為能讓 貴審查委員能更瞭解本發明之技術內容，特舉較佳具體實施例說明如下。In order to enable the reviewing committee to better understand the technical contents of the present invention, the preferred embodiments are described below.
首先請先一併參考圖1A係本發明之電子裝置之立體示意圖及圖1B係本發明之電子裝置之部分結構之立體示意圖。First, please refer to FIG. 1A for a schematic perspective view of the electronic device of the present invention and FIG. 1B for a perspective view of a portion of the electronic device of the present invention.
本發明之電子裝置1可為一體式電腦或是顯示螢幕，但本發明並不限於此。電子裝置1可包括殼體2及支撐結構10。殼體2可用金屬或是塑膠材質製成，用以保護其內部之電子元件(圖未示)。殼體2係被支撐結構10來支撐於桌面或地面上，且可以藉由支撐結構10來呈現出第一擺設狀態及翻轉之第二擺設狀態。支撐結構10包括第一轉軸21、第一支架31、第二轉軸22、第二支架32、第三轉軸23及第三支架33。第一轉軸21係設置於殼體2上，第一支架31係樞接於第一轉軸21，藉此第一支架31即可轉動，且其中當殼體2於第一擺設狀態下時，殼體2係藉由第一支架31來支撐。於本發明之一實施方式中，第一支架31未連接第一轉軸21之端具有一支撐腳311，使得殼體2藉由第一支架31支撐時能夠更穩固。The electronic device 1 of the present invention may be an integrated computer or a display screen, but the invention is not limited thereto. The electronic device 1 can include a housing 2 and a support structure 10. The housing 2 can be made of metal or plastic to protect the internal electronic components (not shown). The housing 2 is supported by the support structure 10 on the table top or the ground, and the first pendulum state and the inverted second pendulum state can be presented by the support structure 10. The support structure 10 includes a first rotating shaft 21, a first bracket 31, a second rotating shaft 22, a second bracket 32, a third rotating shaft 23, and a third bracket 33. The first rotating shaft 21 is disposed on the housing 2, and the first bracket 31 is pivotally connected to the first rotating shaft 21, whereby the first bracket 31 can be rotated, and when the housing 2 is in the first swing state, the shell The body 2 is supported by the first bracket 31. In an embodiment of the present invention, the end of the first bracket 31 that is not connected to the first rotating shaft 21 has a supporting leg 311, so that the housing 2 can be more stably supported by the first bracket 31.
第二轉軸22係設置於殼體2上，但與第一轉軸21的設置位置不同。第二轉軸22係連接第二支架32，使第二支架32可以轉動。當殼體2於第一擺設狀態下時，第二支架32係平貼於殼體2。第二支架32之另一端還具有第三轉軸23，藉此第三支架33，使第三支架33可以轉動。當殼體2於該第一擺設狀態下時，第三支架33係同樣平貼於殼體2。並且於本發明之較佳實施例中，殼體2還可具有一凹槽2a，其中當殼體2於第一擺設狀態下時，第二支架32及第三支架33係藉由折疊方式以放置於凹槽2a內，可使殼體2較為美觀。The second rotating shaft 22 is disposed on the casing 2, but is different from the installation position of the first rotating shaft 21. The second rotating shaft 22 is connected to the second bracket 32 so that the second bracket 32 can be rotated. When the housing 2 is in the first swing state, the second bracket 32 is flatly attached to the housing 2. The other end of the second bracket 32 also has a third rotating shaft 23, whereby the third bracket 33 allows the third bracket 33 to be rotated. When the housing 2 is in the first swing state, the third bracket 33 is also flatly attached to the housing 2. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the housing 2 can also have a recess 2a. When the housing 2 is in the first swing state, the second bracket 32 and the third bracket 33 are folded. The housing 2 is placed in the recess 2a to make the housing 2 more aesthetically pleasing.
而本發明之殼體2從第一狀態翻轉成第二擺設狀態的方式請一併參考圖2A到2D係本發明之電子裝置之殼體改變擺設狀態之連續作動圖。For the manner in which the casing 2 of the present invention is turned from the first state to the second state, please refer to FIGS. 2A to 2D for a continuous operation of changing the state of the casing of the electronic device of the present invention.
