A SWIVEL HINGE MODULE AND MOBILE COMMUNICATION TERMINAL WITH SWIVEL HINGE TYPE KEYPAD

摘要

A swivel hinge module and a mobile communication terminal having a keypad capable of being rotated by the swivel hinge module are provided to enable the keypad to be rotated at an angle of 90 degrees so as for the keypad to be a long width when a user enjoys a game, thereby eliminating the inconveniences of performing the game by operating buttons in a state that the keypad is fixed and doubling the feeling of movement by installing a linear speaker in the lower part of the keypad. A swivel hinge module comprises the followings: a rotating member(10) of which a through-part(12) is projectedly formed; supporting members(20) which are movably equipped within a receiving part(11) individually formed in both sides of the through part(12) of the rotating member(10); elastic members(30) which elastically support the supporting members(20); and a fixing member(40) which has a through-part(41) connected to the through-part(12) of the rotating member(10) and makes the rotating member(10) rotate.
