Patent attributes
The invention relates to a housing for receiving electric lines and/or connections, comprising a first housing part and a second housing part, said housing parts being connected to one another by means of at least one hinge. Said hinge defines a rotational axis about which the first housing part and the second housing part can pivot against one another, wherein a first hinge part of said hinge is affixed in the first housing part and wherein a second hinge part is affixed in the second housing part. One of the hinge parts is an axle extending in the direction of the rotating axis. The other hinge part is a fixing part extending in peripheral direction of the axle. At least one recess is arranged in one of the hinge parts while at least one protrusion is arranged in the other hinge part so that said protrusion engages in the recess in a given rotational position and/or in different rotational positions over a given rotational angle area.
