Abstract
A sliding hinge is mounted between a cover and a base of an electronic device and has a stationary leaf, a moving leaf, a resilient device, a main linkage and a secondary linkage. The stationary leaf is connected to the base. The moving leaf is connected to the cover and is mounted slidably on the stationary leaf. The resilient device is mounted pivotally on the stationary leaf. The main linkage is mounted pivotally on the stationary leaf and is connected pivotally to the moving leaf and the resilient device. The secondary linkage is mounted pivotally on the stationary leaf and is connected pivotally to the moving leaf. The cover is moved to slide relative to the base by the moving leaf and the main and secondary linkages. Furthermore, the resilient device keeps the cover closed or fully opened without external forces.
