Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device including a first housing and second housing that are movable relative to one another such that the electronic device is transitionable between an open state and a closed state. The second housing includes first and second cover surfaces. In the open state, the first surface of the first housing may be visually exposed to an outside and in the closed state, the first cover surface may face the first surface and visually occludes the first housing surface. A first magnetic body may be disposed inside the first housing and may be positioned between the second surface and the display. A second magnetic body between the first and second cover surfaces may be positioned at a position to effect magnetic coupling of the first and second magnetic bodies in the closed state. A support coupling the second surface and the first magnetic body may be transitionable between shortened and expanded lengths.
