Abstract
Disclosed are a supporting structure having a variable form and an electronic device having the same. A supporting structure may include a fixing module, a tail end module, and a flexible module connecting the fixing module and the tail end module. The flexible module may include multiple chain units. The chain unit may include a support plate having a support surface and a lower surface opposite to the support surface, and a driving portion extending along from a side of the support plate away from the lower surface of the support plate. The chain units are hingedly connected in series. Adjacent chain units may drive the support surfaces to construct different forms through interaction between the driving portions, thereby forming the supporting structure whose form can be flexibly changed.
