20090031532 | HINGE FOR A TABLET COMPUTER EXTENSION PAD - An extension pad has a clamp device to hold a tablet computer on the extension pad securely. The clamp device has a mounting base and a rotating clamp. A hinge for a tablet computer extension pad in accordance with the present invention is mounted in the clamp device and has a pivoting leaf, a limiting segment, a stationary leaf and a spring. The pivoting leaf is mounted in the rotating clamp. The limiting segment is mounted around the pivoting leaf to selectively limit rotation of the rotating clamp. The stationary leaf is mounted rotatably on the pivoting leaf and is mounted securely in the mounting base. The spring is mounted between the pivoting leaf and the stationary leaf. Consequently, the hinge allows the clamp device to hold the tablet computer securely on the extension pad. | 02-05-2009 |
20090126157 | PIVOT AND TILT APPARATUS - A pivot and tilt apparatus for positioning a member comprises a first pivot assembly having a first pivot post at a first end thereof rotatable about a first axis for engaging the member and an annulus at a second end thereof and a second pivot assembly having a second pivot post rotatable about a second axis for engaging the annulus of said first pivot. | 05-21-2009 |
20090144937 | SWING HINGE MODULE AND PORTABLE TERMINAL EMPLOYING THE SAME - A swing hinge module bidirectionally swinging a movable body and a portable terminal having the same are disclosed. The swing hinge module includes a rotation cam, a rotation shaft, a fixed plate, and a guide pin. The rotation cam is fixed to the movable body to be rotated with the movable body, and has stopping recesses on an outer circumference of the rotation cam to set a rotation angle of the movable body. The rotation shaft is coupled with a central area of the rotation cam, and the fixed plate is coupled to the fixed body and has a guide hole to receive the rotation shaft. The guide pin is coupled to the fixed plate and contacts the outer circumference of the rotation cam to support the rotation cam. | 06-11-2009 |
20100064479 | Hinge for Automotive Vehicle Doors - A hinge for vehicle doors includes: a first part fixable to a vehicle door and including an essentially vertical pin; a second part fixable to a frame of the vehicle and including an essentially cylindrical and vertical first cavity that houses the vertical pin; and a retaining device that retains infinite angular positions between the first and second parts. The retaining device includes: a sleeve surrounding the pin in the first cavity and an engagement member arranged between the pin and the sleeve. The engagement member couples the sleeve to the pin in any angular rest position of the hinge and automatically decouples the sleeve from the pin during relative rotation between the first and second parts. An interruption of the relative rotation between the first and second parts causes the engagement member to automatically couple the sleeve to the pin. | 03-18-2010 |
20100095486 | HINGE ASSEMBLY WITH RESTRICTING UNIT - An exemplary hinge assembly includes a mounting bracket, a rotatable bracket, a swivel mechanism, and two pivot mechanisms. The rotatable bracket defines a sliding groove. The swivel mechanism connects the mounting bracket to the rotatable bracket. The rotating subassembly has a rotating shaft, a first restricting member, and a second restricting member. The first restricting member is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft, and the second restricting member is non-rotatably connected to the rotating shaft. The first restricting member has a restricting portion and a first resisting portion. The restricting portion is movably received in the sliding groove. The second restricting member includes a restricting protrusion. The restricting protrusion is capable of driving the first resisting portion together with the first restricting member to rotate in the sliding groove until the restricting portion reaches an end of the sliding groove. | 04-22-2010 |
20100125976 | PIVOT MECHANISM AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE APPLYING THE SAME - A pivot mechanism and an electronic device applying the same are provided. The pivot mechanism includes a pedestal having a bore passing through the pedestal; a shaft inserted into the bore and having at least two leaning surfaces in parallel to an extending direction of the shaft; two bushes coupled to the shaft and fixed in the bore; and a reed set disposed in the bore and arranged between the two bushes. The reed set includes at least one reed, wherein each reed is wedged in the bore and has a hole through which the shaft penetrates. At least one position limiting portion is formed in the periphery of the hole for orienting the shaft. The position limitation portion further extends inwardly to form a slot, by which a cantilever is formed between the slot and the axis hole to lean against the shaft. | 05-27-2010 |
20130212836 | HINGE ASSEMBLY - A hinge assembly is movable between open and closed positions and capable of being locked in an open position. The hinge assembly comprises first and second hinge members including, respectively, first and second body portions. A hinge pin assembly cooperates with the hinge members and has aligned internal bores and a longitudinal axis about which the hinge members rotate. A locking pin is movable within the internal bores between a first position and a second position. When the locking pin is in the first position the hinge members cannot rotate relative to one another, and when the locking pin is in the second position the hinge members can rotate relative to one another. A magnetic latch member is mounted to one of the hinge members to hold the locking pin in one of the first or second positions. The locking components may include a mechanical override device to prevent damage. | 08-22-2013 |
20140115827 | Foldable table - A foldable table includes a first tabletop panel, a second tabletop panel, a first peripheral edge rim, a second peripheral edge rim, and a foldable frame. The foldable frame includes a reinforcing frame which includes first through fourth elongated reinforcing member spacedly mounted along two longitudinal sides of the first receiving cavity and the second receiving cavity respectively, a first and a second leg frame pivotally mounted on the first receiving cavity and the second receiving cavity respectively, and a hinge arrangement. The hinge arrangement includes a first connecting joint, a second connecting joint, and a first and a second locker device coupled to the first connecting joint and the second connecting joint respectively, wherein the first locker device and the second locker device are arranged to operate between a locked position and an unlock position. | 05-01-2014 |
