Embodiment

See also Fig. 1, the notebook computer 100 (electronic installation) of present embodiment is made of a main frame 110 and a LCD Panel 120, and the end below LCD Panel 120 pushes away by one to be put/push away locking-type hinge mechanism (push to release/lock hinge) 102 and be connected in main frame 110.It should be noted that, pushing away putting/push away locking-type hinge mechanism 102 can be to adopt a known structure, that is to say, LCD Panel 120 can be put/push away locking-type hinge mechanism 102 and come main frame 110 is split entire rotation mutually by pushing away, and put/push away a button (not shown) in the locking-type hinge mechanism 102 when pushing away when being pressed, LCD Panel 120 can be located away to push away puts/pushes away locking-type hinge mechanism 102 (or main frame 110).

Please cooperate and consult Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, notebook computer 100 also includes a holder 130, a rotary seat 140, one first setting element 150, one second setting element 160, a holding shim 170, a nut 180 and a cover plate 190.

Holder 130 is fixed on the main frame 110.Say that more specifically as shown in Figure 1, holder 130 is fixed on the corner of main frame 110.In addition, holder 130 also has two pivot holes 131.

Rotary seat 140 is to be connected in holder 130 in rotating mode.Say that more specifically rotary seat 140 has one first pivot 141 and one second pivot, 142, the first pivots 141 are arranged among the two pivot holes 131 of holder 130.Particularly, first pivot 141 is interval in second pivot 142, and the axis normal of first pivot 141 is in the axis of second pivot 142.As mentioned above, rotary seat 140 carries out first direction A rotation by first pivot 141 with respect to holder 130.In addition, as shown in Figure 3, the structure that the rotary seat 140 and second pivot 142 thereof have hollow.

LCD Panel 120 is to be connected in rotary seat 140 in rotating mode.Say that more specifically second pivot 142 of rotary seat 140 is arranged among the LCD Panel 120, therefore, LCD Panel 120 can be carried out second direction B rotation with respect to rotary seat 140 by second pivot 142.Particularly, the rotary middle spindle of second direction B is perpendicular to the rotary middle spindle of first direction A.In addition, LCD Panel 120 also must be electrically connected at main frame 110 by a signal wire S, and this signal wire S is via second pivot 142 of hollow and rotary seat 140 and be connected to main frame 110.

First setting element 150 is arranged on second pivot 142 of rotary seat 140, and be fixed on the LCD Panel 120, and second setting element 160 wears simultaneously and be fixed on second pivot 142 of rotary seat 140, and is connected to first setting element 150.First setting element 150 and second setting element 160 all are position of rotation or the angles that is used for locating LCD Panel 120.Say that more specifically first setting element 150 has a plurality of recess 151, these recess 151 are that the mode with circular arrangement forms on first setting element 150, and second setting element 160 has at least one teat 161.As mentioned above, when LCD Panel 120 is carried out second direction B rotation by second pivot 142 and with respect to rotary seat 140, first setting element 150 can be along with LCD Panel 120 rotations (because first setting element 150 is to be fixed on the LCD Panel 120), second setting element 160 then keeps motionless (because second setting element 160 is to be fixed on second pivot 142), at this moment, one of them recess 151 on first setting element 150 can be optionally engage with teat 161 on second setting element 160, thereby can reach the position of rotation of locating LCD Panel 120 or the purpose of angle.In addition, above-mentioned recess 151 and teat 161 are not limited to be formed separately on first setting element 150 and second setting element 160, that is to say, a plurality of recess and teat also optionally are formed separately on second setting element 160 and first setting element 150, and can reach the position of rotation of location LCD Panel 120 or the purpose of angle equally.In addition, the number of above-mentioned recess can also make at least one into, and the number of teat can also make into a plurality of, and optionally be formed separately on second setting element 160 or first setting element 150, and can reach the position of rotation of location LCD Panel 120 or the purpose of angle equally.

Holding shim 170 also is to be arranged on second pivot 142 of rotary seat 140, and is adjacent to second setting element 160.180 on nut is to be screwed together on second pivot 142 of rotary seat 140, and is connected to holding shim 170.Therefore, LCD Panel 120 can firmly be rotated on second pivot 142.

Cover plate 190 also is to be arranged on second pivot 142 of rotary seat 140.Say that more specifically cover plate 190 and is fixed on the LCD Panel 120 between rotary seat 140 and LCD Panel 120.In the present embodiment, cover plate 190 mainly is the aesthetic that is used for promoting LCD Panel 120.

Next the LCD Panel 120 of notebook computer 100 and the mode of operation between the main frame 110 will be described.

At first, as shown in Figure 1, still putting/push away locking-type hinge mechanism 102 by pushing away in LCD Panel 120 is connected under the situation of main frame 110, when the user pulls LCD Panel 120, LCD Panel 120 only can be rotated according to first direction A with respect to holder 130 by first pivot 141 of rotary seat 140, that is LCD Panel 120 only can be opened entire rotation with respect to main frame 110.

On the other hand, when the user pushes when pushing away the button of putting/push away locking-type hinge mechanism 102, an end of LCD Panel 120 can be located away to push away puts/pushes away locking-type hinge mechanism 102 (or main frame 110), as shown in Figure 4.Then, the user can according to counterclockwise rotate LCD Panel 120 (that is, LCD Panel 120 is rotated according to second direction B with respect to rotary seat 140 by second pivot 142, and rotary seat 140 keeps motionless), turn to as shown in Figure 5 position up to LCD Panel 120, at this moment, LCD Panel 120 is positioned at the side of main frame 110, and the user can be connected to another display screen M on the main frame 110.Then, the user can be simultaneously with LCD Panel 120 and display screen M as operation interface, perhaps the user can change by with display screen M as operation interface.In addition, in the rotary course of above LCD Panel 120, the user can utilize the interworking between first setting element 150 and second setting element 160 to decide or learn the position of rotation or the angle of LCD Panel 120.

As mentioned above, when LCD Panel 120 turns to as shown in Figure 5 position, the user also can pull LCD Panel 120 and adjust its inclination angle, and its adjustment mode is to make rotary seat 140 rotate according to first direction A by pulling LCD Panel 120.

In addition, it should be noted that, notebook computer of the present utility model is not limited to have known pushing away and puts/push away locking-type hinge mechanism, in other words, notebook computer of the present utility model also can only be connected in LCD Panel and main frame with above-mentioned rotating mechanism, and its can reach equally between aforesaid LCD Panel and the main frame open entire with separate rotary manipulation.Though the utility model is that example describes with the notebook computer with LCD Panel again; yet other have the electronic installation of main frame and display screen, also ought be considered as protection domain of the present utility model so long as utilize above-mentioned rotating mechanism to be connected between display screen and the main frame.

Though the utility model is disclosed in preferred embodiment; yet it is not in order to limit the utility model; any person skilled in the art person is not in breaking away from spirit and scope of the present utility model; therefore when the change that can make all equivalences or replacement, protection domain of the present utility model is when looking accompanying being as the criterion that the application's claim scope defined.
