Patent ID: 8514556

Claim:
An electronic device, comprising: a main body comprising a back support surface, and a front display surface opposite to the back support surface; the back support surface defining a concave portion having a bottom surface substantially parallel to the back support surface, and an assembling recess recessed from the bottom surface of the concave portion, wherein the concave portion comprises a bottom surface substantially parallel to the back support face and a stepped portion formed at one end of the concave portion, the stepped portion comprises a limit surface and a blocking surface connecting to the limit surface; and a support mechanism adjustably hinged to the back support surface of the main body to support the main body, and received within the concave portion of the main body when configured in an original state; the support mechanism comprising: a support member, and a pivoting assembly comprising: a fixing member; a sliding member slidably mounted on the fixing member, and fixed to the support member; a pivoting shaft rotatably hinged to the fixing member and assembled within the assembling recess of the main body; and a torsion spring sleeved on and coiling around the pivot shaft, the torsion spring comprising two assembling legs, one assembling leg of the torsion spring elastically resisting against the fixing member, the other assembling leg elastically resisting against the bottom surface of the assembling recess, wherein when the support member is wholly received in the concave portion, one surface of the support member tightly contacts the blocking surface via an elastic force generated by the torsion spring to securely hold the support member in the concave portion; and when the support member is pushed or moved away from the stepped portion, the support member is rotated relative to the main body by the elastic force generated by the torsion spring to form a preset angle relative to the main body for supporting the main body.
