A hinge for pivotally connecting first (1) and second (3) members, which comprises a body (2) for connection to the member 1, a socket (4) for connection to the member 3, an outer arm (5) connected at one end thereof to the socket 4 and at the other end to the body 2, an inner arm (6) pivotally connected at one end to the socket 4 and at the other end to a floating pivot (O) movable in forward and rearward directions during opening and closing of the hinge, and guide means B between said one end of the arm 6 and the body 2 for guiding the movement of the floating pivot O. When a door (3) is opening, the means B guides the floating pivot O forwardly towards the door to move the latter away from the first member (1). Preferably a link (7) is pivoted to the body (2) and to the said other end of the arm (6). The guide may be a pivoted link 8, a pin slidable in a slot, a gear cooperating with a member etc. <IMAGE> |
