BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE Field of the DisclosureThe disclosure relates to an electronic device, and more particularly to an electronic device that avoids contact of high temperature.
Description of Related ArtCurrent e-sports notebook has good visual effects and computing capability. When the game is running, the processor and graphics chip with high-performance also generate more heat, and the heat is transferred to the housing of the notebook such as the keyboard supporting area, and therefore the surface temperature of the keyboard supporting area is greatly increased. As a result, the user's hands feel uncomfortable when leaning against the keyboard supporting area. The existing solution is to arrange an additional plate on the keyboard supporting area to avoid that the user touches the keyboard supporting area with high temperature. However, the plate needs to be manually disassembled, and the plate further reduces the heat dissipation efficiency of the e-sports notebook, which is disadvantageous for the operation of e-sports notebook.
SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSUREThe disclosure provides an electronic device that avoids contact of high temperature.
An electronic device of the disclosure includes a first body, a second body and a palm component. One end of the first body has a supporting portion. The second body is pivotally connected to a first side of the supporting portion and has a sliding portion. The palm component is pivotally connected to a second side of the supporting portion and comprises a guiding portion, and the sliding portion is slidably connected to the guiding portion. When the first body is pivotally rotated away from the second body, the second body is driven to make the sliding portion move along the guiding portion, and the second side of the supporting portion is rotated relative to the first side such that the palm component is protruded from the second body. A tilt angle is formed between the second body and the protruding palm component.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, the palm component includes a body and at least one linkage. Two opposite edges of the body comprise a sliding rail respectively to form the guiding portion. At least one linkage is disposed at the body and faces the first body, and is pivotally connected to the second side of the supporting portion.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, the sliding portion comprises a receiving groove and two sliders, the receiving groove is configured to receive the body, and the two sliders are slidably connected to the two sliding rails respectively.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, the second body comprises at least one engaging groove that communicates with the receiving groove and is configured to receive at least one linkage.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, the first body comprises a supporting surface disposed at the second side of the supporting portion. When the first body and the palm component are in an open state, the supporting surface, the body, and the at least one linkage are connected in a straight line.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, the supporting portion comprises a first blocking surface, and the second body comprises a first positioning surface. When the first blocking surface abuts against the first positioning surface, the first body and the palm component are in an open state with a tilt angle between 5 and 12 degrees.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, the supporting portion comprises a second blocking surface, and the second body comprises a second positioning surface. When the second blocking surface abuts against the second positioning surface, the first body and the palm component are in a closed state and the palm component is received within the sliding portion of the second body.
Based on the above, in the electronic device of the disclosure, when the first body is pivotally rotated away from the second body and the palm component with the maximum angle, the supporting portion of the first body may drive the sliding portion of the second body to move along the palm component simultaneously such that the body of the palm component is extended out of the sliding portion of the second body. The body of the palm component is configured to allow the user to rest his/her palm to avoid contacting the high-temperature second body of the electronic device. In addition, the second body is driven by the first body to have a tilt angle with respect to the palm component, which is advantageous for resting the palm or improving comfort in operation.
In order to make the aforementioned features and advantages of the disclosure more comprehensible, embodiments accompanying figures are described in detail below.

The palm component 130 includes a body 131 and at least one linkage 132. The body 131 is a rectangular plate structure. In the exemplary embodiment, the number of the at least one linkage 132 is, for example, two. In other embodiments, the number of the at least one linkage 132 is, for example, one or two or more, and the disclosure is not limited thereto. The two linkages 132 are extended linearly from a side of the body 131 facing the first body 110 and are pivotally connected to the second side S2 of the supporting portion 111. Two opposite edges of the body 131 have sliding rails O respectively to constitute the guiding portion 133.
The sliding portion 121 of the second body 120 has a receiving groove 1211 and two sliders 1212. The receiving groove 1211 is disposed at a bottom surface of the second body 120 and configured to receive and cover the body 131 of the palm component 130. The two sliders 1212 are disposed at the bottom surface of the second body 120 and are slidably connected to the two sliding rails O on the body 131, respectively. Further, the second body 120 is moved relative to the palm component 130 by the sliding portion 121 to receive the palm component 130 in the receiving groove 1211 or to make the palm component 130 be protruded from the receiving groove 1211.
In the exemplary embodiment, the second body 120 has at least one engaging groove 122 disposed at the bottom surface of the second body 120 and communicating with the receiving groove 1211. When the electronic device 100 is in a closed state (see
