Furniture hinge

The invention is a cabinet hinge that has a hinge arm or hinge fastened on a hinge cup; the hinge arm, that can be adjusted by means of an adjusting plate, can be connected to a fastening baseplate on the cabinet/furniture, and has a catch connection provided in order to make this connection. According to the invention the adjusting plate is a one piece, partially resilient snap-on component that on one side has hook-shaped shanks that link with the baseplate and on the other side has shanks that engage into corresponding catch nose projections of the baseplate when pressure is placed on the adjusting plate by a suitable means forces sliding motion of the adjusting plate relative to the baseplate. Then the resilient component of the adjusting plate is secured against further shifting.

Cabinet hinge

A fastener system for mounting a furniture fitting includes a pair of spreader dowels supported in corresponding holes in the fastening flange of a furniture fitting. Each spreader dowel includes an expandable dowel with an inner notch and a noncircular spreader screw within the inner notch. The spreader screw expands the dowel with a 90-degree turn of the spreader screw, and each spreader screw is provided with a cover cap from which a crank extends. The respective dowels are expanded by rotating the respective cranks through a 90-degree turn from a position substantially parallel to one another to a position overlapping one another.
