As shown in fig. 1 to 8, an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention mainly refers to a pluggable computer, a transformable computer, and the like, and includes a flat plate portion 1 having a display screen and a supporting portion 4 for supporting the flat plate portion 1, where the flat plate portion 1 can work in a separated state with respect to the supporting portion 4, and the flat plate portion 1 in this state is a tablet computer, and when the two portions need to be connected, the two portions are connected by a rotating supporting mechanism. The rotary supporting mechanism mainly comprises a rotating shaft 2 and a supporting connecting part 3, wherein the rotating shaft 2 is rotatably connected to the flat plate part 1, the supporting connecting part 3 is fixedly arranged on the rotating shaft 2, so that the supporting connecting part 3 can synchronously rotate along with the rotating shaft 2, the supporting connecting part 3 can be connected with a supporting part 4, the flat plate part 1 and the supporting part 4 are integrally connected, and the supporting connecting part 3 can also support the flat plate part 1 which is used independently on a table top, so that a user can use the flat plate part 1 independently, for example, watching videos, reading or using virtual keyboard input, more comfortably and conveniently. Meanwhile, as the supporting and connecting part 3 is arranged on the rotating shaft 2, a user can flexibly adjust the rotating angle of the supporting and connecting part 3, so that the display screen of the flat plate part 1 can be inclined and stopped at a plurality of angles, as shown in fig. 2-4, and the working effect of the electronic equipment is further improved.

The electronic equipment has dual forms and functions of a tablet computer and a notebook computer, can meet the diversified requirements of users on entertainment, high-efficiency office work, portability and the like, and enhances the practicability and competitiveness of products.

In order to further optimize the technical solution, in the electronic device provided in this embodiment, as shown in fig. 1 to 5, it is preferable that the support connection member 3 includes: a first structural member 31 fixedly fitted on the rotary shaft 2 so as to rotate synchronously with the rotary shaft 2; and a second structural member 32 connected to the first structural member 31, wherein the second structural member 32 can be driven by the rotating shaft 2 to rotate to a position contacting with a supporting surface (table top) to contact with the supporting surface, so as to support the flat plate portion 1, as shown in fig. 2 to 4. Further, it is also preferable that the first structural member 31 and the second structural member 32 are both rod-shaped members. In addition, on the premise of meeting the requirement of normal operation, the structure of the support connecting part 3 can be selected in various ways, and the structure is relatively simple, and can be better assembled with the flat plate part 1, so that the structure is taken as a preferable scheme of the embodiment.

Specifically, the supporting portion 4 is provided with a slot 5 capable of accommodating the second structural member 32, and the connection between the plate portion 1 and the supporting portion 4 can be realized through the insertion and engagement of the second structural member 32 and the slot 5, as shown in fig. 6 to 8. On the basis that the supporting and connecting member 3 has the above structure, the specific connection mode of the supporting and connecting member 3 and the supporting portion 4 can be selected in various ways, and the plugging and matching mode is adopted as the preferred connection mode of the present embodiment because the structure is simple, the operation is convenient, no additional connecting member is needed, and the electronic device can be switched from the tablet mode to the notebook mode quickly. Furthermore, the connection of the support connection member 3 and the support portion 4 may also be achieved by means of a screw connection, a bolt connection, or the like.

Preferably, the second structural member 32 is hinged to the first structural member 31, so that the second structural member 32 can be turned to open and close relative to the first structural member 31, as shown in fig. 5. The arrangement mode can flexibly change the form of the support connecting part 3 according to different use requirements so as to avoid the influence on other working forms (such as handheld forms) of the flat plate part 1 caused by the addition of the rotary support mechanism. Specifically, when the user holds the flat plate portion 1, the second structure member 32 may be turned over to be parallel to the first structure member 31, as shown in fig. 1, to close the supporting and connecting member 3, so as to avoid the inconvenience of the holding operation caused by the outward extension of the second structure member 32 relative to the flat plate portion 1, and when the flat plate portion 1 needs to be supported on a desktop, the second structure member 32 may be turned over to be perpendicular to the first structure member 31, to support the flat plate portion 1 in an inclined manner, as shown in fig. 2 to 4.

As shown in fig. 1 and 5, the first structural member 31 is further provided with a receiving groove 6 capable of receiving the second structural member 32, so that the second structural member 32 in the closed state can be received in the receiving groove 6. Because the light and thin performance of the flat plate part 1 has a large influence on the use effect when the flat plate part 1 is used alone, in order to further reduce the influence of the supporting and connecting part 3 on the volume of the flat plate part 1, it is preferable to further provide the accommodating groove 6 on the first structural member 31, and when the second structural member 32 is in a closed state relative to the first structural member 31, the whole second structural member 32 can be located inside the first structural member 31, so that the volume of the supporting and connecting part 3 is reduced, and the handheld operation is more convenient and easier.

In this embodiment, the holding groove further includes an attracting magnet 7 disposed in the holding groove 6 and applying an attracting force to the second structural member 32, as shown in fig. 5. The adsorption magnet 7 is arranged, so that the influence on the handheld operation caused by the fact that the second structural part 32 positioned in the accommodating groove 6 is accidentally moved out of the accommodating groove 6 can be avoided, and the working reliability of the electronic equipment is further improved.

More preferably, the number of the second structural members 32 connected to the first structural member 31 is plural, preferably two, and the two second structural members 32 are symmetrically disposed about a midpoint of the first structural member 31, as shown in fig. 1 and 5. The arrangement mode can enable the structural layout of the support connecting part 3 to be more reasonable, and the support effect on the flat plate part 1 to be more stable. Specifically, when the support connection member 3 adopts such a structure, the accommodating grooves 6 and the attracting magnets 7 are arranged in the number and positions corresponding to the second structural members 32, as shown in fig. 5.

As shown in fig. 5 and 6, the electronic apparatus further includes: a metal member 8 provided in the support portion 4; and a connecting magnet 9 arranged on the support connecting part 3, wherein the connecting magnet 9 can exert an adsorption force on the metal piece 8 to realize the fixed connection of the flat plate part 1 and the support part 4 through the adsorption of the metal piece 8. When the support connecting part 3 and the support part 4 are connected in an inserting manner, in order to better ensure the connection firmness and the support reliability of the plate part 1 and the support part 4, a connecting magnet 9 and a metal piece 8 are preferably arranged to fix the plate part 1 and the support part 4 in a connected state through mutual attraction of the two parts, so that the working effect of the electronic equipment in a notebook shape is ensured. Specifically, the connecting magnet 9 is preferably provided in the first structural member 31.

Specifically, the support connection component 3 is provided with a first communication interface 10 for communication connection with the display screen, and the support component 4 is provided with a second communication interface 11, as shown in fig. 1, 5 and 6, so that the second communication interface 11 can be in communication connection with the first communication interface 10 through a data line. In addition, under the condition of ensuring the normal operation of the electronic device, the tablet portion 1 and the supporting portion 4 can also be connected in a communication manner through a wireless connection.

In this embodiment, the supporting portion 4 may be a supporting base, or a host with a central processing unit, that is, the electronic device may be a tablet computer equipped with a detachable supporting base, or a deformable computer book, as shown in fig. 6 to 8.
