PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a hinge as compact as possible for a portable terminal which has both a function for horizontally revolving a second casing to a first casing and a function for opening/closing the second casing to the first casing and no leakage of lubricating oil particularly in a foldable portable terminal. SOLUTION: The hinge for connecting the first casing and the second casing is composed of a revolving hinge part, which revolvably connects the first casing to the second casing, and an opening/closing hinge part which openably/closably connects the second casing to the first casing. The revolving hinge part has a fixing member 5 mounted to the first casing and a revolving member 7 mounted to the fixing member in a state that the revolution is controlled via a first cam mechanism. The opening/closing hinge part has an opening/closing member 16, which is provided to the revolving member and connects the end part of the second casing of being rotatably mounted in a state that the rotation is controlled in the direction perpendicular to the revolution direction of the revolving hinge via a second cam mechanism.
