When the first flow guiding surface 31 of the first air guiding member 30 is correspondingly accommodated in the first air outlet 111, the first air outlet 111 is covered and closed, and the air in the body 10 cannot be discharged from the first air outlet 111; when the first diversion surface 31 of the first air guide 30 is far away from the first air outlet 111, the first air outlet 111 is opened, and the air in the machine body 10 can be exhausted from the first air outlet 111.

Referring to fig. 2 to 6, in an embodiment, the second air guiding element 40 includes a second guiding surface 41, a second pivot 42 and a second vertical surface 43. The second guiding surface 41 is substantially a long rectangular sheet. The second pivot 42 is disposed at one end of the second guiding surface 41 and pivotally connected to the machine body 10. When the second air guiding element 40 is pivotally connected to the machine body 10 by the second pivot 42 at one end of the second guiding surface 41, the other end of the second guiding surface 41 extends toward the second side 14 of the machine body 10.

Referring to fig. 2 to 6, in detail, the second pivot 42 is pivotally disposed on the inner wall 112 of the body 10 near the bottom 12 and near the first side 13, so that the second air guide 40 lies flat against the bottom 12 or forms an included angle with respect to the bottom 12. The second vertical surface 43 is a sheet perpendicular to the second guiding surface 41, and the second vertical surfaces 43 are respectively disposed on two opposite sides of the second guiding surface 41.

Referring to fig. 2 to 6, in an embodiment, the number of the linking members 50 may be two, and the two linking members 50 are respectively pivoted between the first air guide member 30 and the second air guide member 40. Furthermore, each linkage member 50 includes a first end 51 and a second end 52 opposite to the first end 51, the first end 51 of each linkage member 50 is pivoted to the first vertical surface 33 at the two ends of the first air guide member 30, and the second end 52 of each linkage member 50 is pivoted to the second vertical surface 43 at the two ends of the second air guide member 40. In addition, the first end 51 of each linking member 50 is pivoted between the two sides of the first vertical surface 33 relative to the first guiding surface 31, and the second end 52 of each linking member 50 is pivoted between the two sides of the second vertical surface 43 relative to the second guiding surface 41.

Referring to fig. 4 and 6, in an embodiment, the first vertical surface 33 of the first air guide 30 has an abutting concave portion 331, when the first air guide 30 is in a state where the first vertical surface 33 is accommodated in the machine body 10, the second flow guiding surface 41 of the second air guide 40 is flatly attached to the bottom surface 12 of the machine body 10, and the abutting concave portion 331 of the first vertical surface 33 of the first air guide 30 abuts against the second pivot 42 of the second air guide 40. The first air guide 30 is in a stable closed state. In this state, the hot air inside the machine body 10 can pass through the first air guide 30 from the gaps between the bars 34 of the first air guide 30 and be exhausted from the second side 14 of the machine body 10 without being blocked by the second air guide 40.

In an embodiment, to change the discharging direction of the heat dissipating gas discharged from the interior of the body 10, in an embodiment where the body 10 is assembled with the display 20, the display 20 is opened with respect to the body 10 and is away from the top surface 11 of the body 10, and then the user can turn the first guiding surface 31 of the first air guiding member 30 to drive the first air guiding member 30 to pivot outward of the body 10. When the first air guide 30 pivots from the top surface 11 to the outside of the body 10, the first air guide 30 disengages from the first air outlet 111 to open the first air outlet 111, and the first air guide 30 pulls the second air guide 40 through the linking member 50, and the second air guide 40 rotates around the second pivot 42 as a rotation axis to form an included angle with the bottom surface 12. When the second air guide 40 forms an included angle with the bottom surface 12, the second air guide 40 is blocked between the first side 13 and the second side 14 of the body 10, so as to block the air in the body 10 from flowing to the second air outlet 141 of the second side 14. The gas is forced to flow along the first diversion surface 31 of the first air guide 30 to the first air outlet 111. The airflow in the body 10 is redirected and discharged in the direction toward the user.

Therefore, when the environment space of the body 10 of the electronic device is limited and the air on the second side 14 of the body 10 cannot be smoothly exhausted to hinder the heat dissipation effect, the airflow direction can be changed by the first air guide 30, so that the air exhausted from the body 10 is exhausted toward the top surface 11, thereby ensuring the heat dissipation effect of the body 10 and maintaining the operation performance of the body 10.

