  • Patent number: 9025329
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a first body, a supporting arm, at least one first hinge, a first coupling member and at least one second coupling member. The first hinge is connected between the first body and the supporting arm. The supporting arm can rotate relatively to the first body through the first hinge. The first coupling member is disposed in the first body. The second coupling member is disposed in the supporting arm. When the second coupling member moves to at least one predetermined position, the first coupling member and the second coupling member are attracted by each other.

  • Patent number: 8848354
    Abstract: A hinge structure suited for connecting between a first body and a second body is provided, such that the first and the second bodies can rotate in relative to each other. The hinge structure includes a first pivoting member, a second pivoting member, and a third pivoting member. The first pivoting member has a first fixing portion fixed to the first body and a first winding portion extending from the first fixing portion. The second pivoting member has a second fixing portion fixed to the first body and a second winding portion extending from the second fixing portion. The third pivoting member is disposed on the second body and has a shaft. The first winding portion and the second winding portion respectively wind around the shaft. The first fixing portion and the second fixing portion are located at opposite sides of the shaft. An electronic device is also provided.
