ABSTRACT:
A hinge mechanism for an overhead baggage compartment which is generally located in the passenger section of an airliner. The hinge mechanism comprises, a dual-cam guided four-bar linkage mechanism which produces a compound motion to the door for retraction through a relatively narrow horizontal opening into an area above the baggage compartment. Ordinarily, a four-bar linkage mechanism would have its operation designed around two fixed pivot points; however, in this disclosure there is only one fixed pivot point and the other of said pivots is a walking pivot which is guided by a dual-cam device for profiling the travel of the door.
