Claim:
A folder type mobile terminal, comprising: an upper cover; a lower cover attached to the upper cover and configured to receive a display module therein; and a display protecting member configured to be fitted at an inner surface of the lower cover and to cover an outer surface of the display module so as to protect the display module from an external force, wherein the display protecting member comprises a lower portion and a first supporting rib formed extended upwardly a predetermined height and width from the lower portion so as to cover a circumferential surface of the display module and wherein a first air gap is maintained between an upper surface of the first supporting rib and a lower surface of the upper cover, wherein the lower surface of the upper cover deflects through the air gap when an external impact is imposed on the upper cover, the upper surface of the first supporting rib arranged to contact the lower surface of the deflecting upper cover to prevent the lower surface of the deflecting upper cover from contacting the display module, and wherein a second air gap is maintained between all areas of the upper surface of the display module and the lower surface of the upper cover when the upper and lower covers of the mobile terminal are attached.
