Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to a hinge having five degrees of freedom for adjustment of a door leaf or a window leaf, said hinge allowing transitional movement in three axes (X,Y,Z) and rotational movement around two axes (X, Y). Said hinge comprises a first hinge element, a second hinge element, a hinge pin for connecting said hinge elements to each other, an adjustment plate attached to said first hinge element, a first channel on said first hinge, an asymmetric first adjustment element which is attached to said adjustment plate and which is guided in the first channel such that said asymmetric first adjustment element provides mobility in one axis (+/- Z) when rotated. Said hinge further comprises, an asymmetric second adjustment element provides transitional movement in one axis (+/- X) and rotational movement around one axis (Y) when rotated, at least one hole on said first hinge element, and at least one third adjustment element which is guided in said at least one hole and which provides transitional movement in one axis (+/- Y) and rotational movement around one axis (X) when rotated.
