Abstract: A hinge and an electronic device using the same are disclosed. The hinge includes a fixing member, a shaft member, and a spring member. The fixing member includes a pivoting portion and a fixing portion. The pivoting portion and the fixing portion are respectively fixed to opposite ends of the fixing member. The shaft member is pivotably connected to the pivoting portion. The spring member includes a spring body, a first end, and a second end. The spring body is between the first end and the second end. The first end is fixed to the shaft member. The second end is fixed to the fixing portion. When the shaft member rotates, the shaft member drives the spring body to twist via the first end.

Abstract: A multi-channel hinge has a stationary sleeve, multiple resilient spacers and a shaft. The stationary sleeve has an axial gudgeon and multiple channels. Each resilient spacer has a tubular part mounted in the gudgeon, a tab mounted in a corresponding channel and a neck formed between the tubular part and the tab. The shaft is mounted through the tubular parts. Since the necks of the resilient spacers are offset from each other, the spring back forces are separated. Therefore, the spring back angle of the multi-channel hinge is smaller and the multi-channel hinge provides stabler torque.
