<p>The invention relates to portable electronic devices, particularly health-monitoring devices, and their casings. Such a device comprises a first case part and a second case part, which are arranged in the first position to lie tightly against each other, in order to protect the internal parts of the device, so that a compression joint is formed between them. The case parts are also arranged to slide in one direction relative to each other to a second position, in order to reveal at least one user-interface element. According to the invention, the direction of the said joint differs over its entire length essentially from the said sliding direction. The invention permits the manufacture of health-monitoring devices that are more tightly sealed and user-friendly than previously.</p> |
