ABSTRACT:
A lock hinge preferably, but not exclusively, for use with a hatch cover structure for a transportation vehicle. The lock hinge comprises a latch bracket and a base bracket. The base bracket is provided with a pivot bar. The latch bracket has a saddle member defining a hinge seat with a mouth opening for receiving at least a portion of the pivot bar therein. The latch bracket further is provided with a latch member having a lever end and a gate end. The latch member is interconnected to the saddle member by a flexible plate whereby the gate end is displaceably positioned adjacent the mouth opening of the hinge seat to retain the pivot bar captive in the hinge seat to interconnect both the latch and base brackets. When secured to a hatch cover, which normally closes the hatch opening in a wall of the vehicle, at least one lock hinge is secured on a respective one of a pair of opposed sides of the cover.
