Abstract (en)

A hinge device 3 includes a first hinge body 4 to be attached to a furniture main body and a second hinge body 6 to be attached to a door. The first hinge body 4 includes a base member 5, a main hinge member 30, a positional adjustment mechanism M for adjusting the position of the main hinge member 30 with respect to the base member 5. The positional adjustment mechanism M includes a female-threaded part 37 formed in the main hinge member 30, a receptacle hole 28 formed in the base member 5 and an adjustment screw 70 screwed into the female-threaded part 37. The adjustment screw 70 includes a neck part 73 and nip parts 76, 77 larger in diameter than the neck part 73. The nip parts 76, 77 include a pair of engagement faces 76a, 77a, which nip engagement parts 29 formed on the opposite sides of the receptacle hole 28. The rotation control member 80 made of resin, which is prevented from rotating relative to the base member 5 and the main hinge member 30, has a frictional engagement part 85. The frictional engagement part 85 is held in the receptacle hole 28 while frictionally engaging with the pair of engagement faces 76a, 77a, thereby preventing the rotation of the adjustment screw 70. The neck part 73 of the adjustment screw 70 penetrates the frictional engagement part 85.
