ABSTRACT:
A hinge includes a stationary fitting base plate part, which fitting base plate part is connected with a pivotal fitting part. The hinge is able to be pivoted for lateral adjustment of a door or flap carried by the pivotal fitting part, in relation to the base plate part by a setting device in the pivot plane of the hinge. A stop member which bears on a hinge arm and is acted upon by a resilient element, is, via a cam, able to be pivoted with the pivotal fitting part and urges the pivotal fitting part in the closing part of its range of movement towards its closed position whereas outside such closing range it is rendered ineffective by the cam. To ensure that, when performing lateral adjustment by pivoting the hinge arm, that the closing device still remains effective in the closing range, the bearing member of the stop member is so linked with the hinge arm and with the base plate by guides and/or transmission members that it is moved by each pivotal movement of the hinge arm in relation to the base plate into a setting, in which it maintains substantially the same position in relation to the cam in the closed position.
