ABSTRACT:
A tilting apparatus is provided which can make a moving section perform a tilting operation with stability or in which a moving section can exercise its functionality as expected, and an electronic apparatus equipped with the tilting apparatus is provided. In a tilting apparatus, with first and second tilting operations, one side of a first panel holder is angularly displaced with respect to the other side from a reference position. This can prevent the first panel holder from making any extra operation other than the first and second tilting operations with respect to a device body. Unlike any existing technology, in the invention, even when the first and second tilting operations are put into action, a first chassis is not displaced against the device body unless it is desired, e.g., displaced along front, and juts from the device body, thereby favorably leading to the operation with stability.
