It should be noted that, according to another embodiment of the present invention, the outer casing of the electronic device 20 may also be a plastic casing, a wooden casing, or the like that cannot be directly magnetically connected to the magnetic device 12, but is transmitted through the outer casing of the electronic device 20. A metal portion is provided and the magnetic device 12 can be magnetically coupled thereto.

接著請參考圖2C,支撐裝置10磁性連接到電子裝置20後,當底座14與平面100接觸時,電子裝置20之重力壓迫支撐裝置10,使底座14之表面與平面100接觸之一部分變形,形成支撐平面30而支撐電子裝置20立於平面100上。依據本發明之一實施例,底座14之表面所用之可變形材料係為橡膠材料,但本發明不以此為限,任何具類似功能可變形之材料皆可作為底座14表面之材料。而依據本發明之一實施例,底座14約為一圓球形狀之底座,但本發明亦不以此為限。2C, after the support device 10 is magnetically connected to the electronic device 20, when the base 14 is in contact with the plane 100, the gravity of the electronic device 20 presses the support device 10 to deform a part of the surface of the base 14 and the plane 100 to form a part. The support plane 30 supports the electronic device 20 to stand on the plane 100. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the deformable material used for the surface of the base 14 is a rubber material, but the invention is not limited thereto, and any material having a similar function and deformability can be used as the material of the surface of the base 14.
