Abstract

A portable electronic system includes a first electronic device, a carrying element and a second electronic device. The first electronic device has a casing. The casing has an accommodating portion located at one side of the casing. The carrying element is connected with the casing and capable of relatively moving between a first position and a second position of the casing. The second electronic device is disposed at the carrying element and coupled to the first electronic device. When the carrying element is located at the first position, the second electronic device is received within the accommodating portion by the carrying element. When the carrying element is located at the second position, the second electronic device is departed from the accommodating portion by the carrying element.

Claims

1. A portable electronic system, comprising:

a first electronic device having a casing, wherein the casing has an accommodating portion located at one side of the casing;

a carrying element connected with the casing and capable of relatively moving between a first position and a second position of the casing; and

a second electronic device disposed at the carrying element and coupled to the first electronic device;

wherein, when the carrying element is located at the first position, the second electronic device is received within the accommodating portion by the carrying element, and when the carrying element is located at the second position, the second electronic device is departed from the accommodating portion by the carrying element.

2. The portable electronic system of claim 1, further comprising:

a link unit disposed at the casing, wherein the carrying element is relatively moving between the first position and the second position of the casing through the link unit.

3. The portable electronic system of claim 2, wherein the link unit comprises at least a sliding rail or a sliding groove, and the carrying element is relatively moving between the first position and the second position of the casing through the sliding rail or the sliding groove.

4. The portable electronic system of claim 2, wherein the link unit comprises at least a pivot shaft portion and a pivot connecting portion, and the carrying element is relatively rotating with respect to the casing through the pivot shaft portion and the pivot connecting portion.

5. The portable electronic system of claim 1, wherein each of the first electronic device and the second electronic device has an individual operation system.

6. The portable electronic system of claim 1, wherein when the carrying element is located at the first position, a display surface of the first electronic device and a display surface of the second electronic device face toward the same direction.

7. The portable electronic system of claim 1, wherein when the carrying element is located at the second position, a display surface of the first electronic device and a display surface of the second electronic device face toward the same direction.

8. The portable electronic system of claim 1, wherein the first electronic device and the second electronic device are coupled by wired or wireless.
