Abstract
A securing device includes a body adapted to securely connect to the primary plate and two arms vertically extending out from two opposite ends of the body. Each of the arms has an assembly hole to adapt to align with opposite ends of a tubular connector of the primary plate so that when the shaft extends into the tubular tube, the two arms are secured to the shaft. When a radial force is acting on the shaft, the force is compromised by the two arms of the securing device such that damping of the screen is minimized.
Claims2
A securing device for a laptop computer hinge having a primary plate adapted to securely connect to a mainframe of a laptop computer and a secondary plate pivotally connected to the primary plate via a shaft to be adapted to connect to a screen of the laptop computer, the securing device comprising:
- a body adapted to securely connect to the primary plate;
- and
- two arms extending respectively from opposite ends of the body and each having an assembly hole, said assembly holes being adapted for respective alignment with opposite ends of a tubular connector formed on one side of the primary plate so that when the shaft extends into the tubular connector, the two arms are secured to the shaft,
- whereby a force acting on the shaft is compromised by the two arms of the securing device such that damping of the screen is minimized.
