Abstract
A portable apparatus includes a display device coupled to a housing by means of a hinge mechanism. The display device can be closed such that it is laid on the upper surface of the housing. The portable apparatus comprises a cable-protecting member. This cable-protecting member protects a cable, which electrically connects the housing and the display together and passes through the hinge mechanism. Even if the display device is frequently raised or lowered with reference to the housing, the cable is reliably protected by the cable-protecting member. Therefore, the cable is prevented from being worn away.