For example, when the electronic device is used in a low-temperature environment, the user can turn the first air guide member 30 to change the airflow direction, so that the hot air generated during the operation of the electronic device can be exhausted from the top surface 11 toward the user. Thus, the hands of the keyboard placed on the top surface 11 can feel warm air flow, the hand stiffness of the user caused by cold can be relieved, and the body feeling comfort level of the surrounding environment of the electronic device can be improved.

In one embodiment, the electronic device may further comprise a gas reaction device 60, wherein the gas reaction device 60 interacts with the gas to generate different effects. Specifically, the gas reaction device 60 may be a negative ion generator, a fragrance device, or other device that interacts with the gas to produce different effects. Here, the gas reaction device 60 is disposed on a surface of the second flow guide surface 41 of the second gas guide 40 close to the top surface 11.

In this way, in the closed state of the first air guide 30, the gas in the machine body 10 flowing through the second guiding surface 41 of the second air guide 40 lying on the bottom surface 12 passes through the gas reaction device 60, so that the gas in the machine body 10 reacts with the gas reaction device 60 and is then exhausted.

In the opened state of the first air guide 30, the air flow in the body 10 also flows through the second guiding surface 41 of the second air guide 40 inclined to the bottom surface 12, so that the air in the body 10 reacts with the gas reaction device 60 and is then discharged.

That is, in the embodiment where the gas reaction device 60 is disposed on the second flow guiding surface 41 of the second air guiding member 40, the gas in the body 10 is the gas after the reaction with the gas reaction device 60 no matter the gas is discharged from the first air outlet 111 or the gas is discharged from the second air outlet 141, so that the gas around the electronic device can be diffused to provide a better use environment.

In one embodiment, the top surface 11 of the housing 10 further has a groove 113, and the groove 113 is communicated with the first air outlet 111. Here, the groove 113 has a slope 1131, a first plane 1132, a longitudinal plane 1133 and a second plane 1134 connected in sequence, and the slope 1131 is connected to the top surface 11. The inclined surface 1131 has an included angle different from 90 degrees with respect to the first plane 1132, the longitudinal surface 1133 is perpendicular with respect to the first plane 1132 and the second plane 1134, and the first plane 1132 and the second plane 1134 are parallel to the top surface 11. The distances from the inclined surface 1131, the first plane 1132, the longitudinal surface 1133 and the second plane 1134 of the groove 113 to the top surface 11 increase in sequence. That is, the sloped surface 1131 of the groove 113 is closest to the top surface 11, while the second planar surface 1134 is furthest from the top surface 11.

In this embodiment, the area of the first flow guiding surface 31 of the first air guiding member 30 is slightly larger than the area of the first air outlet 111. Specifically, the width of the first air guide 30 between the first pivot 32 and the opposite side is greater than the width of the first air outlet 111. Herein, when the first air guide 30 is in a state of closing the first air outlet 111, the first flow guiding surface 31 of the first air guide 30 may be accommodated between the longitudinal surface 1133 and the second plane 1134 of the groove 113 without protruding from the top surface 11, so as to maintain the aesthetic property of the top surface 11 of the machine body 10.

In one embodiment, a protrusion 311 is further protruded from a side edge of the first guiding surface 31 of the first air guiding member 30, and the protrusion 311 is a triangular pyramid and has an inclined surface 3111. Herein, when the first air guide 30 is in a state of closing the first air outlet 111, the protrusion 311 extends to the first plane 1132 of the groove 113 on the top surface 11 of the body 10, and an inclined direction of the inclined surface 3111 of the protrusion 311 of the first air guide 30 is substantially equal to an inclined direction of the inclined surface 1131 of the groove 113. In addition, the inclined surface 3111 of the protrusion 311 of the first air guide 30 is spaced apart from the inclined surface 1131 of the groove 113 of the top surface 11 of the housing 10.

The recess 113 on the top surface 11 of the housing 10 may provide a slope 3111 for a finger or other tool to contact the protrusion 311 of the first air guide 30, so as to facilitate the operation of opening and closing the first air guide 30.

Although the present application has been described with reference to the above embodiments, it should be understood that various changes and modifications can be made therein by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, and therefore, the scope of the present application should be determined only by the appended claims.
