However, the latch mechanism currently used in this reversible notebook computer has not been developed from the mechanism design of the screen side that can be double-sidedly engaged with the host side, which means that it is used in two modes of use of a general notebook computer and a tablet computer. The mechanism design of the lower clamping host end, so how to design a latch mechanism with a double-sided clamping mechanism is a subject that needs to be worked on in the design of today's portable computer mechanisms

Embodiment Construction

[0030] see figure 1 and figure 2 , figure 1 and figure 2 They are schematic diagrams of the appearance of a portable computer 50 in different states according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The portable computer 50 can be a notebook computer, such as a reversible notebook computer, etc. The portable computer 50 includes a host 52, and a screen 54, which is pivotally connected to the host 52. For example, the screen 54 is pivotally connected to the host 52 in a convertible manner, that is to say, the screen can be rotated 180 degrees relative to the host 52, so that the portable computer 50 can be equipped with a general notebook computer and Two modes of use of the tablet, meaning as figure 1 Typical notebook computer usage as shown, or as figure 2 As shown, when the screen is pivoted by 180 degrees to be combined with the host 52, the combination of the screen 54 with touch operation function and the host 52 can be used as a tablet computer. In a...

Abstract

The invention discloses a latching mechanism and a portable computer. The latching mechanism comprises a first shell, a second shell, at least a guide post, a grab on which a fourth hole is formed, a fixed part, a latching part and a first magnetic element, wherein, the first magnetic element and the grab mutually attract when a screen pivots to a position close to a host so that the grab slides along a first direction on the guide post and passes through the second shell, the fixed part and the first shell, and the first magnetic element simultaneously drives the latching part to slide along a second direction so as to enable one end of the latching part to be inserted into the fourth hole of the grab, thereby fixing relative position of the screen and the host. The latching mechanism further comprises a push button which drives the latching part to depart from the fourth hole of the grab when the push button is pushed towards a direction opposite to the second direction.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a latch mechanism and a related portable computer, in particular to a latch mechanism and a related portable computer with a mechanism design for double-sided latching of a portable computer host and its screen. Background technique [0002] Generally speaking, when the notebook computer is in the closed state, in order to fix the combination between the screen and the host, a latch mechanism for latching the screen and the host comes into being. For example, the traditional latch mechanism often uses a hook Structure, latch structure, or magnetic element configuration to achieve the purpose of combining and fixing the screen and the host. For example, U.S. Patent Application No. 12 / 323,445 discloses a mechanism design in which a linkage set and a latch cooperate with each other to achieve a latch screen and a host. The host side and the screen side are only equipped with fixed parts such as bolts. The mechanism of latching an...
