A pivoting mechanism is pivotally connected to a first body and a second body, and includes a rotating shaft, a linkage rod, a cover, a limiting element, a limiting slider, and a bracket. A central region of a pivoting portion of the linkage rod deviates from an axis of the rotating shaft. The limiting element is assembled to the cover and includes a protruding portion located in a first slide groove of the limiting slider and a second slide groove of the bracket. A second side of the linkage rod is connected to the limiting slider and the bracket. A shape of the first slide groove is different from that of the second slide groove. When the rotating shaft rotates, the limiting slider is driven via the linkage rod, so as to drive the protruding portion of the limiting element sliding in the first slide groove and the second slide groove, such that the cover is movable between a deployed position and a closed position.
