Abstract
A security hinge joint includes a substantially planar, flexible first member, including first and second blind hinge eyes. A second member is pivotable relative to the first member and includes at least one second open hinge eye which lies between the blind hinge eyes. A hinge pin extends through the second open hinge eye and into the first blind hinge eye. The first blind hinge eye wraps around the end of the hinge pin, enclosing the bottom of the pin when the joint is in a closed position, and is interrupted to define a lead-in slot through which the hinge pin can pass. For insertion or removal of the hinge pin, one end of the first member must be flexed out of the plane of the first member.
