Abstract: A stand for a portable electronic device includes: an annularly-formed stand body having a first end face and a second end face apart from each other in a direction vertical to a face forming an annular circle of the stand body, the stand body holding therein the portable electronic device to be inserted from a side of the first end face; and a leg portion having side surfaces projected radially outside the stand body so as to reduce the width dimension between the side surfaces. A grounding surface of the stand to be grounded when the stand is mounted is selected from the second end face of the stand body and one of the side surfaces of the leg portion.

Abstract: There is provided a connecting apparatus for connecting to an electronic apparatus including a connector, the connecting apparatus including: a body that includes a base portion and a back portion substantially perpendicular to each other so as to define a holding space for holding the electronic apparatus; a connector provided on the base portion, and to be connected with the connector of the electronic apparatus; and a positioning unit which adjusts the electronic apparatus to a predetermined position with respect to the base portion in a state where the connector of the electronic apparatus is connected to the connector of the connecting apparatus.
