ABSTRACT:
A three-part hinge mechanism is disclosed as a concealed hinge with two of the parts being first and second mounting brackets interconnected by a link. The first mounting bracket has means for mounting on an enclosure and the second mounting bracket has means for mounting on a cover for the enclosure. The hinge is concealed and permits the cover to be lifted or translated directly away from the enclosure by a sliding connection within the hinge and then the sliding connection becomes also a pivotal connection so that the cover may be pivoted to one side. This permits a relatively deep cover to enclose components mounted within the enclosure and closely adjacent the walls of the cover. By the first translational movement, the cover will clear these components and then the cover may be pivoted to one side. Additionally, the hinge may be readily connected and disconnected so that the cover may be completely moved out of the way for access to the components within the enclosure. The foregoing abstract is merely a resume of one general application, is not a complete discussion of all principles of operation or applications, and is not to be construed as a limitation on the scope of the claimed subject matter.
