The first connecting bracket connected to a first end of the friction member. The second connecting bracket connected to a second end of the friction member opposite to the first end. The second connecting bracket is detachably attached to the first connecting bracket. | 03-04-2010 |
20100071156 | HINGE ASSEMBLY - An exemplary hinge assembly includes a rotatable shaft, a rotatable stand, a fixed stand, an elastic member, and a retaining ring. The rotatable stand is non-rotatably connected to the rotatable shaft. The fixed stand and an elastic member are connected to the rotatable shaft. A flange is formed on a proximal end of the rotatable shaft, and a positioning groove is defined in a distal end of the rotatable shaft. The rotatable stand, the fixed stand and the elastic member are positioned between the flange and the positioning groove of the rotatable shaft. The retaining ring engages in the positioning groove of the rotatable shaft, thereby producing an elastic force along the rotatable shaft. | 03-25-2010 |
20100072333 | SUPPORT STAND AND DISPLAY DEVICE USING THE SAME - A display device includes a display monitor, a supporting portion formed on a bottom surface of the display monitor, and a support stand fixed on the display monitor. The supporting portion and the support stand cooperatively support the display monitor.
