Benefits of technology

[0005] The primary object of the present invention is to provide a supporting easel for notebook computer, whereby a notebook computer could be well furnished in a desired angle.
[0006] Another object of the present invention is to provide a supporting easel for notebook computer, whereby, the wrist ache caused by a lying-flat keyboard can be cured.
[0007] Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a supporting easel for notebook computer, whereby the intake blockaded by wiring to deteriorate heat discharge and air convection effect could be improved.
[0008] In order to realize above objects, two front legs are pivotally jointed with one end of a shaft collet at symmetrical positions, and two rear legs are also pivotally jointed with another end of the shaft collet at symmetrical positions. The front leg is sleeve-jointed with two shanks. A vertical three-way T-pillar is arranged on a front edge of a shank of the front leg, and an upwardly bent terminal is formed at a tail end of the rear leg. By turning the front legs and the rear legs, the supporting easel can be spread wider left and right, then by adjusting the front legs, a suitable length of the front legs could be found such that a notebook computer can be laid on the supporting easel in an ergonomic inclination angle with its front and rear walls fixed flush to the supporting easel.
[0009] The merits of the present invention may be summarized as the following: Since the symmetrical front and rear legs are pivotally jointed with a shaft collet, in which the front legs are adjustable in length and provided with three-way pillars at front edge thereof; and an upwardly bent terminal is formed at a tail end of each rear leg, such that a notebook computer can be laid flat on the supporting easel of the present invention in a proper inclination angle that makes a user feel comfortable in using this computer. Besides, such an ergonomic design can also improve the heat discharge of the computer.

Problems solved by technology

The notebook computer available in market today is very compact and portable, however, the display thereof is found unsuitable in some cases, too short in height for example, and further, when a subordinate keyboard is laid flatted on the desktop, it may result in an ache of wrist and / or elbow.
Besides, the heat discharge of a notebook computer is considered a big problem that always needs improvements as the execution speed of CPU is getting faster and faster, and unfortunately, the USB card and / or the network card seems liable to blockade the air inlet of the notebook computer such that heat inside cannot be discharged smoothly that would usually cause a “computer crash.”

Embodiment Construction

[0018] As illustrated in FIGS. 1-4, the present invention relates to a supporting easel A for notebook computer.

[0019] The supporting easel A comprises two front legs 1 pivotally jointed with one end of a shaft collet 3 at symmetrical positions and two rear legs 2 also pivotally jointed with one end of a shaft collet 3 at symmetrical positions. The front leg 1 comprises a first shank 11 and a second shank 12. A slide rail 111 is formed on a bottom edge of the first shank 11. A slide groove 122 at a position corresponding to the slide rail 111 is formed in the bottom edge of the second shank 12. A front edge of the second shank 12 is a vertical T-pillar 121. The first shank 11 is sleeve-jointed to the second shank 12, and the slide rail 111 can be snap-fastened in the slide groove 122. A tubular sheath 13 is sheathed on the second shank 12. A thimble 14, which is arranged inside the tubular sheath 13, is screw-jointed with the first shank 11 to lock the shanks together. Moreover, a ...

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates generally to a supporting easel for notebook computer, and particularly to a supporting easel for notebook computer, which could be adjusted rotationally and extendedly. [0003] 2. The Prior Arts [0004] The notebook computer available in market today is very compact and portable, however, the display thereof is found unsuitable in some cases, too short in height for example, and further, when a subordinate keyboard is laid flatted on the desktop, it may result in an ache of wrist and / or elbow. Besides, the heat discharge of a notebook computer is considered a big problem that always needs improvements as the execution speed of CPU is getting faster and faster, and unfortunately, the USB card and / or the network card seems liable to blockade the air inlet of the notebook computer such that heat inside cannot be discharged smoothly that would usually cause a “computer crash.”SUMMARY OF THE ...
