Cabinet hinge

摘要

Cabinet hinge whose jamb-related part in the form of an arm can be fastened at selectable positions along the length of a mounting plate attached to a jamb on a cabinet carcase by sliding it onto the mounting plate and then tightening a screw. The mounting plate has a spring catch element which as the installation of the arm begins snaps into a corresponding cutout or recess in the arm of the hinge and thus screws it against accidental withdrawal from the mounting plate, without interfering with its further movement for the purpose of a longitudinal adjustment of the arm on the mounting plate. The spring catch has a prolongation brought out of an opening in the cabinet-interior end of the mounting plate, and this prolongation can be shifted resiliently such that the cooperating abutments of the spring catch and opening become disengaged from one another.
