  • a casing;

    four actuating mechanisms disposed inside the casing, each actuating mechanism comprising;

    a slot structure; and

    an actuating component disposed on an end of the corresponding slot structure; and

    a control module electrically connected to the four actuating mechanisms for switching from a first status to a second status of the portable electronic device as the portable electronic device rotates in a rotating direction so as to drive each actuating component from the end of the slot structure to the other end of the slot structure due to centrifugal force, and when the portable electronic device stops rotating in the rotating direction, each actuating component is maintained at the other end of the slot structure, so as to remain the portable electronic device in the second status.
