  • Patent number: 9823717
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a first electronic unit having a top surface, a first pivot side and a receiving groove, a second electronic unit having a second pivot side pivoted to the first pivot side, an internal module movably received in the receiving groove, and first and second magnetic units respectively disposed on the second pivot side and the internal module. The second electronic unit is pivotable between covering and opening positions that covers and that is distant from the top surface, respectively. The second magnetic unit is magnetically attracted by the first magnetic unit to move one side of the internal module out of the receiving groove and toward the second pivot side when the second electronic unit is in the opening position.

  • Patent number: 9256259
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a touch-control socket device and a display device. The touch-control socket device includes a socket and a touch-control glass. The socket has a seat, a frame extended from the seat, and a connecting module disposed in the seat. The seat has a first insertable opening and a second insertable opening respectively facing two different directions. The touch-control glass is fixed on the frame and electrically connected to the connecting module. The touch-control glass has a first surface and an opposite second surface. When an electrical connector of the display device inserts into the connecting module through the first insertable opening, the first surface is used as a touch-control interface. When the electrical connector of the display device inserts into the connecting module through the second insertable opening, the second surface is served as a touch interface.

  • Patent number: 8184433
    Abstract: An electronic device having a pivotable cover includes a cover body, a device body connected pivotably to the cover body, and a switch unit disposed on pivot connecting portions of the cover body and the device body. When the cover body is pivoted relative to the device body, the switch unit switches a power supply status of the electronic device. Thus, the convenience of operating the electronic device is enhanced.

  • Patent number: 7852621
    Abstract: A computer includes a housing whereon an opening is formed, and a containing space is formed inside the housing. The computer further includes a rotary module installed inside the containing space in a rotatable manner, a first magnetic component connected to an end of the rotary module, a second magnetic component disposed on a side of the first magnetic component for attracting or repulsing the first magnetic component so as to switch the rotary module in a first position or in a second position, and a switch for converting magnetic field of the second magnetic component so that the second magnetic attracts or repulses the first magnetic component.

  • Publication number: 20090268386
    Abstract: A computer device includes a housing. An opening is formed on the housing and a containing space is formed inside the housing. The computer device further includes a first magnetic module exposing out of the opening partly and installed inside the housing in a movable manner, and a second magnetic module connected to an external module. When the first magnetic module moves to a first position, a first pole of the first magnetic module is located corresponding to a second pole of the second magnetic module so that the first magnetic module attracts the second magnetic module. When the first magnetic module moves to a second position, a second pole of the first magnetic module is located corresponding to the second pole of the second magnetic module so that the first magnetic module repulses the second magnetic module.
