Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of electronic devices, specifically relating to a laptop computer that can be opened and closed at a large angle. Background Technology
[0002] A laptop computer typically includes a base and a display module that is rotatably connected to the base via a hinge structure. The laptop computer can be opened or closed by flipping the display module up and down.
[0003] However, when a laptop is placed on a table for use, the end of the display module that connects to the base is easily interfered with by the base itself or the table when the laptop is opened to a certain angle. This limits the maximum opening angle of the laptop, making it difficult to meet the user's needs in certain scenarios. Moreover, the display lacks support at the maximum opening angle, which can easily lead to deformation over time. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an improved laptop computer that can be opened at a large angle.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A laptop computer capable of opening and closing at a large angle includes a base, a display module, and a hinge. A connecting protrusion is formed on the upper surface of the base, wherein the front end of the connecting protrusion forms a first connecting end, and the upper surface forms a support surface. The display module has a second connecting end, which is rotatably connected to the first connecting end via the hinge. As the second connecting end rotates relative to the first connecting end, the display module flips back and forth, forming a first limit position and a second limit position. When in the first limit position, the display module flips forward and closes relative to the base. When in the second limit position, the display module flips backward to above the connecting protrusion and adheres to the support surface from the back.
[0006] Preferably, when in the first extreme position, the back of the display module is flush with the support surface. This ensures the flatness of the upper surface of the laptop when closed.
[0007] Preferably, when in the first extreme position, the first connecting end and the second connecting end are joined together. Here, in the closed state, foreign objects can be prevented from falling between the first and second connecting ends, thus preventing damage when opened.
[0008] Preferably, when in the second extreme position, the end face of the first connecting end is flush with the end face of the second connecting end; and / or, when in the second extreme position, the display module unfolds 180° relative to the base.
[0009] Preferably, the hinge includes a body, a first rotating body and a second rotating body rotatably connected to opposite sides of the body, and a first connecting end and a second connecting end are fixedly connected to the first rotating body and the second rotating body respectively. That is, the hinge adopts a U-shaped hinge, which has a simple and reliable structure.
[0010] Specifically, the end face of the first connecting end is recessed inward to form a first connecting groove, and the end face of the second connecting end is recessed inward to form a second connecting groove. The first rotating body and the second rotating body are correspondingly fixedly connected within the first connecting groove and the second connecting groove. This enhances the compactness between the first and second connecting ends, improves connection stability, and reduces the space required for the display module's flipping movement.
[0011] Preferably, when in the second extreme position, the body simultaneously covers the openings of the first and second connecting grooves. This prevents foreign objects from entering the connecting grooves and improves aesthetics.
[0012] Preferably, the hinge also includes torque components correspondingly disposed at the rotatable connection points between each rotating body and the main body. As the display module flips back and forth, the torque components synchronously generate torque to drive the display module to hover at any angle between 0-180°. This enhances practicality.
[0013] Preferably, in the orthographic projection in the front-to-back direction, the two opposite sides of the connecting protrusion, base, and display module are flush.
[0014] Furthermore, the rear end face of the connecting protrusion is flush with the rear end face of the base. This facilitates the integral molding of the base and the connecting protrusion, simplifying the process and reducing costs.
[0015] Due to the implementation of the above technical solution, this utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art: When existing laptops are used on a desktop, the connection between the display module and the base is easily interfered with by the base itself or the desktop after the laptop is opened to a certain angle. This limits the maximum opening angle of the laptop, making it difficult to meet the user's needs in certain scenarios. Moreover, the display lacks support at its maximum opening angle, which can easily lead to deformation over time. This application redesigns the structure of a laptop that can open at a large angle, cleverly solving the shortcomings and defects of the existing technology. With this laptop, based on the connecting protrusion formed on the upper surface of the base, the display module is flipped forward to a first extreme position through the connection of the first connecting end of the connecting protrusion, the second connecting end of the display module, and the hinge. The display module is then flipped backward to a second extreme position, where it is flipped above the connecting protrusion and adheres to the support surface formed by the upper surface of the connecting protrusion from the back. Therefore, compared with the prior art, this utility model is based on the connecting protrusion formed on the upper surface of the base. Through the rotational cooperation between the display module and the connecting protrusion, the display module can be flipped back and forth above the base to avoid interference. At the extreme front and rear positions, the display module can open and close at a large angle relative to the base. At the same time, at the maximum unfolding angle, the support formed by the connecting protrusion enhances the deformation resistance of the display module and extends its service life.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the laptop computer in this embodiment, which can be opened and closed at a large angle, includes a base 1, a display module 2, and a hinge 3.
