  • Publication number: 20120275094
    Abstract: A supporting mechanism for supporting an electronic device, the electronic device includes a first sidewall and at least one second sidewall. The supporting mechanism comprises a rotating tray and a supporting bracket. The rotating tray is rotatably coupled to the electronic device, and the supporting bracket is pivotably coupled to and foldable on the rotating tray. When the rotating tray is rotated with the supporting bracket perpendicular to the first sidewall, the supporting bracket is unfolded and cooperates with the first sidewall to support the electronic device in the first direction. When the rotating tray is rotated with the supporting bracket perpendicular to the at least one second sidewall, the supporting bracket is unfolded and cooperates with the at least one second sidewall to support the electronic device in a second direction different from the first direction. An electronic device is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20120236527
    Abstract: An exemplary support assembly is provided for supporting an electronic device on a supporting surface. The support assembly includes a shell receiving the electronic device, and a back-support. The shell defines an elongated sliding rail. The back-support includes a prop stand, and a prop seat slidable in the sliding rail. One side of the prop stand is rotatably engaged in the prop seat and serves as a spindle. The other sides of the prop stand are thus movable between a folded position substantially coplanar with the prop seat and a supporting position angled relative to the prop seat. When the other sides of the prop stand are in the supporting position, a tilt angle of the electronic device on the supporting surface is adjustable by sliding the prop seat in the sliding rail.
