Abstract
A one-way braking hinge capable of self-aligning a shaft and a one-way clutch is provided. The one-way braking hinge (10) includes a first leaf (1), a shaft (3) rotatably supported by the first leaf (1), at least one resistance part (4) that resists rotation of the shaft (3), a second leaf (2) rotatably coupled to the shaft (3), a one-way clutch (12) into which the shaft (3) is inserted, and a position adjusting member (11) to which the one-way clutch (12) is fixed. The position adjusting member (11) is position-adjustably coupled to the second leaf (2).
