Problems solved by technology

This kind of tight fit between the two by means of precision fit requires a very high accuracy of component dimensions, and the cumulative tolerance of the two components needs to be considered when mating. On the one hand, the manufacturing difficulty is increased, and on the other hand, the processing cost is also greatly increased. promote
[0004] In summary, the main disadvantage of the known pivots for laptops is the complexity of the components, not only the high cost of the components but also the inconvenience of assembly
As a result, the prior art notebook computer has a bottleneck in cost reduction. Under the current trend of low-cost notebook computers, the aforementioned shortcomings of the known pivots have gradually become an obstacle to market competition.

Embodiment Construction

[0021] The invention provides a foldable electronic device, which pivotally connects the first body and the second body of the electronic device through a hinge device, so that the first body and the second body can be folded and unfolded relative to each other.

[0022] see Figure 2A and Figure 2B . Figure 2A and Figure 2B Shown is a schematic diagram of the application of the hinge device according to the first embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2A and Figure 2B The hinge device is applied to a foldable mobile phone as an example, but in practice, the hinge device of the present invention can be applied to other foldable devices, such as foldable game consoles, foldable multimedia players, and notebook computers.

[0023] Such as Figure 2A and Figure 2B As shown, the hinge device of the present invention comprises a pair of foldable hinge parts 20 . In practical applications, the hinge portion 20 can be made of flexible materials, such as plastic mate...

Abstract

The invention provides a folding-type electronic device which is provided with a hub device that is used for matching and pivotally connecting a first body and a second body. The hub device comprises a pair of foldable hub parts, wherein each hub part is provided with a folding line so as to divide the hub part into a first connecting part and a second connecting part; the first connecting part of each hub part is connected with the first body, and the second connecting part of each hub part is connected with the second body. The hub device has very simplified structure, can effectively reduce the manufacturing cost and is easy to assemble and maintain.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electronic device, in particular to a foldable electronic device. Background technique [0002] see figure 1 . figure 1 Shown is an exploded view of a known hinge for a laptop computer. The notebook computer pivot mainly includes a fixing base 1 with a coupling hole, a bushing 2 passing through the coupling hole, a pipe reed 3 bent to resemble a question mark, and a rotating shaft 4 . Generally speaking, the above components need to be buried in the notebook computer, and many screws are needed to fix the components. [0003] In assembly, the rotating shaft 4 needs to pass through the tube reed 3 and be inserted into the bushing 2 together. The notebook computer pivot pivots through the rotating shaft 4 and utilizes the pipe reed 3 to provide a tight torsion, so that the pivot produces a positioning function. In addition, in this known design, since the fixing seat 1 and the bushing 2 are two pieces, the bushing 2 is ti...
