Abstract: A hinge is connectable with two housing shells for permitting relative folding and unfolding of the housing shells, and includes a fixed seat, at least two rotating units, two lateral support plates and at least one synchronous driving unit. The rotating units are shiftable between an open state and a closed state. Each rotating unit includes a linking member fittingly and arcuately slidable on the fixed seat, a sliding member fittingly and arcuately slidable on the linking member, and a rotary bracket pivotably mounted on the fixed seat and inclinedly slidable on the sliding member. The lateral support plates are respectively mounted on the linking members. The synchronous driving unit includes two inboard pinions and two outboard pinions arranged laterally to mesh with bracket toothed portions of the rotary brackets to make synchronous rotation of the rotary brackets in opposite rotational directions.

Abstract: A hinge includes a stationary seat and two rotating units. Each rotating unit includes a linkage module that has an extension body that has a arcuate slide rail, a rotating bracket module that is rotatable and that has a fixing pin, and a sliding module that includes a connecting frame, a positioning pin, and a linkage member. The connecting frame has a curved groove that engages the arcuate slide rail such that movement of the rotating units between an opened and a closed state results in movement between the arcuate slide rail and the curved groove. The linkage member has a through hole, and an elongated slot which the fixing pin passes through to connect the rotating bracket module such that movement of the rotating units between the opened and closed states results in movement between the fixing pin and the elongated slot.

Abstract: A hinge is connectable with two housing parts to allow opening and closing of the housing parts. The hinge includes a mounting seat and two rotary units. The mounting seat has a central recessed portion. The rotary units are connected with the mounting seat and shiftable between an unfolded state and a folded state. Each rotary units includes a linking member, a rail sliding block, a rotating bracket and a cover plate. During the shifting from the unfolded state to the folded state, the rail sliding block is slid relative to both the linking member and the rotating bracket and is turned relative to the mounting seat. In the folded state, the cover plates are inclined to each other in a direction away from the mounting seat to cooperate with the central recessed portion to form a space for receiving a bending portion of a flexible display.

Abstract: A hinge is connectable with two housing shells for permitting relative opening and closing of the housing shells, and includes a fixed seat, at least two rotating units, two lateral support plates and a center support plate. The rotating units are disposed at two sides of a centerline of the fixed seat and are connectable with the housing shells. The rotating units are shiftable between an open state and a closed state. Each rotating unit includes a linking member arcuately slidable on the fixed seat. The lateral support plates are mounted on the linking members, and have central notches. The center support plate is movably disposed on the fixed seat and is moved with the rotating units. In the open state, the center support plate is disposed in the central notches. In the closed state, the center support plate abuts against the fixed seat.

Abstract: A hinge synchronization module includes a base unit, and two hinge units. The two hinge units are connected to the base unit, and each of the hinge units has a gear member, a rotating platform, and a connecting member. The gear members of the hinge units mesh with each other. The rotating platform of each hinge unit has a platform body pivotable relative to the base unit. The connecting member of each hinge unit has a gear part mashing with the gear member of the hinge unit, and a slide hole. A slidable rod of the rotating platform of each hinge unit is disposed in and slidable along the slide hole of the connecting member of the hinge unit.
