Semi-automatically sliding mobile terminal

A mobile terminal, comprising:

• a first main body;
• a second main body to slide on an upper side of the first main body;
• a hinge unit comprising a coupler coupled to a lower side of the second main body and a spring unit compressing and expanding from the coupler in a lateral direction;
• and
• a guide unit coupled to a lower side of the first main body and comprising a guide line having a curved line, the curved line comprising an ascending curved line, a crest, and a descending curved line that are formed in a longitudinal direction;
• wherein the spring unit compresses and expands along the guide line during the movement of the second main body.

A mobile terminal, comprising:

• a first main body;
• a hinge unit comprising a coupler coupled to an upper side of the first main body and a spring unit that can be compressed and expanded in a lateral direction;
• a second main body to slide on the upper side of the first main body;
• and
• a guide unit coupled to a lower side of the second main body, the guide unit comprising a U-shaped protrusion wherein opposite inner sides of the U-shaped protrusion are mirror images of each other, each inner side comprising a peak between a first valley and a second valley and,
• wherein the spring unit compresses and expands along the opposite inner sides of the U-shaped protrusion during movement of the second main body.
