Electronic device

摘要

An electronic device 100 includes: a hinge mechanism 120 configured to rotate, on a connection portion in which a first casing 101 is connected to a second casing 102, the second casing 102 to switch the electronic device 100 from a closed position through an opened position to an inverted position, and configured to rotate according to the second casing 102 being rotated when switching between the opened position and the inverted position is performed; and a leg component 140 configured to switch, by rotating with the hinge mechanism 120 when switching between the opened position and the inverted position is performed, between a state where the leg component 140 projects from the back surface of the first casing 101 in the opened position, and a state where the leg component 140 projects from the top surface of the first casing 101 in the inverted position.

1. An electronic device, comprising:
a first casing having an operation section on a top surface; a second casing having a display on a front surface; a hinge mechanism configured to connect the first casing to the second casing, the hinge mechanism configured to rotate the second casing, relative to the first casing, on a connection portion in which the first casing is connected to the second casing, to allow the electronic device to switch from a closed position where the front surface of the second casing overlaps the top surface of the first casing, through an opened position where the second casing is raised relative to the first casing, to an inverted position where a back surface of the second casing overlaps a back surface of the first casing, the hinge mechanism configured to rotate according to the second casing being rotated when switching between the opened position and the inverted position is performed; and a leg component configured to act as a leg for the electronic device, to rotate with the hinge mechanism when switching between the opened position and the inverted position is performed, and to switch, by rotating with the hinge mechanism, between a state where the leg component projects from the back surface of the first casing in the opened position, and a state where the leg component projects from the top surface of the first casing in the inverted position, wherein the leg component is mounted movably to the hinge mechanism such that the leg component switches between a short-leg state where the leg component projects from the back surface of the first casing in the opened position, and a long-leg state where the leg component projects from the back surface of the first casing in the opened position by a projecting length greater than that in the short-leg state, wherein the electronic device further comprises a leg switching portion configured to switch, when the leg component is in the long-leg state, the leg component to a position in the short-leg state while the opened position is being switched to the inverted position, and wherein the leg switching portion is an end portion on a far side of the first casing, and the leg switching portion is configured to abut against the leg component that rotates with the hinge mechanism and move the leg component, to switch the leg component to a position in the short-leg state, while the opened position is being switched to the inverted position.
