Abstract
An information handling system hinge has a modular and selectively separable core that couples to hinge mounts in an interchangeable manner so that core selection defines hinge characteristics, such as torque, detent orientation and stop orientation. A standardized mount accepts cores with different rotational characteristics for streamlined manufacture of information handling systems and improved reuse and recycling of hinge components. A stop included with the hinge limits hinge rotation to a defined orientation, such as 135 degrees, and is released by engagement with a tool form exterior the housing to allow rotation past the defined orientation and thereby release a display from the housing.
