Antenna mounting for electronic devices
First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising:
- a display casing, the display casing comprising;
a conductive resin region in a central portion of the display casing;
a nonconductive resin region forming a peripheral portion of the display casing substantially surrounding the conductive resin region, the nonconductive resin region having an antenna mounting space disposed therein;
wherein a joint between the nonconductive resin region and the conductive resin region forms a plurality of curves; and
a display module accommodated in the display casing;
an antenna disposed in the antenna mounting space; and
a system casing rotatably coupled to the display casing.

Abstract
The invention broadly contemplates an electronic apparatus that provides improved antenna characteristics, while maintaining a thin size and light weight. The electronic apparatus of the present invention includes a display casing having a nonconductive resin region and a conductive resin region in a bottom surface thereof; a display module accommodated in the display casing; an antenna disposed in the nonconductive resin region; and a system casing accommodating a wireless module connected to the antenna. By disposing the antenna in the nonconductive resin region formed in the bottom surface of the display casing, it is possible to secure high radio wave sensitivity while preventing an antenna mounting portion from being exposed to the outside of the display casing. The casing structure of the electronic apparatus does not become thick because of butt joining even when the joint portions are in a projection area of an LCD module.
