Abstract

A handle structure of a portable electronic device, designed for users to hold or carry the portable electronic device and freely adjust the fixation angle of the handle. The invention comprises a base, a connector, a handle and a fastener. The base is installed beside the electronic device. The connector has a plurality of grooves on its surface pivotally connecting the handle and the base. Inside the base is a fastener that is in a locked position while in a normal state so that it sticks into a groove and locks the handle. The fastener may also be in a released position so that it releases from the groove to allow the handle to rotate and change angles.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . A handle structure of a portable electronic device comprising: 
 a handle;    a base fixed to side of the electronic device and having a holding hole;    a connector having a plurality of grooves on the circumferential surface and penetrating said holding hole to fix to said handle for rotating said handle; and    a fastener having a spring to define one locking position inletting into said groove to lock said handle and one released position withdrawing from said groove to allow said handle to rotate and take a new angle.    
     
     
         2 . The handle of electronic device of  claim 1 , wherein said connector having a plurality of round grooves on the surface.  
     
     
         3 . The handle of electronic device of  claim 1 , wherein said connector having a plurality of square grooves on the surface.  
     
     
         4 . The handle of electronic device of  claim 1 , wherein said connector having a plurality of V-shaped grooves on the surface.  
     
     
         5 . The handle of electronic device of  claim 1 , wherein said connector having a plurality of dovetailed grooves on the surface.  
     
     
         6 . The handle of electronic device of  claim 1 , wherein said spring is a compression spring.  
     
     
         7 . The handle of electronic device of  claim 1 , wherein said fastener is a steel ball.  
     
     
         8 . The handle of electronic device of  claim 1 , wherein said fastener is a cylindrical bolt.
