ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a means and method of hinging a glass door panel on an adjoining wall, either glass or non-glass. This invention uses a friction clamping method to secure the glass between surfaces lined with flexible gaskets. When torque is applied to the clamp screws, the flexible gaskets swell laterally to provide a large gripping surface area. The invention also includes an actuating mechanism that allows for wide range of rotation with absolute reputability. The actuating mechanism utilizes a main pivot roller that incorporates two indexing detents. A spring loaded sub pin roller rotates along the periphery of the main pivot roller providing a consistent index to each of the two detents.
