ABSTRACT:
A furniture hinge comprises a first (11) and a second (12) fastening element designed to be secured to two furniture parts to be hinged together, and an arm (15) which ends at one extremity with the first fastening element (11) and at the other extremity has a pivot (16) pivoting it to the second fastening element (12) to achieve the joint of the hinge. The arm (15) is made in two portions (17, 18) sliding reciprocally upon operation of adjusting means (22) composed of a cam (23) to allow adjustment of the reciprocal position of the first and second fastening element. Advantageously, the sliding surface (20) of the second portion (18) comprises an elongated housing (24) to receive the cam (23) with a lateral surface of the cam which reacts against the side walls of the housing. The sliding surface (19) of the first portion (17) comprises a through hole (25) which receives, with a minimum of side play, a control pin (26) protruding from the cam so as to be operated from the outside.
