Abstract

An exemplary double hinge assembly (30) includes a first hinge subassembly (31), a second hinge subassembly (32), a first bracket (35), a second bracket (36) and a connecting member. The first hinge subassembly (31) includes a first rotatable pivot shaft (311). The second hinge subassembly (32) includes a second rotatable pivot shaft (321). The first bracket (35) is fixed to the first rotatable pivot shaft (311), and the second bracket (36) is fixed to the second rotatable pivot shaft (321). The first hinge subassembly (31) and the second hinge subassembly (32) are rotatably mounted to the connecting member respectively. A rotating axis of the first rotatable pivot shaft (311) is substantially parallel to a rotating axis of the second rotatable pivot shaft (321). In addition, an electronic device (50) using the double hinge assembly (30) is also provided.
