Application: Pivot hinged head-mounted display device (Patent ID: US20240201505A1)
The patent filed by Microsoft Corp. relates to single and double pivot hinge assemblies for a head-mounted display (HMD) device. The HMD device includes a wearable support to be worn on a user's head and a head-up display mounted to the support by a hinge assembly. The hinge assembly consists of a mounting component connected to the wearable support, and a bar connected to the mounting component at a first pivot and to the head-up display at a second pivot. The patent includes claims for various features such as variable resistance mechanisms, adjustable stoppers, and adjustment mechanisms to enhance the functionality and adjustability of the hinge assembly.
The patent claims detail specific features and mechanisms incorporated into the hinge assembly of the head-mounted display device. These features include variable resistance mechanisms at the pivots, adjustable stoppers for hard-stop positions, and adjustment mechanisms for positioning the pivot relative to the mounting component and the head-up display. The claims also mention the use of detents, tilt mechanisms with hard-stops, and interlocking features for restricting movement of adjustment mechanisms. Overall, the patent aims to improve the design and functionality of hinge assemblies in HMD devices to provide users with a more adjustable and user-friendly experience.
