a hinge pivotably connecting the first housing and the second housing; and (iii) a cable extending between inside the first housing and inside the second housing through the hinge, supported by the plurality of first protrusions, electrically connected to the first conductor in the first housing, and electrically connected to the second ground in the second housing, the cable electrically connecting the first ground and the second ground.

Electronic apparatus

According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus is provided with a case, a module contained in the case, a ground provided in the case, a plurality of protrusions which protrude from an inner surface of the case, and a cable connected electrically to the module. At least one of the protrusions includes, on a side face thereof, a conductor connected electrically to the ground. The cable includes an electrically conductive film and is supported by the respective side faces of the protrusions.

A notebook PC has a main unit and a display unit. The main unit incorporates a power-supply circuit and a display control circuit. The display unit comprises an LCD panel and a backlight. The main unit and display unit are electrically connected by an LCD harness. The LCD harness extends through a hinge mechanism that couples the display unit to the main unit, allowing the display unit to rotate. The LCD harness comprises lines including power lines and signal lines. The power lines supply power from the power-supply circuit to the LCD panel and the backlight. The signal lines supply data from the display control circuit to the LCD panel. A ferrite core wraps only the signal lines.

Data-processing apparatus with wire harness and ferrite core

A display device comprises a box-shaped casing having an opening for display, and a display unit contained in the casing, the display unit having a display screen exposed to the opening. The casing includes a display cover and a display mask coupled to the display cover and having the opening. The display cover and display mask have outer peripheral edge portions, respectively, which are detachably coupled to each other. The display unit is provided with a plurality of support portions extending toward the outer peripheral edge portions. The support portions is clamped between the outer peripheral edge portion of the display cover and the outer peripheral edge portion of the display mask, whereby the display unit is fixed in the casing.

Display device having a casing containing a display panel, and portable

A portable apparatus such as a portable computer comprises a box-shaped housing, a functional element contained within the housing, and a bracket for supporting the housing. The bracket has a coupling portion situated within the housing. The housing includes a wall for supporting the functional element and a peripheral wall formed to be continuous with a peripheral edge portion of the wall and to surround the functional element. The coupling portion of the bracket is fixed to the peripheral wall of the housing.

Portable apparatus with housing for containing functional elements and

A portable apparatus comprises a housing including a pack receptacle having an insertion port. The pack receptacle has a first connector facing to the insertion port. A circuit board is contained in the housing. The circuit board is positioned between the pack receptacle and a bottom wall of the housing. The pack receptacle contains a pack device to be detachable through the insertion port. The pack device has a second connector to be detachably connected to the first connector. The pack receptacle has an ejector for ejecting the pack device. The ejector has a pressing member for pressing the pack device in a direction away from the first connector and an operation member, positioned at the upper portion of the circuit board to be linked with the pressing member. The operation member has a lever section along the peripheral wall of the housing. The operation member is supported by the housing to be slidable between a first position where the lever section is stored in the housing and a second position where the lever section is projected to the outside of the housing. The operation member is supported by said housing to be rotatable between an ejecting position where the pressing member is advanced to the pack device contained in the pack receptacle at the second position and a releasing position where the pressing member is separated away from the pack device.

Portable apparatus having ejector for ejecting pack device

A portable apparatus comprises a housing having an opening portion, a pack receptacle formed in the housing, and a battery pack detachably contained in the pack receptacle through the opening portion. The pack receptacle has a slider for maintaining the battery pack at the pack receptacle. The slider is movable between a lock position and a lock releasing position, and maintained at the lock position through a spring. The slider has an insertion port, an engaging portion, a first cam portion, and a second cam portion. The insertion port is formed such that a convex portion of the battery pack is detachably inserted therethrough to be continuous to the opening portion. The engaging portion is formed to be engaged with the convex portion when the slider is moved to the lock position. The first cam portion connects the engaging portion to the insertion port, and slidably comes in contact with the convex portion when said slider is moved to the lock releasing position from the lock position, thereby pressing the convex portion to the insertion port thereby partially lifting the battery pack form the pack receptacle. The second cam portion is formed at a portion continuous to the insertion port, and the second cam portion slidably comes in contact with the convex portion when the pack device is inserted to the pack receptacle, thereby moving the slider to the lock releasing position from the lock position.
