Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electronic device adapted to a base with a second magnetic member is provided. The base is detachably connected to the electronic device. The electronic device includes a body, a supporting member movably disposed at the body and a first magnetic member disposed at the supporting member. Magnetisms of an end of the second magnetic member and an end of the first magnetic member are the same. When the base is assembled to the body, the second magnetic member repulses the first magnetic member, and the supporting member is driven to move out of the body. An electronic system is also provided.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . An electronic device adapted to a base having a second magnetic member, the base is detachably connected to the electronic device, the electronic device comprising: a body; a supporting member movably disposed at the body; and a first magnetic member disposed on the supporting member; wherein magnetisms of an end of the second magnetic member and an end of the first magnetic member are the same, and when the base is assembled to the body, the second magnetic member repulses the first magnetic member, and the supporting member is driven to move out of the body. 2 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the electronic device further includes a third magnetic member movably disposed at the body, the magnetism of the first magnetic member and the third magnetic member are opposite, and when the base is detached from the electronic device, the third magnetic member attracts the first magnetic member to make the supporting member received in the body. 3 . The electronic device according to claim 2 , wherein the body includes a slot and a moving member, the moving member is movably configured inside the slot, the third magnetic member is disposed at the moving member, the base includes a connecting portion, the second magnetic member is disposed at the connecting portion, when the base is assembled to the body via the combination of the connecting portion and the slot, the second magnetic member is driven by the connecting portion to move out of the body. 4 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein when the base is assembled to the body and moves to a trigger position, the supporting member moves in a direction away from the base. 5 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the body includes a recess structure, the supporting member is received in the recess structure, and the supporting member and the body have a consistent appearance. 6 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , further comprising: a hinge bracket disposed at the body, the hinge bracket includes a guiding slot, the supporting member includes a pivot portion and a protruding rod, the pivot portion extends from a side edge of the supporting member and is movably connected to the guiding slot, the protruding rod extends out of the guiding slot from the pivot portion. 7 . An electronic system, comprising: an electronic device including a body, a supporting member and a first magnetic member, wherein the supporting member is movably disposed at the body to be received in the body or move out of the body, and the first magnetic member is disposed at the supporting member; and a base detachably connected to the body and including a second magnetic member, wherein magnetisms of an end of the second magnetic member and an end of the first magnetic member are the same; wherein when the base is assembled to the body, the second magnetic member repulses the first magnetic member, and the supporting member is driven to move out of the body. 8 . The electronic system according to claim 7 , wherein the electronic device further includes a third magnetic member movably disposed at the body, the magnetism of the first magnetic member and the third magnetic member are opposite, and when the base is detached from the electronic device, the third magnetic member attracts the first magnetic member to make the supporting member received in the body. 9 . The electronic system according to claim 8 , wherein the body includes a slot and a moving member, the moving member is movably configured inside the slot, the third magnetic member is disposed at the moving member, the base includes a connecting portion, the second magnetic member is disposed at the connecting portion, when the base is assembled to the body via the combination of the connecting portion and the slot, the second magnetic member is driven by the connecting portion to move out of the body. 10 . The electronic system according to claim 7 , wherein when the base is assembled to the body and moves to a trigger position, the supporting member moves in a direction away from the base. 11 . The electronic system according to claim 7 , wherein the body includes a recess structure, the supporting member is received in the recess structure, and the supporting member and the body have a consistent appearance. 12 . The electronic system according to claim 7 , wherein the electronic device further comprises: a hinge bracket disposed at the body, the hinge bracket includes a guiding slot, the supporting member includes a pivot portion and a protruding rod, the pivot portion extends from a side edge of the supporting member and is movably connected to the guiding slot, the protruding rod extends out of the guiding slot from the pivot portion.
