  • Publication number: 20140347813
    Abstract: An electronic device opened by magnetic force includes a bottom cover, a top cover, at least one engaging module, a conductive logo, and at least one electromagnet. The top cover is capable of being opened and closed relative to the bottom cover. The top cover has a first engaging portion. The engaging module is disposed at the bottom cover and has a magnetic attraction portion, an elastic element and a second engaging portion. When the conductive logo is electrified, the electromagnet generates magnetism for attracting the magnetic attraction portion to drive the second engaging portion to be separated from the first engaging portion thus deforming the elastic element to allow the top cover to be opened. When the conductive logo is stopped from being electrified, the elastic element is restored to allow the second engaging portion to return to the original position.
