Portable terminal

摘要

An object of the invention is to provide a slide-type mobile terminal having two slidable housings wherein a predetermined component mounted on one housing can be mounted without being limited by the thickness of the one housing. A mobile terminal includes an upper housing ( 1 ) and a lower housing ( 2 ) that can be mutually slid for enabling the mobile terminal to enter either of a closed state in which the upper housing ( 1 ) and the lower housing ( 2 ) overlap each other as a whole and an open state in which the upper housing ( 1 ) is slid with respect to the lower housing ( 2 ) from the closed state. The upper housing ( 1 ) has a camera section ( 6 ) having one part projected to the lower housing ( 2 ) and a different part embedded in the upper housing ( 1 ). The lower housing ( 2 ) has a concave part that can house the convex part of the camera section ( 6 ) when the mobile terminal is placed in the closed state from the open state.
