ABSTRACT:
A double pivot notch-brake hinge for securing a door to a motor vehicle body, including a first leaf or connector securable to a door pillar of the vehicle body, a second leaf or connector securable to the door, and a U-shaped link pivotally connecting the first and the second leaves. The U-shaped link has two opposite legs at its respective ends, and gudgeons for receiving hinge pins and defining, respectively, pillar-side and door-side pivot connections of the U-shaped link with the first and the second connectors. The pillar and door side pivots are checked with a resistance pivot using a notch-brake mechanism, which allows controlled movement of the pivot.
