Abstract

A supporting mechanism for supporting a first module on a second module is disclosed. The first module is pivoted to the second module via a hinge assembly. The supporting mechanism includes a first member and a second member. The first member includes a sliding end slidably installed on the first module. The second member is connected to the first member in a relatively slidable manner. The second member includes a pivoting end pivoted to the second module. When the first module is rotated along an expanding direction with respect to the second module, the sliding end of the first member slides along a first direction toward the hinge assembly such that the first member slides along a second direction further away from the second member.
