  • Patent number: 8699213
    Abstract: An electronic device with supporting stands includes an input/output module, two stands and a limiter. The two stands are obliquely disposed on the back side of the input/output module. The stands are limited by the limiter to move synchronously. At the same time, the limiter has two slots penetrated by the stands to limit moving range for the stands. Then the stands are controlled to swing with an angle and finally the visual angle of the input/output module is varied in suitable range.

  • Patent number: 8531832
    Abstract: A notebook computer device includes an image capture module, a cover, a first magnetic element, and a second magnetic element. The image capture module is disposed on a body of the computer device, the cover is moveably disposed on the body. The image capture module is exposed when the cover is at a first position, and the image capture module is covered when the cover is at a second position. The first magnet element is disposed on the cover, and a second magnet element is disposed on the body corresponding to the first magnet element. The cover moves between a first position and a second position via the magnetic force of repulsion and attraction.

  • Patent number: 7894184
    Abstract: A portable electronic device includes a screen module, a main body module and an input/output module. The screen module is pivotally connected with the body module. The input/output module is electrically connected with the main body module. An actuating element is disposed at a bottom of the screen module. When the screen module is opened respectively to the body module to be opened, the actuating element is driven to swing to push a front end of the input/output module to be lifted to drive the input/output module to be out of a state that the keyboard abuts against the main body module. Therefore, the portable electronic device is easy to be operated. Moreover, the heat dissipation is improved to keep the internal temperature low and reduce energy consumption.
