Abstract
A door mechanism includes a main body whereon an opening is formed. The main body is for shielding a slot on a casing of an electronic device. The door mechanism further includes a first resilient component. One end of the first resilient component is fixed inside the main body. The door mechanism further includes a shaft including a pivoting portion pivoted to the casing of the electronic device so that the main body is capable of rotating relative to the casing. The shaft further includes an extending portion. One end of the extending portion is connected to the pivoting portion, and the other end of the extending portion passes through the opening and is connected to the other end of the first resilient component. The main body is capable of moving relative to the pivoting portion due to deformation of the first resilient component.
