The connection relationship between the support mechanism 20 and the body 10 will be described in detail below.

Please refer to FIG. 3A , which is a schematic view showing that the electronic device 1 is in a closed state. It should be noted that in FIGS. 3A , 4A, and 5A , in order to clearly show the connection structure between the supporting mechanism 20 and the main body 10 , the main body 10 is shown in dotted lines. The aforementioned electronic device 1 further includes a plurality of sliding rails R (for example, two) disposed in the main body 10 and located on two sides of the main body 10 respectively. The supporting mechanism 20 is pivotally connected to the sliding rails R and can rotate relative to the main body 10 .

In detail, please refer to FIGS. 2 and 3A , the aforementioned supporting mechanism 20 has a supporting plate 21 , a plurality of fixing bodies 22 , a plurality of connecting parts 23 and a plurality of sliding blocks 24 . Wherein, the fixed body 22 , the connecting piece 23 and the slider 24 disposed on both sides of the support plate 21 are approximately symmetrical (symmetrical to the central axis C). As shown in FIGS. 3B and 3C , the fixing body 22 is disposed on the support plate 21 , and the fixing body 22 is pivotally connected to the connecting member 23 and the sliding block 24 respectively. In a specific embodiment, the fixing body 22 includes a fixing body body 220 and an extending structure 221 . As shown in FIG. 2 , the extending direction of the extending structure 221 is different from that of the fixing body body 220 (relatively inclined). Both ends of the connecting member 23 are pivotally connected to the fixed body 22 and the slide rail R respectively. The sliding block 24 is located between the connecting parts 23 , and one end of the sliding block 24 is pivotally connected to the extension structure 221 of the fixing body 22 and connected to the sliding rail R in a slidable manner. In a specific embodiment, each supporting mechanism 20 includes two connecting pieces 23 . In a specific embodiment, the fixed body 220 of the fixed body 22 can be attached to the support plate 21 (see FIG. 3C ). In another embodiment, the support plate 21 may be provided with a pivot joint (not shown), and the connecting member 23 may be directly pivoted to the pivot joint without passing through the fixing body 22 .

In this embodiment, the slide rail R has a curved arc structure R1 (wherein, in FIG. The shaped structure R1 extends and bends from the display surface 101 of the main body 10 toward the back surface 102 . The arc-shaped structure R1 has a through groove T1, and the two sides (lateral sides) of the aforementioned slider 24 are formed with a concave structure T2. The structures R1 are engaged with each other and can slide between the two ends of the slot T1.

4A-4B are schematic diagrams showing that the aforementioned electronic device 1 is in an open state. As shown in FIGS. 3A and 4A , the supporting mechanism 20 of the electronic device 1 rotates relative to the main body 10 (along the direction A1 of FIG. 3A ) to the open state of FIG. 4A . At this time, the slider 24 slides from one end of the arc structure R1 to the middle of the two ends of the arc structure R1 (moves from the first position to the second position of the arc structure R1), and the support plate 21 of the support mechanism 20 is relatively 10 Rotate about 30 degrees.

Next, please refer to FIGS. 5A-5B , which are schematic diagrams showing the fully unfolded state of the aforementioned electronic device 1 in an open state. The support mechanism 20 of the electronic device 1 continues to rotate along the direction A1 (FIG. 4A). At this time, the slider 24 reaches the other end of the arc-shaped structure R1 (or the other end of the slot T1). In this way, according to FIG. 3A , 4A, 5A, the slider 24 slides from one end of the arc-shaped structure R1 to the other end, and the electronic device 1 switches (rotates) to the fully unfolded state (Fig. 5A) under the open state. In this state The angle between the lower support plate 21 and the body 10 is about 140 degrees, that is to say, the angle between the support plate 21 and the body 10 in this embodiment is between 0° and 140°. In another embodiment, the length of the long-axis direction of the slot T1 can be adjusted (for example, lengthened), so that the slider 24 has a longer moving space, and the opening and closing angle between the support plate 21 and the body 10 (support mechanism 20 The rotatable angle relative to the body 10) is between 0° and 160°.

It is worth noting that when the electronic device 1 is switched from the closed state ( FIG. 3B ) to the fully unfolded state ( FIG. 5B ) in the open state, in the direction of the long axis (Z axis) of the slide rail R, the slider 24 and the fixed The pivotal joint P1 of the body 22 moves from being higher than the pivotal joint P2 between the connecting member 23 and the fixed body 22 to being lower than the pivotal joint P2 between the connecting member 23 and the fixed body 22 . In addition, in FIG. 5B , in the direction perpendicular to the long axis of the slide rail R (Y axis), the extension structure 221 overlaps with the connecting member 23 .

Through the slide rail R having the arc structure R1, the slider 24 of the supporting mechanism 20 moves along the arc structure R1, so that it not only moves in the direction of the Z axis (down or up), but also in the X, There is displacement in the Y-axis direction. In this way, under the same length of the slot T1 (compared to the slider that only moves in the Z-axis direction, that is, the sliding rail does not have a moving mechanism with an arc structure), the opening and closing angle is larger and the sliding rail can be saved. R sets the volume within the body 10 . In addition, the components of the support mechanism 20 are simple (including the support plate 21 , the fixed body 22 , the connector 23 and the slider 24 ), which facilitates the assembly of the support mechanism 20 on the body 10 , thereby simplifying the number of overall parts and saving assembly time.

To sum up, the present invention provides an electronic device, which includes a body, a slide rail and a supporting mechanism. The aforementioned body has a display surface and a back surface, wherein the display surface and the back surface are located on opposite sides of the body. The aforementioned slide rail is arranged in the body. The above-mentioned supporting mechanism is arranged on the back side to support the body, and is pivotally connected to the slide rail. Wherein, the slide rail has an arc structure with an opening facing the display surface. When the electronic device is switched from a closed state to an open state, the supporting mechanism rotates relative to the body and moves from a first position of the arc structure to a second position. . In this way, by arranging the slide rail with an arc-shaped structure in the body, the supporting mechanism can move on the arc-shaped structure, while maintaining a certain opening and closing angle (such as 0-140 degrees or 0-160 degrees) , which can effectively save the space occupied by the slide rails in the body. In addition, the structure of the support mechanism of the present invention is simple, which can reduce the number of parts and the assembly cost of the electronic device.
