Abstract
A hinge device for supporting a display device is provided. The hinge device comprises a supporting seat, a shaft, a bearing plate, and an elastic module. The shaft rotatably passes through the supporting seat. The bearing plate is disposed on the shaft, and the display device is disposed on the bearing plate. The elastic module includes a cam and at least one elastic plate. The cam is configured on the shaft, and the cam and the shaft rotate synchronously. A fixed end of the elastic plate is fixed to the supporting seat. The elastic plate has a deformation amount to provide a balance torque to the cam when a free end of the elastic plate abuts against the cam. When an external force is applied on the display device, the bearing plate is actuated to drive the shaft and the cam to rotate to change the deformation amount and the balance torque of the elastic plate. When the external force is removed, the display device can be stopped at once.
