Abstract:
1. A hinge device comprising: a first connecting member defining a connecting portion hole therein, a resiliently deformable positioning arm with an angled surface located on the first connecting member; a second connecting member defining a connecting body hole therein, a connecting body post located on the second connecting member; at least one spacer defining a through hole; and a locking member engaging in the connecting portion hole, the through hole and the connecting body hole so that the first connecting member is rotatable relative to the second connecting member; wherein the connecting body post abuts on the angled surface of the positioning arm, the first connecting member is rotatable relative to the second connecting member between a first position where a first friction is generated between the connecting body post and the angled surface, and a second position where a second friction is generated between the connecting body post and the angled surface and greater than the first friction; and said at least one spacer is sandwiched between the first connecting member and the second connecting member.
