Abstract

In order to satisfy a demand for various shapes of windows of a mobile terminal and manufacture a mobile terminal with a low price, provided is a mobile terminal comprising a display panel and a window assembly disposed on the front surface of the display panel, wherein the window assembly comprises: an outer window forming a front outer appearance; an inner window disposed on the rear surface of the outer window while having a space between the outer window and the inner window; and a resin disposed in the space to fix the outer window to the inner window.

Claims (20)

1. A mobile terminal, comprising:

a display panel; and

a window assembly provided to a front side of the display panel, the window assembly comprising:

an outer window forming a front exterior;

an inner window provided to a rear side of the outer window in a manner of forming a space apart from the outer window; and

a resin provided to the space to fix the outer window and the inner window thereto,

wherein in a vertical or horizontal cross section of the window assembly, a curvature of the outer window is different from a curvature of the inner window.

2. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein in the vertical or horizontal cross section of the window assembly, a vertical distance from the outer window to the inner window at edges of the vertical or horizontal cross section is different from a vertical distance from the outer window to the inner window at a middle of the vertical or horizontal cross section.

3. The mobile terminal of claim 2 , the outer window comprising:

a flat front part; and

a bending part forming a lateral side in a manner that top, bottom, left and right sides of the front part are bent on boundaries of the front part, respectively.

4. The mobile terminal of claim 2 , wherein each of the outer and inner windows has a 4-side bending shape.

5. The mobile terminal of claim 4 , wherein a boundary of the outer window is aligned with a boundary of the inner window, and

wherein a sealing part is further provided to a region in which the boundary of the outer window and the boundary of the inner window meet each other.

6. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein each of a thickness of the outer window and a thickness of the inner window is uniform.

7. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein a front side of the outer window and a rear side of the inner window are polished, and

wherein the outer window, the resin and the inner window have the same refractive index.

8. The mobile terminal of claim 7 , further comprising:

a colored print layer covering a periphery of the display panel,

wherein the print layer is formed on the rear side of the inner window.
