Abstract: A mobile terminal includes a display unit, a front case configured to be combined with the display unit using a front side of the front case, a main board configured to be combined with a rear side of the front case, a rear case configured to be combined with a rear side of the main board, a boss in which a internal screw thread formed on both a left side and a right side of the front case and the internal screw thread heading a rear side is formed, a connection hole formed on a position corresponding to the internal screw thread of the rear case, a screw configured to be connected with the internal screw thread in a manner of passing through the connection hole, a boss bump configured to be positioned at an outer circumstance of the boss and a boss accommodation part configured to be formed on both a left side and a right side of the main board and correspond to a shape of the boss and a shape of the boss bump. It is able to reduce thickness of the mobile terminal by omitting a frame. And, it is able to prevent the case from making a gap in a horizontal direction via a stable connection structure. Moreover, it is also able to prevent the front case and the rear case from being separated from each other via the stable connection structure.

Abstract: A mobile terminal comprises: a first frame; a second frame configured to make a sliding movement in a first direction with regard to the first frame, or in a second direction opposite to the first direction; a rotating gear coupled to the second frame to be able to rotate around an axis of rotation extending in a third direction perpendicular to the first direction; a flexible display unit comprising a first area coupled to the front surface of the first frame and a second area which is bent while surrounding the rotating gear; a first flexible rack gear extending from the first frame in the first direction, the first flexible rack gear being positioned between the flexible display unit and the second frame and being bent while surrounding the rotating gear; and a second flexible rack gear coupled to the back surface of the flexible display unit so as to engage with the rotating gear and rotate accordingly. When expanded, the mobile terminal can be stably supported, thereby solving the problem of sagging of the flexible display unit, or the problem of an error occurring during a touch input.
