Mounting apparatus

Abstract

A mounting apparatus includes a mount, a locking member, a movable projection member, and a first moving mechanism. The mount can mount a first housing in a predetermined positional relationship with the mounting apparatus. The locking member is provided to be movable between an initial position and a position corresponding to a revolving position of a second housing. The locking member can lock the electronic device with the second housing. The movable projection member is disposed to abut the first housing mounted on the mount, and moves in an apparatus thickness direction when the movable projection member abuts the first housing. When the locking member lies at the initial position, and the movable projection member moves in the apparatus thickness direction, the first moving mechanism moves the locking member from the initial position of the locking member to the position corresponding to the revolving position of the second housing.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A mounting apparatus for mounting an electronic device including a first housing and a second housing including a display and a central processing unit, the first housing and the second housing being coupled so as to be relatively revolvable about a first revolving axis center, the mounting apparatus comprising:
 a mount capable of mounting the first housing in a predetermined positional relationship with respect to the mounting apparatus; and   a locking member capable of locking the electronic device with the second housing.
