A conventional product having a structure in which a leaf spring 55 is wound around an opening / closing shaft or a frictional torque is generated by pressing a corrugated leaf spring 56 is used.
5 is apt to be loosened due to deformation (sagging) and abrasion damage of the press-contact parts of the corrugated spring 56, so that there remains a problem in durability, so that the friction torque is greatly reduced during use, and the monitor and the like of the device are opened and closed in a predetermined manner. Phenomena such as not stopping at the position and wobbling appear remarkably with time. In addition, there is a disadvantage that the operability and feeling are naturally deteriorated as compared with the initial one due to the reduction of the generated torque. In addition, the components (a) and (b) generally use high-grade materials to prevent sagging and abrasion, and are costly because heat treatment materials are used. Further, if the dimensional accuracy of the components is poor, the characteristics may vary. This is disadvantageous in that the torque value is unstable and adjustment is required, and a failure is likely to occur. Recent hinge parts emphasize operability and feeling during opening / closing / rotation compared to conventional characteristics, high-precision torque value management and durability, especially for hundreds of thousands of times, Cost reduction has been strongly demanded.
