Abstract
An electronic device includes a main body and a support mechanism assembled within the main body. The main body includes a bottom plate and a hinged portion adjacent to an edge of the main body, the bottom plate defines an ejecting hole. The support mechanism includes a rotating assembly rotatably hinged to the hinged portion, and a support assembly movably assembled with the rotating assembly, a distal end of the support assembly aligns with the ejecting hole of the bottom plate. The support assembly is capable of being partially ejected out by the rotating assembly to pass through the ejecting hole of the bottom plate, and exposed to the outside of the main body to support the whole electronic device in a use mode. The support assembly is also capable of being retracted back into the main body in an unused state.
