CONNECTING DEVICE AND FOLDING ELECTRONIC APPARATUS USING THE SAME

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a connecting device for connecting two related electronic apparatus freely to be folded and turned, and to provide a folding electronic apparatus with the structure that a first electronic apparatus stably stops at the terminal position of the turning angle without stopping an intermediate position when turning the first electronic apparatus for turnover. SOLUTION: This connecting device is formed of a turning shaft mechanism installed to have a turning axis vertical to the end surface of the first electronic apparatus 29 to support the first electronic apparatus 29 freely to turn at the predetermined angle range and provided with a spring member 26 with the structure that the deflection quantity thereof in the direction at a right angle against the turning axis is large at the intermediate position of the turning angle range and small at both end positions, and an opening and closing shaft mechanism installed between the turning shaft mechanism and the peripheral part of the second electronic apparatus to have a turning axis thereof vertical to the turning axis of the first electronic apparatus.
