Abstract:
1. A portable radio device comprising: a first enclosure; a second enclosure; a first hinge section rotatably joining the first enclosure to the second enclosure along one axis; a second hinge section rotatably joining the first enclosure to the second enclosure along another axis orthogonal to the one axis; a first antenna element; a second antenna element in the second enclosure; a first circuit board in the first enclosure; a second circuit board in the second enclosure; a feeding section for feeding power from the first circuit board to the first hinge section; a cable section electrically connecting the first circuit board and the second circuit board for exchanging signal between the first circuit board and the second circuit board; and a connection section connecting the first circuit board to the cable section, wherein each of the first hinge section and the second hinge section are formed from a conductive member; the feeding section and the first hinge section are electrically connected together; the second antenna element and the second hinge section are electrically connected together; the first hinge section and the second hinge section are electrically connected together by way of the first antenna element; and the feeding section and the connection section are separated from each other by a distance of 1/20 or more of a wavelength corresponding to an operating frequency.
