ABSTRACT:
A hinge device for a casing of the type having a body portion and an upper cover includes a substantially L-shaped mount plate adapted to be securely mounted to the body portion of the casing, a sleeve attached to a first side of the mount plate, a pivotal axle having a conic portion thereof received in the sleeve and a flange portion against the sleeve, a spring, and a nut mounted on the pivotal shaft and located on a second side of the mount plate. The nut biases the spring allowing the pivotal axle to be freely pivotable relative to the spring. When a desired position of the upper cover relative to the body portion of the casing is reached, the spring biased by the nut exerts a longitudinal force on the pivotal axle to retain the pivotal axle in position.
