Title:
HINGE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/212232
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
This hinge (1) comprises fixed parts (10), cams (20), sliders (30), a compression spring (40), and a case (60). The fixed parts (10), the cams (20), and the sliders (30) are each provided in twos, and are arranged symmetrically about the longitudinal center of the compression spring (40). The compression spring (40) biases the two sliders (30) toward the respective cams (20), and the sliders (30) are stowed so as to be able to rotate relative to the case (60) but able to slide along the longitudinal direction. Cam follower surfaces of the sliders (30) are caused by the biasing force of the compression spring (40) to engage with cam surfaces of the cams (20). Along with the turning of the sliders (30) relative to the cams (20), a turning body (4) fixed to the case (60) turns in relation to a main body (3). The present invention thereby makes it possible to achieve stable folding up of the turning body (4), and to adapt to enlarging the turning body (4).
