ABSTRACT:
A leverage-type hinge is mounted in a portable electronic device with a base, a cover and a driven panel. The cover and the driven panel are connected pivotally to the base. The leverage-type hinge has an actuating sleeve and a leverage bracket. The actuating sleeve is rotated with the cover and has an actuating protrusion. The leverage bracket is mounted pivotally on the base and has a free end abutting the driven panel. When the cover is opened relative to the base, the actuating protrusion presses a receiving end of the leverage bracket to pivot the leverage bracket. Then the free end of the leverage bracket pushes the driven panel to tilt. Therefore, the driven panel is tilted while the cover is opened to facilitate utilization of elements on the driven panel.
