Electronic device and hinge structure
A hinge structure includes a first bracket, a second bracket, a first fixing member connected to the first bracket, a second fixing member connected to the second bracket, a first linking member, a second linking member, a first resilient member, a second resilient member, a first linking bar pivotally connected to the second bracket, a second linking bar pivotally connected to the first bracket, a first sliding member and a second sliding member. The first linking member and the first resilient member are disposed on the first fixing member. The second linking member and the second resilient member are disposed on the second fixing member. The first linking bar is pivotally connected to the second linking bar. The first sliding member is connected to the first linking member and the first linking bar. The second sliding member is connected to the second linking member and the second linking bar.

a second fixing member connected to the second bracket;
a first linking member movably disposed on the first fixing member;
a second linking member movably disposed on the second fixing member;
a first resilient member disposed on the first fixing member, opposite ends of the first resilient member abutting against the first fixing member and the first linking member;
a second resilient member disposed on the second fixing member, opposite ends of the second resilient member abutting against the second fixing member and the second linking member;
a first linking bar pivotally connected to the second bracket;
a second linking bar pivotally connected to the first bracket, the first linking bar and the second linking bar being pivotally connected to each other;
a first sliding member disposed in the first sliding groove and pivotally connecting the first linking member to the first linking bar; and
a second sliding member disposed in the second sliding groove and pivotally connecting the second linking member to the second linking bar.
2. The hinge structure of claim 1 , wherein the first sliding member is located at a first end of the first sliding groove when the first bracket is expanded with respect to the second bracket, the first sliding member is located at a second end of the first sliding groove when the first bracket is folded with respect to the second bracket, and a width of the first sliding groove increases gradually from the first end to the second end.
3. The hinge structure of claim 1 , wherein the first sliding member is located at a first end of the first sliding groove when the first bracket is expanded with respect to the second bracket, the first sliding member is located at a second end of the first sliding groove when the first bracket is folded with respect to the second bracket, and the first sliding groove has two protruding portions opposite to each other and adjacent to the first end.
4. The hinge structure of claim 1 , further comprising a flexible sleeve disposed on the first sliding member.
5. An electronic device comprising:
a device body; and
a hinge structure disposed on the device body, the hinge structure comprising:
