Abstract
A hinge apparatus connects a first member and a second member to each other so that the first and second members are mutually foldable, and is usable with a computing apparatus. The hinge apparatus includes first and second main gears which are disposed on the first and the second members, respectively, a plurality of idle gears which are disposed between the first and the second main gears so that the first and the second main gears are interlocked with each other, and a pressure member which reinforces a mesh force between the first and the second main gears and the plurality of idle gears.
