Abstract
A hinge structure includes a fixing component and a pivoting base. The fixing component includes a fixing base and at least three torsion hooks. The fixing base includes a first sidewall and a second sidewall opposite to each other. The at least three torsion hooks are disposed side by side between the first sidewall and the second sidewall. Each of the torsion hooks includes a fixing end portion and a pressing end portion opposite to each other. The fixing end portion of the torsion hook at center is fixed to the first sidewall, and the pressing end portion is close to the second sidewall. The two fixing end portions of the two torsion hooks at two sides are respectively fixed to the second sidewall, and the two pressing end portions are respectively close to the first sidewall. A pivoting base is rotatably disposed at the torsion hook, and the three pressing end portions respectively press the pivoting base. An electronic device having a hinge structure is further provided.
