Abstract
An electronic device includes a first housing, a second housing covering the first housing, a slide mechanism, a hinge bar, and a resilient element. The slide mechanism slidably connects to the first housing to the second housing. A first end of the hinge bar rotatably connects to the slide mechanism, a second end of the hinge bar rotatably and slidably connects to the first housing. The resilient element is fixed on the slide mechanism and the hinge bar. When the second housing overlaps the first housing, the resilient element is compressed to generate an elastic potential energy by the hinge bar and the slide mechanism; when the second housing is open relative to the second housing, the elastic potential energy drives the hinge bar to tilt relative to the slide mechanism and supports the second housing.
