Portable information device

1. A portable information device comprising:

a first chassis member and a second chassis member, wherein an edge of the first chassis member and an edge of the second chassis member adjacent to the edge of the first chassis member are coupled to each other by a hinge mechanism so that the first chassis member and the second chassis member are foldable with respect to each other;

a display that is disposed at inner surfaces of both the first chassis member and the second chassis member and that is foldable in two;

a first support plate disposed at the inner surface of the first chassis member, wherein the first support plate supports a back surface of the display from a side of the first chassis member;

a second support plate disposed at the inner surface of the second chassis member, wherein the second support plate supports the back surface of the display from a side of the second chassis member;

a first support base that is attached to the inner surface of the first chassis member and has a front surface that supports the first support plate;

a second support base that is attached to the inner surface of the second chassis member and has a front surface that supports the second support plate; and

an adjustment mechanism located on the first support base or the second support base and configured to adjust an attachment position of the first support base relative to the inner surface of the first chassis member or an attachment position of the second support base relative to the inner surface of the second chassis member so that the front surface of the first support base is flush with the front surface of the second support base;

wherein the hinge mechanism includes a first hinge chassis fixed to the inner surface of the first chassis member, a second hinge chassis fixed to the inner surface of the second chassis member, and a hinge shaft rotatably coupling the first hinge chassis and the second hinge chassis to each other;

wherein the first hinge chassis is the first support base;

wherein the second hinge chassis is the second support base; and

wherein the adjustment mechanism is interposed between a back surface of the first hinge chassis and the inner surface of the first chassis member or between a back surface of the second hinge chassis and the inner surface of the second chassis member, and has adjustment screws configured to adjust at least one of a positional relationship between the back surface of the first hinge chassis and the inner surface of the first chassis member or a positional relationship between the back surface of the second hinge chassis and the inner surface of the second chassis member.

2. The portable information device according to claim 1 , wherein:

a plurality of the adjustment screws are located on the first support base or the second support base.

3. The portable information device according to claim 1 , wherein:

an end surface of the first support plate and an end surface of the second support plate that is opposed to the end surface of the first support plate are in contact with each other when the first chassis member and the second chassis member are opened in a flat plate shape.

4. The portable information device according to claim 1 , wherein:

the hinge mechanism includes a first hinge chassis fixed to the inner surface of the first chassis member, a second hinge chassis fixed to the inner surface of the second chassis member, and a pair of hinge shafts rotatably coupling the first hinge chassis and the second hinge chassis to each other,

wherein the first hinge chassis is the first support base, and

wherein the second hinge chassis is the second support base.

5. The portable information device according to claim 1 , wherein:

the hinge mechanism is disposed at each longitudinal end of edges of the first chassis member and the second chassis member.
