Description

electronic system

This case relates to an electronic system, and more particularly to an electronic system using an electronically controlled locking device.

Figure 1 is a schematic illustration of a conventional electronic system. Referring to FIG. 1 , in a conventional electronic system 100 , a notebook computer is taken as an example, and can be roughly divided into an upper member 110 and a lower member 120 . The system computing core and the storage device are disposed in the lower member 120 , and the display module is It is the upper member 110, and usually the upper member 110 and the lower member 120 are fixed together via the pivoting member 130 so that they can be turned over each other, but cannot be separated.

And because tablet PCs are more portable and easy to carry because they are thinner, lighter and shorter than notebook computers, they are rapidly becoming popular. However, because the current tablet computer uses the virtual keyboard module, it is still inconvenient in use, so there is another keyboard module that can be inserted into the tablet and only provides typing function, and usually does not go out when going out. The keyboard module is only for home use, so there is no other structure on the keyboard module that can be engaged with the tablet, so the tablet can be easily removed from the keyboard module.

This case provides an electronic system using an electronically controlled locking device.

An electronic system of the present invention includes a first electronic device, an electronically controlled locking device, and a second electronic device. The first electronic device is adapted to be coupled to the second electronic device, and the first electronic device has a system computing core, and the second electronic device has a storage device, and the electronically controlled locking device is electrically connected to the first electronic device. The first electronic device provides a locking command to control the electronic locking device to lock the first electronic device and the second electronic device; if the first electronic device gives a unlocking command, the electronic locking is controlled. The device is unlocked to remove the first electronic device from the second electronic device.

Based on the above, the electronic system of the present invention has an electronically controlled locking device, so that the first electronic device and the second electronic device can be interlocked by the electronically controlled locking device when the first electronic device and the second electronic device are coupled to each other. To prevent the first electronic device from being unloaded from the second electronic device while the electronic system is in use.

The above described features and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following description.

2 is a schematic diagram of an electronic system of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a block diagram of the electronic system of FIG. 2. Referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 simultaneously, the electronic system 200 includes a first electronic device 210, an electronically controlled locking device 220, and a second electronic device 230. The first electronic device 210 has a system operation core 212, and the electronically controlled locking device 220 is electrically connected to the first electronic device 210, and when the first electronic device 210 and the second electronic device 230 are used together, An electronic device 210 controls the electronically controlled locking device 220 to lock the first electronic device 210 and the second electronic device 230 together without being easily separated.

In detail, the first electronic device 210 of the embodiment may have a display screen 214 electrically connected to the system operation core 212, and the display screen 214 may be used to display the operation processing result of the system operation core 212, and the second electronic device The 230 itself may be a storage device or an electronic device having the storage device 232 (this embodiment uses the second electronic device 230 as an electronic device having the storage device 232 as an example), and when the first electronic device 210 and the second electronic device When the devices 230 are joined together, the first electronic device 210 and the second electronic device 230 can be electrically connected to each other. In addition, the first electronic device 210 may also have a first storage device 216 to store the operation processing result of the system operation core 212 in a small amount or temporarily. The capacity of the storage device 232 of the second electronic device 230 is greater than the capacity of the first storage device 216 of the first electronic device 210.

As can be seen from the above, the first electronic device 210 is, for example, a tablet computer having a system operation core 212, a display screen 214, and a first storage device 216, and a first operating system (for example, an OS) is disposed therein; and the second electronic device is provided. The device 230 can include a keyboard module 234 and a storage device 232. When the first electronic device 210 and the second electronic device 230 are coupled together, the keyboard module 234 and the storage device 232 are electrically connected to the first electronic device 210, respectively. A second operating system (for example, a Window operating system) may be installed in the storage device 232 of the second electronic device 230.

In the above, the second electronic device 230 has a slot 236 for the first electronic device 210 to be inserted, and the electronically controlled locking device 220 can be disposed in the slot 236 of the second electronic device 230 or In an electronic device 210, it is practical to select a location according to requirements. The electronic locking device 220 is electrically connected to the first electronic device 210 to receive the instructions of the first electronic device 210 to lock the first electronic device 210 and the second electronic device 230 together. The electronically controlled locking device 220 can be an electromagnet or a motor. Although only the electromagnet or the motor is described as an example, those skilled in the art can replace the electromagnet or the motor with other components without violating the spirit of the electronically controlled locking device 220 controlled by electricity. The purpose of locking the first electronic device 210 and the second electronic device 230 can also be achieved.
