FOLDABLE HINGE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18626021 titled 'FOLDABLE HINGE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE

The abstract describes a foldable hinge with two folding assemblies connected to a base, capable of opening and closing relative to each other. Each folding assembly includes a first swing arm, a second swing arm, a synchronous gear, and a support component.

The first swing arm and second swing arm are pivotally connected to the base.
The synchronous gear is located in the base and facilitates transmission between the swing arms.
The support component is pivotally connected to the first swing arm and linked to the second swing arm, allowing for rotation relative to the first swing arm under the action of the second swing arm.

Potential Applications: - Foldable furniture design - Portable devices with folding mechanisms - Automotive components for space-saving solutions

Problems Solved: - Efficient space utilization in compact designs - Ease of transportation and storage for foldable items

Benefits: - Versatile folding capabilities - Enhanced portability and convenience - Space-saving solutions for various applications

Commercial Applications: Title: "Innovative Foldable Hinge Technology for Space-Saving Solutions" This technology can be applied in furniture, electronics, and automotive industries to create compact and portable products with efficient folding mechanisms.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the synchronous gear facilitate the transmission between the swing arms? 2. What materials are typically used in manufacturing foldable hinges for durability and flexibility?

Original Abstract Submitted

A foldable hinge includes a base and two folding assemblies. The two folding assemblies are located on two sides of the base, are both connected to the base, and are capable of being opened or closed relative to each other. Each of the two folding assemblies includes a first swing arm, a second swing arm, a synchronous gear, and a support component. The first swing arm is pivotally connected to the base. The second swing arm is pivotally connected to the base. The synchronous gear is located in the base, and the first swing arm and the second swing arm are connected through transmission by using the synchronous gear. The support component is pivotally connected to the first swing arm, is linked to the second swing arm, and is capable of rotating relative to the first swing arm under an action of the second swing arm.
