<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a portable electronic apparatus having a first case, a second case, and a biaxial hinge mechanism, and capable of easily preventing positional misalignment between tip parts of both cases without relying only on dimensional precision of components of the biaxial hinge mechanism. <P>SOLUTION: The portable electronic apparatus has a hinge 4 for interconnecting a first and a second cases so that they can be opened and closed about a first rotation axis X and at the same time interconnecting the first and second cases so that they can pivot about a second rotation axis Y. The hinge 4 has a first case fixing component 51 fixed to the first case, a first connection component 52 connected to the first case fixing component 51 so as to be rotatable about the second rotation axis Y, and a second connection component 61 connected to the second case so as to be rotatable about the first rotation axis X. The first connection component 52 and the second connection component 61 are connected to each other with a screw. Degree of tightening of the screw for connecting the first connection component 52 and the second connection component 61 together can be changed when the first and second cases are closed by folding them about the first rotation axis X. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT</p> |
