Abstract
A self-closing hinge with a concealed switch is provided. The hinge has a cam follower formed on a movable member which rides on a cam formed in a stationary member, causing the movable member to move up and down with respect to the stationary member, as the movable member is pivoted about on axis defined by the stationary member. An actuator button mounted in the stationary member abuts a projection on the movable member at a predetermined position of the movable member for actuating a switch assembly concealed within the stationary member. The switch assembly may be used to activate a variety of circuits.
