A display including a supporting stand and a display panel is provided. The supporting stand has a rotating assembly, a drive motor, and a microcontroller. The display panel has a computing device. The drive motor is connected to the rotating assembly for driving the rotating assembly to rotate. The microcontroller is coupled to the drive motor for controlling the drive motor. The display panel is disposed on the rotating assembly. The computing device is coupled to the microcontroller. The computing device is configured to read an image. The computing device transmits a signal to the microcontroller based on an orientation of the image being portrait or landscape so that the microcontroller switches on the drive motor and the rotating assembly drives the display panel to rotate relative to the supporting stand for switching a rotating position of the display panel to a portrait mode or a landscape mode.

Display and rotating method thereof

An electronic apparatus has a slot for accommodating a stylus. The electronic apparatus includes a locking module, an input interface and a control circuit. The locking module is disposed adjacent to the slot. The locking module is configured to have a locked mode and an unlocked mode. Under the locked mode, the locking module is configured to lock the stylus in the slot. The input interface is configured to obtain authentication information. The control circuit is configured to verify the authentication information obtained by the input interface. When the authentication information is verified, the control circuit switches the locking module from the locked mode into the unlocked mode.

Electronic apparatus and control method

Disclosed is a supporting component, including a pivoting frame, a rotary bracket, and a support frame. The pivoting frame includes an accommodation space and a plurality of stop grooves. The rotary bracket has a first end portion and a second end portion, where the first end portion is pivotally disposed on the pivoting frame. The support frame is pivotally disposed on the rotary bracket, where an abutting piece is provided on one end of the support frame away from the rotary bracket. When the supporting assembly is in a use state, the rotary bracket causes, by using the first end portion as an axis of rotation, the second end portion to keep away from the accommodation space, and the support frame rotates relative to the rotary bracket, so that the abutting piece of the support frame abuts against any one of the stop grooves.

Supporting assembly and electronic device using the same

An electronic device housing includes a first housing, a second housing, and a foaming buffer unit. The first housing has a first inner surface, and the first inner surface has a first abutting area. The second housing has a second inner surface, where the second inner surface has a second abutting area, the second housing is connected to the first housing, and the second inner surface is opposite to the first inner surface. The foaming buffer unit is disposed between the first inner surface and the second inner surface, and abuts against the first abutting area of the first inner surface and the second abutting area of the second inner surface.

Electronic device housing

An electronic device includes a case. The case includes a plurality of first components and a plurality of second components. The first components and the second components are arranged alternately and pivotally each other. Each of the first components includes an accommodating slot. Each of the second components includes a connecting part, one or more curved parts, and one or more protrusions. The curved part is connected to the connecting part and received in the accommodating slot of the adjacent first component. The protrusion is arranged at a side of the curved part. When the case is bent, the first component and the second component could correspondingly pivot. The first component is capable of moving relative to the second component between the connecting part and the protrusion so that the curved part leaves the accommodating slot or receives in the accommodating slot.

Electronic device

An electronic device includes a first housing, a first lock mechanism disposed in the first housing, a second housing, and a second lock mechanism disposed at the second housing. The first housing has a first surface. The second housing pivoted to the first housing is suitable for rotating relatively to the first housing. The second housing has a second surface and a third surface which are respectively disposed at the two opposite sides of the second housing. When the second surface is closed to the first surface and a first portion of the second slider is protruded from the second surface, the first portion is locked with the first lock mechanism. When the third surface is closed to the first surface and a second portion of the second slider is protruded from the third surface, the second portion is locked with the first lock mechanism.

A portable computer is disclosed. A triple-hinged supporting assembly, which is employed to connect a display unit with a mainframe unit in the portable computer, can easily change various operation positions of the display unit and even rotate 180&#xb0; to horizontal, so as to fill different requirements of a user.

Portable computer

An electronic device having a keyboard fixed through a set of suckers and most suitably applied to the host body of an electronic product is provided. The electronic device includes a casing, a keyboard module and at least a sucker. The keyboard module has at least a key and the sucker is used for attaching the keyboard module to the casing. Furthermore, the sucker includes a first coupling part and a second coupling part. The first coupling part is used for sucking up the keyboard module and the second coupling part is used for fixing the sucker to the casing so that the electronic device and the host body can be assembled together smoothly.

Electronic device with sucker-fixed keyboard

An electronic device includes a first body having a first connector and a second body. A hinge located in the electronic device comprises a first hinge piece fastened to the first body, a second hinge piece fastened to the second body and pivotally coupled to the first hinge piece, and a second connector fastened to the fastened to the hinge piece and electrically connecting to the second body and the first connector individually.

Hinge with a connector

An electronic apparatus having a magnetic switch includes a first body, at least one magnetic component, a second body, and a magnetism barrier. In this case, the first body has at least one space. The magnetic component is accommodated in the space. The second body has at least one magnetizer, which is opposite to the magnetic component. The second body is pivoted on the first body. When the first body and the second body are closed, the magnetic component and the magnetizer face to each other. The magnetism barrier is disposed in the space of the first body. The magnetism barrier is disposed between the first body and the magnetic component.
