ABSTRACT:
A hinge for motor vehicle hood, trunk lids or the like where a plurality of arms are connected by pivot-forming rivets and spacer rings are provided between the arms with at least one of the spacer rings being made of a thermoplastic material and the hinge being annealed after the setting of the rivet about which the thermoplastic spacer ring is located. As a result, prestressing of the thermoplastic spacer ring created by the rivet setting is relieved. Spacer rings are provided between the original head of each rivet and an adjacent one of said arms as well as at an opposite side of the adjacent arms. Furthermore, the thickness of the spacing ring located at the side of the adjacent arms opposite from the original rivet head is of a thickness approximately double that of the spacer ring that is located between the original rivet and said adjacent arm.
