Description

Electronic device

The present invention relates to an electronic device. More specifically, the present invention relates to an electronic device having a support member.

Nowadays, various electronic devices, including tablet computers, notebook computers, etc., have more and more different styling changes, so various shapes are also prone to cause the electronic device to be unstable, shake, etc. These designs are easy for the user to use. When the body is overturned.

In order to solve these problems, a common solution is that the user erects an external bracket for support, but this method is not convenient to use. In view of this, how to design a convenient electronic device support structure has become an important issue.

The invention solves the problem of overturning which is easy to generate due to the design of the electronic device which is generally unstable or top-heavy, and proposes a tripod structure which is arranged in the housing, and the structure can avoid the problem of overturning which is easy to occur during use.

An embodiment of the present invention provides an electronic device including a first module, a second module, and a housing, wherein the housing is disposed on one side of the second module, and connects the first module and the second Module. The inside of the housing is provided with a rod body, an abutting member, a supporting member and an elastic member. The rod body passes through the abutting member and is fixed on the rod body. The first module, and the support member is pivotally connected to the housing, and further, the elastic member connects the support member and the housing. When the second module and the housing are at a closed angle with respect to the first module, the second module is substantially parallel to the first module, and the support shields the opening of the housing.

When the second module and the housing are rotated from the closed angle to the opening angle relative to the first module, the abutting member pushes the support member to rotate the support member relative to the housing and protrudes from the housing, the support member and the first module Located on the opposite side of the housing. When the second module and the housing are rotated from the opening angle to the closing angle with respect to the first module, the supporting member is subjected to the pulling force of the elastic member, and the opening of the housing is again shielded.

In one embodiment, the first module is an input module and the second module is a display module.

Fig. 2 is a view showing the internal structure of a casing according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Figure 3 is a schematic view showing an electronic device at an opening angle according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1 , an electronic device 100 is mainly composed of a first module 101 , a second module 102 , and a casing 103 . The housing 103 is disposed on the second module . One side of 102 is connected to the first module 101 and the second module 102. In this embodiment, the first module 101 is a display module (such as a liquid crystal display module), and the second module 102 is an input module (such as a keyboard module).

2 is a schematic view showing the internal structure of a casing 103 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The casing 103 is internally provided with a rod 201, an abutting member 202, a supporting member 203, and an elastic member 204. The rod body 201 passes through the abutting member 202 and is fixed to the first module 101, and the supporting member 203 is pivotally connected to the housing 103. Further, the elastic member 204 connects the supporting member 203 and the housing 103.

Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 together. When the second module 102 and the housing 103 are at a closed angle with respect to the first module 101 (as shown in FIG. 1 ), the second module 102 and the second module A module 101 is substantially parallel, in which case the support member 203 shields one of the openings of the surface of the housing 103.

As shown in FIG. 3, when the second module 102 and the housing 103 are rotated relative to the first module 101 by a closing angle shown in the first figure to an opening angle, the abutting member 202 contacts and pushes the supporting member. 203. At this time, the support member 203 will rotate relative to the housing 103 and protrude from the housing 103. The support member 203 and the first module 101 are located on the opposite side of the housing 103, so that the support member 203 can be supported by the protruding support member 203. Electronic device.

When the second module 102 and the housing 103 are rotated back to the closing angle shown in FIG. 1 by the opening angle shown in FIG. 3, the support member 203 can be shielded from the housing 103 by the elastic force of the elastic member 204. The opening of the surface. In the present embodiment, the elastic member 204 is a spring.

In summary, the present invention provides an electronic device having a support member for supporting an electronic device to avoid overturning, and since the support member is integrated on the housing of the electronic device, the electronic device can be reduced. Increased thickness for easy storage and use.

Although the present invention has been disclosed above in the foregoing embodiments, it is not intended to limit the invention. Those of ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention pertains, A few changes and refinements can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Therefore, the scope of the invention is defined by the scope of the appended claims.
