A mobile terminal having three parts rotatably interconnected by hinges. The terminal can be a mobile telephone having an operative position where a microphone and a loudspeaker are positioned for conversation. When not in operation, the terminal may be positioned around a user's wrist in a safe manner. Removing the terminal from the wrist requires operation of a release means or the overcoming of a predetermined force, which is a safety measure of the hinges and the terminal. The hinges provide a combination of snap or automatic rotation and freely selective rotational positions of the parts of the terminal.

Transformer hinge design

A mobile terminal, such as a mobile telephone, has a hinge with a helical spring and which provides both snap opening or automatic opening upon activation of a release means as well as a freely selectable angular position between the rotating parts of the terminal. Also, a new type of spring hinges or clutches are described for use in, for example, this type of terminal.

A novel folding design for a mobile station is disclosed that provides a stylish design, a simplified assembly, and relatively few parts. The improved foldable mobile station comprises a flexible front cover, multiple functional units coupled together by a folding hinge and a tension unit. The tension unit provides a compressive force to the pivotally attached functional units thereby biasing the foldable mobile station between open and folded positions.

An electronic radiotelephone comprising a first housing, a second housing, and an inner housing having retaining means for retaining to the inner housing the electronic components of the radiotelephone; and first releasable attaching means for releasable attaching the first housing to the inner housing, wherein the first housing, when attached to the inner housing, is presented towards a user during operation of the radiotelephone; and second releasably attaching means for releasable attaching the second housing to the inner housing, wherein the second housing, when attached to the inner housing, faces away from the user during operation of the radiotelephone.

An antenna body part for use in an antenna device using a separate metal shield as ground plane is manufactured by forming a first part of the dielectric body by injection molding where a first resin is injected into a first cavity in the injection molding tool; forming a composite dielectric body by injection molding where a second resin injected into a second cavity in the injection molding tool, said first part of the dielectric body is placed in the second cavity as a core for becoming an integrated part of the composite body; and coating a metallic layer onto the surface of the composite dielectric body where said first and second resins are selected to have different adhesive properties for the metal coating so one of the resins repels the metallic layer while the other allows the metallic layer to adhere.
