Through the rotation of the first hinge structure and the second hinge structure, the multimedia output device and the carrying surface can be switched from a first relative position relationship to a second relative position relationship. When the multimedia output device and the carrying surface have the second relative position relationship, the two cooperate to form a storage space that can accommodate the processing device, and the supporting device and the carrying device cooperate to form an avoidance space.

[0020] Preferably, in the above electronic device, the projection of the multimedia output device on the carrying surface overlaps with the projections of the first area and the second area on the carrying surface;

[0030] Since the projection areas of the first end of the supporting device and the processing device on the supporting surface are different when the electronic device is placed on the supporting surface, the supporting device will not be stacked on top of the processing device, that is, the supporting device and the processing device can be arranged side by side on the supporting surface in the same horizontal direction. Moreover, since the supporting device supports the multimedia output device, the installation height of the multimedia output device is indirectly reduced, thereby reducing the center of gravity of the electronic device and improving the support stability.

[0037] An embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device with improved support stability.

[0038] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0039] Please refer to the attached Figure 1-5 The electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application includes: a multimedia output device 1, used to output multimedia content; a supporting device 4, used to support the multimedia output device 1, having a first end and a second end opposite to each other, and the second end is connected to the multimedia output device 1; a processing device 2, which can at least be used to transmit media content to the multimedia output device 1; wherein, when the electronic device is placed on a carrying surface, the projection areas of the first end of the supporting device 4 and the processing device 2 on the carrying surface are different.

[0040] Since the projection areas of the first end of the supporting device 4 and the processing device 2 on the supporting surface are different when the electronic device is placed on the supporting surface, the supporting device 4 will not be stacked on top of the processing device 2, that is, the supporting device 4 and the processing device 2 can be arranged side by side on the supporting surface in the same horizontal direction. Moreover, since the supporting device 4 supports the multimedia output device 1, the installation height of the multimedia output device 1 is indirectly reduced, thereby lowering the center of gravity of the electronic device and improving the support stability.

[0041] The electronic device of the present application may be a computer, a television, etc. When the electronic device is an all-in-one computer, the multimedia output device 1 is specifically a screen, a printer, a plotter, an audio device, etc., and the processing device 2 is specifically a host.

[0042] Preferably, the electronic device also includes a carrying device 5 having a first side and a second side in opposite directions. When the electronic device is placed on the carrying surface, other devices that carry the electronic device (i.e., the structure of the electronic device other than the carrying device 5) have the first side facing the carrying surface; wherein the first end of the supporting device 4 is arranged in the first area of ​​the second side, the processing device 2 is arranged in the second area of ​​the second side, and the first area and the second area are different.

[0043] In a specific embodiment, when the carrying device 5 is placed on a carrying surface (specifically a desktop), the first side (specifically the bottom) of the carrying device 5 is in contact with the carrying surface, and the first end of the supporting device 4 and the processing device 2 are respectively located in different areas of the second side (specifically the top) of the carrying device 5, thereby achieving the support device 4 and the processing device 2 being arranged side by side on the second side of the carrying device 5, avoiding the support device 4 and the processing device 2 being stacked up and down, thereby lowering the center of gravity of the electronic device.

[0044] In the present application, the support device 4 and the processing device 2 are both arranged on the second side of the carrying device 5, and the supporting device 4 and the processing device 2 are fixed by the carrying device 5 to form a whole, which is convenient for assembly and transportation. Of course, the present application may also not include the carrying device 5, so that the support device 4 and the processing device 2 are directly connected by screws, rivets, etc., or the support device 4 and the processing device 2 may be arranged separately.

[0045] In a further technical solution, the first area is adjacent to the second area, that is, the first end of the support device 4 is adjacent to the projection area of ​​the processing device 2 on the bearing surface, which improves the compactness of the structure. There may also be a spacing or other structures such as a shelf between the first area and the second area.

[0046] In order to simplify the structure, the bearing device 5 includes a bearing bottom plate, the processing device 2 and the supporting device 4 are both arranged on the bearing bottom plate, and the first end of the supporting device 4 is lower than the top surface of the processing device 2. The first end of the supporting device 4 can be flush with the bottom surface of the processing device 2, or can be slightly higher than the bottom surface of the processing device 2. The present application reduces the height of the support for the multimedia output device 1 by reducing the height of the first end of the supporting device 4, thereby reducing the center of gravity of the electronic device.

[0047] In the present application, the first end of the supporting device 4 is arranged in the first area of ​​the bearing base plate, and the processing device 2 is arranged in the second area of ​​the bearing base plate, and an integral base plate is used to carry the processing device 2 and the supporting device 4, so the structure is relatively simple; and the contact area between the bearing base plate and the bearing surface is large, and the bearing stability is better.

