(54) Three-bar hinge


(57) This invention relates to a three-bar hinge (4), and in particular to a three-bar hinge incorporating a restrictor, most suitably for use with a top swing window. The three-bar hinge (4) has a main bar (11). The main bar is indirectly connected to a base (10) by way of two link bars (12, 13), each link bar being pivotably connected to the base (10) and to the main bar (11). One of the link bars (12) and the base (10) has a respective restrictor peg (16) and a restrictor opening (17), the restrictor peg being locatable in the restrictor opening in order to limit the movement of the main bar relative to the base, and thereby restrict the opening movement of a window panel. The restrictor peg (16) is releasable from the restrictor opening (17) to permit full opening of the window panel when desired. The three-bar hinge has a locking mechanism (30) which is adapted to retain the restrictor peg within the restrictor opening.
