When the display screen is rotated open, the driving unit drives the movable shell to open to expose the heat dissipation vents, and when the display screen is rotated closed, the driving unit drives the movable shell to close to shut off the heat dissipation vents.

[0005] As a further improvement, the heat dissipation vent is located on the rear side of the main body.

[0006] As a further improvement, one end of the movable shell is rotatably connected to the lower shell, and the other end is supported below the lower shell.

[0007] As a further improvement, the body has a first thickness when the display screen is rotated to close, and the body is configured to convert at least a portion of the body from the first thickness to a second thickness greater than the first thickness in conjunction with the rotation of the display screen to open.

[0008] As a further improvement, a rotating shaft for controlling the drive unit is included, the rotating shaft being connected between the display component and the body.

[0009] As a further improvement, a first magnet is provided on the rotating shaft, the first magnet having a first end located above and a second end located below.

[0010] As a further improvement, the first magnet is arc-shaped and covers the outer periphery of the rotating shaft.

[0011] As a further improvement, the drive unit includes a second magnet near the rotating shaft, the rotating shaft rotating between a first state in which the first magnet and the second magnet repel each other and a second state in which the first magnet and the second magnet attract each other.

[0012] As a further improvement, the drive unit includes a support fixed within the body, a spring connected to the support, a connecting rod connected to the spring, and a transmission component connecting the movable housing and the connecting rod. The connecting rod extends laterally and has a second magnet mounted at its end. The connecting rod is configured to receive magnetic force from the rotating shaft and convert it into a rotational operating force. The transmission component is configured to receive the rotational operating force of the connecting rod and convert at least a portion of the body between a first thickness and a second thickness.

[0013] As a further improvement, the transmission component has a first fulcrum connected to the connecting rod and a second fulcrum connected to the movable housing, and is configured to guide the first fulcrum to rotate relative to the second fulcrum during the transition from the first state to the second state.

[0014] As a further improvement, the transmission component includes a transmission rod rotatably connected between the connecting rod and the movable housing.

[0015] As a further improvement, the transmission component includes a gear rotatably mounted on the connecting rod, a transmission rod rotatably connected between the gear and the movable housing, and a rack formed on the lower surface of the upper housing, the rack meshing with the gear.

[0016] As a further improvement, the transmission component includes an elliptical gear rotatably mounted on the connecting rod, a rack is formed on the upper surface of the movable housing, the rack meshes with the gear, and a tension spring is also connected between the elliptical gear and the movable housing.

[0017] By employing the above technical means, this solution improves the heat dissipation structure of laptops by setting up an operable air vent on the main body. When the laptop is opened for use, the air vent opens to expand the heat dissipation space, so as to facilitate the timely output of heat generated during the use of the laptop.

[0024] Figures 1 and 2 illustrate an embodiment of the information processing device according to the present invention. The information processing device in this embodiment includes a body 1 and a display screen 2 rotatably connected to the body 1 via a rotating shaft 7. The body 1 includes an upper shell 3 and a lower shell 4 connected below the upper shell 3. One or more heat dissipation vents 5 are formed between the upper shell 3 and the lower shell 4. The heat dissipation vents 5 are located on the rear side of the body 1. The rotating shaft 7 is used to control a drive unit. A first magnet 8 is disposed on the rotating shaft 7. The first magnet 8 is arc-shaped and covers the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 7. The first magnet 8 has a first end located above and a second end located below.

[0025] A movable shell 6 is installed on the heat dissipation vent 5. One end of the movable shell 6 is rotatably connected to the lower shell 4, and the other end is supported below the lower shell 4, so that the body 1 has a first thickness when the display screen 2 is rotated to close. The body 1 is configured to combine the rotation of the display screen 2 to open and change at least a portion of the body 1 from the first thickness to a second thickness greater than the first thickness, thereby improving the heat dissipation structure of the laptop.

[0026] The main body 1 is equipped with a drive unit. When the display screen 2 is rotated to open, the drive unit drives the movable shell 6 to open to expose the heat dissipation vent 5. When the display screen 2 is rotated to close, the drive unit drives the movable shell 6 to close to shut off the heat dissipation vent 5. The drive unit is located in the space between the upper shell 3 and the movable shell 6, and includes a support base 9 fixed in the body 1, a spring 10 connected to the support base 9, a connecting rod 11 connected to the spring 10, and a transmission component connecting the movable shell 6 and the connecting rod 11. The connecting rod 11 extends laterally and has a second magnet 12 mounted at its end near the rotating shaft 7.

The connecting rod 11 is configured to receive magnetic force from the rotating shaft 7 and convert it into rotational operating force. The transmission component is configured to receive the rotational operating force of the connecting rod 11 and switch at least a portion of the body 1 between a first thickness and a second thickness. By providing a movable heat dissipation vent on the body, the physical movement of the mechanism is driven by the magnetic force of the magnet and the elastic force of the spring, thereby increasing the heat dissipation space of the device. In addition, the retractable support of the movable shell 6 under the lower shell 4 is also beneficial to the use of the device.

[0027] The transmission component of this embodiment includes a transmission rod 13 rotatably connected between the connecting rod 11 and the movable housing 6. The transmission component has a first fulcrum connected to the connecting rod 11 and a second fulcrum connected to the movable housing 6, and is configured to guide the first fulcrum to rotate relative to the second fulcrum during the transition from the first state to the second state.

[0028] Figures 3 and 4 illustrate a second embodiment of the information processing device according to the present invention. The structure in this embodiment is similar to that in the first embodiment, except that the transmission component includes a gear 14 rotatably mounted on the connecting rod 11, a transmission rod 13 rotatably connected between the gear 14 and the movable housing 6, and a rack 15 formed on the lower surface of the upper housing 3, which meshes with the gear 14.

[0029] Figures 5 and 6 illustrate a third embodiment of the information processing apparatus according to the present invention. The structure in this embodiment is similar to that of Embodiment 1, except that the transmission component includes an elliptical gear 16 rotatably mounted on the connecting rod 11, a rack 15 formed on the upper surface of the movable housing 6, the rack 15 meshing with the gear 14, and a tension spring 17 connecting the elliptical gear 16 and the movable housing 6. The elliptical gear 16 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 11 as a first fulcrum, and the gear surface of the elliptical gear 16 meshes with the rack 15 to form a second fulcrum.
