Abstract
An engaging module is suitable for first and second objects adapted to be combined or separated along a first axial direction. The engaging module includes an engaging component, an elastic component and an electromagnet. The engaging component is movably disposed on the first object. When the first object and the second object are combined, the engaging component is adapted to move to a first position along a plane to be engaged with the second object, and is adapted to move to a second position along the plane to separate from the second object. The first axial direction is not parallel to the plane. The engaging component is positioned at the first position through an elastic force of the elastic component, and is adapted to resist the elastic force of the elastic component to be positioned at the second position through a magnetic force generated by the electromagnet.
