1. A portable apparatus comprising:
- a hinge coupling an end of an operation-side casing having an operation part and an end of a display-side casing having a main display part with each other for pivotable movement thereof about a first axis;
an LED display panel arranged in a display window formed on a casing surface of said display-side casing other than a surface provided with the main display part and which has a plurality of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) matrix-arranged in a plane;
a display control unit to control display contents of said plurality of light-emitting diodes of said LED display panel on the basis of user-created graphic pattern input display data input through said operation part; and
a main control unit to control both said main display part and said LED display panel, to register said user-created graphic pattern input display data input through said operation part, and to output said user-created graphic pattern input display data displayed on said LED display panel to said display control unit, whereinsaid operation part and said main display part are respectively provided on surfaces of said operation-side casing and said display-side casing which face each other in their closed positions;
said LED display panel is provided on a surface of said display side casing opposed to the surface provided with the main display part; and
said display-side casing is configured to be rotatable by at least approximately 180°
about a rotation axis perpendicular to the core of the first axis of the hinge.

Abstract
A portable terminal capable of display of high luminance with low power consumption and configured to be provided with an LED display panel having a plurality of light-emitting diodes matrix-arranged in a display window formed on the surface of a casing accommodating electronic components and to control display of the light-emitting diodes of the LED display panel with a display control unit. The portable terminal performs display of high luminance with low power consumption with the matrix-arranged light-emitting diodes.

9. A portable apparatus comprising:
-
a hinge coupling an end of an operation-side casing having an operation part and an end of a display-side casing having a main display part with each other for pivotable movement thereof; an LED display panel which is arranged in a display window formed on a casing surface of said display-side casing other than a surface provided with the main display part and which has a plurality of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) matrix-arranged in a plane; a display control unit to control display contents of said plurality of light-emitting diodes of said LED display panel on the basis of user-created graphic pattern input display data input through said operation part; a main control unit to control both said main display part and said LED display panel, to register said user-created graphic pattern input display data input through said operation part as graphic pattern input data, and to output said user-created graphic patterns input display data displayed on said LED display panel to said display control unit; and operation keys operable in a state that the operation-side casing and the display-side casing are in their closed position, wherein the main control unit switches the LED display between a power on state and a power off state by operation of one of said operation keys, and switches between graphic patterns of said registered user-created graphic pattern input data as the display contents of the LED display panel by operation of another one of said operation keys. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13)
