Abstract
An electronic device. The electronic device comprises a main body, a bracket supporting the main body, a shaft rotatably joined with the bracket and comprising a flange, a base joined with the shaft, and a block slidably joined with the shaft and comprising a notch corresponding to the flange. The base is folded by rotation of the shaft. When the shaft rotates to a predetermined angle, the block slides to a first position in which the notch engages the flange to latch the shaft, thereby positioning the base.
Claims18
A positioning mechanism of a base, comprising:
- a bracket;
- a shaft rotatably joined with the bracket and comprising a flange, the base being joined with the shaft;
- a block slidably joined with the shaft and comprising a notch corresponding to the flange;
- and
- a push element joined with the block;
- wherein when the push element is pushed to move the block so as to separate the notch from the flange, the shaft is rotatable, the base is folded by rotating the shaft, when the shaft rotates to a predetermined angle, the block is moved to a first position so that the notch is engaged with the flange to latch the shaft, whereby the base is positioned.
