ABSTRACT:
A hinge includes a housing. A sliding cam slideably received in the housing defines concave portions and an axial hole. A rotatable cam mating with the sliding cam has a base portion extending downward to form pushing portions disposed in the concave portions. The base portion defines an accommodating hole. A spring is slideably received in the housing. One end of the spring is fixed on the sliding cam and the other end of the spring is fixed at an end of the housing. A shaft received in the housing runs through the axial hole and the spring. An end of the shaft is received in the accommodating hole, and the other end of the shaft passes through the end of the housing. A first stop has a bottom surface whose part extends downward to form a blocking portion, and the rest part of the bottom surface is defined as a revolving platform. A second stop engaging with the rotatable cam has a top surface protruding upward to form a pushing block rotatablely disposed on the revolving platform. And a cap rotatablely receives the first stop and the second stop.
