Abstract
A portable electronic device includes a host module having a housing with an accommodation space, a display module and a lift structure. The display module is pivotally connected to the housing by a shaft. The lift structure includes a bottom cover covering the accommodation space, a swing member and a follower member. The bottom cover includes an abutment portion including an abutment surface and located on an end surface of the bottom cover adjacent to the accommodation space. The swing member is in the accommodation space and connected to the shaft. The swing member moves with the display module. The follower member connects to the swing member and contacts the abutment surface. The follower member moves in a first direction according to swinging of the swing member, therefore the follower member abuts against the abutment surface and the bottom cover moves in a second direction to lift up the housing.
