Abstract

A furniture hinge is described which comprises a hinge base, and a hingeable arm arrangement adjustably connected to a hinge bracket which is clipped onto the hinge base. The hinge base is attached to a piece of furniture adjacent a door thereof, and the arm arrangement is attached to the door thereof. The invention provides a clip-on arrangement which may be easily operated, requires only a few parts, and operates reliably. In this respect, the hinge base has front and rear extensions projecting away from the base in opposite longitudinal directions. The hinge bracket has a U-shaped cross-section formed by two lateral limbs and a front base limb. The front extensions on the base, which are situated adjacent the door, pivotally engage the front base limb of the U-shaped hinge bracket, and the rear ends of the lateral limbs remote from the door are provided with spring catches which resiliently snap-lock onto the rear extensions of the base.
