Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A hinge device for adjusting a position of a door, includes a first member attached to a main body, a second member rotatable about a rotation axis with respect to the first member, a returner adapted to return the second member to a predetermined position, a base attachable to the door to be swingable about the rotation axis with respect to the second member, and a position adjusting member allowing an angle formed between the second member and the base around the rotation axis to be adjusted.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A hinge device comprising: a first member attached to a main body; a second member rotatable about the first member around a rotation axis of the first member; a returner comprising a coil spring or a cam to return the second member to a predetermined position relative to the first member; a base attachable to a door to be swingable about the rotation axis with respect to the second member; and a position adjusting member allowing an angle formed between the second member and the base about the rotation axis to be adjusted, wherein the position adjusting member engages with a part of the second member and a part of the base to adjust the angle. 2. The hinge device in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the position adjusting member comprises a position adjusting screw screwed with the second member and having a head entering an opening of the base. 3. The hinge device in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the second member and the base are coupled to each other by means of a coupling shaft provided substantially in parallel to the rotation axis. 4. The hinge device in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the first member has a shaft member, the second member has a cylindrical portion into which the shaft member is at least partially inserted, and the base has a hole into which the cylindrical portion of the second member is fitted.
