Abstract
A sliding type portable terminal includes a first housing and a second housing slidably engaged face-to-face with the first housing. The portable terminal includes a guide member mounted in a first closed area provided on one surface of the first housing and always covered up by the second housing, and a slide member mounted on one surface of the second housing and sliding over the first housing by being guided by the guide member. A wiring passageway for wiring a flexible printed circuit board is formed in the slide member. The flexible printed circuit board is wired through a slit for coupling the guide member to the slide member without providing a slide cover for opening/closing the wiring passageway or forming a separate wiring passageway, thereby preventing the flexible printed circuit board from being exposed to the outside and ensuring elegant appearance of the terminal.
