Patent number: 11126227Abstract: An electronic device includes a main frame, a support component pivoted to the main frame, a flexible display panel connected between the main frame and the support component, and a display movably connected to the support component. The support component is adapted to be closed to the main frame to fold the flexible display panel between the main frame and the support component, and is adapted to be opened from the main frame to expand the flexible display panel. When the support component is opened, the display is adapted to rotate relative to the support component to a first state such that the display and the flexible display panel are located on the same side of the support component, and to rotate relative to the support component to a second state such that the display and the flexible display panel are located on different sides of the support component.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2019Date of Patent: September 21, 2021Assignee: COMPAL ELECTRONICS, INC.Inventors: Ching-Hua Li, I-Lung Chen, Nien-Chen Lee

Patent number: 10678307Abstract: An electronic device includes a first body, a second body, a base, a first shaft structure, a second shaft structure, and a locking component. The second body is connected to the first body through the base. The first shaft structure includes a first shaft and a second shaft. The second body is pivoted to a first base portion of the base through the first shaft and a second base portion of the base through the second shaft. The second shaft structure includes a connecting component fixed to the first body and a third shaft pivoted to the first base portion and the connecting component. The first and second shafts are perpendicular to the third shaft. The locking component is slidably disposed between the second base portion and the first body and configured to lock or release a connection between the second base portion and the first body.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2019Date of Patent: June 9, 2020Assignee: COMPAL ELECTRONICS, INC.Inventors: Wei-Ting Chen, Tzu-Chien Lai, Yen-Hsiao Yeh, Nien-Chen Lee, Yi-Chun Lin

Patent number: 10466750Abstract: An electronic device includes a first body, a second body, a function module and a driving module. The second body is pivoted to the first body. The function module is pivoted to the first body and located between the first body and the second body. The driving module is at least disposed at the first body and the function module. When the first body is closed to the second body, the function module is located at an original position relative to the second body, and the function module is exposed from the first body. When the first body is rotated in a first clock direction to a first angle relative to the second body, the function module is driven by the driving module so as to rotate in a second clock direction to a second angle relative to the second body, and the first angle is greater than the second angle.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2018Date of Patent: November 5, 2019Assignee: COMPAL ELECTRONICS, INC.Inventors: Nien-Chen Lee, Tzu-Chien Lai, Yen-Hsiao Yeh
