Abstract: The invention relates to a hinge for a stove door, comprising a housing (1) in which a plug-in part (2) is rotationally (10) mounted. In order to be able to easily influence the torque produced by the spring, a spring guide (3) which is loaded by a spring (6), preferably a pressure spring, is provided, said spring guide being fitted with roller (15) that is guided through a curved section (9) of the plug-in part (2).

Abstract: A hinge possesses a casing portion (1) and a lid portion (4) which is movably supported, preferably pivoted (3), on the casing portion (3). So that the hinge can be assembled in a more simple manner, a retaining part (18) is provided on the casing portion (1) or the lid portion (4) by means of which the relative position of both parts (1, 4) is fixed in place (FIG. 1).
