A FASTENERLESS HINGE WHICH ENABLES THIN FORM FACTOR LOW COST DESIGN

摘要

The present disclosure includes a fastenerless hinge system which enables a thin form factor low cost design. A hinge system described herein may include a hinge bracket and a hinge wing. The hinge bracket includes an elevated portion thereby providing a hollow region and one or more spring tabs. The hinge wing is slidably coupled to the hinge bracket through the hollow portion. Advantageously, a hinge system consistent with the present disclosure does not include fasteners such that the "Z" height of the computing device may be minimized in addition to reducing costs.
