Abstract

In one example, a friction hinge includes a link connected to a slide slot of a first base with a movable shaft and connected to a base friction mechanism of a second base with a link friction mechanism, where the link includes a joint positioned between the movable shaft and the link friction mechanism. In another example, a friction hinge system includes a first link connected to a first slide slot of a first base with a first movable shaft and connected to a first base friction mechanism of a second base with a first link friction mechanism, a second link connected to a second slide slot of the second base with a second movable shaft and connected to a second base friction mechanism of the first base with a second link friction mechanism, and a joint shaft to connect the first link to the second link at a joint.
