Patent ID: 7848111

Claim:
A slide type electronic device, comprising: a first device body having a top face, first and second outer edges proximate and connected to each other, a first input interface provided on said top face and proximate to said first outer edge, and a second input interface provided on said top face and proximate to said second outer edge; a second device body stacked on said first device body and having a panel unit and a bottom face; and a slide mechanism including a slide slot provided in one of said top face and said bottom face, and a projecting pin unit provided on the other of said top face and said bottom face and slidable along said slide slot, said slide mechanism enabling said second device body to selectively slide relative to said first device body substantially along a first direction so as to permit access to said first input interface, and along a second direction so as to permit access to said second input interface, wherein said first outer edge is a front edge of said first device body, and said second outer edge is one of left and right edges of said first device body, said slide slot including a first slide slot segment that extends in a left-right direction, and a second slide slot segment that extends generally in a front-rear direction and that has a rear end connected to said first slide slot segment and wherein said slide slot is provided in said bottom face of said second device body, and further includes a third slide slot segment spaced apart from and disposed forwardly of said first slide slot segment, and a fourth slide slot segment connected to said first and third slide slot segments, said second device body being slidable leftward and rightward relative to said first device body to permit access to said second input interface when said projecting pin unit is located in one of said first and third slide slot segments, said first input interface being accessible when said projecting pin unit is located in said third slide slot segment.
