For example, in the embodiment shown in the figure, the second buckling portion 42 can be a hook, the first buckling portion 32 can be a slot, and the second buckling portion 42 and the first buckling portion 32 are buckled with each other. However, it should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the specific forms of the first buckling portion 32 and the second buckling portion 42.

[0029] Next, see Figures 8 to 11 As shown, Figure 8 and Figure 9 are three-dimensional schematic diagrams of a metal base of a display assembly of a notebook computer according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 10 for Figure 9 An enlarged schematic diagram of the X portion, Figure 11 for Figure 9XI portion of the enlarged schematic diagram. In detail, the base body 11 has a first side 111, a second side 112 corresponding to the first side 111, a third side 113, and a fourth side 114 corresponding to the third side 113. The metal base 1 may further include a first extending corner 14 connected to one corner of the base body 11, and a second extending corner 15 connected to another corner of the base body 11. In addition, the first extending corner 14 is arranged at one corner between the first side 111 and the third side 113, and the second extending corner 15 is arranged at the other corner between the second side 112 and the third side 113. In addition, the accommodating groove 18 for accommodating the antenna module A may be located between the first extending corner 14 and the second extending corner 15. Preferably, the metal base 1 may further include a third extending corner 16 connected to another corner connected to the base body 11 and a fourth extending corner 17 connected to another corner of the base body 11. Furthermore, the third extending corner 16 is disposed at another corner between the first side 111 and the third side 113, and the fourth extending corner 17 is disposed at another corner between the second side 112 and the fourth side 114. Furthermore, the first extending corner 14, the second extending corner 15, the third extending corner 16, and the fourth extending corner 17 are respectively located at the four corners of the receiving recess 12. Therefore, when the notebook computer N falls, the first extending corner 14, the second extending corner 15, the third extending corner 16, and / or the fourth extending corner 17 can be utilized to prevent damage to the panel 2 from being impacted. Furthermore, preferably, in the present invention, the base body 11, the first extending corner 14, the second extending corner 15, the third extending corner 16, and the fourth extending corner 17 can be integrally formed to form the metal base 1.

[0030] In accordance with the above, please refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the specific structures of the first extended corner 14, the second extended corner 15, the third extended corner 16 and the fourth extended corner 17 will be further described below. In addition, since the first extended corner 14 and the second extended corner 15 are similar to each other, and the third extended corner 16 and the fourth extended corner 17 are similar to each other, the following content will use the first extended corner 14 and the third extended corner 16 as examples, and the structures of the second extended corner 15 and the fourth extended corner 17 will not be repeated here.

[0031] As mentioned above, Figure 10 As shown, in the present invention, the first extended corner 14 and the second extended corner 15 each include a positioning portion 101 having a positioning hole 100 and a rib 102 connected between the positioning portion 101 and the base body 11. In this way, the ribs 102 of the first extended corner 14 and the second extended corner 15 can be used to enhance the structural strength of the metal base 1. In addition, please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the display assembly D may further include a plurality of positioning posts B, and the second trim panel 4 may include a plurality of positioning holes 43. The positioning holes 100 of the first and second extended corners 14 and 15 correspond to the positioning holes 43 of the second trim panel 4, and the plurality of positioning posts B are respectively disposed in the corresponding positioning holes 100 of the first and second extended corners 14 and 15, as well as the corresponding positioning holes 43 of the second trim panel 4. Furthermore, the main assembly M of the notebook computer N may further include retaining holes M10 corresponding to the positioning posts B. Thus, when the display assembly D pivots relative to the main assembly M to assume the closed position, the positioning posts B can be inserted into the corresponding retaining holes M10. This allows the display assembly D to maintain its relative position with the main assembly M even when impacted, thereby preventing damage to the pivot base P. However, it should be noted that the positioning holes 100 provided on the first extended corner 14 and the second extended corner 15 of the metal base 1 can also serve as the locking holes 110 on the metal base 1. That is, in other embodiments, the locking piece S can also be used to lock the positioning holes 100 on the metal base 1 and the locking holes 33 of the first decorative panel 3.

[0032] As mentioned above, Figure 11 As shown, the third and fourth extending corners 16 and 17 can also each include a positioning portion 101 having a positioning hole 100 and a rib 102 connected between the positioning portion 101 and the base body 11. Thus, the ribs 102 of the third and fourth extending corners 16 and 17 can be utilized to enhance the structural strength of the metal base 1. Furthermore, in the present invention, the positioning holes 100 provided on the third and fourth extending corners 16 and 17 of the metal base 1 can also function as the locking holes 110 provided on the metal base 1. That is, a locking member (not shown) can be used to secure the pivot seat P to the positioning holes 100 provided on the third and fourth extending corners 16 and 17.

[0033] The beneficial effect of the present invention is that the display assembly D of the notebook computer N provided by the present invention can improve the overall structural strength of the display assembly D of the notebook computer N through the technical solution of "disposing the panel 2 in the accommodating groove 12".

[0034] Furthermore, the display component D of the notebook computer N provided by the present invention can also utilize the first surface S101 of the metal base 1 as the outer surface of the display component D through the technical solution of "a first decorative panel 3 is set on the first surface S101 of the metal base 1, and the first decorative panel 3 has a first groove 30 for exposing the first surface S101 of the metal base 1", thereby achieving the effect of improving the overall structural strength of the display component D and reducing the overall weight of the display component D in a limited space.
