Abstract
An article is provided with resilient hinges becoming rigid under tension, comprising at least two rigid elements (2,3), means for hinging these two elements together and means for locking these elements with respect to each other in a folded up position. The hinge means (1) comprise a part with resilient properties (4) connecting these two elements together, said hinge means being adapted so as to cause the part with resilient properties to occupy a relaxed position when the two elements are not locked with respect to each other and a tensioned position when the two elements are locked with respect to each other. Good rigidity of the hinge joining the two elements together is thus provided when the locking means are activated.
