  • Patent number: 10415283
    Abstract: The invention disclosed provides a hinge capable of a vertical and overlay adjustment, comprised of a recessed hinge cup and a hinge arm connected to an attachment plate and an abutment plate which are further connected by a deformable hinge section. An overlay adjustment is provided by bending the deformable hinge section through use of an overlay adjustment screw fitted between the attachment plate and the abutment plate. The novel hinge provided is also adjustable vertically via an adjustment screw accessed by a portal in the attachment plate. The design is less complicated and therefore is lighter and less expensive than previous overlay adjustable hinges and allows delicate and semi-permanent adjustments to be made by a single installer.

  • Patent number: 7653967
    Abstract: The invention disclosed provides a compact hinge capable of a vertical, a horizontal, and an overlay adjustment, comprised of a cup portion and a hinge arm with one end pivotably connected to the cup portion and the other end slideably connected to a fastener plate. The fastener plate further comprises a first semi-planar surface for contact with a cabinet frame and a second semi-planar surface for slideable engagement with the hinge arm to accomplish the horizontal adjustment. The first and second semi-planar surfaces are interconnected by a deformable hinge section that allows for an elastically resilient connection at one end and an adjusting screw at the other end for a horizontally arcing movement relative to each resulting in an overlay adjustment. The fastener plate further comprises an elongated aperture in the first semi-planar surface through which the vertical adjustment is accomplished.

  • Patent number: 7594300
    Abstract: An adjustable hinge fixture that includes a base plate for adjustable fixation to an article of furniture, a connecting plate assembly including a generally U-shaped cross-section formed by a top portion and a pair of spaced apart side walls, and an adjustment screw operable to move the connecting plate assembly relative to the base plate about a curved region of the connecting plate assembly. The connecting plate assembly has a projection through a curved region to a lower portion of the projection positioned between the side walls and generally parallel to the top portion. The curved region is elastically deflectable to permit the lower and top portions to move relative to each other. The lower portion is adjustably connected to the base plate.
