技术领域 technical field

本发明涉及一种电子装置，特别是涉及一种具有隐藏式铰链的电子装置。The invention relates to an electronic device, in particular to an electronic device with a hidden hinge.

背景技术 Background technique

参见图1，现有的电子装置10(例如为一可携式电脑)包括一底座20、一盖体30以及各式连接端口40，底座20以及盖体30可根据一铰链50为中心相对旋转，进而可使电子装置10相对底座20开启或闭合，各式的连接端口40则可根据需求而设置于底座20的后侧或是左、右两侧。1, an existing electronic device 10 (such as a portable computer) includes a base 20, a cover 30 and various connection ports 40, and the base 20 and the cover 30 can rotate relative to each other based on a hinge 50. , so that the electronic device 10 can be opened or closed relative to the base 20, and various connection ports 40 can be arranged on the rear side or the left and right sides of the base 20 according to requirements.

然而，由于微小化的趋势，在电子装置的厚度上必须加以缩减，使其可更为轻薄，但是当底座20的厚度H1’缩减后，部分连接端口40皆会因为本身高度的关系而无法设置于底座20后侧，也就是说，若在底座20厚度H1’减少后，连接端口40的高度H2’大于底座20的厚度H1’时，则连接端口40将无法安装于底座20，因此底座20的厚度缩减将被连接端口40的高度所限制，因而无法达成轻薄化的设计趋势。However, due to the trend of miniaturization, the thickness of the electronic device must be reduced to make it lighter and thinner. However, when the thickness H1' of the base 20 is reduced, some connection ports 40 cannot be installed due to their own height. On the rear side of the base 20, that is, if the height H2' of the connecting port 40 is greater than the thickness H1' of the base 20 after the thickness H1' of the base 20 is reduced, the connecting port 40 cannot be installed on the base 20, so the base 20 The thickness reduction will be limited by the height of the connection port 40, so the design trend of thinner and lighter cannot be achieved.

具体实施方式 Detailed ways

参见图2A、图2B，本发明的电子装置100例如为一可携式电脑，包括一底座110、一第一盖体120、一第二盖体130、连接端口140、一弹性构件150、一转动构件160(弹性构件150以及一转动构件160显示在图4A、图4B中)、输入单元I以及显示单元D，如图2B所示，输入单元I包括一键盘以及一鼠标，设置于底座110上，显示单元D为液晶显示面板，设置于第一盖体120中。其中，底座110以及第二盖体130接合处分别包含一开口且互相对应以形成一容置空间S而得以容纳连接端口140，因此可克服连接端口140的高度H2大于底座110厚度H1的问题。换句话说，本发明同时利用底座110的厚度H1以及盖体(第一盖体120及第二盖体130)的厚度H3以设置连接端口140。2A and 2B, the electronic device 100 of the present invention is, for example, a portable computer, including a base 110, a first cover 120, a second cover 130, a connection port 140, an elastic member 150, a Rotating member 160 (elastic member 150 and a rotating member 160 are shown in Fig. 4A, Fig. 4B), input unit I and display unit D, as shown in Fig. 2B, input unit I comprises a keyboard and a mouse, is arranged on base 110 Above, the display unit D is a liquid crystal display panel and is disposed in the first cover 120 . Wherein, the junction of the base 110 and the second cover 130 respectively includes an opening corresponding to each other to form an accommodating space S for accommodating the connection port 140 , so the problem that the height H2 of the connection port 140 is greater than the thickness H1 of the base 110 can be overcome. In other words, the present invention utilizes the thickness H1 of the base 110 and the thickness H3 of the cover (the first cover 120 and the second cover 130 ) to configure the connection port 140 .

配合参见图3以及图2A、图2B，第一盖体120以一转轴A(如图4A、图4B所示)为中心枢转于底座110上，因此第一盖体120可在一第一位置(闭合状态，如图2A所示)以及一第二位置(开启状态，如图2B所示)之间相对底座110旋转。详细的说明，第一盖体120包括一第一主体121以及一第一连接构件122，而底座110包括一第二主体111以及一第二连接构件112，转轴A穿过第一连接构件122以及第二连接构件112以连接第一盖体120以及底座110。With reference to Fig. 3 and Fig. 2A, Fig. 2B, the first cover 120 is pivoted on the base 110 around a rotation axis A (as shown in Fig. 4A, Fig. 4B ), so the first cover 120 can Rotate relative to the base 110 between one position (closed state, shown in FIG. 2A ) and a second position (open state, shown in FIG. 2B ). In detail, the first cover 120 includes a first main body 121 and a first connecting member 122, and the base 110 includes a second main body 111 and a second connecting member 112, and the rotating shaft A passes through the first connecting member 122 and the second connecting member 112. The second connecting member 112 is used to connect the first cover 120 and the base 110 .