[0048] It is understandable that the above-mentioned bearing device 5 can also be other structures, such as a bearing bracket, etc., to achieve the same effect of bearing the processing device 2 and the supporting device 4, and the present application will not repeat them one by one. The first end of the above-mentioned supporting device 4 can be directly arranged on the bearing bottom plate, or can be arranged on the bearing bottom plate through an intermediate connecting plate, that is, firstly stacking the connecting bottom plate 3 on the first area of ​​the bearing bottom plate, and then installing the first end of the supporting device 4 on the connecting bottom plate 3.

[0049] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the multimedia output device 1 can rotate relative to the bearing surface through a hinge structure; the present application can realize the rotation of the multimedia output device 1 relative to the bearing surface through the rotation of the hinge structure, so that the multimedia output device 1 has output surfaces at different angles to meet the needs of different people, thereby improving versatility. The present application may also not set the above-mentioned hinge structure, so that the multimedia output device 1 is at a fixed angle relative to the bearing surface, such as when the electronic device is a television, so that the display as the multimedia output device 1 is always perpendicular to the bearing surface (i.e., placed on the desktop).

[0050] Preferably, the hinged structure includes a first hinged structure 7 connecting the multimedia output device 1 and the second end of the supporting device 4; and a second hinged structure 8 connecting the first end of the supporting device 4 and the carrying device 5. Through the rotation of the first hinged structure 7 and the second hinged structure 8, the multimedia output device 1 and the carrying surface can be switched from a first relative position relationship to a second relative position relationship. When the multimedia output device 1 and the carrying surface have the second relative position relationship, the two cooperate to form a accommodating space that can accommodate the processing device 2, and the supporting device 4 and the carrying device 5 cooperate to form an avoidance space.

[0051] In this embodiment, the hinge structure adopts double hinges, and the multimedia output device 1 can rotate at a larger angle relative to the bearing surface. The first relative position relationship between the multimedia output device 1 and the bearing surface is specifically when the multimedia output device 1 is at an angle of 90 degrees to the bearing surface; the second relative position relationship is specifically when the multimedia output device 1 is laid on the bearing surface, that is, one end of the multimedia output device 1 can contact the bearing surface, such as when the multimedia output device 1 is at an angle of 45 degrees to the bearing surface, the bearing surface and the support device 4 can be used to support the multimedia output device 1, thereby improving the stability of the multimedia output device 1 at this angle; moreover, the processing device 2 is located in the accommodation space formed by the multimedia output device 1 and the bearing surface, and the avoidance space formed by the support device 4 and the bearing device 5 can be used to place items such as mobile phones, and has a placement function, thereby ensuring the versatility of the electronic device.

[0052] Since there is a height difference between the second part of the carrying device 5 and the upper surface of the host, an avoidance space can be formed. When the multimedia output device 1 and the carrying surface are in a second relative position relationship, that is, when the screen is laid down on the carrying surface, the supporting device 4 can be completely placed in the above-mentioned avoidance space, and the entire supporting device 4 is lower than the upper surface of the host, which further lowers the center of gravity of the multimedia output device 1 and the supporting device 4 and improves the support stability.

[0053] The first hinge structure 7 and the second hinge structure 8 specifically include a pin shaft and a pin hole that are rotatably matched. It can be understood that the hinge structure can also be a single hinge, including only the first hinge structure 7 or the second hinge structure 8.

[0054] In the electronic device provided in the above embodiment, the projection of the multimedia output device 1 on the carrying surface overlaps with the projections of the first area and the second area on the carrying surface; the carrying device 5 has a first part and a second part adjacent to each other, the processing device 2 is located in the first part, and the supporting device 4 is connected to an end of the second part away from the output surface of the multimedia output device 1, such as Figure 4 As shown, when the output surface of the multimedia output device 1 faces the user, this end is the edge area of ​​the rear end of the carrying device 5 .

[0055] It should be noted that the projection of the multimedia output device 1 (specifically the screen) on the bearing surface overlaps with the projection of the first area and the second area on the bearing surface, which means that the length of the screen covers both parts. Therefore, due to the height difference between the host and the second end of the supporting device, when accommodating a tall host, an area for placing items can be formed in the lower part.

[0056] The first part and the second part of the carrying device 5 are two major parts. The rear end of the second (right) part is used to connect to the supporting device (that is, the second area mentioned above), and the remaining area of ​​the second part except the second area can be used to place items.

[0057] The multimedia output device 1 of this embodiment is stacked relative to the processing device 2 and the supporting device 4, so that the structural arrangement is relatively concentrated; and the first end of the supporting device 4 is connected to the rear end of the second part of the carrying device 5, so that the supporting device 4 and the other area of ​​the second part of the carrying device 5 form a larger avoidance space for placing items, such as Figure 4 It is understandable that the second end of the supporting device 4 can also be connected to the middle or front end of the second part of the carrying device 5.

