Disclosed is a sliding module for a mobile terminal, which includes a sliding plate having a guide rail with curving points in first and second sections adjacent to each other in a longitudinal direction; a guide plate connected to the sliding plate to support the slidable movement of the sliding plate in a longitudinal direction; a pair of rollers linearly movable on the guide plate to be in rolling contact with the guide rail; and an elastic means for generating an elastic force that makes the rollers move in a direction towards an end of the first or second section. The sliding module connects a pair of housings in such a manner that one can slidably move on the other in both upward and downward directions.
