A mobile device includes a first housing, a second housing, a bias member, a first stopper and a second stopper. The second housing is slidably coupled to the first housing in a sliding range. The bias member biases the second housing from a middle position of the sliding range to one end of the sliding range. The first stopper is provided on the first housing, is connected to a ground of the first housing, and has electrical conductivity. The second stopper is provided on the second housing, has electrical conductivity, and comes into contact with the first stopper to define the one end of the sliding range.

Mobile device

A removable unit is designed to enjoy a change of attitude relative to an apparatus body. The apparatus body is received on the surface of a desk at first rubber pads. The removable unit has a pair of second rubber pads on its bottom surface located at a position adjacent to the bottom surface of the apparatus body. The bottom surface of the electronic apparatus is in this manner spaced from the surface of the desk. When a piece of paper is inserted between the second rubber pad and the surface of the desk, the change of attitude of the removable unit allows the other second rubber pad to contact the surface of the desk. The removable unit absorbs the difference of elevation based on the change of attitude. The removable unit allows the second rubber pads to contact. The electronic apparatus suffers from less rattling.

Electronic apparatus

An electronic apparatus is received on the front surface of an enclosure. A connector is connected to the electronic apparatus. When the electronic apparatus is to be demounted, an operating body is pulled out from a retract position toward a pulled-out position. A movable member moves from a first position to a second position. The movable member at the second position serves to protrude lifting members out of the front surface of the enclosure, so that the lifting members urge the electronic apparatus upward. The connector is disconnected from the electronic apparatus. The movable member allows the movement of the operating body from the pulled-out position to the retract position while the movable member stays at the second position. The operating body returns to the retract position while the disconnection is maintained between the connector and the electronic apparatus.

Extension unit for electronic apparatus

An electronic device includes a housing and a receiving part formed in the housing and configured to receive a received device. A part of the receiving part has a shield structure whereby electromagnetic interference is prevented from radiating.

A second enclosure can be folded over a first enclosure based on the rotation around a rotation axis defined relative to the first enclosure. A protrusion member is guided on the second enclosure along a straight line between first and second positions. A receiving hole is defined in the first enclosure so as to receive the insertion of the protrusion member protruding out of the front or back surface of the second enclosure. Even if one end of the protrusion member collides against the first enclosure during the fold of the second enclosure over the first enclosure, the protrusion member is caused to move. The first enclosure is thus prevented from suffering from damages or scratches over the first enclosure.

Electronic apparatus including immobilizing mechanism for swivel mechanism

An enclosure of an electronic apparatus includes an upper panel covering over the upper surface of an inner space of the enclosure. A connector is incorporated in the enclosure. The electronic apparatus allows the upper panel to define the peripheral edge retreating from the tip end of the connector. When the user of electronic apparatus looks down at the upper panel, the user can see the tip end of the connector. The user is in this manner allowed to locate the connector without looking into the side of the enclosure. The user can thus insert a plug or male connector into a connector or female connector with a higher reliability. A cover member may be used to cover over the tip end of the connector.

Electronic apparatus including visible connector

A switch lock apparatus includes a switching mechanism configured to switch a switch provided at a main body part where a cover body is rotatably provided to a lock-off state where operation can be done or a lock-on state where the operation cannot be done, and an interlocking mechanism configured to control the switching mechanism so that the switch is switched to be in the lock-on state based on the cover body being rotated to a closing position.

Switch lock apparatus, portable computer, and electronic apparatus

A connector is mounted on a printed circuit board in an enclosure. A member is interposed between the enclosure and the printed circuit board so as to hold the printed circuit board on the enclosure. The member allows change in the attitude of the printed circuit board relative to the enclosure. When the connector is coupled to the other connector, the connector receives a force from the other connector in the electronic apparatus. The force induces the change in the attitude of the connector and the printed circuit board. The change in the attitude in this manner enables consumption of the energy of the force within the member. Generation of stress can be suppressed in a bonding member such as a solder coupling the connector with the printed circuit board, for example. Generation of cracks can be prevented in the solder. Shockproof is improved for the connector.

Electronic apparatus with connector of changeable attitude

A support member is incorporated in a first enclosure. A rotating member is supported on the support member for relative rotation around a first rotation axis. A second enclosure is coupled to the rotating member for relative rotation around a second rotation axis extending along a plane perpendicular to the first rotation axis. A hinge cap having a predetermined elasticity covers over the rotating member. A protrusion formed on the hinge cap is engaged with the rotating member based on the elasticity of the hinge cap. When the second enclosure is folded over the first enclosure, either the front or back surface of the second enclosure can be received on the front surface of the first enclosure. Even if the user carries the electronic apparatus, the hinge cap is reliably prevented from rattling. Generation of noise can be avoided.
