Hinge assembly with a rotation seat available to rotate in both latitudinal and longitudinal directions with respect to a fixing seat
First Claim
1. A hinge assembly comprising:
- a fixing seat having;
fixing plate with a fixing hole defined in two distal ends of the fixing plate for connection to a mainframe of an electronic device;
a rotation shaft securely connected to the fixing plate and having a limiting flange formed on a mediate portion of the rotation shaft and provided with two notches defined in an outer periphery of the limiting flange; and
a limiting disk composed of a first arcuate portion and a second arcuate portion with an inner diameter the same as that of the first arcuate portion and an outer diameter larger than that of the first arcuate portion, the limiting disk having two limiting legs integrally extending downward to be received in the two notches of the limiting flange to position the limiting disk on the rotation shaft two limiting edges formed on a respective joint between the first and second arcuate portions; and
a rotation seat having;
a body rotatably mounted on the rotation shaft and having two tubes formed respectively on two opposite ends of the body, two connection legs each rotatably received in a corresponding one of the two tubes for connection to a monitor of the electronic device and an extension extending downward from a bottom face of the body to selectively engage with either one of the limiting edges of the limiting disk to limit a rotation angle of the body to the fixing plate; and
leaf springs mounted on the rotation shaft and an uppermost leaf being riveted to a distal end of the rotation shaft to securely sandwich the body with the limiting disk.

Abstract
A hinge assembly includes a fixing seat and a rotation seat rotatable in relation to the fixing seat. The fixing seat has a fixing plate for connection to a mainframe of an electronic device, a rotation shaft securely connected to the fixing plate and having a limiting flange formed on a mediate portion of the rotation shaft, and a limiting disk securely mounted on the rotation shaft and having two limiting edges. The rotation seat has a body rotatably mounted on the rotation shaft and having two connection legs each rotatably received in two tubes and an extension to selectively engage with either one of the limiting edges to limit a rotation angle of the body to the fixing plate and leaf springs mounted on the rotation shaft.
