Embodiment
At first see also Fig. 2, the portable electronic devices in the present embodiment is a notebook computer, and it comprises a base 10, a display unit 20 and a body 30.Wherein, base 10, display unit 20 and body 30 articulate mutually, display unit 20 and body 30 can be rotated with respect to base 10, the time spent can not kept base 10 and is statically placed on the plane, and make display unit 20 and body 30 form the mode of taking in (as shown in Figure 7) of erect type, perhaps also can amount to (as shown in Figure 8) mutually with body 30 and body 30, carry to save the space and the person of being easy to use with base 10, display unit 20.
For example, described body 30 can comprise an input block and a processing unit (including motherboard and central processing unit), and wherein input block for example is a keyboard or Trackpad, and 20 of described display units for example are a LCD screen.As shown in Figure 2, described display unit 20 and body 30 mainly are to articulate (pin-joint mechanism 40 that only shows the right side in Fig. 2) with base 10 by the position respectively at the pin-joint mechanism 40 of notebook computer both sides, when desire is used notebook computer, base 10 can be statically placed on the desktop, and make display unit 20 and body 30 launch an angle; Otherwise, when finishing to use, then base 10, display unit 20 and body 30 can be amounted to mutually to save space (shown in Fig. 7,8).
Then see also Fig. 3 A, 3B, pin-joint mechanism 40 in present embodiment comprises a fixture 41, one first tumbler 42 and one second tumbler 43, described fixture 41 has the fixed part 412 that a pivot 411 and is fixed in pivot 411 centre positions.Shown in Fig. 3 A and 3B, fixed part 412 is to be surrounded on pivot 411 outer surfaces and radially to protrude along pivot 411, wherein pivot 411 is passed in the central perforation 421,431 of first, second tumbler 42,43 respectively, and is articulated in the opposition side of fixed part 412 mutually.What need to specify is, because first, second tumbler the 42, the 43rd, the position is at the opposition side of fixed part 412, and also therefore i.e. actual contact not between the two can not interfere when rotating mutually.
Seeing also Fig. 4,5 again, is that the fixed part 412 with pin-joint mechanism 40 is fixed on the base 10 during assembling, and 422,432 of first, second rotation sections on first, second tumbler 42,43 connect display unit 20 and body 30 (as shown in Figure 5) respectively.Thus, display unit 20 and body 30 can be by pin-joint mechanism 40 and with respect to base 10 rotations, wherein portion 412 separates because first, second rotation section 422,432 is fixed, therefore can not rotate together because of interfering mutually first, second rotation section 422,432, and the person of being easy to use adjusts the angle of display unit 20 or body 30 respectively.
See also Fig. 5, on the back surface of described base 10, be provided with a connectivity port 11, described connectivity port 11 can utilize lead (not icon) to pass pin-joint mechanism 40 and then electrically connect with body 30, it can comprise USB, PS/2 or D-sub connector, in order to an external peripheral unit (for example printer or scanner).The present invention can prevent that wire rod from being pullled, and then can significantly promote the convenience in the use by connectivity port 11 is arranged on the base 10 when body 30 rotations.
Then see also Fig. 6, in another preferred embodiment, first, second tumbler 42,43 of described pin-joint mechanism 40 also can be arranged at the same side of fixed part 412.As shown in Figure 6, described first tumbler 42 is between the fixed part 412 and second tumbler 43, and is provided with a pad R in a side of first tumbler 42; In particular, first, second tumbler 42,43 in present embodiment is sheathed on first articulated section 4111 and second articulated section 4112 on the pivot 411 respectively, wherein first articulated section 4111 has one first diameter D, 4112 of second articulated sections have one second diameter d, correspond respectively to the internal diameter of first, second tumbler 42,43, and D d.Thus, first, second tumbler 42,43 can not be in contact with one another when rotating and produce interference, is not easy to use the angle that the person adjusts display unit 20 or body 30 respectively equally.
In sum, the invention provides a kind of pin-joint mechanism, can be widely used in one has in the electronic installation of base, not only can avoid body and display unit to produce interference when rotated, simultaneously by the connectivity port being set in the base back surface, can prevent that body from pullling wire rod when rotated, and then can promote the convenience in the use significantly.
Though the present invention discloses as above with described preferred embodiment; yet it is not in order to limit the present invention; any person skilled in the art person without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; when can making all changes that is equal to and retouching, thus protection scope of the present invention when look the application claims defined is as the criterion.
