Abstract
A hinge housing of an electronic device is coupled to a first hinge arm extending into to a first device housing a second hinge arm extending into a second device housing. The first hinge arm has a first pin extending from a terminal edge of the first hinge arm that engages a first slot defined by a first plate fixedly coupled to the first device housing. The second hinge arm has a second pin extending from a terminal edge of the second hinge arm that engages a second slot defined by a second plate fixedly coupled to the second device housing. The pins translate when the first device housing and the second device housing pivot to change a displacement between the hinge housing and the device housings, as well as to separate proximal ends of the first device housing and the second device housing in the closed position.
