ABSTRACT:
A self-closing, non-rising hinge in cartridge form fits into a socket, generally, in the upper edge of a door. The hinge mechanism is completely enclosed within a housing and provides a strong returning force for closing a door. The hinge is reversible in that it can be mounted for opening the door either from the left or from the right. Where two doors are present, one above the other, as in refrigerators, the hinge may be inserted, in inverted position, into the lower edge of the door to minimize space requirements.
