Abstract

See full text

A hinge for coupling a closure member to a support includes a first hinge member and a second hinge member pivotably mounted on the first hinge member through the intermediary of two rolling bearings that are placed between different abutments. The hinge further includes a damping mechanism for damping a closing movement of the closure member; and an energy storing mechanism for storing energy when opening the closure member and using the energy to close the closure member. One of the rolling bearings supports the weight of a right-handed closure member while the other of the rolling bearings supports the weight of a left-handed closure member if the first hinge member is always fixed to the same element.
