Abstract
An expanding platform for a portable electronic apparatus is disclosed. The expanding platform includes a base, a moving element, an elastic element and a magnetic element. The moving element and the magnetic element are respectively and movably combined with the base. When the moving element is at an initial position, the moving element limits the movement of the magnetic element by a blocking portion. When the moving element moves to an unlocking position with respect to the base, the magnetic element disengages from the blocking portion and is attracted to move by a corresponding magnetic element of a main device combined with the base, so that the moving element is fixed at the unlocking position by the magnetic element blocking the blocking portion. After the magnetic element returns to its original position, the moving element returns to the initial position by the elastic element.
