Hinge assembly with multiple resilient spacers

Abstract

A hinge with multiple resilient spacers has a body, a rotating element, multiple bolt assemblies and multiple resilient spacers. Both of the body and the rotating element have corresponding through holes. The bolt assemblies are mounted through the through holes of the body and the rotating element. The resilient spacers are mounted on the bolt between the body and the rotating element. Each resilient spacer has at least one surface selectively abutting the body and the rotating element. Each surface of the resilient spacer has multiple concentric grooves formed in the surface. With such an arrangement, the surfaces of the resilient spacers partially abut the body or the rotating element. Therefore the rubbing area of the resilient spacers are reduced. Such that greasing may be unnecessary and abrasion or noise may effectively prevented.
