An electronic device including a first body, a first connecting assembly, a second body, and a second connecting assembly is provided. The first body has a recess, and the first connecting assembly is disposed at the first body and hidden in the recess. The second connecting assembly is disposed on the second body in protruding manner. The second connecting assembly is fit to be assembled in the recess and electrically connected to the first connecting assembly, such that the first and the second bodies are detachably assembled to each other.

Electronic device

A portable electronic device includes first and second bodies. The first body includes a guiding rail, a restoring component, a first magnet disposed in the guiding rail, top and bottom surfaces. The guiding rail is connected between the top and bottom surfaces. The restoring component is disposed at one end of the guiding rail close to the top surface. The second body including a second magnet is pivotally connected to the first body for rotating from leaning on the top surface till leaning on the bottom surface. When the second body leans on the top surface, the first magnet is attracted to the second magnet to lean on the restoring component. When the second body leans on the bottom surface, an attraction force between the first and second magnets is greater than a restoring force provided by the restoring component so the second magnet moves toward the bottom surface.

Portable electronic device

A hinge structure including a first shaft, a second shaft and a moving component is provided. The first shaft and the second shaft respectively have a guiding portion and a first screw thread and a second screw thread located at the guiding portion. Each of the first screw threads is connected to the corresponding second screw thread. The moving component is respectively coupled to the two guiding portions. When the first shaft and the second shaft rotate with each other through the moving component to switch between a first state and a second state, the moving component is guided by the first screw threads and the second screw threads to move along a direction parallel to the first shaft back and forth.

Hinge structure

A pivot structure includes a gear mechanism, a first pivot assembly including a first stand, and a second pivot assembly including a second stand. The gear mechanism includes a first gear having a tooth portion, transmitting gears, and an end gear. The first gear, the transmitting gears, and the end gear are engaged in sequence. The second stand is rotated between a closed angle and an opening angle relative to the first stand by the gear mechanism. The tooth portion drives the transmitting gears to rotate the end gear when the second stand is rotated between a first middle angle and a second middle angle relative to the first stand, and the tooth portion is departed from the first transmitting gear when the second stand is rotated between the closed angle and the first middle angle relative to the first stand.

Pivot structure

An electronic device includes a first body, a second body, and a linking assembly. The first body has a first side and a second side opposite to each other, and a sliding slot located at the first side. The first body and the second body are pivoted to the linking assembly. The second body rotates relative to the first side of the first body to open or close and drives the linking assembly, such that the electronic device stands on a platform with the first side or the second side of the first body. The linking assembly has a supporting block movably coupled to the sliding slot. When the second body rotates to an angle relative to the first side, the supporting block protrudes out of the first side so that the electronic device stands on the platform with the first side.

A collapsible electronic equipment includes a pivot structure, a base and a cover. The pivot structure includes a first pivot assembly, a second pivot assembly, and a gear mechanism. The first pivot assembly is disposed on a side of the base. The second pivot assembly is disposed on a side of the cover. The gear mechanism is connected to the first pivot assembly and the second pivot assembly. The cover may be opened or closed relative to the base by the gear mechanism. When the cover is opened at 180 degrees relative to the base, the gap between the cover and the base is narrow, and the surfaces of the cover and the base are located on the same plane.

Collapsible electronic equipment and pivot structure

The present invention generally relates a portable computer, more particularly, to a structural frame for a portable computer. The frame includes a body, at least one hinge supporter, an input and output (I/O) port bracket, and a channel. The hinge supporter supports a display panel of the portable computer. The I/O port bracket accommodates a plurality of I/O terminals. The channel guides a liquid unexpectedly appearing on the body to a predetermined location. The frame is preferable made of a metal material for shielding and absorbing electromagnetic interference (EMI) and for strengthening the structure of the portable computer. The frame further contacts a heat-generating electronic device to dissipate the heat generated therefrom.
