See full text

A sliding hinge for a portable device has a main bracket, a mounting panel and a plate spring assembly. The mounting panel is slid relative to the main bracket. A tether of the plate spring assembly is attached securely to the mounting panel. The mounting panel is attached securely to a cover of the portable device. A hub of the plate spring assembly is attached securely to a base of the portable device. When the cover is slid to open, the plate spring assembly forces the cover to be fully opened. Therefore, the cover slides to be fully opened without external forces.
