Abstract
A mobile terminal is provided. The mobile terminal may include a window that at least partially covers the terminal body and is made of a light transmitting material, a non-transparent portion covering a portion of a surface of the window, a transparent portion provided within the non-transparent portion on the window to form a front image, and a front pattern plate mounted on a case of the mobile terminal to at least partially expose the pattern through the transparent portion.
Claims23
A mobile terminal, comprising:
- a body;
- a window coupled to the body to at least partially cover the body, wherein the window is made of a light transmitting material;
- a non-transparent portion covering a predetermined portion of the window;
- a transparent portion provided within the non-transparent portion, the transparent portion defining a front image;
- and
- a front pattern plate coupled in the body such that a pattern formed on the front pattern plate is at least partially exposed through the transparent portion, and
- wherein the non-transparent portion comprises a printed region that extends along an edge of the window, and the transparent portion comprises a non-printed region within the printed region.
A mobile terminal, comprising:
- a body including a display;
- a window coupled to the body and covering the display;
- a printing layer printed on a rear surface of the window facing the display and forming a bezel surrounding the display;
- a transparent portion provided within the printing layer and defining a front image;
- and
- a first pattern plate coupled to the rear surface of the window such that the pattern is at least partially exposed through the transparent portion provided in the printing layer.
A mobile terminal, comprising:
- a case that defines an external appearance of a body of the mobile terminal;
- an exposed region formed in a predetermined region of a first side of the case, the exposed region having a predetermined shape to expose a predetermined internal portion of the body, and the exposed region defined by a rear opening formed;
- and
- a pattern plate provided at an inner portion of the case, wherein the pattern plate at least partially overlaps the exposed region so as to be visible from an outside of the body, and wherein a material of the pattern plate is different from that of the case, and
- wherein the pattern plate a first region supported by the case, and a second region that protrudes from a surface of the first region and is exposed to an outside of the case through the rear opening.
A mobile terminal, comprising:
- a case that defines an external appearance of a body of the mobile terminal;
- at least one exposed region formed in a predetermined region of a corresponding side of the case, the at least one exposed region having a predetermined shape to expose a predetermined internal portion of the body;
- and
- at least one pattern plate provided at an inner portion of the case and at least partially overlapping the corresponding at least one exposed region so as to be visible from an outside of the body, wherein a material of the at least one pattern plate is different from that of the case, and
- wherein the at least one expose region comprises:
- a first exposed region provided within a printed portion of a window that extends across a display provided in the case, wherein the window is made of a light transmitting material, the printed portion forms a non-transparent region on a predetermined portion of the window, and the first exposed region comprises a non-transparent portion provided within the non-transparent region;
- and
- a second exposed region comprising an opening formed in a side of the case opposite the window.
A mobile terminal, comprising:
- a body;
- a window coupled to the body to at least partially cover the body, wherein the window is made of a light transmitting material;
- a non-transparent portion covering a predetermined portion of the window;
- a transparent portion provided within the non-transparent portion, the transparent portion defining a front image;
- and
- a front pattern plate coupled in the body such that a pattern formed on the front pattern plate is at least partially exposed through the transparent portion, and
- wherein the body comprises a case defining an external appearance of the body, wherein the case comprises a rear opening formed in a rear surface thereof defining a rear image, the mobile terminal further comprising a rear pattern plate coupled to the case at a position corresponding to the rear opening, wherein the rear pattern plate comprises a first region supported by the case, and a second region that protrudes from a surface of the first region in a shape of the rear image and is exposed to an outside of the case through the rear opening.
