Hinges

Hinges are mechanical components that allow rotational movement between two parts. They consist of two leaves connected by a pin or shaft that enables them to pivot, facilitating the opening and closing of doors, windows, lids, and similar objects. Hinges are commonly used in the construction industry for doors and windows and in various industrial settings such as machine covers, cabinets, and enclosures. Different types of hinges include concealed hinges, butt hinges, spring hinges, and continuous hinges. Relevant standards include DIN 7310 for hinge dimensions and tolerances and ANSI/BHMA A156.1 for mechanical hinges in the U.S. Applying these standards ensures that hinges function effectively and have a long service life across different applications. Well-known manufacturers like Yiheda, Hefa and Ganter, along with other leading manufacturers, offer their 3D CAD models on 3Dfindit, including hinges.
