Abstract

A portable electronic device with micro-projecting module includes a shell body, a micro-projecting module, a heat-conducting plate and a supporting stand. The shell body has a front lateral plate and a bottom lateral plate adjoining the front lateral plate. The front lateral plate has a front through hole, while the bottom lateral plate has a bottom through hole. The micro-projecting module is arranged in the shell body and has a lens exposing to an outside of the shell body from the front through hole. The heat-conducting plate is arranged in the shell body and is positioned between the micro-projecting module and the bottom through hole. In the meantime, the heat-conducting plate has a heat-absorbing face contacting the micro-projecting module and a heat-dissipating face abutted against the bottom through hole. The supporting stand may be pivoted onto the heat-dissipating face with a closing position substantially parallel to the heat-dissipating face after a rotation and a developing position by rotating a predetermined angle with respect to the heat-dissipating face.

Claims

1. A portable electronic device with micro-projecting module, including:

a shell body, which has a front lateral plate and a bottom lateral plate adjoining the front lateral plate, the front lateral plate having a front through hole, while the bottom lateral plate has a bottom through hole;

a micro-projecting module, which is arranged in the shell body and has a lens exposing to an outside of the shell body from the front through hole;

a heat-conducting plate, which is arranged in the shell body and is positioned between the micro-projecting module and the bottom through hole, and which has a heat-absorbing face contacting the micro-projecting module and a heat-dissipating face abutted against the bottom through hole;

a supporting stand, which may be pivoted onto the heat-dissipating face with a closing position substantially parallel to the heat-dissipating face after a rotation and a developing position by rotating a predetermined angle with respect to the heat-dissipating face; and

a pivoting part projected from and in thermal connectivity with the heat-conducting plate, wherein the pivoting part is provided for pivoting the supporting stand and for placing the supporting stand in thermal connectivity with the heat-conducting plate.

2. The portable electronic device with micro-projecting module according to claim 1, wherein the bottom through hole is positioned at one side of the bottom lateral plate adjoining to the front lateral plate.

3. The portable electronic device with micro-projecting module according to claim 1, wherein the heat-conducting plate is made of a metallic material.

4. The portable electronic device with micro-projecting module according to claim 1, wherein the supporting stand is made of a metallic material.

5. The portable electronic device with micro-projecting module according to claim 4, wherein the supporting stand may be accommodated in the bottom through hole.

6. The portable electronic device with micro-projecting module according to claim 1, wherein the predetermined angle is substantially a vertical angle.
