An abutment member4of a first hinge member A1is pressed against a cam member8of a second hinge member A2by a coiled spring6.By this, an interval between an enlarged diameter portion31of an insertion member3of the first hinge member A1and a connecting plate portion72of the second hinge member A2,is restricted to a predetermined interval. In other words, an interval between the end faces31a, 72aof the enlarged diameter portion31and the connecting plate portion72is restricted to a predetermined interval. A friction member10composed of an elastic material such as a rubber is disposed between the end faces31a, 72a.
