- the rotation-side convex portion 74 is engaged with the second sector-shaped convex portion 44 and the outer peripheral convex portion 46A in the 90 ° rotation state, and the rotation-side convex portion. 77 engages with the first fan-shaped convex portion 43 and the inner peripheral convex portion 45B.
- FIG. 8 shows a state where the rotating cam 6 is further rotated 90 ° in the direction of arrow A from the 90 ° rotation state (hereinafter referred to as a 180 ° rotation state).
- This 180 ° rotation state corresponds to a state in which the lid portion 82 is opened horizontally with respect to the main body portion 81 in FIG. 9 (the lid portion in this state is indicated by reference numeral 82c).
- the inner peripheral convex portion 45A is engaged with the inner peripheral convex portion 79 of the rotation side convex portion 77
- the inner peripheral convex portion 45B is engaged with the inner peripheral convex portion 76 of the rotation side convex portion 74.
- the outer peripheral convex portion 46 ⁇ / b> A is engaged with the outer peripheral convex portion 78 of the rotation side convex portion 77
- the outer peripheral convex portion 46 ⁇ / b> B is engaged with the outer peripheral convex portion 75 of the rotation side convex portion 74.
- the rotation-side convex portion 74 in the 180 ° rotation state, is engaged with the two locations of the inner peripheral convex portion 45B and the outer peripheral convex portion 46B, and the rotation-side convex portion 77 is the inner peripheral convex portion. Engage with two places of 45A and outer peripheral convex part 46A.
- the rotation-side convex portions 74 and 77 formed on the rotating cam 6 are the first fan-shaped convex portions formed on the fixed cam 4 at positions other than the meshing position. 43, the second sector-shaped convex portion 44, the inner peripheral convex portions 45A and 45B, and the outer peripheral convex portions 46A and 46B. Therefore, even if the position of the fixed cam 4 and the rotating cam 6 is a position other than the meshing position, there is no rattling between the fixed cam 4 and the rotating cam 6, and a stable rotating operation is realized. can do.
- the rotation-side convex portions 74 and 77 formed on the rotating cam 6 as described above correspond to the convex portions 43, 44, 45A, 45B, and 46A formed on the fixed cam 4, respectively. , 46B are engaged at two or more locations. At this time, the convex portions 43, 44, 45A, 45B, 46A, 46B and the rotation-side convex portions 74, 77 are pressed against each other by the elastic force of the spring 8. Therefore, when the hinge mechanism 1 is mounted on the electronic device 80 due to the frictional force generated between them, the lid portion 82 can be freely stopped with respect to the main body portion 81 (locked at an arbitrary rotation angle). It becomes possible.
- the rotation-side convex portions 74 and 77 formed on the rotary cam 6 at positions other than the meshing position as described above are the convex portions 43, 44, 45 ⁇ / b> A and 45 ⁇ / b> B formed on the fixed cam 4. , 46A, 46B and two or more locations.
- this engagement location is not limited to two locations, but can be configured to engage at three or more locations. With this configuration, the rotational operation can be further stabilized.
