Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a hingeless folding mobile station where the inconvenience accompanying a hinge member is removed. SOLUTION: The mobile station includes at least two halves that are separate enclosures each holding a portion of the mobile station's internal components. A flexible connector connects the components housed in one section of the enclosure with the internal components housed in the other. The two halves of the mobile station are held together by a retainer such as an elastomeric band that is stretched around the outer end of each section and around a series of return points located near the inner end of each the mobile station enclosure sections. A series of grooves or extensions are formed in various locations about the mobile station in order to retain the elastomeric band in place. When in place, the elastomeric band has been stretched from its normal resting length so that a tension force is constantly applied. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
