Fastening device

Abstract

The buckling unit is applicable to notebook type computer or similar mechanism with upper cover and base possible to be opened or closed. The buckling unit includes first fastener installed on the upper cover, and second fastener installed on base of main body. There is a salient point on buckle surface of the first fastener, and there is a corresponding groove on buckle surface of the second fastener. The salient point and the corresponding groove are buckled to fasten cover and base.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fastening device, in particular to a fastening device used in a notebook computer. Background technique [0002] The traditional notebook computer can be roughly divided into two parts: the base of the system body and the top cover of the screen connected to the base of the system body through a rotating shaft mechanism. Open the top cover of the notebook computer screen for use, and close the screen top cover for storage or carrying. The base of the system body and the upper screen cover must be fixed when closing, so as to prevent the upper screen cover and the base of the system body from being accidentally opened during transportation, which may cause scratches on the screen surface, dirt intrusion into the gap of the keyboard, or damage to the shaft mechanism. [0003] Known notebook computers usually fasten the screen cover with the base of the system body by means of hooks. When the screen cover is to be opened, the b...

Problems solved by technology

However, after the screen cover is lifted, the hook protrudes from the panel, and users often touch the hook inadvertently, which may cause deformation and damage to the hook

And if the spring connected to the hook causes permanent deformation, the hook cannot return to its position after displacement, which will affect the stability of the buckle

[0004] Moreover, when the functions of the notebook computer are extended to the tablet computer, the handwriting function and operability of the screen will be hindered and unsuitable due to the protrusion of the hook.

In addition, when the screen top cover is designed to be separated from the system body base and used independently, after the screen top cover is separated from the system body base, the function of the hook will not be used temporarily, and the hook protruding from the panel will It will affect the overall shape, and there is a possibility of damage when carrying and handling

[0005] Therefore, traditionally, a magnetic buckling device has been developed. However, the magnetic force for buckling should not be too large, otherwise it will affect the operation of other electronic components inside the notebook computer.

Therefore, this known fastening device has congenital limitation on fastening degree
