ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18231813 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an electronic device with two housings, one containing a display unit and the other containing an input unit and an antenna unit. The two housings are connected and can rotate relative to each other.

  • The first housing, which contains the display unit, has a support plate made of metal that acts as the back surface of the housing and supports the display.
  • The second housing, which contains the input unit and antenna unit, is also made of metal.
  • A connection part allows the two housings to be rotatably connected to each other.
  • The first housing also includes a communication path member made of resin, which is located on the support plate.
  • The communication path member is positioned in a closed state, facing at least a part of the antenna unit in the second housing.
  • This arrangement helps to optimize the communication between the antenna unit and other components of the electronic device.
