A hinge assembly, for use on cargo containers, which comprises a hinge leaf 1 adapted to be secured to a container door and pivotally attached to a frame 6 by means of a pin 3 carried from a mounting 2a, 2b on the frame 6. The leaf 1 and mounting 2a, 2b being provided with stop means 4, 5 which permit unrestricted movement of the door about the pivot pin 3, but which co-operate to prevent movement of the door about a distal parallel axis, e.g. that defined by a rod lock, if the pivot pin 3 is removed. The hinge assembly offers increased security when used with customs seals to secure the container doors together to prevent theft. |