當殼體2要從第一狀態翻轉成第二擺設狀態時，首先殼體2係藉由第一轉軸21來翻轉，以翻轉180度成第二擺設狀態(如圖2A所示)。接著第三支架33係藉由第三轉軸23旋轉出來(如圖2B所示)，並旋轉到定位(如圖2C所示)。最後第二支架32再利用第二轉軸22來旋轉出來(如圖2D所示)，讓第三支架33即可放置於地面或桌面，當作第二支撐腳。藉此使殼體2利用第一支架31、第二支架32及第三支架33共同支撐。殼體2於第二擺設狀態的高度會高於原本的第一狀態，因此可以放置於地面。且當殼體2於第二擺設狀態時，電子裝置1也可以利用重力感應調節器(圖未示)等模組感應方向，以自動轉動其顯示方向。由於重力感應調節器之應用並非本發明之重點所在，故在此不再贅述其原理及作用方式。When the casing 2 is to be turned from the first state to the second pendulum state, the casing 2 is first turned over by the first rotating shaft 21 to be turned 180 degrees into the second pendulum state (as shown in FIG. 2A). The third bracket 33 is then rotated by the third shaft 23 (as shown in Figure 2B) and rotated to position (as shown in Figure 2C). Finally, the second bracket 32 is rotated by the second rotating shaft 22 (as shown in FIG. 2D), so that the third bracket 33 can be placed on the ground or the table top as the second supporting leg. Thereby, the casing 2 is supported by the first bracket 31, the second bracket 32, and the third bracket 33 in common. The height of the housing 2 in the second swing state is higher than the original first state, and thus can be placed on the ground. When the housing 2 is in the second swing state, the electronic device 1 can also sense the direction by using a module such as a gravity sensing regulator (not shown) to automatically rotate its display direction. Since the application of the gravity sensing regulator is not the focus of the present invention, the principle and mode of operation will not be described herein.
接著請參考圖3係本發明之電子裝置之殼體之擺設示意圖。Next, please refer to FIG. 3 , which is a schematic diagram of the housing of the electronic device of the present invention.
除了上述的第一擺設狀態及第二擺設狀態之外，殼體2還可以呈現出不同的擺放方式。就如同圖3所示，由於支撐結構10的第一轉軸21、第二轉軸22及第三轉軸23皆可提供扭力，藉此當殼體2從第一擺設狀態翻轉之後，殼體2可利用第一支架31、第二支架32及第三支架33之共同支撐以維持於任一傾斜角度。如此一來，使用者即可方便地調整殼體2之傾斜角度，以配合不同的使用方式。In addition to the first and second erecting states described above, the housing 2 can also assume different placements. As shown in FIG. 3, since the first rotating shaft 21, the second rotating shaft 22, and the third rotating shaft 23 of the support structure 10 can provide a torsion force, the housing 2 can be utilized after the housing 2 is turned over from the first swinging state. The first bracket 31, the second bracket 32, and the third bracket 33 are supported together to maintain any inclination angle. In this way, the user can conveniently adjust the tilt angle of the housing 2 to match different usage modes.
藉由本發明之支撐結構10，電子裝置1即可依據使用者的喜好改變使用方式，不限定要用於桌面或地面，也不限定殼體2需垂直於地面，殼體2可以擺放成任一角度，可改善先前技術不足之處。With the support structure 10 of the present invention, the electronic device 1 can be changed according to the user's preference, and is not limited to be used for the desktop or the ground, nor is the housing 2 required to be perpendicular to the ground. From a single perspective, it can improve the shortcomings of the prior art.
綜上所陳，本發明無論就目的、手段及功效，在在均顯示其迥異於習知技術之特徵，懇請 貴審查委員明察，早日賜准專利，俾嘉惠社會，實感德便。惟應注意的是，上述諸多實施例僅係為了便於說明而舉例而已，本發明所主張之權利範圍自應以申請專利範圍所述為準，而非僅限於上述實施例。To sum up, the present invention, regardless of its purpose, means and efficacy, shows its distinctive features of the prior art. You are requested to review the examination and express the patent as soon as possible. It should be noted that the various embodiments described above are merely illustrative for ease of explanation, and the scope of the invention is intended to be limited by the scope of the claims.
