Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
There is provided a metal structure that holds the display unit, as the main structure, and a casing structure that is integrally molded from resin onto the metal structure. The metal structure is resilient against flexural loads, torsional loads, and other deformations from the exterior upon the display unit composed of thin plate glass, because the member that protects the display unit is in a box shape. The display unit itself can be protected from damage even if rigidity is reduced because of a thinner profile. The metal structure is manufactured by thin plate pressing and sufficient strength can be maintained even if the thickness is low. Furthermore, the metal structure is configured as a frame part of the entire casing, the rigidity of the entire device can therefore be maintained by using this structure, and the mounting board and functional components other than the display unit can also be protected.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A portable device having a display unit, comprising: a metal plate including a recessed bottom portion and side walls cooperating with said recessed bottom portion to define a display unit receiving portion, a portion of one end of at least one of said side walls being curved to form a curved portion, and a rib structure integral with and extending outwardly from one of said side walls, said rib structure having an open u-shaped cross section; a disp…
