The limiting wall 24 has a first limiting position 241 and a second limiting position 242, and preferably, a protruding portion 243 is further disposed between the first limiting position 241 and the second limiting position 242, the protruding portion 243 protrudes out of the fixing base 2 relatively, and the first limiting position 241 and the second limiting position 242 are both recessed into the fixing base 2 relatively, so that the first limiting position 241, the protruding portion 243, and the second limiting position 242 are combined into a wavy undulating structure.

As shown in fig. 2 and fig. 6, when the frame body 1 rotates about the pivot 11 as an axis relative to the electronic device 900 to be unfolded, the frame body 1 is first forced by the protruding portion 243 and then is limited at the second limiting position 242, so as to limit the frame body 1 in the unfolded state.

As shown in fig. 3 and 7, when the frame body 1 rotates reversely relative to the electronic device 900 to be folded, the frame body 1 is first forced by the protruding portion 243 and then limited at the first limiting position 241, so as to limit the frame body 1 at the folded state. It should be noted that, as shown in fig. 1, a locking member 4 may be further disposed on the electronic device 900, so that when the frame body 1 is folded, the frame body 1 is detachably locked by the locking member 4, so that the frame body 1 can be further limited to the folded state.

Preferably, the frame body 1 may be a U-shaped frame body (see fig. 1), and the two ends of the U-shaped frame body are the pivoting members 11, so that the two ends of the U-shaped frame body can elastically abut against the limiting walls 24 of the fixing bases 2, respectively. Therefore, when the frame body 1 moves between the first limiting position 241 and the second limiting position 242, the frame body elastically contracts due to the protruding portion 243 and elastically extends due to the first limiting position 241 or the second limiting position 242, so as to have better limiting strength and operation feeling.
