  • the drop-down door is configured to rotate by an angle of 50°-70°, that is, the range of the angel a is 50°-70°.
  • the hinge 10 is located at a position between the position n2 and the position n3, in which case the tensioning force produced by the main spring 16 is larger than the load weight of the hinge 10, and thus the hinge may rotate from the position n2 to the position n3 rapidly in a range of the angle b.
  • the drop-down door is configured to rotate by an angle of 10°-15°, that is, the range of the angel b is 10°-15°.
  • the hinge 10 is located at a position between the position n3 and the position n4, in which case the tensioning force produced by the main spring 16 is larger than the load weight of the hinge 10, and thus the hinge may rotate from the position n3 to the position n4 slowly in the range of the angle c.
  • the drop-down door is configured to rotate by an angle of 10°-25°, that is, the range of the angel c is 10°-25°.
  • the drop-down door may be closed automatically and slowly in a designed angle range, thus improving the using experience of the user.
  • a device in a preferable embodiment of the present invention includes a device body and a drop-down door.
  • the device includes the above hinge 10.
  • the first assembly 12 is fixedly disposed to the drop-down door
  • the second assembly 14 is fixedly disposed to the device body.
  • the device is an oven.
  • the oven only serves as an example, but is not used to limit the present disclosure.
  • the drop-down door of the device may be closed automatically and slowly, which prevents the drop-down door of the device from being damaged due to a rapid closing caused by overexertion.
