    Abstract: A torque hinge module including a rotating element and a torque assembly is provided. The torque assembly rotatably sleeves the rotating element to generate torque. One of the rotating element and the torque assembly has a first bearing surface, and the other one has a second bearing surface and a third bearing surface corresponding to the first bearing surface. There is a first included angle between a plane where the second bearing surface is located and a plane where the third bearing surface have is located. A shape of the first bearing surface corresponds to a shape of the second bearing surface and a shape of the third bearing surface. When the rotating element rotates relative to the torque assembly to make the first bearing surface bear against the second bearing surface or the third bearing surface, the torque is reduced.

    Abstract: An electronic device including a first body, a second body, a hinge structure, an electronic assembly and a linkage mechanism is provided. The first body and the second body are pivoted to each other through the hinge structure. The electronic assembly is disposed on the first body. The linkage mechanism is disposed in the first body and connected between the hinge structure and the electronic assembly. When the second body is closed to the first body, the electronic assembly is hidden between the first body and the second body. When the second body is opened relative to the first body with an opening angle less than a predetermined angle, the hinge structure does not drive the linkage mechanism. When the second body is opened relative to the first body with the opening angle not less than the predetermined angle, the hinge structure drives the linkage mechanism and the linkage mechanism drives the electronic assembly to be opened relative to the first body.
