US 2014/0192503 A1 · ROTARY MECHANISM AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE THEREOF

Abstract

A rotary mechanism includes a supporter and a bracket. The supporter includes a body, a pivot hole structure and a guiding portion. The pivot hole structure and the guiding portion are disposed on the body. A slot is formed on the pivot hole structure. A top of the guiding portion is a cam structure. The bracket pivots to the supporter. The bracket includes a frame, a constraining portion and a pivoting portion. A bottom of the frame contacts against the guiding portion and slides relative to the cam structure. The constraining portion and the pivoting portion are disposed on the frame. The constraining portion can contact against the body to constrain rotation of the bracket relative to the supporter. The pivoting portion slidably pivots to the slot. The pivoting portion moves along the slot to contact the constraining portion against the body.

Dependent claims

A rotary mechanism for fixing a position of an electronic component relative to a base in a rotatable manner, the rotary mechanism comprising:

a supporter, the supporter comprising:
a body disposed on the base;
a pivot hole structure disposed on a side of the body, a slot being formed on the pivot hole structure;
and
a guiding portion disposed on the body, a top of the guiding portion being a cam structure;
and
a bracket pivoting to the supporter, the bracket comprising:
a frame for holding the electronic component, a bottom of the frame contacting against the guiding portion to slide relative to the cam structure;
a constraining portion disposed on an edge of the frame adjacent to the supporter, the constraining portion contacting against the body to constrain rotation of the bracket relative to the supporter;
and
a pivoting portion disposed on a side of the frame and slidably pivoting to the slot on the pivot hole structure, the pivoting portion moving along the slot so that the constraining portion contacts against the body.