[0058] Specifically, Figure 1-2 As shown, when the output surface of the multimedia output device 1 faces the user, the first part of the carrying device 5 is the part of the carrying device 5 located on the left side of the user, and the second part is the part of the carrying device 5 located on the right side of the user. At this time, the processing device 2 is located on the left side, and the supporting device 4 is located on the right side, and the processing device 2 and the supporting device 4 form an asymmetric structure on the left and right.

[0059] Alternatively, the first part of the carrying device 5 can also be located on both sides of the second part, that is, the supporting device 4 is arranged in the middle, and the processing device 2 is divided into two parts, which are respectively located on both sides of the supporting device 4. The first part of the carrying device 5 can also be wrapped around the outside of the second part, that is, the supporting device 4 is arranged at the middle opening of the processing device 2, so that the processing device 2 and the supporting device 4 form a left-right symmetrical structure. As long as the layout of arranging the processing device 2 and the supporting device 4 side by side on the carrying surface can be achieved, the present application will not list them one by one here. In a specific embodiment of the present application, the supporting device 4 includes a support arm having a straight line bend portion with an obtuse angle, one end of the support arm is hinged to the carrying device 5, and the other end is hinged to the opposite side of the output surface of the multimedia output device 1. Figure 3-4As shown, one end of the support arm is hinged to the rear end of the second part of the carrying device 5, and the other end is hinged to the rear end surface of the multimedia output device 1. The obtuse straight line bending portion can form a larger avoidance space when the multimedia output device 1 and the carrying surface are in a second relative position relationship. The structure is relatively simple and the compactness of the structure is improved. The above-mentioned support arm can also be replaced by an arc arm to achieve the same effect of forming an avoidance space. It is understandable that the above-mentioned support device 4 can also be other structures, such as a support block, a support box, etc., to achieve the same purpose of installing and fixing the multimedia output device 1, and this application does not make specific limitations here.

[0060] In a further technical solution, the support arm includes a first bending arm and a second bending arm, both of which are provided with a straight bending portion; and a cross arm connecting the middle of the first bending arm and the middle of the second bending arm. The present application uses an H-shaped bracket formed by the first bending arm, the second bending arm and the cross arm as the support device 4, which has a simple structure and good support strength. At the same time, the connection gap between the first bending arm, the second bending arm and the cross arm can also avoid the placed objects.

[0061] The supporting arm may also be a plate-shaped structure or a rectangular bracket.

[0062] In order to facilitate the storage of the movable parts of the electronic device, the top surface of the processing device 2 is provided with an area 21 for accommodating the input device 6. The area 21 can be a groove opened on the top surface of the processing device 2, such as Figure 5 As shown, the depth of the groove must match the thickness of the input device 6, or be at least greater than the thickness of the input device 6, that is, after placement, the input device 6 does not protrude from the top surface of the processing device 2, thereby ensuring that the processing device 2 after accommodating the input device 6 can also be placed in the accommodating space formed by the multimedia output device 1 and the carrying surface.

[0063] The area 21 may also be a limit column disposed on the top surface of the processing device 2, for accommodating input devices 6 such as a keyboard, a mouse, a remote control, etc. that can be placed arbitrarily to prevent the above components from falling.

[0064] When the electronic device is an all-in-one computer, the processing device 2 is a base provided with a host, and the base has a heat dissipation port, a data interface, and a sound outlet; a speaker can also be connected (it should be noted that this structure is another multimedia output device different from the aforementioned multimedia output device). When the computer is not in use, the keyboard can be placed in the groove on the top surface of the base, which is neat; and the storage of the keyboard does not affect the tilting of the screen.

[0065] The heat dissipation vents, data interfaces, and sound outlets may be disposed on the front side (the side on the same side as the output surface of the screen), the back side, or the side of the host.

[0066] Of course, the area for accommodating the input device 6 may also be a slot arranged at the bottom of the processing device 2 .

[0067] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the electronic device further includes a wireless charging module, which is arranged on the top surface of the processing device 2 and / or the second part of the carrying device 5. When the module is arranged on the top surface of the processing device 2, the keyboard can be charged; when the module is arranged on the second part of the carrying device 5, that is, the position of the supporting device 4, the mouse, mobile phone or mobile power supply can be charged.

[0068] The module of the present application adopts wireless charging, which reduces the use of data cables and makes the structure neater. Of course, the above module can also adopt wired charging.

[0069] like Figure 1-3 As shown, there is a pluggable input knob on the left side of the screen, and the command is input by turning the input knob. The input knob can also be inserted on the right side of the screen, or it can be fixed and non-pluggable; the screen can also have only one knob interface, and the input knob cannot be changed.

[0070] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referenced to each other.

[0071] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present application. Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present application. Therefore, the present application will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but will conform to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
