Abstract:
A folding electronic apparatus, comprising:a box-shaped main body having a main body front end wall, a main body rear end wall and a main body top wall defining a top surface main body area and extending to and between the main body front end wall and the main body rear end wall with the main body front end wall and main body rear end wall connected perpendicularly to the main body top wall; a box-shaped first frame defining a first frame surface area and pivotally mounted to the rear end wall of the main body to move to and between an open position wherein the first frame is angularly disposed away from the main body and a closed position wherein the first frame is disposed with the main body in a facially opposing relationship; and a box-shaped second frame having a second frame front end wall, a second frame rear end wall and a second frame top wall defining a top surface second frame area, the second frame top wall extending to and between the second frame front end wall and the second frame rear end wall with the second frame front end wall and the second frame rear end wall connected perpendicularly to the second frame top wall and operably connected to the main body in a manner such that the second frame rear end wall and the main body front end wall are in facial contact with each other and the main body top wall and the second frame top wall are disposed in a common plane wherein when the first frame is in the closed position and the second frame is connected to the main body, the first frame overlaps the main body and the second frame such that the first frame surface area covers both the top surface main body area and the top surface second frame area in a facially-opposing relationship.
