HINGE FOR ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS ATTACHED THEREWITH

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a hinge for an electronic apparatus capable of opening automatically by pushing a push button up to an angle at which the apparatus can be used or operated and of closing manually from this automatically opened angle and then capable of opening to and closing from a full-opened position by a single hand in a freely stoppable manner, and to provide the electronic apparatus. SOLUTION: In an assembly comprising first and second members 1, 2 that are linked with each other in an openable and closable manner, a linking means for linking the first and second members 1, 2 in an openable and closable manner comprises a push-open type hinge A fitted with the push button 15 for opening the first and second members 1, 2 automatically until a predetermined angle and a friction type hinge B fitted coaxially with the push-open type hinge A and generating strong friction torque from an automatically opened predetermined angle. A locking means is provided in either of the hinges. COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
