Abstract

A linkage and a supporter are attached to a back of the housing via a magnetic element of an electronic device with a magnetic supporter. The supporter is drawn to a supporting position via the linkage to support the electronic device body and provide various angles for the user to easily operate the electronic device in several modes. Moreover, since the linkage and the supporter are attached via the magnetic element, when the electronic device body is overloaded, for example, a user applies overlarge force to operate a touch panel, the magnetic element is detached from the electronic device body to prevent the linkage and the supporter from being damaged or permanently destroyed.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An electronic device, comprising:
 an electronic device body; and   a magnetic supporting structure, including:
 a magnetic element attached to a back of the electronic device; 
 a linkage, wherein an end of the linkage is pivotally connected with the magnetic element; and 
 a supporter pivotally connected with the other end of the linkage, wherein the supporter is kept at a storing position at the back of the electronic device via the linkage, the supporter is drawn via the linkage to a supporting position at which the electronic device is supported, and when the supporter is at the supporting position, the magnetic element is detached from the electronic device once the electronic device is overloaded. 
   
   
   
       2 . The electronic device according to  claim 1 , further comprising a containing space formed at the back of the electronic device body and allowing the magnetic element to be disposed and attached to. 
   
   
       3 . The electronic device according to  claim 1 , further comprising a slideway allowing the magnetic element to be attached to. 
   
   
       4 . The electronic device according to  claim 1 , wherein the supporter comprises a cross-rod, the width of the cross-rod is equal to the width of the electronic device, two connection portions are extended from two ends of the cross-rod, respectively, and the connection portion is pivotally connected with the back of the electronic device. 
   
   
       5 . The electronic device according to  claim 1 , wherein the linkage comprises a first sliding block and a second sliding block cooperate with each other. 
   
   
       6 . The electronic device according to  claim 5 , wherein the first sliding block has a groove allowing the second sliding block to slide. 
   
   
       7 . The electronic device according to  claim 6 , wherein the second sliding block is fixed at the first sliding block via a fixing element passing the groove.
