Hey guys,

Just looking for some infomation on the mechanism used for slide phones, perhaps an illustration if someone has it handy.
As far as I know it’s springs, but still having trouble wraping my head around the mechanism in use.

Thanks in advance.

I realize this is quite late…

But you might find what you need on this website:

They manufacture all sorts of hinges for phones.

Check out SUGATSUNE, they make all sorts of hinges, etc.

You can also pick up replacement phone slider mechanisms from ebay - picked up one for a university project a few year back, great to take apart and actually see how the thing worked!
