Equilibrated Hinge With Variable Frictional Torque

US Patent:
5771540, Jun 30, 1998
Filed:
Jan 22, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/785927
Inventors:
David A. Carpenter - Clarksville MD
Mikhail Gelfand - Milford CT
Edward T. Rude - Columbia MD
Assignee:
TorqMaster, Inc. - Stamford CT
International Classification:
E05F 108
US Classification:
16308
Abstract:
A hinge that provides equilibration and variable friction for a display screen or a laptop lid. In the preferred embodiment, a torsion rod provides a restoring force which increases as the lid is moved either direction from its vertical position. A friction hinge, of well know design, uses a spring band about a shaft. One end of the torsion rod is coupled to the end of the band of the friction hinge, so that the moment in the torsion rod increases or decreases the moment in the spring band of the hinge, modifying the frictional torque accordingly. This allows the frictional torque to be low as the lid is first opened, and larger as the display reaches the useful range of its motion.

Friction Hinge With Detent Capability

US Patent:
5918348, Jul 6, 1999
Filed:
Jan 6, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/003377
Inventors:
David A. Carpenter - Clarksville MD
Mikhail Gelfand - Milford CT
Edward T. Rude - Columbia MD
Assignee:
TorqMaster, Inc. - Stamford CT
International Classification:
E05D 1108
US Classification:
16342
Abstract:
The present invention provides a small, cylindrical hinge, or pivoting pin, which can be configured to produce various profiles of torque versus angle. The desired profile of torque versus angle is achieved by the shapes of the hinge shaft and the spring plates of the hinge. Detents at one or more angular positions can be achieved, with or without frictional damping torque at other angles. The friction of our hinge is produced symmetrically about the hinge axis, eliminating the problems associated with asymmetric construction.
