Abstract
A biaxial hinge device includes: a first rotation axis mechanism configured to form a first rotation axis by using a substantially cylindrically shaped first shaft member; a first arm portion configured to include a fixing portion fixed to a first case, and provided to the first shaft member of the first rotation axis mechanism; a second rotation axis mechanism configured to include a fixing portion fixed to a second case, and to form a second rotation axis substantially perpendicular to the first rotation axis by using a substantially cylindrically shaped second shaft member; and a second arm portion configured to connect the first rotation axis mechanism to the second rotation axis mechanism such that the first rotation axis mechanism is rotatable around the second rotation axis of the second rotation axis mechanism.
