Description

Portable computer

The present invention relates to a portable computer, and more particularly to a portable computer that can move a display screen toward a user and provide a support effect thereof.

Computers have become one of the modern life tools, and with the booming touch technology, most handheld computers or electronic communication products have used touch panels instead of traditional mouse or physical keyboard input. It is widely used in tablet PCs, smart phones, PDAs, etc., and with a new generation of operating systems that support touch applications to provide users with a more intuitive and convenient operating experience.

However, for the notebook computer, since it is equipped with an input device such as a QWERTY keyboard and a Touch Pad touch version, the operating system previously installed on the notebook computer does not support the touch input function or the operation interface design. It is not designed for touch gestures, so traditionally pure notebooks have less touch and design. However, on the one hand, operating system manufacturers have designed operating systems that support touch operations for notebook computers. On the other hand, consumers are increasingly demanding touch operations such as tablet or smart phones, so they are taking notes. The need to provide touch-operated functions on the computer or even the need to transform into a tablet has arisen. However, since the display screen of the notebook computer has a certain weight, after the display screen is displayed at a viewing angle with respect to the computer base, when the user directly applies the touch operation to the display screen, the force is applied. The torque of the point relative to the pivot is long, even if the pivot between the display screen and the host has a certain damping torque for the display screen to be fixed to any angle, the user can use the finger or the stylus When the screen is touched, the front and back shaking of the display screen may still be unstable, which may affect the user's operational comfort and cause visual discomfort. In severe cases, when the user exerts too much force, it is more likely that the display screen will be tilted backwards without back support, which will affect the user's operating experience and even damage the notebook computer body.

Therefore, the prior art has developed a practice of supporting and pivotally connecting the display screens in a support arm manner.

For example, the patent of the Japanese Patent Publication No. I316666 (U.S. Patent No. 7,184,263 B1), the portable computer uses a sheet-shaped support member to prop up the display screen, and is provided through the corresponding guide grooves provided on both sides of the keyboard for displaying the bottom of the screen. Sliding on the computer body to achieve the effect of displaying the screen upright. However, this design is only suitable for a tablet with a display screen facing up. In a typical notebook computer, the display screen is oriented toward the keyboard when not in use, and this design cannot be applied. Moreover, the appeal of the patent is a tablet computer, that is, the normal state should be that the display screen is lying flat upwards, and the slide is tilted when necessary, so that the display screen is exposed in any state. It is not possible to obtain proper cover protection.

Another example is the patent of Taiwan Patent Publication No. 566583. The electronic screen of the notebook computer can be designed by the multiple link mechanisms on both sides, so that the electronic screen can be flipped relative to the base to change the display direction of the screen. The function. However, such a design needs to cooperate with a large number of complex linkage mechanism components including pivoting, interlocking and sliding to achieve the flipping effect, which is disadvantageous for the assembly and operation of the notebook computer. And because the mechanism is too complicated and has two exposed supporting mechanisms and linkage mechanisms, it is not only visually unsightly, but also has a large resistance during sliding sliding process, and even the user may accidentally finger during the sliding process. There will be a pinch. Furthermore, since not only the two sides of the main unit need to reserve extra space for the groove and the pivoting mechanism of the special structural shape, and the two side frames of the electronic screen must additionally reserve space for providing the slotting and pivoting mechanism. The support member can be mounted therein for sliding and rotating, so that the overall thickness and thickness of the electronic screen cannot be reduced.

Therefore, how to design the structure of the portable computer to provide stable screen support and slip effect is a subject worthy of study.

Please refer to Figures 6(a), 6(b), and 6(c) together. 6(a) is a schematic view showing the first embodiment of the portable computer 1 of the present invention in a closed state; and FIG. 6(b) is a first embodiment of the portable computer 1 of the present invention being changed from a closed state to an open state. FIG. 6(c) is a schematic diagram showing the first embodiment of the portable computer 1 of the present invention in an open state.

