A chassis structure is provided and includes a main body, a lateral plate and a restraining mechanism. The lateral plate is detachably installed on the main body. The restraining mechanism is disposed between the main body and the lateral plate. The restraining mechanism includes a first restraining component and a second restraining component. The first restraining component is disposed on one of the main body and the lateral plate. The second restraining component is disposed on another one of the main body and the lateral plate. The first restraining component is configured to abut against the second restraining component to restrain a pivotal angle of the lateral plate relative to the main body for positioning the lateral plate at a supporting position relative to the main body, so as to prevent the lateral plate from falling off. Besides, an electronic device having the aforementioned chassis structure is provided.

Chassis structure and electronic device therewith

A supporting stand for supporting a panel is provided. The supporting stand comprises a base, a first force module, a one-way bearing, a rotating element, and a second force module. The base includes a bottom board and a first connecting board. The first force module is disposed on the first connecting board and includes a mandrel. The one-way bearing includes a shaft hole for the mandrel disposed therethrough. The rotating element connects with the one-way bearing and the panel so that the panel is capable of rotating at the mandrel along a first rotating direction or a second rotating direction opposite to the first rotating direction. The second force module is disposed on the base and actuated together with the rotating element. When the panel and the rotating element rotate along the first rotating direction, the one-way bearing refrains the first force module from providing a first backward torque to the rotating element.

Supporting stand

A supporting stand for supporting a panel is provided. The supporting stand comprises a base, a one-way damper, a force module, and a rotating element. The one-way damper is disposed on the first connecting board. The force module is disposed on the base and including a mandrel. The rotating element is connected to the panel, the one-way damper, and the force module, and is actuated together with the one-way damper and the force module so that the panel is capable of rotating around the mandrel in a first rotating direction or a second rotating direction. When the rotating element rotates in the first rotating direction, the one-way damper provides a first backward torque to the rotating element; when the rotating element rotates in the second rotating direction, the one-way damper do not provide torque to the rotating element but the force module provides a second forward torque when the rotating element rotates in the second rotating direction.

Disclosed is a supporting module for a display device, which includes a fixing seat, a pivot lever, a slider and a spring. The pivot lever and the slider constitute a screw transmission mechanism with a varied helix angle. The lifting and lowering of the display device can cause screw motion between the pivot lever and the slider and thus induces the linear movement of the slider according to the axial advance of the varied helix angle. Accordingly, the displacement of the slider causes different degrees of deformation in the spring, resulting in different spring resilience forces on the slider. By the screw transmission mechanism with the varied helix angle, different spring resilience forces can be further converted into different resistance torques to provide appropriate supporting force in coordination with the variation of the gravity torque of the display device.

Supporting module

Disclosed is a supporting module for a display device, which includes a fixing seat, a pivot lever, a slider and a spring. The pivot lever and the slider constitute a screw transmission mechanism. The pivot motion of the pivot lever can cause screw motion between the pivot lever and the slider and thus induces the linear movement of the slider with respect to the pivot lever. Accordingly, the displacement of the slider causes different degrees of deformation in the spring, resulting in different spring resilience forces on the slider. By the screw transmission mechanism, the different spring resilience forces can be further converted into different resistance torques to balance with the downward torque caused by the weight of the display device. As a result, the display device can stopped at any desired height.
