  • Publication number: 20100154166
    Abstract: A hinge is mounted between a cover and a base of an electronic device. A lid covers the hinge and is attached securely to the base. The hinge has an arced surface and a rotating shaft. When the cover is pivoted to a certain angle, the rotating shaft abuts the arced surface to lift up the cover so the cover is selectively distant away from the lid. Therefore, the shape of the electronic device does not need to be disfigured and the cover still does not bump against the lid.

  • Patent number: 7735797
    Abstract: An adjustable pivoting device for panel display has a body and a mounting assembly. The body has a controller that is capable of longitudinal movement and two motivating elements that are capable of transversal movement. The controller has actuating slots formed slantwise through the controller. Each motivating element has a latch and an engaging element slidably mounted in one of the actuating slots of the controller, thereby the motivating elements are moved transversely when the controller is moved. The mounting assembly is pivotally mounted with a stand and has two latching elements that rotate simultaneously with the stand and has multiple teeth selectively engage the latches to limit a rotation of the stand. Accordingly, the adjustable pivoting device allows the stand to be adjusted to different positions for freely changing a status or an angle of the panel display and is convenient in use.

  • Publication number: 20100139043
    Abstract: A hinge assembly has a pintle, a rotating bracket, a sliding bracket, a mounting bracket, a compression assembly and an elastic member. The rotating bracket is mounted rotatably around the shaft and has a latching portion. The sliding bracket is attached securely to the pintle and has a track. The mounting bracket and a latching arm. The latching arm selectively presses against the latching portion to hold the hinge closed. The compression assembly is mounted around and expands when the pintle is rotated to close. The elastic member is compressed by expansion of the compression assembly so automatically rotates the pintle to open. Therefore, with the hinge mounted in an electronic device, when the latching portion is slid out of the latching arm, the hinge is forced to open by the elastic member and compression assembly so a cover pops up and is opened easily.

  • Patent number: 7661176
    Abstract: A hinge assembly attaches a cover pivotally to a base of an electronic device and has a stationary leaf, a bushing and a pivoting leaf The stationary leaf is attached to the base and has a barrel and two slots. Each slot is formed in the barrel. The bushing is mounted in the barrel and has two end edges and two securing members. Each securing member is formed from the bushing and is mounted in the corresponding slot. The pivoting leaf is mounted rotatably in the bushing and attaches to the cover. Consequently, the hinge has a small bushing and uses less material reducing the size and weight of the hinge assembly, and the same of the electronic device.

  • Patent number: 7636133
    Abstract: A flat panel display (FPD) support has a supporting bracket, a connecting assembly pivotally connected to the supporting bracket and a leaf spring mounted between the supporting bracket and the connecting assembly. The connecting assembly is attached to an FPD to allow the supporting bracket to hold the FPD on a plane. The leaf spring pulls the supporting bracket toward the panel bracket and a weight of the FPD allows the FPD and the supporting bracket leaning to each other to stay in a specific angle. Therefore, a visual angle of the FPD relative to a plane is easily adjusted by the supporting assembly. The FPD with the FPD support is light, simple and portable and is conveniently packaged for sale or transportation and does not occupy a large area when in use.

  • Publication number: 20090311073
    Abstract: A resilient flat washer has a ring and a keyed wing. The ring has an inner annular edge, an outer annular edge and at least one inner abrasion flange. The at least one inner abrasion flange is formed longitudinally on the inner annular flange. The keyed wing is formed transversely on the outer annular edge. A hinge has a stationary leaf, multiple resilient flat washers and a pintle. The resilient flat washers are mounted in a sleeve of the stationary leaf. The pintle is mounted rotatably in the rings and has a pivoting rod. The pivoting rod abuts the at least one inner abrasion flange, so the contact area between each resilient flat washer and the pivoting rod are increased. Therefore, the friction provided by the resilient flat washers is enhanced.

  • Patent number: 7621021
    Abstract: A transversely movable hinge has a central bracket and two tilt hinge assemblies and is mounted between a cover and a base of an electronic device to allow the cover to pivot and rotate relative to the base. Each tilt hinge assembly has a pivoting leaf with a mounting segment, a torque washer and a biasing assembly. The torque washer is rotated relative to the mounting segment and has at least one protrusion. The biasing assembly presses the torque washer so the protrusion rubs against the mounting segment to provide a larger force to hold the cover at any visual angle. Then even if the resilient force of the biasing assembly is reduced to allow the cover to be easily moved transversely relative to the base, the hinge can still provide enough holding force.

  • Patent number: 7621020
    Abstract: A pivotal-axis changing hinge has a stationary leaf, a pivoting leaf, a pintle assembly and a cam. The pivoting leaf and stationary leaf are respectively connected securely to a cover having a rear edge and a keyway and a base having an elongated gudgeon. A parabolic edge is formed at an edge near the elongated gudgeon. The pintle assembly is mounted through the keyway and pivotally through the elongated gudgeon to allow the leaves to pivot along a pivotal axis of the pintle assembly. The cam is mounted on the pintle assembly, rotates simultaneously with the pintle assembly and has a protrusion mounted slidably on the parabolic edge to move the pintle assembly and the cover perpendicularly away from the base when the cover is pivoting. Consequently, the proximal edge of the cover is kept from colliding with the base and the rotating angle of the cover is expanded.
