The upper housing defines a first latching member (1112) therein. The lower housing defines a second latching member (121) therein. The protecting component is assembled between the upper housing and the lower housing for preventing dust and vapor from entering the electronic device and defines a first latching portion (1313) corresponding to the first latching member and a second latching portion (1314) corresponding to the second latching member. The first latching portion and the second latching member respectively cooperate with the first latching member and the second latching member to assemble the upper housing, the lower housing and the protecting component together.

Abstract: A hinge assembly (200) includes a housing (12), a shaft (11), a fixing pin (14), a transposition mechanism (13) and a first spring (16). The housing has a circumferential wall defining a manual slot (121) and an automatic slot (123). Each of the manual slot and the automatic slot runs through a circumferential wall thereof. The shaft defines a pin hole (1141), and the shaft is engaged in the housing. The fixing pin passes through the pin hole of the shaft. One end of the fixing pin is alternatively received in the manual slot or the automatic slot. The transposition mechanism is configured for switching the pin from the manual slot to the automatic slot. The first spring provides an elastic force causing the housing to move relative to the shaft when the pin breaks away from the manual slot.
