Abstract

The utility model provides a hinge assembly. According to an optimization concrete example of the utility model the hinge assembly comprises a support element, a sleeve element, a base and a first friction element. The support element can be fixed on a first object. The sleeve element is extended from the lower rim of the support element. The structure of the base is copulately inserted into the sleeve element and the two ends of the base are exposed at the outside of the sleeve element, the base can be fixed on a second object by its two ends. When a outer force is applied on the first object, the outer force compels the support element to rotate around a rotary axle of the base, leading that the first object rotates relatively to the second object, besides a first break-away friction force occurs between a first friction face of the first friction element and a first projection of the base, for resisting the rotation of the support element.

Description

Hinge assemblies

Technical field

The utility model relates to a kind of hinge assemblies, so that an object and a fixed base articulate, and utilizes one to two line frictional force to make object be rotated the location with respect to fixed base.

Background technique

An existing object and the fixed base of making articulates, and this object is rotated the hinge assemblies of location with respect to this fixed base, and it mostly is the complicated design of member greatly.By known hinge assemblies, object is being rotated when location with respect to fixed base, known hinge assemblies only between object and fixed base two pivoting point places a frictional force is provided, be not to be tough structural design.

In addition, known hinge assemblies is all very complicated in its assembling, has improved whole manufacture cost virtually.

Novel content

Therefore, this novel purpose is to provide a kind of hinge assemblies, so that one first object and one second object articulate, for example, the pivot joint between display device and the fixed base.And especially,, utilize single frictional force that first object is rotated the location with respect to second object according to this novel hinge assemblies.

According to the hinge assemblies of this novel preferred specific embodiment, it comprises a supporting member, a shroud member, a substrate and one first friction member.Supporting member can be fixed on one first object, and supporting member also limits one first side and one second side.One lower edge of shroud member self-supporting construction element extends, and shroud member has one first perforate at the first side place.The structure of substrate cooperates the insertion shroud member, cause the two ends of substrate to expose to outside the shroud member, substrate can be fixed on one second object with the two ends of itself, substrate has one first protuberance, after shroud member is inserted in substrate, first protuberance of substrate is placed in first tapping, and first side-prominent towards supporting member.Limit a running shaft in the substrate.First friction member is fixed on the supporting member, and extends to the first side place of supporting member, and the moulding of first friction member causes it to have first rubbing surface that is tight against first protuberance.When an external force acts on first object, external force also forces supporting member to rotate around running shaft, cause first object to rotate, and one first force of sliding friction occur between first rubbing surface and first protuberance, with the rotation of impedance supporting member with respect to second object.

Embodiment

This is novel to provide a kind of hinge assemblies, so that one first object and one second object articulate, for example, the pivot joint between display device and the fixed base.And especially, utilize one to two line frictional force, make first object be rotated the location with respect to second object according to this novel hinge assemblies.Below will clearly point out design and feature that this is novel by this novel preferred specific embodiment is described in detail in detail.

See figures.1.and.2, depicted in greater detail is according to the hinge assemblies 1 of this novel preferred specific embodiment among the figure.Fig. 1 is the external view of the main member of hinge assemblies 1.Fig. 2 is a side view of the part main member of hinge assemblies 1.As shown in Figure 1, hinge assemblies 1 comprises a supporting member 10, a shroud member 12, a substrate 14 and one first friction member 16a.

As shown in Figure 1, supporting member 10 can be fixed on the one first object (not shown).First object is the object that need be fixed on the fixed base, for example, and the display device of desk top computer.Supporting member 10 also limits one first side S1 and one second side S2.

Be shown in Fig. 1 equally, a lower edge of shroud member 12 self-supporting construction elements 10 extends, and shroud member 12 has one first perforate 122 at the first side place.

Be shown in Fig. 1 equally, the structure of substrate 14 cooperates insertion shroud member 12, causes the two ends of substrate 14 to expose to outside the shroud member 12.Substrate 14 can be fixed on the two ends of itself on one second object (for example a fixed base is not represented among the figure), and substrate 14 has one first protuberance 142.After shroud member 12 was inserted in substrate 14, first protuberance 142 of substrate 14 was placed in first perforate, 122 places, and outstanding towards the first side S1 of supporting member 10.Limit a running shaft Y in the substrate 14.

Be shown in Fig. 1 equally, the first friction member 16a is fixed on the supporting member 10, and extends to first S1 of side place of supporting member 10.The moulding of the first friction member 16a causes it to have first rubbing surface that is tight against first protuberance 142.

When an external force acts on first object, external force and force supporting member 10 to rotate around running shaft Y, cause first object to rotate with respect to second object, and one first force of sliding friction occurs between first rubbing surface and first protuberance 142, with the rotation of impedance supporting member 10.Thus, make application of force person be easy to first object is rotated to respect to second object position of institute desire location.

As shown in Figure 2, in one embodiment, substrate 14 also has one second protuberance 144.And shroud member 12 has one second perforate (not expression among Fig. 1) at second S2 of side place.After shroud member 12 was inserted in substrate 14, second protuberance 144 of substrate 14 was placed in second tapping, and outstanding towards the second side S2 of supporting member 10.Hinge assemblies 1 further comprises one second friction member 16b, and the second friction member 16b is fixed on the supporting member 10, and extends to second S2 of side place of supporting member 12.The moulding of the second friction member 16b causes it to have second rubbing surface that is tight against second protuberance 144.When external force acts on first object, external force and force supporting member 10 to rotate around running shaft Y, cause first object to rotate, and one second force of sliding friction occur between second rubbing surface and second protuberance 144, with the rotation of impedance supporting member 10 with respect to second object.Thus, make application of force person be easy to first object is rotated to respect to second object position of institute desire location.

In Fig. 2, only express the side view of supporting member 10, shroud member 12, the first friction member 16a and the second friction member 16b.As shown in Figure 2, supporting member 10, shroud member 12, the first friction member 16a and the second friction member 16b can be by a sheet metal being carried out machine-building processes such as punching press, brake forming and are one-body molded.Supporting member 10, shroud member 12, the first friction member 16a and the second friction member 16b also can distinguish moulding by sheet metal, and then carry out integrally welded.Substrate 14 and on first protuberance 142 and second protuberance 144 can be by a sheet metal being carried out punching press, bending and moulding.
