Having Means To Facilitate Assembly And Disassembly Of Hinge Sections To Join Or Disjoin Hinged Members Patents (Class 16/254)
  • Patent number: 4340991
    Abstract: A demountable hinge is disclosed for mounting a door to a frame. The hinge is particularly suitable for cabinets such as kitchen cabinets and includes a first section, and a second section pivotally attached to the first section to provide rotative hinge action. The first section includes a generally rectangular tab portion which has a button-like projection upstanding from one side and is dimensioned to be received by a correspondingly configured receiver strap securable by screws to the frame. The receiver strap is constructed of resilient material and includes an aperture which is dimensioned and located to receive the button-like projection in resilient snapped engagement to retain the first section on the frame. The second section may either be adjustably fastened directly to the door by screws of the like, or it may be demountably attached to the door in a manner similar to that used to mount the first section to a frame.
