The adjusting member is positioned and rotatable on the fixed bracket, and drives the movable base to slide on the fixed bracket in a guided manner by the guiding member when rotating, so as to finally realize the position adjustment between the hinge and the base assembly.

[0021] Wherein, a plurality of fastening parts are further arranged on the fixed bracket. After the intermediate element or the connecting arm is positioned and assembled, the fastening parts are blocked. The adjusting member is located behind the intermediate element or the connecting arm.

[0022] Through the improvement of the above structure, the present invention has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0023] 1. When the movable base and the intermediate element or the connecting arm are assembled, first, pre-positioning is realized through the cooperation of the pre-positioning step and the pre-positioning mating step. Therefore, the movable base and the intermediate element or the connecting arm can be assembled at a specified position, and further ensure that the final positioning part and the final positioning mating part can complete the mutual positioning function, that is, after pre-positioning, the movable base and the intermediate element or the connecting arm can realize at least front-back positioning through the cooperation of the final positioning part and the final positioning mating part, so as to avoid the problem that the positioning position of the final positioning part and the final positioning mating part is deviated due to the abnormal buckling, difficult buckling or unreasonable buckling position of the front locking part and the rear buckling part, affecting the positioning function of the two, so as to improve the assembly accuracy between the movable base and the intermediate element or the connecting arm.

[0024] 2. The locking member always generates a locking force towards the rear end of the intermediate element through the action of the front elastic member, and elastically locks or disengages with the front locking position at the front end of the movable base. The buckling member always generates a buckling force towards the front end of the intermediate element through the action of the rear elastic member, and elastically buckles or disengages with the rear buckling position at the rear end of the movable base, so as to realize the simple disassembly and assembly connection between the connecting arm, the intermediate element and the base assembly. Since the buckling member and the locking member generate forces in opposite directions respectively, the base assembly can be effectively clamped and fixed in the front-back direction during assembly, so as to improve the assembly stability between the connecting arm, the intermediate element and the base assembly, and finally make the assembly between the hinge and the base assembly more firm. At the same time, since the buckling member and the locking member can elastically move at the front and rear ends of the intermediate element, the problem of jamming between the hinge and the base assembly after assembly can be effectively avoided, so as to improve the assembly rationality between the hinge and the base assembly, and at the same time facilitate the user to disassemble the hinge and the base assembly, which greatly facilitates the user's use.

[0025] 3. Since the fastening member and the locking member can elastically move at the front and rear ends of the intermediate element, the hinge can be assembled on the base assembly by pressing. The application of the pressing force is fast, convenient, easy, and with a small force, thus reducing the force required by the user for assembling the hinge and the base assembly and facilitating the user's use.

[0026] 4. During the use process, the user can, according to actual needs, complete the assembly between the hinge and the base assembly by using the step-by-step pressing or direct pressing method; that is, the user can first assemble the open fastening position and the rear fastening position, and then press and assemble the locking member and the front locking position, or first assemble the locking member and the front locking position, and then press and assemble the open fastening position and the rear fastening position, or simultaneously press and assemble the open fastening position and the rear fastening position, and the locking member and the front locking position. The choice of multiple pressing assembly sequences can further improve the user's convenience in use.

[0027] 5. After the movable base and the intermediate element are assembled, they can achieve all-round positioning assembly in the left-right, front-back, and up-down directions through the cooperation of the front locking part, the rear fastening part, the upper and lower limiting parts, and the U-shaped inner wall, effectively improving the assembly stability and firmness of the two, thus avoiding the loosening problem that may occur due to external forces during the assembly, transportation, and use processes, and further improving the use safety of the hinge after assembly.

[0028] 6. Adopting a base assembly structure in the shape of a straight line enables the hinge to cover at least part of the base assembly after assembly, only exposing the adjusting member for adjusting the relative position of the hinge. This not only improves the connection compactness between components but also avoids the problems that the base assembly is exposed due to assembly, and the user is easily touched during use, resulting in user injury or the hinge falling off, affecting the assembly stability of the hinge, making the assembly of the hinge more firm and the user's use safer and more reliable, so as to improve the user's experience.

[0029] Generally speaking, it has the characteristics of simple and reasonable structure, reliable performance, low manufacturing cost, long service life, high safety, fast, simple, and convenient disassembly and assembly process, firm assembly, accurate positioning, and compact connection between components, and has strong practicability.
