Abstract

In one embodiment, a device () having a first portion () and a second portion (), the first or second portion being pivotably adjustable in two directions to reveal the other of the first or second portion, has a biaxially pivotable hinge () and a disengagable uniaxially pivotable hinge (). The biaxially pivotable hinge () interconnects the first and second portions (). The uniaxially pivotable hinge () is capable of selectively (a) interconnecting the first and second portions () and (b) releasing connection between the first and second portions (), the selectivity being dependent upon relative rotational position of the first portion () and the second portion () about the uniaxially pivotable hinge ().
