[0003] To achieve the above actions, a set of cam devices can be used to determine the torque performance of this type of hinge at different angles. When this type of hinge is opened or closed, the opening angle or closing angle must cross the cam. The same torque turning point on the cam can activate the automatic opening and closing function; for example, when the curved surface of the cam is designed so that the automatic opening angle is 30 degrees, when the user opens the mobile phone, the user needs to open it more than 30 degrees by hand. After that, the hinge will automatically open the cover to 180 degrees; however, during the closing process, the user must also push the cover from a position of 180 degrees to a position less than 30 degrees before the phone closes automatically. The angle to be moved is very large, which is not very convenient for users

Abstract

The electronic equipment includes body having first fixing hole, cover having second fixing hole, hinge assembly making rotation of cover relative to body, and positioned at pivot joint between the body and the cover. The hinge assembly consists of sub base, elastic component, first cam, second cam and third cam. Electronic equipment is positioned inside second fixing hole. First cam positioned inside second fixing hole adjacent to electronic equipment is able to rotate as rotation of the cover. Second cam positioned inside second fixing hole adjacent to first cam. When rotating in first direction, the cover through first cam rotates second cam. Part of third cam is in first fixing hole, and part of the third cam is in second fixing hole adjacent to second cam positioned on sub base. When cover rotates in second direction, the third cam blocks off rotation of second cam following rotation of the cover.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a hinge assembly and an electronic device with the hinge assembly, in particular to a hinge assembly which can make the use of the electronic device more convenient. Background technique [0002] Existing foldable handheld electronic devices often use hinges with automatic opening and closing torque devices. For example, in a foldable mobile phone with an opening angle of up to 180 degrees and an automatic opening angle of 30 degrees, the closed state When opening, you only need to open the cover (flipper) to an angle of 30 degrees by hand, and the mobile phone will automatically open through the torque of the hinge; on the contrary, when closing from the open state, push the cover to 30 degrees by hand position, the phone will automatically close through the torsion of the hinge. [0003] To achieve the above actions, a set of cam devices can be used to determine the torque performance of this type of hinge at different angle...
