Abstract

An electronic device including an electronic module, an inflator and an airbag is disclosed. The airbag is configured to be inflated by a gas produced by the inflator. The electronic module is disposed on the airbag and includes a first surface, a corner connecting with the first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. When the airbag is not inflated by the gas, at least a portion of the second surface is disposed between the first surface and the air bag, and the electronic module is at least partially overlapped with the airbag and not overlapped with the inflator in a top-view direction of the electronic module. When the airbag is inflated by the gas, the airbag contacts the corner of the electronic module, and the airbag at least partially contacts the first surface of the electronic module in the top-view direction of the electronic module.

Claims (11)

1 . An electronic device, comprising an electronic module, an inflator, and an airbag configured to be inflated by a gas produced by the inflator,

wherein the electronic module is disposed on the airbag and comprises a first surface, a corner connecting with the first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, wherein when the airbag is not inflated by the gas, at least a portion of the second surface is disposed between the first surface and the air bag, and the electronic module is at least partially overlapped with the airbag and not overlapped with the inflator in a top-view direction of the electronic module,

wherein when the airbag is inflated by the gas, the airbag contacts the corner of the electronic module, and the airbag at least partially contacts the first surface of the electronic module in the top-view direction of the electronic module.

2 . The electronic device as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising an accommodating space, wherein the airbag is accommodated in the accommodating space when the airbag is not inflated by the gas.

3 . The electronic device as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising an install portion and a connecting element disposed between the electronic module and the install portion.

4 . The electronic device as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a cushion element, wherein the electronic module is disposed on the cushion element.

5 . An electronic device, comprising an electronic module, an inflator, and an airbag configured to be inflated by a gas produced by the inflator,

wherein the electronic module is disposed on the airbag and comprises a first surface, a corner connecting with the first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, wherein when the airbag is not inflated by the gas, at least a portion of the second surface is disposed between the first surface and the air bag, and the electronic module is at least partially overlapped with the airbag and overlapped with the inflator in a top-view direction of the electronic module,

wherein when the airbag is inflated by the gas, the airbag contacts the corner of the electronic module, and the airbag at least partially contacts the first surface of the electronic module in the top-view direction of the electronic module.

6 . The electronic device as claimed in claim 5 , further comprising an install portion and a connecting element, wherein the electronic module is connected to the install portion through the connecting element.

7 . The electronic device as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the electronic module is capable of rotating or swinging relative to the install portion with the connecting element as an axis.
