Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
177 words
A portable apparatus comprising: a display unit; a base means for pivotally supporting the display unit, the base means having an upper surface, a recess within the upper surface and a first torsion bar stopper within the base means, the recess being defined by a pair of side walls, the side walls having a first connecting means for connecting and rotating the display unit; and a hinge means for connecting the display unit with the base means, the hinge means including a second connecting means, connected at the first connecting means, for pivotally rotating the display unit, a second torsion bar stopper within the hinge means and a torsion bar having a first and a second end portion, the torsion bar passing through the first and second connecting means, the first end portion of the torsion bar being supported by the first torsion bar stopper and the second end portion of the torsion bar being supported by the second torsion bar stopper, rotation of the torsion bar being prevented by the first and second torsion bar stopper.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
177 words
A portable apparatus comprising: a display unit; a base means for pivotally supporting the display unit, the base means having an upper surface, a recess within the upper surface and a first torsion bar stopper within the base means, the recess being defined by a pair of side walls, the side walls having a first connecting means for connecting and rotating the display unit; and a hinge means for connecting the display unit with the base means, the hinge means including a second connecting means, connected at the first connecting means, for pivotally rotating the display unit, a second torsion bar stopper within the hinge means and a torsion bar having a first and a second end portion, the torsion bar passing through the first and second connecting means, the first end portion of the torsion bar being supported by the first torsion bar stopper and the second end portion of the torsion bar being supported by the second torsion bar stopper, rotation of the torsion bar being prevented by the first and second torsion bar stopper.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
49 words
A portable apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the display unit including a third connecting means for pivotally connecting the hinge means at a lower end of the display unit, the hinge means including a fourth connecting means for pivotally connecting the display unit at the third connecting means.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
73 words
A portable apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the first end of the torsion bar including a hook portion for preventing the rotation of the torsion bar within the hinge means, and the second end of the torsion bar including a flattened portion, the first torsion bar stopper including a rectangular hole for holding the second end of the torsion bar and preventing the rotation of the torsion bar within the base means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
48 words
A portable apparatus according to claim 3, wherein the hinge means including a hinge cover, a hinge base and a screw means for fixing between the hinge base and the hinge cover and fixing the hook portion of the torsion around the screw means within the hinge means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
60 words
A portable apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the first connecting means including a cylindrical boss having a first circular hole, the second connecting means including a second circular hole for covering the cylindrical boss, whereby the hinge means and the display unit rotating around the cylindrical boss and the torsion bar passing through the first and second circular holes.
