Page 1359 | 3.3 Hinging, Latching, Locking of Doors and Covers GN 7243 Multiple-Joint Hinge continued The multiple-joint hinges can be installed to the housing with the slots on the fastening flanges either parallel or perpen- dicular to the hinge axis. This results in the two pivot characteristics depicted. Installation position - pivot characteristics Examples of use The multiple-joint hinges can be adjusted in three planes during installation. For example, this allows adjustment for tolerances or establishing of required compressive forces for seals. Two planes can be adjusted via parallel or per- pendicular slots in the fastening flanges. In the third plane, position corrections can be made using the stainless steel spacer plates GN 7247.2. Stainless steel plates with tap- ped holes GN 7247.4 as well as stainless steel plates with threaded studs GN 7247.6 are also available for fastening the hinges. The latter can be welded on or inserted through the wall from the outside and fastened in place. The holes d 2 receive tensioning or positioning pins, making it easy to position the hinge. This also prevents unintended turning or slipping under load. The pins cannot be removed for subse- quent adjustment. Adjustment and fastening options
