Abstract

See full text

An exemplary hinge (36, 88) is used to connect a body door (84, 162) in movable operative connection with a body (12, 102). The hinge enables selectively moving the door to open and close a body opening (82, 164). The hinge includes a primary hinge butt (38, 90) which includes a primary hinge butt knuckle (40, 104). A primary hinge strap (60, 114) includes a primary hinge strap knuckle (62, 116) which enables relative rotational movement of the primary hinge butt and the primary hinge strap. The door is in operatively attached connection with the primary hinge strap. A secondary hinge butt (132) may be in operative connection with the primary hinge strap to enable relative rotational movement of the door relative to the primary hinge strap in the hinge open position. A disengageable latch may be used to hold the secondary hinge butt in a fixed rotational position.
