Embodiment Construction

[0031] FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a foldable electronic device according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to FIG. 1 , the foldable electronic device 10 of this embodiment is, for example, a notebook computer, which includes a first body 12 , a second body 14 , and a pivoting mechanism 100 . The pivot mechanism 100 is disposed on a side edge adjacent to the first body 12 and the second body 14 to pivotally connect the first body 12 and the second body 14 . In this embodiment, the first body 12 is, for example, a screen module, and the second body 14 is, for example, a host body, and the user can use the pivot mechanism 100 to make the first body 12 rotate relative to the second body 14 to open or The foldable electronic device 10 is closed.

[0032] Here, this embodiment will firstly describe the components of the pivot mechanism in detail. Figure 2A An enlarged view showing the pivoting mechanism of Figure 1, Figure 2B draw Figure 2A T...

Abstract

A folding type electronic device comprises a first main frame, a second main frame and a pivoting mechanism articulated between the first main frame and the second main frame, wherein the pivoting mechanism comprises a first support fixed on the first main frame, a second support fixed on the second main frame, a pivot articulated between the first support and the second support, a damper arranged on the second main frame and an elastic component arranged on the damper. When the first main frame turns towards the second main frame, the flange of the first support can drive the damper to work, thereby slowing down the speed at which the first main frame turns towards the second main frame. When the flange drives the damper to work, the elastic component is under elastic compression under stress; when the flange stops exerting force on the damper, the damper returns to the state before actuation by means of elastic force of the elastic component.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a pivot mechanism (Pivot Mechanism), and in particular to a pivot mechanism applicable to a foldable electronic device (Foldable Electronic Device). Background technique [0002] In today's information age, human beings are increasingly dependent on electronic products. In order to meet the requirements of high speed, high performance, thinness and shortness of today's electronic products, various foldable electronic devices have gradually become mainstream, such as notebook computers (Notebook PC), mobile phone (Cell Phone), personal digital assistant (Personal Digital Assistant, PDA), etc. These foldable electronic devices have become indispensable application tools in the life and work of modern people. [0003] Generally speaking, the foldable electronic device adopts a folding method to reduce the storage area, so as to achieve the purpose of light, thin and short electronic products. A general foldable electroni...