应注意的是，转轴A与底座110的边缘相距一段距离L，换句话说，第一盖体120并不是枢接于底座110的边缘，而是枢接于底座110的上表面，据此可使连接端口140得以设置于底座110的边缘在转轴A之间的空间(即该距离L所定义的空间)，并且对应隐藏于第二盖体130的下侧。It should be noted that there is a distance L between the axis of rotation A and the edge of the base 110. In other words, the first cover 120 is not pivotally connected to the edge of the base 110, but is pivotally connected to the upper surface of the base 110. Accordingly, The connection port 140 is disposed in the space between the edge of the base 110 and the rotation axis A (ie, the space defined by the distance L), and is correspondingly hidden on the lower side of the second cover 130 .

参见图3以及图4A、图4B，第二盖体130包括一第三主体131以及一滑轨133，第三主体131前侧包含一遮蔽部135。底座110更包括一滑槽113(如图3所示)，通过滑轨133在滑槽113中滑动，可使第二盖体130在一第三位置(对应闭合状态，如图2A以及图4A所示)以及一第四位置(对应开启状态，如图2B以及图4B所示)之间移动的方式设置于底座110上。Referring to FIG. 3 and FIGS. 4A and 4B , the second cover 130 includes a third body 131 and a slide rail 133 , and the front side of the third body 131 includes a shielding portion 135 . The base 110 further includes a chute 113 (as shown in FIG. 3 ), through which the slide rail 133 slides in the chute 113 to make the second cover 130 in a third position (corresponding to the closed state, as shown in FIG. 2A and FIG. 4A ) and a fourth position (corresponding to the open state, as shown in FIG. 2B and FIG. 4B ) is arranged on the base 110 in a manner of moving.

另外，第一盖体120更包括一第一卡合构件120E，设置于第一连接构件122上，且第二盖体130更包括一第二卡合构件130E，设置于第二盖体130的内表面且对应第一卡合构件120E，当第二盖体130位于第三位置时，第二卡合构件130E与第一卡合构件120E处于卡合状态(如图4A所示)，当第二盖体130位于第四位置时，第二卡合构件130E与第一卡合构件120E处于分离状态(如图4B所示)，如此可避免第二盖体130不经意的外力而与第一盖体120分离甚至毁损。In addition, the first cover 120 further includes a first engaging member 120E disposed on the first connecting member 122 , and the second cover 130 further includes a second engaging member 130E disposed on the second cover 130 . The inner surface corresponds to the first engaging member 120E. When the second cover 130 is in the third position, the second engaging member 130E is engaged with the first engaging member 120E (as shown in FIG. 4A ). When the second cover 130 is in the fourth position, the second engaging member 130E is separated from the first engaging member 120E (as shown in FIG. 4B ), so that the second cover 130 can be prevented from colliding with the first cover due to inadvertent external force. Body 120 is detached or even destroyed.

应注意的是，在此实施例中，第一卡合构件120E为一凹槽，而第二卡合构件130E为一突出部，但不限于此，第一卡合构件120E也可为一突出部，而第二卡合构件130E也可为一凹槽，只要第一卡合构件120E与第二卡合构件130E可确实卡合即可。It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the first engaging member 120E is a groove, and the second engaging member 130E is a protrusion, but not limited thereto, the first engaging member 120E can also be a protrusion portion, and the second engaging member 130E can also be a groove, as long as the first engaging member 120E and the second engaging member 130E can be engaged reliably.

更者，底座110更包括一固定部H，设置于第二主体111的下表面，且固定部H包含一卡勾。弹性构件150例如为一弹簧，且弹簧的一端勾住固定部H，而另一端则与滑轨133连接。如此，当第二盖体130由第三位置(对应闭合状态)移动至第四位置(对应开启状态)时，弹性构件150被滑轨133拉伸而变形并储存一弹力，当弹性构件150的弹力被释放时，可使第二盖体130由第四位置(对应开启状态)回复至第三位置(对应闭合状态)。Furthermore, the base 110 further includes a fixing portion H disposed on the lower surface of the second body 111 , and the fixing portion H includes a hook. The elastic member 150 is, for example, a spring, and one end of the spring hooks the fixing portion H, and the other end of the spring is connected to the slide rail 133 . In this way, when the second cover 130 moves from the third position (corresponding to the closed state) to the fourth position (corresponding to the open state), the elastic member 150 is stretched by the slide rail 133 to deform and store an elastic force. When the elastic force is released, the second cover 130 can return from the fourth position (corresponding to the open state) to the third position (corresponding to the closed state).

