As described above, in the present embodiment, the electronic device 1 includes a first housing 11, a second housing 21, and support members 45B and 45C. The first housing 11 extends over the rear end portion 11j (first end portion), the front end portion 11i (second end portion) on the opposite side of the rear end portion 11j, the rear end portion 11j, and the front end portion 11i. It has a lower surface 11b (first surface) and an upper surface 11a (second surface) opposite the lower surface 11b. The second housing 21 has a front surface 21a (third surface), and has a rear end portion 11j and a front end portion between a position where the front surface 21a and the upper surface 11a face each other and a position where the front surface 21a and the upper surface 11a do not face each other. It is supported by the first housing 11 so as to be rotatable around a rotation center axis C located closer to the rear end portion 11j with the portion 11i. The support members 45B and 45C project from the lower surface 11b toward the outside of the first housing 11, are brought closer to the rear end portion 11j of the rear end portion 11j and the front end portion 11i, and are coupled to the first housing 11. There is. The support members 45B and 45C have an elastic portion 45a including the tip surface 45e of the support members 45B and 45C in the direction of protrusion of the support members 45B and 45C from the first housing 11. At least a part (a part as an example) of the elastic portion 45a is located outside the lower surface 11b in a direction from the front end portion 11i to the rear end portion 11j with respect to the rotation center axis C.

According to such a configuration, for example, even when the first housing 11 and the second housing 21 are integrally rotated in the rotation direction R1 with respect to the mounting surface 100a from the state shown in FIG. 4, it is elastic. The contact between the portion 45a and the mounting surface 10a is easily maintained. Therefore, it is easy to prevent the rear end portion 11j and the corner portions 11nb and 11nc of the first housing 11 from coming into contact with the mounting surface 100a.

Further, in the present embodiment, the front end surface 45e has a convex curved shape in the direction from the upper surface 11a to the lower surface 11b as it goes from the rear end portion 11j to the front end portion 11i.

According to such a configuration, for example, even when the first housing 11 and the second housing 21 are integrally rotated in the rotation direction R1 with respect to the mounting surface 100a from the state shown in FIG. 4, it is elastic. It is easy to increase the contact area between the portion 45a and the mounting surface 10a.

Further, in the present embodiment, the first housing 11 includes a lower cover 13 (first member) having a lower surface 11b and an upper cover 14 (second member) having an upper surface 11a. The lower cover 13 has corner portions 13nb and 13nc provided with notched portions 13a. The support members 45B and 45C cover the notch 13a.

According to such a configuration, the support members 45B and 45C can protect the edge portion of the notch portion 13a at the corner portions 13nb and 13nc. Further, the weight of the lower cover 13 can be reduced by the cutout portion 13a.

Further, in the present embodiment, the tip surface 45e is provided with a groove 45k (recess).

According to such a configuration, since the tip surface 45e and the mounting surface 10a are easily brought into close contact with each other, it is easy to prevent the tip surface 45e from slipping with respect to the mounting surface 10a.

Further, in the present embodiment, the groove 45k has a wavy shape.

According to such a configuration, the tip surface 45e and the mounting surface 10a are more easily brought into close contact with each other, so that it is easier to prevent the tip surface 45e from slipping on the mounting surface 10a.

Further, in the present embodiment, the elastic portion 45a with respect to the first housing 11 in the rotation direction R1, which is the direction in which the angle between the upper surface 11a and the front surface 21a increases when the elastic portion 45a comes into contact with the second housing 21. The rotation of the second housing 21 is restricted.

According to such a configuration, the electronic device 1 can be easily simplified as compared with the configuration in which the member that restricts the rotation of the second housing 21 with respect to the first housing 11 is provided separately from the elastic portion 45a. Further, since the contact of the second housing 21 with the first housing 11 is suppressed, it is possible to prevent the second housing 21 and the first housing 11 from being scratched.

In the above embodiment, an example in which the tip surface 45e is curved is shown, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the tip surface 45e may be flat. Further, in the above embodiment, an example is shown in which a part of the elastic portion 45a is located outside the lower surface 11b in a direction from the front end portion 11i to the rear end portion 11j with respect to the rotation center axis C. Not limited to. For example, the entire elastic portion 45a may be located outside the lower surface 11b in a direction from the front end portion 11i to the rear end portion 11j with respect to the rotation center axis C.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been exemplified above, the above-described embodiment is an example and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. The above-described embodiment can be implemented in various other forms, and various omissions, replacements, combinations, and changes can be made without departing from the gist of the invention. In addition, specifications such as each configuration and shape (structure, type, direction, type, size, length, width, thickness, height, number, arrangement, position, material, etc.) are changed as appropriate. Can be carried out.
