Abstract: In one example, a friction hinge includes a link connected to a slide slot of a first base with a movable shaft and connected to a base friction mechanism of a second base with a link friction mechanism, where the link includes a joint positioned between the movable shaft and the link friction mechanism. In another example, a friction hinge system includes a first link connected to a first slide slot of a first base with a first movable shaft and connected to a first base friction mechanism of a second base with a first link friction mechanism, a second link connected to a second slide slot of the second base with a second movable shaft and connected to a second base friction mechanism of the first base with a second link friction mechanism, and a joint shaft to connect the first link to the second link at a joint.

Abstract: Examples disclosed herein provide a hinge assembly for a computing device. One example hinge assembly includes a first bracket attached to a first member of the computing device and a second bracket attached to a second member of the computing device. The hinge assembly includes a hinge pivotally connecting the first bracket to the second bracket along a first axis, and a first gear rotatably connected to the first bracket along the first axis. The hinge assembly further includes a set of gears, each gear from the set of gears rotatably connected to different axes parallel to the first axis. As an example, the set of gears is to provide friction against the first gear to provide a level of resistance to a torque provided when the first bracket is to be moved along the first axis.