转动构件160可为一球体或是一转动轮，以可转动的方式设置于第二盖体130上，并与第一盖体120抵接。当第一盖体120从第一位置转动至第二位置或从第二位置转动至第一位置时，通过转动构件160沿着第一盖体120的表面转动，除可避免第一盖体120以及第二盖体130之间因摩擦而产生刮痕的缺点外，也可提升第一盖体120转动时的顺畅程度。The rotating member 160 can be a ball or a rotating wheel, which is rotatably disposed on the second cover 130 and abuts against the first cover 120 . When the first cover 120 rotates from the first position to the second position or from the second position to the first position, the rotation member 160 rotates along the surface of the first cover 120, except that the first cover 120 can be prevented from In addition to the disadvantage of scratches caused by friction between the second cover 130 , the smoothness of the rotation of the first cover 120 can also be improved.

以下说明当使用者开启及闭合第一盖体120时的动作。首先，如图2A、图4A中所示，此时第一盖体120位于第一位置，且第二盖体130位于第三位置，也就是第一盖体120与底座110相对闭合，此时第三主体131的遮蔽部135遮蔽转轴A、第一连接构件112以及第二连接构件122使不显露在外以提升整体的美观程度，并且第一卡合构件120E与第二卡合构件130E相互卡合。The action when the user opens and closes the first cover 120 is described below. First, as shown in Fig. 2A and Fig. 4A, the first cover 120 is at the first position, and the second cover 130 is at the third position, that is, the first cover 120 and the base 110 are relatively closed, at this time The shielding portion 135 of the third main body 131 shields the rotating shaft A, the first connecting member 112 and the second connecting member 122 so that they are not exposed to enhance the overall aesthetics, and the first engaging member 120E and the second engaging member 130E are engaged with each other. combine.

接着，如图2B、图4B所示，当使用者欲相对开启第一盖体120以及底座110时，可将第一盖体120顺着转轴A旋转，使其相对于底座110转动至第二位置；在旋转同时，第一卡合构件120E与第二卡合构件130E分离，第一盖体120抵着转动构件160而将第二盖体130由第三位置推动至第四位置。在第二盖体130被推动其间，与第一盖体120抵接的转动构件160沿着第一盖体120的表面转动，以防止产生刮痕并增加转动顺畅程度，且弹性构件150随着第二盖体130上的滑轨133的移动而拉伸变形，进而储存一弹力。Next, as shown in FIG. 2B and FIG. 4B , when the user wants to open the first cover 120 and the base 110 relative to each other, the first cover 120 can be rotated along the rotation axis A so that it rotates to the second position relative to the base 110 . Position; while rotating, the first engaging member 120E is separated from the second engaging member 130E, and the first cover 120 pushes the second cover 130 from the third position to the fourth position against the rotating member 160 . While the second cover 130 is being pushed, the rotating member 160 abutting against the first cover 120 rotates along the surface of the first cover 120 to prevent scratches and increase the smoothness of rotation, and the elastic member 150 follows the The movement of the slide rail 133 on the second cover 130 is stretched and deformed, thereby storing an elastic force.

接着，当使用者将第一盖体120由第二位置转动至第一位置时，虽无直接对第二盖体130施力，但可通过弹性构件150释放的弹力，进而将第二盖体130由第四位置返回至第三位置，而第二卡合构件130E与第一卡合构件120E也再次相互卡合。Next, when the user rotates the first cover 120 from the second position to the first position, although no force is directly applied to the second cover 130, the elastic force released by the elastic member 150 can further push the second cover 130 returns from the fourth position to the third position, and the second engaging member 130E and the first engaging member 120E are engaged with each other again.

本发明的电子装置中充分利用底座110的厚度H1以及第二盖体130的厚度H3以将连接端口140设置于电子装置100的后侧边缘，使系统设计者有更大的配置空间以及设计更加轻薄的产品。此外，通过转动构件160的设置，可防止电子装置100表面产生刮痕并增加转动顺畅程度。最后，更利用第二盖体130巧妙的隐藏第一盖体120与底座110连接的部分，提升整体的美观程度。In the electronic device of the present invention, the thickness H1 of the base 110 and the thickness H3 of the second cover 130 are fully utilized to arrange the connection port 140 on the rear side edge of the electronic device 100, so that the system designer has a larger configuration space and a more efficient design. Thin and light product. In addition, the arrangement of the rotating member 160 can prevent scratches on the surface of the electronic device 100 and increase the smoothness of rotation. Finally, the second cover 130 is used to subtly hide the connection between the first cover 120 and the base 110 , so as to enhance the overall aesthetics.

虽然结合以上较佳实施例揭露了本发明，然而其并非用以限定本发明，任何熟悉此技术者，在不脱离本发明的精神和范围内，可作些许的更动与润饰，因此本发明的保护范围应以附上的权利要求所界定的为准。Although the present invention has been disclosed in conjunction with the above preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone familiar with the art can make some changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention The scope of protection should be defined by the appended claims.
