I use ledger nano s for my bitcoin and alts and don't know any other hardware wallet, that supports so many altcoins. Also Coinomi is good to store many altcoins instead of hardware wallet, because keys and seeds can be put on paper or mind wallet.

1) Is there any hardware wallet support Multi coin (at least bitcoin forks)?.
TREZOR has supported both forks and provided a convenient splitting tool.  They have some alts too if you're into that.
2) how can get private key from these wallets?.
They're HD wallets, so the collections of words (the seed that they give you) is used to generate your private keys.  It can be exported and used in several other wallets.
3) can edit settings to get more than 1 wallet for 1 device?.
On the TREZOR, while you have only one seed, you can add different passphrases (an additional string which can be used to strengthen the security of your seed) to create several different wallets.

You can also have different accounts to sort your funds differently, but these aren't separate wallets as such.
useful information, I am interested and want to buy it. but i am confused to buy nano ledger or trezor? is there any difference between these hardware wallets?

They are pretty much the same. Their significant difference I thinks is the price, design and the supported cryptocurrencies. In the end it all comes down to your personal preference. If you want a through comparison on both of them, These articles should help you with that:

I'm with TREZOR from a long time and I like it as a device.

It supports enough coins, at least all popular coins and it's most secure wallet at the market.

I’m Thinking about buying new hardware wallet [for the first time] (ledger or trezor).
Googled it and find these hardware wallets don't provide the private keys or using an extra tool to get private keys.

Ledger does have support for bitcoin forks, atleast i know that they support bitcoin cash,

see https://ledger.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115005174789-How-to-install-and-use-Bitcoin-Cash-BCH-with-Ledger

I believe instead of private keys they'll give you a 24 word seed.

Also, you can put the seed in a bip39 converter and it should generate the private keys.
