Abstract
An electronic device is provided, including a first module, a second module movable relative to the first module, and an elastic component. The second module has a slot and a convex surface on opposite sides thereof, wherein a sliding portion of the first module is movably received in the slot. When the second module moves relative to the first module to a closed or open position, the sliding portion abuts a first or second end surface of the slot. The elastic component is disposed in the first module and has a retractable end portion contacting the convex surface. When the second module moves with respect to the first module, the end portion slides along the convex surface and exerts an elastic force on the second module.

An electronic device, comprising:
- a first module, comprising a sliding portion;
- a second module movable with respect to the first module, comprising a convex surface and a slot disposed on opposite sides of the second module, wherein the sliding portion is movably received in the slot, the sliding portion contacts a first end surface of the slot when the second module moves relative to the first module to a closed position, and the sliding portion contacts a second end surface of the slot when the second module moves relative to the first module to an open position;
- and
- a resilient member disposed in the first module, comprising a retractable end portion abutting the convex surface, wherein when the second module moves relative to the first module, the end portion moves along the convex surface and exerts an elastic force on the second module.
