The present invention provides for a robust one-piece hinge body which is suitable to withstand strain of rough handling. The novel one-piece hinge body includes a first profile portion (130) which is configured to at least partially enclose a first profile. The hinge body (100) also includes a second profile portion (140) which is configured to at least partially enclose a second profile which is parallel to the first profile. The hinge body (100) further has an outer portion (110) which connects the first and second profile portions (130, 140) and which is located on the outside of the hinge joint of the pivoted profiles. The body (100) also includes an inner portion (120) which opposes the outer portion and connects the first and second profile portions (130, 140) while being located on the inside of the hinge joint of the pivoted profiles. According to the invention the inner portion (120) consists of joinable terminal ends (150, 160) of the first and second profile portions (130, 140), wherein a mating surface (200) is formed between said joined terminal ends (150, 160). Accordingly, the outer portion (110) is solid for withstanding retraction upon closing movement of the hinge. |
