    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: A hinge structure includes: a base having an axial hole whose an inner wall has positioning concave portions; at least one torque element, disposed in the axial hole and includes a torque providing portion and positioning convex portions; and a rotation shaft, passing through the through hole. The torque providing portion surrounds a central axis of the axial hole to form a through hole, the torque providing portion has a fracture adjacent to the through hole, and the positioning convex portions are connected to the torque providing portion and correspond to the positioning concave portions respectively. The torque providing portion and the positioning convex portions are located on a same virtual plane perpendicular to the center axis. A first virtual straight line on the virtual plane passes through the fracture and the center axis, and at least some positioning convex portions are not located on the first virtual straight line.

    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.

    Abstract: A foldable electronic device includes a first body, a second body, a pivot module, a linkage mechanism, and an input module. The pivot module is connected to the first body and the second body. The second body is pivoted on the first body through the pivot module. The linkage mechanism is disposed in the first body and is connected to the pivot module. The input module is movably disposed on the first body through the linkage mechanism. The linkage mechanism is configured to be driven by the pivot module to cause the input module to move to be close to or away from the pivot module and cause the input module to be inclined or parallel to the first body.

    Abstract: A hidden hinge includes a first fixing assembly, a second fixing assembly, a first rotating part and a second rotating part, a first bearing frame, a second bearing frame, and at least one torque member. The first rotating part and the second rotating part are rotatably disposed through the first fixing assembly and the second fixing assembly. The first rotating part and the second rotating part are parallel to each other and respectively have a first teeth portion and a second teeth portion. The first teeth portion and the second teeth portion are arranged in a vertically-staggered manner. The first bearing frame is slidably disposed on the first fixing assembly and has a first rack portion engaged with the first teeth portion. The second bearing frame is slidably disposed on the second fixing assembly and has a second rack portion engaged with the second teeth portion. The at least one torque member is sleeved around the first rotating part and the second rotating part.

    Abstract: A hinge module includes a base, a torsional force providing structure, two axles, two brackets, and at least one fixing component. The base has at least one first concave. The torsional force providing structure is disposed in the base and has two torsional force providing portions. The two axles penetrate the two torsional force providing portions respectively. The two brackets are connected to the two axles respectively. The fixing component is disposed in the first concave and abuts the torsional force providing structure, such that the torsional force providing structure is fixed to the base. In addition, an electronic device including the hinge module is also provided.

    Abstract: An electronic device includes a first body, a second body, a hinge module and a linkage mechanism. The second body includes a main body portion and a back cover movably disposed to the main body portion. The hinge module is pivoted between the first body and the second body. The linkage mechanism is disposed in the second body, and is connected to the hinge module. The back cover is fixed to the linkage mechanism. The linkage mechanism is changed between a first state and a second state. When the linkage mechanism is in the first state, there is a first space between the back cover and the hinge module. When the linkage mechanism is in the second state, there is a second space between the back cover and the hinge module. The second space is larger than the first space.
