    Hello
    In my Sony Vaio SVE14 the hinges broke off the matrix flap. Anyone have any idea to put them back with the flap?

    Glue these threads in the same place with some 2-component epoxy glue. You have some space around, so make a solid pack of such glue

    I forgot to provide quite important information about the material of the flap, so it's plastic> PC + ABS

    The matrix flap works so I don't know if it will fall apart again after the time of opening and closing. Look for A ... even used flaps may not be expensive.

    The problem is that there is no auction with such a flap, and my flap is in perfect condition and I wanted to use it even more because it is in color

    Glue with glue, it has "Plastic Welding" in the name, which means "plastic welding". I tested it like plastic.

    Have you tested on the hinge?

    Hello
    PAN-B did you manage to make this flap? Because I have a similar problem, even worse, because my hatch cracked at the hinges.

    I haven't repaired the jar yet, because I didn't have time to get down to it, but when I do it I'll let you know how it turned out
    Added after 7 [minutes]:
    I would like to buy the entire hatch, replace the matrix, screw it to the old hinges, and that's it. I was looking for on Allegro and there are no such, and on eBay they cost too much.

    There are nice adhesives, I saw thinner soniacs glued on them, but ... to replace later the matrix tape must be broken because you have to glue the whole thing, not just the threads - unfortunately I do not know what this great glue was because I do not use adhesives as the main repair element, I will show you How do I do it if the cost of a new hatch is beyond common sense, unfortunately you must have a large selection of screws, so you would have to have an additional 6 of those you have for the hinges now.

    It is true that I have photos on hand with Lenovo, but the principle is the same, I also do ultra-thin Samsungi and Sony.

    In photo no.1, the threads are just deposited on the droplet so that they are stable during assembly, you can also put them on a poksipol as long as you don't drip everything, you can also put some poksipol on it for stability as shown in no.2.

    For such things I use a two-component adhesive with the graceful name "liquid metal" by Dragon [EAN: 5903649017543]. I bought it in some DIY store, probably in Obi, but I'm not sure.

    In fact, I use it to stick metal sleeves into broken sockets, if a piece of the socket is missing - then I position the sleeve on the remaining remnants and use the same glue to fill the gaps. The glue is for the patient (it dries for a long time, I give it even 24 hours for it to dry well). The result is a block that can be ground and drilled with a fairly high strength.

    I found sample photos of Gateway, in which it looked much worse than in Soniak Kolegi. It is true that I glued the bottom, but the top can also be done, the more so that a lot of the original sockets have remained with my colleague. A few souvenir photos from Gateway:

    The broken debris, which usually rattles in the laptop before unscrewing, is positioned with a droplet before being poured with glue, so that it will hold on until the proper glue dries.

    The glue is thin (the consistency is similar to honey), so I set limits (it is worth trying the hinge mounting to see where this glue can be poured with impunity). It is also worth checking if there is an LCD cable passing somewhere, or some other coming out of the matrix box. Adhesive restraints are made of double-sided foam tape. It does not have to be perfectly tight, the glue does not flow through very small holes. It is also a good idea to cover the bottom of the sleeves with tape (I use a paper - repair one) so that the glue does not flow into the screw hole.

    If it is possible, it is worth loosening the screw on the hinge axis a bit (the hatch moves more loosely and rocks a little more, but there is less risk of it breaking out). If the hinge cannot be adjusted and it moves hard (it is jammed), it is worth replacing it (along with the hinge on the other side, it is best to replace the whole pair). If we install a worn hinge, the situation will probably repeat itself soon.

    The laptop from the photos above has been working for half a year and nothing breaks, the hatch works nicely, the housing does not crack, does not come apart, so the repair can be considered successful. Earlier, I glued several other models on this principle, the glue works quite well.

    In this situation, in my opinion, you should pick out the remnants of the plastic in which the threaded sockets are embedded so that the larger surface of the sleeves is connected with this miracle, although I have not seen this glue, but thanks for the description and photos, you convinced me to make the test.

    You stick to the side of the board, it holds it, because you can give a lot of this glue and the screws are long, but from the die side it should stick, but usually you can pour less glue and give shorter screws.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around repairing broken hinges on the matrix flap of a Sony Vaio SVE14 laptop. Users suggest using two-component epoxy glue or specialized adhesives like "Plastic Welding" for reattachment. One participant mentions the flap's material is PC + ABS plastic, which influences the choice of adhesive. Concerns are raised about the durability of the repair, with suggestions to consider replacing the entire flap if repairs fail. Some users share experiences with similar repairs and recommend specific adhesives, including "liquid metal" by Dragon, known for its strong bonding properties. The challenge of sourcing replacement parts is also highlighted, with users noting the difficulty in finding the correct flap on auction sites.
