Patent attributes
A hinge, providing a swinging function for a first object attached thereto with respect to a stationary object attached thereto, includes a first leaf; a second leaf; and a pintle. The first leaf has a first knuckle. The second leaf has a second knuckle forming a volume for receiving said pintle. The second knuckle has a contact arm located within the volume. The pintle has a first stop surface feature and a second stop surface feature. The first stop surface feature causes the swinging function of the first object to stop when the contact arm of the second knuckle engages, by contact, the first stop surface feature. The second stop surface feature causes the swinging function of the first object to stop when the contact arm of the second knuckle engages, by contact, the second stop surface feature.
