Abstract: A foldable electronic device includes a first base, a second base, a hinge, a brake, an object sensor, and a controller. The hinge pivotally connects the first base to the second base. The brake is disposed in the hinge. When the first base is expanded with respect to the second base, the object sensor senses whether an object is placed on the second base. When the object sensor senses that the object is placed on the second base, the object sensor sends out a sensed signal. The controller selectively switches on the brake in response to the sensed signal, so as to restrain a rotating angle formed by the first base and the second base.

Abstract: A hinge includes a pivot, two connection members pivotally connected by the pivot, a first magnetic part connected to one of the connection members, a second magnetic part moveably disposed relative to the first magnetic part and kinetically connected to the other one of the connection members, and an adjustment part kinetically connected to the other connection member and urging against the adjustment part. The magnetic moment of the second magnetic part is opposite to that of the first magnetic part. When the two connection members rotate relatively, the other connection member drives the adjustment part and the second magnetic part to rotate relative to the first magnetic part, so as to produce a repulsive moment resisting the rotation and varies with the rotation. A foldable electronic apparatus has the hinge.
