Electronic device and connection port thereof
Abstract
A portable electronic device including a main body and a connection port is provided. The main body has a containing cavity. The connection port includes a supporting component and a connector. The supporting component is slidably disposed at the main body along a sliding direction and slides between an accommodating position and an operation position relative to the main body. The connector is disposed on the supporting component and has a plugging direction. When the supporting component is located at the accommodating position, the connector is contained in the containing cavity and the plugging direction is perpendicular to the sliding direction. When the supporting component is located at the operation position, the connector is located out of the containing cavity, and the supporting component has a tilting angle relative to the main body.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A portable electronic device, comprising:
a main body, having a containing cavity; and a connection port, comprising:
a supporting component, slidably disposed at the main body along a sliding direction and sliding between an accommodating position and an operation position relative to the main body; and
a connector, disposed on the supporting component and having a plugging direction, wherein the connector is contained in the containing cavity and the plugging direction is perpendicular to the sliding direction when the supporting component is located at the accommodating position, and the connector is located out of the containing cavity and the supporting component has a tilting angle relative to the main body when the supporting component is located at the operation position.
2 . The portable electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein a height of the connector in the plugging direction is shorter than a length of the connector in the sliding direction when the supporting component is located at the accommodating position.
3 . The portable electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the main body is placed on a surface, and when the supporting component is located at the operation position, the supporting component is rotated relative to the main body to lean against the surface so as to drive the connector to tilt from the surface.
4 . The portable electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the containing cavity has an opening, the connector is moved in or out of the containing cavity through the opening, the supporting component has a covering plate, and the covering plate covers the opening when the supporting component is located at the accommodating position.
5 . The portable electronic device according to claim 4 , wherein when the supporting component is located at the accommodating position, the covering plate and the main body are co-planar.
6 . The portable electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the connection port further comprises a connection wire, the main body has a circuit board therein, the connection wire is connected between the connector and the circuit board and flexed with the supporting component sliding and tilting.
7 . The portable electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the main body is placed on a surface, when the supporting component is located at the operation position, the supporting component tilts and slides relative to the main body to lean against the surface so as to drive the connector to tilt from the surface.
8 . A connection port, adapted to a portable electronic device comprising a main body having a containing cavity, the connection port comprising:
a supporting component, slidably disposed at the main body along a sliding direction and sliding between an accommodating position and an operation position relative to the main body; and a connector, disposed on the supporting component and having a plugging direction, wherein the connector is contained in the containing cavity and the plugging direction is perpendicular to the sliding direction when the supporting component is located at the accommodating position, and the connector is located out of the containing cavity and the supporting component has a tilting angle relative to the main body when the supporting component is located at the operation position.
9 . The connection port according to claim 8 , wherein a height of the connector in the plugging direction is shorter than a length of the connector in the sliding direction when the supporting component is located at the accommodating position.
10 . The connection port according to claim 8 , wherein the main body is placed on a surface, and when the supporting component is located at the operation position, the supporting component tilts and slides relative to the main body to lean against the surface so as to drive the connector to tilt from the surface.
11 . The connection port according to claim 8 , wherein the main body is placed on a surface, and when the supporting component is located at the operation position, the supporting component is rotated relative to the main body to lean against the surface so as to drive the connector to tilt from the surface.
12 . The connection port according to claim 8 , wherein the containing cavity has an opening, the connector is moved in or out of the containing cavity through the opening, the supporting component has a covering plate, and the covering plate covers the opening when the supporting component is located at the accommodating position.
13 . The connection port according to claim 12 , wherein when the supporting component is located at the accommodating position, the covering plate and the main body are co-planar.
14 . The connection port according to claim 8 , further comprising a connection wire, wherein the main body has a circuit board therein, and the connection wire is connected between the connector and the circuit board and flexed with the supporting component sliding and tilting.
15 . The portable electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the main body has a stopping structure located in the containing cavity, and the supporting component leans against the stopping structure to limit the tilting angle of the supporting component when the supporting component is located at the operation position.
16 . The portable electronic device according to claim 15 , wherein the stopping structure has at least one sliding slot, the supporting component has a sliding portion slidably disposed in the sliding slot, and when the supporting component is located at the operation position, the sliding portion leans against one end of the sliding portion so as to limit the tilting angle of the supporting component.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
