Cabinet hinge

摘要

Cabinet hinge whose cabinet-wall-related part in the form of a cantilever arm can be slipped onto a mounting plate installed on the wall of a cabinet and can then be fixed at selected positions on the mounting plate by tightening a screw. The mounting plate bears a resilient catch which, at the beginning of the installation of the cantilever arm engages an abutment on the latter and thus secures it against accidental withdrawal from the mounting plate, without interfering with its movement for longitudinal adjustment on the mounting plate. The catch is provided on a leaf spring which is fastened at one end within the mounting plate while its free end bearing the catch protrudes through an opening in the mounting plate. The arm-holding screw is passed with clearance through an oversize hole in the mounting plate and driven into a threaded eye in the leaf spring.
