Supporting apparatus, support member, and electronic device
View Patent ↗According to one embodiment, a supporting apparatus includes a supporting portion and a suction module. The supporting portion is configured to support a wall of an electronic device. The electronic device includes a first surface with a honeycomb rib protrusion. The supporting portion includes a second surface including a first groove and an inlet. The first groove is configured to receive the rib in a state in which the supporting portion supports the wall. The inlet is configured to open toward a first face at a position within a hexagonal ring-like part of the first groove. The suction module is configured to take in air through the inlet.
1. A supporting apparatus comprising:
a supporting portion configured to support a wall of an electronic device, wherein the electronic device comprises a first surface with a honeycomb rib protrusion, and wherein the supporting portion comprises a second surface comprising a first groove and an inlet, the first groove being configured to receive the rib in a state in which the supporting portion supports the wall, the inlet being configured to open toward a first face at a position within a hexagonal ring-like part of the first groove; and
a suction module configured to take in air through the inlet.
2. The supporting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein
the ring-like part comprises a plurality of ring-like parts,
the inlet is configured to be provided to at least a portion of the ring-like parts.
3. The supporting apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the inlets are positioned along an end of the second surface.
4. The supporting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein an area of an opening of the inlet inside the ring-like part differs depending on a position of the inlet on the second surface.
5. The supporting apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a sealing portion interposed between the first surface and the second surface and between the ring-like part and the inlet.
6. The supporting apparatus of claim 5 , wherein
the sealing portion comprises a ring-like sealing member, and
a second groove configured to receive the sealing member is provided to at least one of the first surface and the second surface.
7. The supporting apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the sealing portion comprises a sealing agent applied to at least one of the first surface and the second surface.
8. A supporting portion comprising:
a second surface; and
an inlet passage, wherein
the second surface is configured to support a wall, the wall comprising a first surface with a honeycomb rib protrusion,
the second surface comprising a groove and an inlet,
wherein the groove is configured to receive the rib in a state in which the supporting portion supports the wall,
the inlet is configured to be opened toward the first surface at a position within a hexagonal ring-like part of the groove, and
the inlet passage is configured to be connected to the inlet.
