The invention further provides for adjusting the heat dissipation space. The invention also proposes a method for adjusting the foot pad, which is finer than the electronic device having the casing, and the electronic device is adapted to the plane, comprising the following steps: setting the adjustable foot pad to the shell, and The adjustable ankle is at least partially protruded from the shell bristle plane contact: the temperature of the electronic device; the control signal is generated according to the temperature; and the adjustable foot pad is adjusted to protrude from the length of the casing according to the control signal. Thus, when the temperature of the electronic device is high, the heat dissipation performance of the electronic device can be improved by providing a large heat dissipation by the present invention. Preferred embodiments of the present invention and their effects are described below in conjunction with the drawings. [Embodiment] Please refer to "FIG. 1", which is a schematic view of an embodiment of a foot pad adjustment module. The foot pad adjustment module of the present invention is applied to an electronic device having a casing 2, and the electronic device ι is suitably placed on a plane 3 (refer to "2A" or "2B"). Among them, the electronic skirt ^ 4 1357794 can be a notebook computer, portable electronic device or other electronic device with a foot pad for heat dissipation. The 'foot pad adjustment module' includes: an adjustable foot pad 10, a temperature sensing unit 2, a control unit 30, and a driving unit 40. The adjustable foot pad 10 is disposed in the housing 2, and at least a portion protrudes from the housing 2, and is in contact with the plane 3. Wherein, the adjustable foot pad 10 protrudes from the portion of the casing 2, and the heat dissipation space of the electronic device 1 and the outside is formed between the flat surface 3 and the flat surface 3. In this way, the convection of the air in the environment by the adjustable heat dissipation space of the pedals can reduce the temperature generated by the operation of the electronic device. The temperature sensing unit 20 is configured to detect the temperature of the electronic device 1. For example, but not limited thereto, since a component that generates more waste heat in a general electronic device 1 (for example, a notebook computer) is a central processing unit (CPU), it can be located near a central processing unit of the electronic device. The temperature sensing unit is installed to detect the temperature of the central processing unit; or, because the performance of the display card in the electronic device 1 is increasing, many display cards also have independent processing units (GHJ). It can also be used in _ card_ near loading ship _ solution 2 (), and it depends on the temperature of the display _ card. Therefore, it can be known that the temperature of the electronic device 丨 can be known in the electronic device 1 according to the requirements of the electronic device i or the consumer, etc., in the electronic device [4] The temperature of a representative component with a temperature index. The control unit 3G_ is in the temperature sensing unit 2〇, and according to the temperature detected by the temperature unit, the button is detected. According to the gamma generated by the control unit 30, the 寻 调 3 3 Q 依据 依据 依据 依据 〇 〇 〇 〇 〇 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据 依据1357794 The drive unit 40 can be further referred to as "FIG. 1" and includes a motor 42 and a drive member 44. It can be seen from the embodiment shown in the figure that the motor 4 is in the control unit 30, and after receiving the control signal generated by the control unit 3, according to the control city, the member 44 is connected to the risk of riding the 42 (1), via the motor. The operation of 42 drives the adjustable _ 1 〇. That is, the adjustable footrest (1) can be adjusted to protrude from the length of the casing 2 in accordance with the temperature of the electronic device i, thereby adjusting the heat dissipation between the electronic device and the plane 3. Here, the driving member 44 may be a gear, a secret or an idler wheel, etc., and the adjustable foot pad K) may have a tooth structure 12 corresponding to the driving member 44 in order to match the structure of the driving member 44. Thus, the 'adjustable pedal 1 can be used to align the drive member 44 with each other' and the drive member 44 is rotated by the operation of the motor 42 to drive the adjustable cover (4) to protrude from the housing 2 The length. Please refer to "2A" and "2B" for the indications of the use of the mat adjustment module (1) and (2). "Fig. 2A" is a state in which the adjustable foot pad is lowered, that is, the adjustable foot pad H) is extended to protrude from the length of the casing 2. For example, when the temperature sensing unit 2 detects that the temperature of the electronic device 1 is increased, the electronic device must increase the residual efficiency, so that the temperature can be effectively reduced. Therefore, when the temperature of the electronic device is increased, the control unit (4) controls the driving unit 40, and the elongated adjustable foot pad 1b protrudes from the length of the casing 2. In this way, the adjustable footrest 1〇 can be protruded outside the casing 2, and the heat dissipation space formed between the plane 3 and the plane 3 can be significantly increased. In this way, by using the 1G to adjust the heat dissipation space of the electronic device and the outside world, the overall heat dissipation efficiency can be effectively improved. "Fig. 2B" is a state in which the adjustable foot pad is raised, that is, the adjustable ankle is narrowed 6 to protrude from the length of the casing 2. For example, according to the lobes of the adjustment wheel, the device (1) of the adjustable wheel is adjusted, and the drive unit (10) will automatically length 2, and if the electric 10 protrudes _ 2 _ minimum 2 pad 10, so that When the adjustable pedal 1 is used, it does not ____=^ does not use the storage space of the electronic device, and also _ _ _ her W electronic device 1 county shrinks _ 塾 1G _ the length of the housing 2 _, may also be The rear Z-type foot pad 1G protrudes longer than the length of the casing 2, but when the temperature of the electronic device 1 is lowered, there is no need for such a large thank-you, so that the control unit paste can drive the single 2' to be reduced. The adjustable foot is at the length of the housing 2. Thus, the current temperature of the electronic 1 , bribe (4) after the sudden body 2, (four) is the current thermal space suitable for the electronic device 1. Please refer to "Fig. 3", which shows a flow chart of the method for adjusting the ankle, which is applied to the electronic device having the housing and the electronic device is placed on the plane, and the steps are listed. The step team is provided with an adjustable foot pad in the housing, and the adjustable ankle at least partially protrudes from the housing to contact the plane. Step S20: detecting the temperature of the electronic device. Step S30: generating a control signal according to the temperature. Step S40. Adjust the adjustable foot to protrude from the length of the housing according to the control signal. In this step, the adjustment can be made by adjusting the adjustable ankle so that the length of the adjustable ankle protruding from the housing is proportional to the temperature. In addition to the above steps, 1357794 includes the following steps: when the electronic device is turned off, adjust the adjustable foot 塾 to minimize the length of the adjustable foot pad protruding from the housing. Although the technical details of the present invention have been described above, it is not intended to limit the present invention to anyone skilled in the art, and some modifications and refinements that are not made in the spirit of the present invention are encompassed by the present invention. Within the scope of the application, the scope of protection of this issue is subject to the definition of the scope of the patent application.
