Abstract
A covering element for a furniture hinge has a central channel portion which is substantially U-shaped in cross-section. The sides of the U-shaped section are extended at one end beyond the base of the U and the extensions have aligned holes formed in them to receive a pin for pivotal connection to a hinge member. The cover encloses parts of the hinge used for adjusting the relative angular and spatial positions of the hinge members, to prevent accidental displacement. In the closed position of the covering element, inwardly turned extensions of the channel edges form a snap fit around a hinge casing, and the end of the hinge is enclosed by an angled-over extension of the channel base.
