Abstract
A hinge module for a foldable type device has one end-surface connected to a flexible display and has another end-surface respectively connected to a first housing and a second housing. The hinge module comprises a base and a first sliding mechanism. The first sliding mechanism comprises a first supporting plate, a first sliding cover, a first linkage rod, a linkage plate and at least one first restoring member. The first supporting plate and the linkage plate are respectively pivotally connected to the first-lateral-pivoting-portion and the first-central-pivoting-portion. A second limiting portion of a first sliding cover is used to limit the first limiting portion of the first supporting plate in a way of relatively sliding. Thus, when the first limiting portion slides relative to the second limiting portion, the first supporting plate is moved to accommodate the curved-central-part of the flexible display.
