For example, when the gravity sensor 160 senses that the third body 130 of FIG. 7 changes from the orientation shown in FIG. 7 to the orientation shown in FIG. 9A, FIG. 9B, or FIG. The directions of the icons in the shortcut column displayed by 130a1 are changed from those shown in FIG. 7 to those shown in FIG. 9A, FIG. 9B, or FIG. 9C.

此外,電子裝置100在圖2所示狀態可依據第三機體130的朝向而改變次顯示區130a1所顯示畫面的方向。圖10A及圖10B繪示圖2的次顯示區所顯示畫面的方向改變。舉例來說,當重力感測器160感測到第三機體130為圖10A或圖10B所示朝向時,電子裝置100據以將次顯示區130a1所顯示快捷列中的圖示的方向調整為圖10A或圖10B者。In addition, the electronic device 100 in the state shown in FIG. 2 can change the orientation of the screen displayed in the secondary display area 130a1 according to the orientation of the third body 130. 10A and 10B illustrate the change of the direction of the screen displayed in the secondary display area of FIG. 2. For example, when the gravity sensor 160 senses that the third body 130 is in the orientation shown in FIG. 10A or FIG. 10B, the electronic device 100 accordingly adjusts the orientation of the icon in the shortcut column displayed in the secondary display area 130a1 to Figure 10A or Figure 10B.

請參考圖4及圖5,本實施例的電子裝置100可包括一雙軸式樞接組件190。第一機體110與第二機體120藉由雙軸式樞接組件190而相互樞接,使第一機體110能夠從圖4所示狀態翻轉180度而成為圖5所示狀態。Please refer to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the electronic device 100 of this embodiment may include a biaxial pivot assembly 190. The first body 110 and the second body 120 are pivotally connected to each other by a biaxial pivoting assembly 190, so that the first body 110 can be turned 180 degrees from the state shown in FIG. 4 to the state shown in FIG. 5.

綜上所述,在本發明的電子裝置中,當第二機體與第三機體彼此閉合時,使用者可將第一機體掀起而讓第一機體疊置於第二機體上,使第一機體的第一顯示區朝向電子裝置的外側而被暴露出,且使第三機體的次顯示區被暴露出。此外,當第二機體與第三機體彼此閉合且第一機體亦閉合於第一機體時,第一機體的第四顯示區露出。藉此,即使第二機體與第三機體如上述般彼此閉合,電子裝置仍可利用第一機體的第一顯示區及第三機體的次顯示區提供顯示功能,或利用第一機體的第四顯示區提供顯示功能。To sum up, in the electronic device of the present invention, when the second body and the third body are closed to each other, the user can lift the first body so that the first body is stacked on the second body, so that the first body The first display area is exposed toward the outside of the electronic device, and the secondary display area of the third body is exposed. In addition, when the second body and the third body are closed to each other and the first body is also closed on the first body, the fourth display area of the first body is exposed. Thereby, even if the second body and the third body are closed to each other as described above, the electronic device can still use the first display area of the first body and the secondary display area of the third body to provide a display function, or use the fourth body of the first body. The display area provides display functions.
