An electronic device is provided, including a main body and a camera module. The camera module has a frame, a lens unit disposed in the frame, a guiding member, and a hinge. The guiding member is affixed to the main body and has a rail and a spring sheet. The hinge pivotally connects to the frame and the guiding member. When the camera module is in the retracted position, the camera module is hidden in a recess of the main body. When the camera module slides out of the recess from the retracted position along the rail into the operational position, the spring sheet is pressed by the hinge to increase the friction between the hinge and the guiding member.

Electronic device

A positioning structure adapted for installing and fixing at least two storage devices having different sizes is provided. Each storage device has a plugging end and a fixing end. The positioning structure includes a casing, a socket disposed on the casing, at least two position-limiting components protruding from the casing, and a fixing bracket detachably engaged with any one of the position-limiting components. The plugging end of each storage device is adapted to be plugged into the socket. The position-limiting components respectively keep a first distance and a second distance greater than the first distance from the socket. According to the size of the storage device to be installed, the fixing bracket is engaged with the position-limiting component keeping the first distance from the socket or the position-limiting component keeping the second distance from the socket to fix the fixing end of the storage device to the fixing bracket.

Positioning structure

The present disclosure provides an electronic device that includes a display device. A first panoramic image capturing device is movably configured on the display surface of the display device. A second panoramic image capturing device is movably configured on a back panel relative to the display surface. A drive unit is configured to push the first panoramic image capturing device out of the electronic device along a first direction perpendicular to the display surface and push the second panoramic image capturing device out of the electronic device along a second direction, which is opposite to the first direction, when receiving a first signal. The drive unit is configured to pull the first panoramic image capturing device back to the electronic device along the second direction and pull the second panoramic image capturing device back to the electronic device along the first direction when receiving a second signal.

Electronic device and operation method thereof

A portable electronic device is provided. The portable electronic device includes an input module, a display module, and a lens module disposed on the display module. The lens module includes a housing, a rear lens, a first elastic member, and a first magnetic member. The rear lens and the first elastic member are disposed in the housing, and the first elastic member is connected to the rear lens and the first magnetic member. A second magnetic member is disposed on the input module and corresponds to the first magnetic member.
