Electronic apparatus having a sub display

An electronic apparatus includes a chassis, a lower cover member constituting the bottom surface of the chassis, and a foot member provided projecting from the surface of the lower cover member. The foot member includes a metal core member having a bar shape and extending along one edge of the lower cover member, and a rubber or resin skin member provided on the surface of the core member.

An electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device includes an antenna module having an antenna, and a body chassis storing electronic components. The body chassis, which is made of an electromagnetic shielding material such as metal, has a flat plate with a processor arranged thereon and with a cutout portion formed at an end portion thereof, a rear plate connected to the end portion of the flat plate, and a dent wall connected to the cutout portion and to the rear plate. The antenna module is provided in an antenna section whose front, left, and right sides are enclosed by the dent wall.

Electronic device having an antenna

An electronic apparatus having a display that appears to be floating in air is disclosed. The electronic apparatus includes a first transparent plate; a second transparent plate facing the first transparent plate; a display provided between the first transparent plate and the second transparent plate to partially cover the first transparent plate and the second transparent plate; and a transparent member provided between the first transparent plate and the second transparent plate to fill around the display.

Portable information apparatus having a display

A transceiver is disclosed. The transceiver includes a first unit capable of a full-duplex communication using an electromagnetic wave, and a second unit capable of a full-duplex communication using an electromagnetic wave. The first unit includes a transmitter and a receiver arranged in this order at a predetermined interval in a first direction. The second unit includes a receiver and a transmitter arranged in this order at a predetermined interval in the first direction. The second unit is placed adjacent to the first unit in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.

Electronic apparatus having multiple transceivers

An electronic apparatus having a suction port is disclosed. The electronic device includes a first main body, a second main body that has a main display and is coupled to the first main body to be rotationally movable around a first hinge, and a sub display that is installed on an upper surface of the first main body to be rotationally movable around a second hinge, and is configured to be opened relative to the first main body when the second main body is opened relative to the first main body. A suction port is formed in a part of the first main body that is covered with the sub display when the sub display is closed.

Electronic apparatus having a suction port

A portable information device includes a first support plate fixed to a first chassis member; a second support plate fixed to a second chassis member and provided adjacent to the first support plate; a display whose rear surface is supported by a front surface of the first support plate and the second support plate; and an adhesive member configured to fix the front surface of the first support plate and the second support plate and the rear surface of the display. The adhesive member has a first adhesive layer adhered to the rear surface of the display; and a second adhesive layer adhered to a part of the front surface of the first support plate and the second support plate and including a non-adhesive portion provided in at least a range overlapping with a bending region.

Portable information device

An electronic apparatus appropriately outputs low-frequency sound to high-frequency sound to enable acoustic reproduction with high sound quality is disclosed. A portable information apparatus includes a first speaker; and an expansion device includes a second speaker. The portable information apparatus includes a mode switching unit for selecting a single mode or a combined mode; and an acoustic adjustment unit for adjusting acoustic data output to the first speaker and/or the second speaker. During the single mode, the acoustic adjustment unit outputs the acoustic data to the first speaker.