As shown in FIG. 6( a ), when the portable computer 1 of the present invention is in a closed state, the display module 20 is superposed on the base 10 and pivotally connected to the sleeve sliding member 121 by the connecting end 21 . The display surface 22 of the display module 20 is directed toward the base 10; the support member 30 is also superposed on the display module 20, and is pivotally connected to the rear end 14 of the base and the display mode by the first fixed end 31 and the second fixed end 32, respectively. Group 20. In this embodiment, the portable computer 1 in the closed state has the connecting end 21 of the display module 20 and the second fixed end 32 of the support member 30 on different substantially parallel axes, so that the supporting member The length of 30 is greater than the length of the connecting end 21 of the display module 20 to the first fixed end 31 of the support member 30. However, according to the different requirements of the structural design, the portable computer 1 in the closed state can also adopt the design that the connecting end 21 of the display module 20 and the second fixed end 32 of the supporting member 30 are kept on the same axis, so that the supporting member The length of the 30 is equal to the length of the connecting end 21 of the display module 20 to the first fixed end 31 of the support member 30, and the invention is not limited thereto.

As shown in FIG. 6(b), when the user applies force to the free end 24 of the display module 20 to the free end 24 of the other side and wants to open the display module 20 to leave the closed state, the first step is started. The display module 20 rotates relative to the base 10 along with the support member 30 with the second fixed end 32 as a fulcrum; after the rotation is started at a certain angle, the length of the support member 30 is not less than the connection of the display module 20 The length of the first fixed end 31 of the support member 30 is such that the display module 20 starts to rotate with respect to the support member 30 with the first fixed end 31 of the support member 30 as a fulcrum; meanwhile, the display module 20 The connecting end 21 is a fulcrum, rotates relative to the sleeve sliding member 121, and pushes the sleeve sliding member 121 to move forward on the rod member 122, that is, the connecting end 21 of the display module 20 is driven by the sleeve sliding member 121. The second zone 16 slides forward toward the first zone 15.

As shown in FIG. 6(c), when the display module 20 is continuously rotated with the first fixed end 31 of the support member 30 as a fulcrum, the sleeve sliding member 121 drives the connecting end 21 of the display module 20 toward the first region 15 Sliding forward to the appropriate position (e.g., the end of the member 122), the open state of the portable computer 1 of the present invention is presented. At this time, the display module 20 is inclined at an angle with respect to the base 10, and the display surface 22 of the display module 20 faces the user, and the supporting effect between the display module 20 and the base 10 is provided by the support member 30.

On the other hand, when the user wants to return the portable computer 1 of the present invention from the open state to the closed state, it is only necessary to pull the free end 24 of the connecting end 21 of the display module 20 forward by reverse force, so that the display is displayed. The module 20 rotates with the first fixed end 31 of the support member 30 as a fulcrum, and the connecting end 21 is driven by the sleeve sliding member 121 to slide toward the rear end 13 of the base until it slides to the other of the rod member 122. At the end, the display module 20 is further rotated to a position where the support member 30 is pivoted to the closed state with the second fixed end 32 as a fulcrum.

Therefore, the portable computer of the present invention does not require complex component combination linkage, and only needs to use a set of sliding components in the center to achieve better performance than the prior art, thereby reducing the use of component numbers and making the overall device It is lighter and thinner. The sleeve portion 1212 of the sliding assembly 12 is hidden under the slit 162 and the display module 20 is closely attached to the surface 161, so that the entire inorganic component is exposed, which not only keeps the appearance simple and beautiful, but also does not clip The user's finger.

In particular, since the foregoing embodiments of the present invention adopt the central design of the single group sliding component 12, the frame space on both sides of the base 10 and the display module screen 20 is not required to be occupied, and the user is flipping or sliding the display module. In the process of 20, only one hand is required to hold the central end of the free end 24 of the display module. Since its position is equivalent to the position of the lower sliding component 12, the display module 20 can be smoothly stacked and more smoothly The stability of the display module 20 when sliding can be provided to facilitate user operation. Even if the user flips open the display module 20, the display module 20 automatically slides forward to the position after being turned to a certain angle, and the support member 30 is stably supported at the back, so the user takes the finger When the touch operation is performed on the display module 20, the screen will be stable and not shaken.

In the foregoing embodiments, the central purpose of the single support member 30 is matched with the structural design of the single slide assembly 12, which is also located at a relatively central position, to achieve the above-mentioned functional purpose, but according to different use requirements, efficiency trade-offs and mechanism design.
