HINGE
Abstract:
Disclosed is a hinge including: a first hinge member including a first magnetic element; a second hinge member including a second magnetic element pivotally mounted to the first hinge member: a braking mechanism configured to hinder hinged motion of the hinge members; and a biasing mechanism to bias the first hinge member and the second hinge member toward a retained position. The first and second hinge members are substantially maintained in the retained position via magnetic force between the first and second magnetic elements. In certain embodiments, the first hinge member includes an angled overlapping portion and the second hinge member includes a dampening mechanism to slow hinged movement of the first hinge member relative to the second hinge member. The dampening mechanism is orientated substantially orthogonal to the angled overlapping portion which urges against the dampener when approaching the retained position.
