Abstract
The supporting apparatus includes a base, a device supporting portion, a device connecting portion, and a linking rod. The base includes a front end and a rear end; the device supporting portion includes a supporting element and a first rotating shaft, wherein the first rotating shaft is pivotally connected to the front end of the base and connected with the supporting element for allowing the supporting element to rotate along the first rotating shaft such that the supporting apparatus has a closed state and a first open state. When the supporting apparatus rotates to the first open state, the connecting element and the linking rod form a first connecting element opening angle θ21 for allowing the connecting element to connect with the first lateral surface of an electronic device and the supporting element to contact a bottom surface of the electronic device.
