Abstract: A hinge device for mounting a motor vehicle door on a bodywork is proposed. The hinge device includes a hinge component which is screwed to the vehicle door. By means of two articulated joints, the component is articulated on the bodywork. Each of the two articulated joints has an axis of articulation. The two axes of articulation are intersecting and extending preferably perpendicular to each other. The hinge component to be mounted to the door is provided with a protrusion which is moved, during the opening movement, in a guideway attached to the bodywork. The form of the guideway is decisive for the opening movement of the door.
