Abstract
A terminal apparatus includes a body and a display that is rotatably joined to the body by a swivel shaft. Hinge mechanisms that open and close the display with respect to the body are provided on both sides of the swivel shaft. The hinge mechanisms are connected to the ground of the display and parts of the hinge mechanisms protrude from the lower edge of the display. Metal components that are connected to the ground of the body and support and make conductive contact with the protrusions of the hinge mechanisms are provided on the body. Since the grounds of the display and the body are connected by both the swivel shaft and the hinge mechanisms, a potential difference between the grounds of the body and the display is reduced compared to when the grounds are connected only via the swivel shaft.
