Abstract
A single articulation door hinge includes a base plate and a one-piece hinge arm. The base plate and hinge arm are quickly disconnected by a snap-in locking device to allow easy removal of a door from a cabinet frame, for example. The catch spring includes two substantially parallel sides releasably engageable with the base plate with one side having a catch shank and the other second side having a nose disposed toward one another. The catch spring further includes a scroll spring disposed between the shank and nose, biased toward the nose to engage and secure the catch spring against the hinge arm.
