  • Electronic device with a pivoting mechanism capable of providing different torques
    Patent number: 9086842
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a display module, a supporting frame and a pivoting mechanism connected to the display module and the supporting frame. The display module can pivot relative to the supporting frame. The pivoting mechanism includes two fixing components connected to the display module, two shaft components passing through the supporting frame, two locating components respectively disposed on an inner side of the supporting frame, two resilient components, two pulling components and two cam components. An end of each resilient component is connected to the corresponding locating component. An end of each pulling component is connected to the other end of the corresponding resilient component. A side of each cam component is connected to the corresponding fixing component, and the other side of each cam component is connected to the corresponding shaft component. The other end of the pulling component winds around the corresponding cam component.
