I will present how I fixed the broken hinge on a laptop. Looks like it might not too elegant, but you can still use the laptop. This is not difficult, and can do this.
The laptop is damaged hinge snatching metal bushing. For the sleeve was screwed hinge.

After the threaded screws into the hinge holes in the nut I put a small amount of glue. Always do when there is a probability to unscrew the nut. The glue is not as strong with metal-to-metal connections so you don't stick a nut and protects against its arbitrary you unscrew. In addition, applied the nut so that probably held screw hinge from Cabinet.
