The present invention provides a small, cylindrical hinge, or pivoting pin (5), which can be configured to produce various profiles of torque versus angle. The desired profile of torque versus angle is achieved by the shapes of the hinge shaft and the spring plates (9) of the hinge. Detents at one or more angular positions can be achieved, with or without frictional damping torque at other angles. The friction of our hinge is produced symmetrically about the hinge axis, eliminating the problems associated with asymmetric construction.

L'invention concerne une petite charnière cylindrique, ou broche pivotante, qui peut être configurée pour obtenir divers rapports entre le couple et l'angle. C'est grâce aux formes de l'arbre du pivot et des plaques de ressort du pivot qu'il est possible d'obtenir le rapport désiré entre le couple et l'angle. Il est possible de réaliser l'encliquetage dans une ou plusieurs position(s) angulaire(s), avec ou sans couple d'amortissement par friction sous d'autres angles. La friction de la charnière se produit de manière symétrique autour de son axe, ce qui permet d'éviter les problèmes liés à la construction asymétrique.
