  • the return means are constituted springs or pistons which are complex and fragile parts tolerating, sometimes quite badly, repetitive efforts.
  • hinges require lubrication (oils, fats %) which can be a source of pollution.
  • the object of the present invention is to solve the problems previous techniques or at least mitigate them.

  • said cam is formed of the prismatic end of the connecting member ensuring, during the rotation of the panel, by its edges, on the one hand, elastic compression of the ring and by its lateral faces, on the other hand, stopping and maintaining said panel in as many angular positions of equilibrium.
  • the end prismatic of the connecting member has three lateral faces connected at 90 ° by curvilinear edges.
  • said ring includes lateral ears intended to immobilize it between said cam, on the one hand, and a stop integral with the movable fixing element, on the other hand.
  • said cam is retained in contact with the ring between two hollow cylinders, integral with the movable fixing element and receiving, on either side of said cam, the ends of the central shaft.
  • the first mobile element fixing consists of a bracket intended to be assembled with a substantially parallel flange so as to trap, on the one hand, in the central intermediate space, both, said ring and said cam and at on the other hand, ensuring the tightening of said element around the periphery of a notch made on the edge of said opening panel.
  • the central intermediate space delimited between the stirrup and the flange of the movable fixing element is occupied by a shim surrounding the housing cavity of the ring.
  • bracket will be assembled with the flange at by means of a screw intended to be anchored in a bush forming a spacer integral with the stirrup or the flange and which projects into the cavity at the center of the ring.
  • said cam comprises a conduit internally traversed by the central shaft while providing a degree of freedom in rotation.
  • said connecting member is integral, on the opposite side to the cam, from a fastening element to a fixed panel.

  • the return means consist of a removable ring 4, housed in a cavity 10 of the movable element 1 of fixation.
  • Ring 4 is susceptible to elastic deformation, as shown in dotted lines in FIG. 2a, by pressing a cam 30 rotatable around a central shaft 5 arranged along the axis X, parallel to the planes of the panels P1, P2, being carried by the connecting member 3.
  • the dynamic connection between the cam 30 and the shaft 5 is provided by bearings 6.
  • the ring 4 has ears lateral 41, 42 intended to immobilize it between the cam 30, on the one hand, and a stop 14, integral with the movable fixing element 1, on the other hand.
