Abstract: A hinge structure including an axis body, a torque member, and a pressing assembly is provided. The axis body includes a contact surface. The torque member leans against the contact surface of the axis body. The torque member and the axis body are rotatable relatively around a central axis of the axis body. The contact surface pushes the torque member to move around the central axis of the axis body when the torque member and the axis body rotate relatively. The pressing assembly provides a pushing force to the torque member to push the torque member to push towards the contact surface. A plurality of electronic devices having the hinge structure are further provided.

Abstract: A hinge including a first bracket, a second bracket, a shaft, a fixing element and a position limiting ring is provided. The first bracket includes a first hole and a protrusion protruding from edge of the first hole toward inside of the first hole. The second bracket includes a second hole. The shaft has a cylinder portion passing through the first hole, a fixing portion passing through the second hole, and a first position limiting structure encircling the shaft. The fixing element is disposed at ends of the cylinder portion to fix the shaft to the first bracket. The position limiting ring encircles the shaft and located between the first bracket and the first position limiting structure. The position limiting ring has a second position limiting structure and a recess, the second position limiting structure engages with the first position limiting structure, and the protrusion is located in the recess.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a display module, a movable member, a base, and a biasing element. The display module has a housing and a guiding member fixed thereto. The guiding member has an angled surface, and the housing has an opening. The movable member is disposed in the display module and has a through hole. The biasing element is disposed in the through hole and adjacent to the angled surface. The base has a main body and a connecting member, wherein the connecting member is connected to the main body and detachably connected to the display module. When the connecting member is inserted into the display module through the opening along a first direction, the connecting member pushes the movable member to move along a second direction with respect to the housing, and the movable member forces the biasing element to contact the connecting member.

Abstract: A hinge structure including an axis body, a torque member, and a pressing assembly is provided. The axis body includes a contact surface. The torque member leans against the contact surface of the axis body. The torque member and the axis body are rotatable relatively around a central axis of the axis body. The contact surface pushes the torque member to move around the central axis of the axis body when the torque member and the axis body rotate relatively. The pressing assembly provides a pushing force to the torque member to push the torque member to push towards the contact surface. A plurality of electronic devices having the hinge structure are further provided.
