SLIDE MECHANISM FOR SLIDE-TYPE PORTABLE TERMINAL DEVICES

摘要

An exemplary slide mechanism (100) includes a rear cover (10), a front cover (20), and a magnetic assembly (80) connected to the rear cover and the front cover. The front cover is slidably attached to the rear cover. Each of the at least one magnetic assembly includes a first magnetic member (44) and a second magnetic member (74). A magnetic force created between the first and second magnetic members forces the front cover sliding relative to the rear cover. The magnetic members are arranged such that the height of the space occupied by the magnetic members is less than an arithmetic sum of the height of each of the magnetic members
