Abstract
A hinge for furniture comprises a bowl (11) adapted to be fastened to a door (12) of a piece of furniture and a wing (13) designed to be fixed to the piece of furniture. The wing has an end (15) which is pivotally mounted to the bowl for rotation relative to the bowl and a spring (17) is received in the bowl, the thrust end (19) of the spring exerting pressure on cam means (20) placed on the wing to move the wing towards a near steady position corresponding to the open or closed hinge position. The spring has a reaction end (21) reacting on the bowl at a rest surface (22) keeping said reaction end (21) oriented in a direction non-parallel to the bowl bottom. Advantageously, the spring reaction end is directed opposite to the bowl bottom and the rest surface (22) is a side wall of the bowl.
