Abstract

An electronic device, comprises: a base including a top surface and a bottom surface; a baseplate, a side edge of the baseplate is pivotally connected with the bottom surface, a moving member disposed in the base and configured to push against the baseplate; a linkage member disposed in the base and configured to push against the moving member; and a push member disposed in the base, the push member makes the baseplate moved via the linkage member and the moving member in sequence to make the baseplate selectively cover the bottom surface or detached from the bottom surface.

Claims (22)

1. An electronic device, comprising:

a base including a top surface and a bottom surface;

a baseplate, a side edge of the baseplate is pivotally connected with the bottom surface,

a moving member disposed in the base, comprising a press portion, and configured to push against the baseplate;

a linkage member disposed in the base, comprising a first protrusion, and configured to push against the moving member; and

a push member disposed in the base and comprising a first push portion, wherein the push member pushes against the linkage member via the first push portion, the linkage member pushes against the press portion via the first protrusion and the push member is configured to make the baseplate move via the linkage member and the moving member in sequence to make the baseplate selectively cover the bottom surface or detached from the bottom surface.

2. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the base includes a first pivot portion and a second pivot portion, the first pivot portion is adjacent to the top surface, the second pivot portion is adjacent to the bottom surface, the first pivot portion is pivotally connected with the push member and the linkage member, the linkage member is below the push member, the moving member is pivotally connected with the second pivot portion and below the linkage member.

3. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the push member includes a second push portion, the moving member includes a second protrusion, the push member pushes against the second protrusion via the second push portion.

4. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the press portion of the moving member further includes a pivot, and the pivot is pivotally connected with the baseplate.

5. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the electronic device further includes a hall sensor, and when the baseplate is opened, the hall sensor is driven.

6. An electronic device, comprising:

a base including a top surface and a bottom surface;

a baseplate, a side edge of the baseplate is pivotally connected with the bottom surface,

a moving member disposed in the base, comprising a connecting surface, and configured to push against the baseplate;

a linkage member disposed in the base, comprising a sliding slot and a press surface, and configured to push against the moving member; and

a push member disposed in the base and comprising a sliding member, wherein the sliding member is slidably connected with the sliding slot and the push member makes the baseplate moved via the linkage member and the moving member in sequence to make the baseplate selectively cover the bottom surface or detached from the bottom surface.

7. The electronic device according to claim 6 , wherein the push member is configured to slide relative to the base along a first direction, the linkage member is configured to move relative to the base along a second direction, and the moving member is configured to move relative to the base along a third direction.

8. The electronic device according to claim 7 , wherein the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are orthogonal to each other.

9. The electronic device according to claim 7 , wherein a sliding slot of the linkage member includes a center axis, an acute angle is formed between the center axis and the first direction, and an acute angle is formed between the center axis and the second direction.

10. The electronic device according to claim 6 , wherein the sliding slot includes a first end and a second end, when the sliding member is at the first end, the baseplate is closed, when the sliding member is at the second end, the baseplate is opened.

11. The electronic device according to claim 10 , wherein the electronic device further includes a block member, the block member includes a protrusion, the protrusion protrudes in the sliding slot, the protrusion is adjacent to the second end, and the protrusion is configured to block the sliding member at the second end.

12. The electronic device according to claim 11 , wherein the sliding slot includes an opening, the block member further includes an elastic arm, one end of the elastic arm is connected with the linkage member, the protrusion is connected with the other end of the elastic arm, and the protrusion protrudes in the sliding slot via the opening.
