Hinge assemblies having a tub knuckle, a lid leaf and a hinge pin assembly are provided. The tub knuckle has a base, a first pin holder extending from the base and a second pin holder extending from the base and spaced from the first pin holder. The lid leaf has a mounting plate and a pin holder. The hinge pin assembly is movable between a closed position and an open position, and includes a hinge pin and a retainer assembly that can be used to lock the hinge pin assembly in the closed and open positions.

In an aspect, a vehicular door hinge is provided and includes a door-hinge component that is configured to mount to a vehicle door and a body-hinge component that is configured to mount to a vehicle body. The door hinge component is pivotally mounted to the body hinge component. A first one of the door- and body-hinge components is made from folded sheet metal and has a fold. Each of the door- and body-hinge components has a stop surface that is engageable with the stop surface on the other of the door- and body-hinge components to limit relative pivoting movement between the door- and body-hinge components. The stop surface on the first of the door- and body-hinge components is at the fold.

A temporary retaining device for use in a vehicle hinge to temporarily lock a vehicle door in an open position relative to a door frame includes a flat portion in which an opening is arranged. A fold protrudes from an edge of the flat portion. A load arm extends from the flat portion. The load arm comprises a projection formed as a retaining lug on an end facing away from the flat portion.

The invention relates to a hinge assembly for a switch cabinet, comprising a housing-side hinge half and a door-side hinge half, which are connected to one another such that they swivel in relation to one another, wherein the housing-side hinge half has a mounting flange for securing to a vertical profile of a switch cabinet housing, as well as two hinge bolts extending in a vertical direction, arranged at a distance to one another in the vertical direction and facing one another with the free ends thereof, wherein the hinge bolts are accommodated in a respective bolt seat of the housing-side hinge half, wherein the hinge bolts are accommodated in their respective bolt seat such that they cannot move at least in the vertical direction, and in that they protrude from the respective bolt seat via their free ends, wherein the door-side hinge half has a bolt-receiving means with a vertical measurement that is less than or equal to the distance of the free ends of the hinge bolts.

A hinge device includes: a first and a second hinge components having a common reference axis; and a power generating device. The first and the second hinge components are engaged with each other, so as to be rotatable about the reference axis relative to each other, and so that one of the first and the second hinge components supports the other. The power generating device includes a housing and an input shaft, and generates electric power by rotation of the input shaft. The housing of the power generating device is fixed to the first hinge component, so that the input shaft of the power generating device is positioned on the reference axis. The input shaft of the power generating device is restrained to the second hinge component with respect to the direction of rotation about the reference axis, so that the input shaft of the power generating device rotates by as much as rotation of the second hinge component when the second hinge component rotates about the reference axis.

A pivoting-connection device connecting at least two components and comprising a clevis having first and second branches, an arm positioned between the first and second branches of the clevis, a cylindrical pin connecting the clevis and the arm, at least one guide ring which has a flange configured to bear against an interior face of the first branch, an immobilizing system configured to occupy a free state and a blocked state in which the cylindrical pin and the guide ring are immobilized with respect to one another in the longitudinal direction, in both senses of that direction, and a blocking system configured to occupy an unfitted state and a blocked state in which the blocking system is in contact with the exterior face of the first branch.

A gate hinge for a preferably wooden post which includes an L-shaped rod threaded on one leg with a metal strap rigidly connected to the threaded leg at about one and one half inches from the elbow of the rod on the threaded leg. The metal strap extends six or so inches form each side of the L-shaped rod with two or more holes near each end of the strap. The L-shaped rod is threaded into the post until the metal strap contacts the post. Then each leg of the metal bracket is bent around the post and screws or lag bolts are threaded through the holes and into the post to help secure the hinge to the post and to provide added support for the gate.

A hinge assembly includes a first hinged body, a pivot pin assembly, and a second hinged body. The first hinged body includes a channel. The pivot pin assembly includes a pin body configured to slideably engage the channel. The pivot pin assembly may be translated within the channel and adjustably secured along the channel. The pin body includes a downwardly extending pin. The second hinged body comprises a pin aperture configured to cooperatively receive the pin. The first hinged body and the second hinged body are configured to hingedly pivot along a hinge axis defined by the pin when the pin is received in the pin aperture. The pin body may include a pin body aperture configured to receive an alignment fastener such that the pin body may be tilt adjusted relative to the first hinged body.
