Abstract

A support stand includes a supporting leg and a hinge subassembly. The supporting leg includes a connecting portion. The hinge subassembly includes a shaft and a leaf rotatably sleeved on the shaft. The shaft has a connecting portion engaging with the connecting portion of the supporting leg. One of the connecting portions of the supporting leg and the shaft is a connecting slot, and the other one of the connecting portions of the supporting leg and the shaft is a protrusion engaged in the connecting slot, thus fixing the shaft to the supporting leg. A friction is created between the shaft and the leaf.