[0024] Specifically, the upper surface of the base 1 has an upwardly extending connecting protrusion t, wherein the left and right sides and the rear end of the connecting protrusion t are flush with the left and right sides and the rear end of the base 1, respectively, and the front end of the connecting protrusion t forms the first connecting end d1, and the upper surface forms the supporting surface m. As for the area on the base 1 located in front of the connecting protrusion t, which is used to arrange the keyboard and other functional areas, it is a conventional layout and will not be described in detail here.
[0025] In this example, the display area of the display module 2 is defined as the front and the back as the back. The display module 2 has a second connecting end d2, which is rotatably connected to the first connecting end via a hinge 3. As the second connecting end d2 rotates relative to the first connecting end d1, the display module 2 flips back and forth to form a first limit position and a second limit position. When in the first limit position, the display module 2 flips forward and closes relative to the base 1. When in the second limit position, the display module 2 flips backward to above the connecting protrusion t and adheres to the support surface m from the back.
[0026] In some specific embodiments, when in the first extreme position, the display module 2 is closed relative to the base 1, the back of the display module 2 is flush with the support surface m, and the first connecting end and the second connecting end are spliced together, so as to prevent foreign objects from falling between the first and second connecting ends in the closed state and to prevent damage when opened.
[0027] When in the second extreme position, the display module 2 flips backward to above the connecting protrusion t and fits against the support surface m from the back. The end face of the first connecting end d1 is flush with the end face of the second connecting end d2. At this time, the display module 2 unfolds 180° relative to the base 1.
[0028] To facilitate use and storage, and to improve the aesthetics of the product, the two sides of the connecting protrusion t, base 1, and display module 2 are flush in the front-to-back orthographic projection.
[0029] In this example, hinge 3 includes a body 30, a first rotating body 31 and a second rotating body 32 rotatably connected to opposite sides of the body 30, and torque components 33 correspondingly disposed at the rotatable connection points between each rotating body and the body 30. The first connecting end d1 and the second connecting end d2 are fixedly connected to the first rotating body 31 and the second rotating body 32 respectively. The structure and working principle of hinge 3 in this embodiment can refer to the commonly available U-shaped hinges, which are simple and reliable in structure.
[0030] Specifically, the end face of the first connecting end d1 is recessed inward to form a first connecting groove c1, and the end face of the second connecting end d2 is recessed inward to form a second connecting groove c2. The first rotating body 31 and the second rotating body 32 are correspondingly inserted into and fixedly connected within the first connecting groove c1 and the second connecting groove c2. This enhances the compactness between the first and second connecting ends, improves connection stability, and reduces the space required for the display module's flipping movement.
[0031] To further facilitate implementation, when in the second extreme position, the main body 30 simultaneously covers the openings of the first connecting groove c1 and the second connecting groove c2. This prevents foreign objects from entering the connecting grooves and improves aesthetics.
[0032] Furthermore, the torque component 33 can be any conventional torque component used in laptop hinges. As the display module 2 flips back and forth, the torque component 33 synchronously generates torque to drive the display module to hover at any angle between 0 and 180°, meeting the user's usage needs at any opening and closing angle between 0 and 180°. This enhances practicality.
[0033] In summary, after adopting this laptop, based on the connecting protrusion formed on the upper surface of the base, through the connection of the first connecting end of the connecting protrusion, the second connecting end of the display module, and the hinge, the display module is flipped forward to the first extreme position, and the display module and the base are relatively closed; the display module is then flipped backward to the second extreme position, and the display module is flipped above the connecting protrusion and adheres to the support surface formed by the upper surface of the connecting protrusion from the back. Therefore, compared with the prior art, this utility model has several advantages. First, based on the connecting protrusions formed on the upper surface of the base, the display module can be rotated and opened / closed relative to the base by rotating with the connecting protrusions to avoid interference. At the extreme front and rear positions, the display module can be opened and closed at a large angle relative to the base. At the maximum unfolding angle, the support formed by the connecting protrusions enhances the display module's resistance to deformation and extends its service life. Second, in the closed state, it can prevent foreign objects from falling between the first and second connecting ends, preventing damage when opening. Third, the design of the first and second connecting grooves enhances the compactness between the first and second connecting ends, improves connection stability, and requires less space for the display module to rotate. Fourth, it meets the user's needs for use at any opening / closing angle between 0-180°, enhancing practicality.
[0034] The present utility model has been described in detail above, with the aim of enabling those skilled in the art to understand its contents and implement it. However, this description should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of the present utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
