Description of the invention (2) When the display is folded to a flat position, the aforementioned display still has visibility. More particularly, the present invention provides a personal computer including: a personal computer case having a processor fixed therein and incorporating peripheral devices; and a display case having a display that is immovable relative to the display case. The foregoing display case is substantially The upper part is rotatably fixed at a fixing point on the lower edge of the personal computer case, and the fixing point is along an axis of the personal computer case and is parallel to the first position of the personal computer case and at an angle relative to the personal computer case. The second position is movable. The display case has an inner surface and an outer surface opposite to the personal computer case side in the first position. The display is mounted on the outer surface. The present invention has an advantage that the aforementioned computer is applicable to a use environment where multiple people can watch the same display. For example: in a flat configuration, the aforementioned computer can be mounted on a wall. A better display is a thin-film electrical (TFT) touch screen display, which has particular advantages in being suitable for use in a surface-mounting environment. The main body personal computer case preferably forms an angled rear surface having a second display case fixed thereto. The aforementioned display is also fixed to the outer surface of the second display case, but the aforementioned display is preferably a thin film transistor touch screen display.

The aforementioned display 12 is installed in the display case and fixed to the display case. Therefore, the foregoing display cannot be moved to the display case In addition, the aforementioned display combination can be rotated axially, using a pair of The torque hinge is not described in this article. The aforementioned torque hinge is installed on the lower edge of the aforementioned display case to provide the pivoting torque of the aforementioned display case 13 relative to the personal computer case 14. The aforementioned torque hinge is fixed to the individual The computer case 14, so that the aforementioned display case can be rotated axially adjacent to the fixed axis of the personal computer case. The aforementioned axis is actually along the edge of the personal computer case. In this example, it is shown on the rear edge of the case. The torque hinge allows maximum friction. In addition, in Figures 3 and 4, you can see that in the second embodiment, the aforementioned screen is in an elevated position. The display assembly 12, 13 is clamped on a support 28 and a hanger. The setting of the mechanism 30. The aforementioned support 28 includes a T-shaped arm, which is hinged on the rear of the display and tapered toward the free end. A free opening is formed at the free end to receive the hanger. One part. The aforementioned hanger 3 includes a row of holding elements as shown in FIG. 4, and the aforementioned holding elements include an upwardly extending portion and a flat portion which is parallel and separates from the casing.
