Abstract
A mobile terminal having a terminal main body including a front case forming an internal area including a submergence area into which water is introduced and a waterproof area into which water is blocked from being introduced, and an internal frame; a first unit including a key module mounted in the terminal main body, and generating a control command when a pressing occurs, the key module being positioned in the submergence area and moving due to an external force; a second unit positioned in the waterproof area, and when the pressing occurs, generates a signal; an elastic deformation layer of which a portion is elastically deformed due to movement of the first unit, so the second unit is pressed by the first unit; and a waterproof layer attaching the elastic deformation layer and the front case so partitioning results in the submergence area and the waterproof area.
