Electronic device with illuminating assembly
An illuminating assembly includes a bracket, an engaging member, a light module, and a biasing member. The bracket includes a frame and a pressing panel rotatably located on the frame. The engaging member is attached to the bracket. The engaging member includes a first engaging portion which can be disengaged to release the light module. The light module is pivotally coupled to the bracket and is biased inwards when unreleased, and biased outwards and illuminated when released. The light module includes a base, a light source located on the base, and second engaging portion. The light module is movable from a closed position to an open position, to illuminate a keyboard.
1. An illuminating assembly, comprising:
a bracket comprising a frame and a pressing panel rotatably located on the frame;
an engaging member attached to the bracket, and the engaging member comprises a first engaging portion;
a light module pivotally coupled to the bracket; and the light module comprising a base, a light source located on the base, and second engaging portion; and
a biasing member;
wherein the light module is movable from a close position to an open position; in the close position, the first engaging portion engages with the second engaging portion to lock the light module; in the open position, the pressing panel is pressed in to laterally move the engaging member to disengage the first engaging portion from the second engaging portion, and the light module is rotated from the bracket by the biasing member.
2. The illuminating assembly of claim 1 , wherein the pressing panel comprises a first urging portion, the engaging member further comprises a second urging portion to engage with first urging portion, and the each of the first urging portion and the second urging portion is wedge-shaped.
3. The illuminating assembly of claim 2 , wherein a first moving direction of the first urging portion is substantially perpendicular to a second moving direction of the second urging portion when the light module is moved from the close position to the open position.
4. The illuminating assembly of claim 2 , wherein the engaging member comprising at least one resilient arm, and the at least one resilient arm is compressed when the engaging member is laterally moved by the pressing panel.
5. The illuminating assembly of claim 4 , wherein the at least one resilient arm comprises two resilient arms, and each of the two resilient arms is substantially S-shaped.
6. The illuminating assembly of claim 1 , wherein the pressing panel is integral with the frame.
7. The illuminating assembly of claim 1 , wherein each of the first engaging portion and the second engaging portion is wedge-shaped.
8. The illuminating assembly of claim 1 , wherein the biasing member is a coil spring.
9. An electronic device, comprising:
an enclosure, comprising a top cover and a bottom cover, and the top cover rotatable relative to the bottom cover; and
an illuminating assembly mounted on the top cover, the electronic device comprising:
a bracket comprising a frame and a pressing panel rotatably located on the frame;
an engaging member attached to the bracket, and the engaging member comprises a first engaging portion;
a light module pivotally coupled to the bracket, and the light module comprising a base, a light source located on the base, and second engaging portion; and
a biasing member;
wherein the light module is movable from a close position to a open position; in the close position, the first engaging portion engages with the second engaging portion to lock the light module; in the open position, the pressing panel is pressed in to laterally move the engaging member to disengage the first engaging portion from the second engaging portion, and the light module is rotated from the bracket by the biasing member.
10. The electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the pressing panel comprises a first urging portion, the engaging member further comprises a second urging portion to engage with first urging portion, and the each of the first urging portion and the second urging portion is wedge-shaped.
11. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein a first moving direction of the first urging portion is substantially perpendicular to a second moving direction of the second urging portion when the light module is moved from the close position to the open position.
12. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein the engaging member comprising at least one resilient arm, and the at least one resilient arm is compressed when the engaging member is laterally moved by the pressing panel.
13. The electronic device of claim 12 , wherein the at least one resilient arm comprises two resilient arms, and each of the two resilient arms is substantially S-shaped.
14. The electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the pressing panel is integral with the frame.
15. The electronic device of claim 9 , wherein each of the first engaging portion and the second engaging portion is wedge-shaped.
16. The electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the biasing member is a coil spring.
17. The electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the light module resides in the top cover in the close position, and protrudes from the top cover in the open position.
18. The electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the pressing panel is accessible from the top cover.
