technical field

The present invention relates to an electronic device, and in particular to a handheld electronic device.

Background technique

With the development of today's information technology, it becomes easier and easier to obtain required information from electronic devices in daily life. On the other hand, with the improvement of technological level, all types of handheld electronic devices are developing towards the trend of thinner and smaller, and because of their characteristics and advantages of being easy to carry around, they are generally accepted by the public and used in daily life.

In recent years, due to the rapid development of touch screens, notebook computers equipped with touch screens also appear on the market, which usually include a relatively slidable main body and a display module, and an operation interface and a display screen are respectively configured on the main body and the display module. The display screen is located on the side of the display module away from the main body and is exposed for viewing by the user. The operation interface is located on the side of the main body facing the display module and is suitable for being covered by the display module. The user can push the display module to slide relative to the main body to expose the operation interface for operation. However, when the display module slides relative to the main body, the contact surfaces of the two are easily worn and scratched due to sliding friction.

Contents of the invention

The invention provides an electronic device, the first body of which can be raised and slid relative to the second body, so as to prevent the contact surface of the two from being worn when they slide relative to each other.

The invention provides an electronic device, which includes a first body, a second body, a lifting mechanism and a rotating mechanism. The first body has a first surface and a first slider. The second body has a second surface facing the first surface. The lifting mechanism is fixed on the second body, including the first slide rail and the shrapnel. The first slide rail has a lifting portion and a turning portion. The shrapnel is located at the turning part. When the first body slides relative to the second body, the first sliding block slides along the lifting portion to drive the first body to move upwards, so that the first surface and the second surface are separated by a distance. After the first body is slid to the position, the first slider slides to the turning portion and abuts against the elastic piece, so as to fix the first body to the position. The swivel mechanism has a pivot. After the first body is fixed and positioned, the first body is suitable for rotating relative to the second body through the pivot.

The invention provides an electronic device, which includes a first body, a second body and a lifting mechanism. The first body has a first surface and a first slider. The second body has a second surface facing the first surface. The second surface has a concave portion. The first body is suitable for sliding relative to the second body.
