  • Patent number: 9886064
    Abstract: A connecting assembly is disposed between two opposite assembling sides of a first body and a second body of an electronic device. The connecting assembly includes an engaging member, an engaging portion and an elastic fixing mechanism. The engaging member is pivoted to the first body and the engaging portion is fixed to the second body. The elastic fixing mechanism is connected to the first body. When the first body is assembled to the second body, the engaging member rotates relative to the engaging portion from a first position to a second position, such that the engaging member is infixed to the engaging portion and the second body. Then elastic force of the elastic fixing mechanism fixes the engaging member together with the engaging portion and the second body, such that the first body is assembled to the second body. An electronic device having the connecting assembly is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20170344067
    Abstract: A pivot structure includes a base, a bracket, an elastic component, and a positioning assembly. The bracket is rotatably connected to the base. The elastic component is disposed on the base. The positioning assembly includes an elastic clip and a pillar. The elastic clip is pivoted to the base and has a first releasing segment and a first positioning segment. The pillar is connected to the bracket and has a second positioning segment. The pillar is rotatably clipped in the elastic clip. The bracket is adapted to be expanded to a first expanding state through an elastic force of the elastic component, so as to drive the second positioning segment to move along the first releasing segment. The bracket is adapted to receive an external force to be further expanded to a second expanding state, so as to drive the second positioning segment to move to the first positioning segment.
