DEFINITION
Classification: 16/284
Resiliently biased rolling or sliding cam surface:
(under subclass 280) Hinge wherein an elastically deformable
element is arranged to cause a first surface associated with a hinged member* to slide or roll over a second cooperating surface, whereby the hinged member is caused to swing about the hinge axis* from either side of the equilibrium position due to the relative curvature of the surfaces.
SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:
303, for a hinge in which a hinged member* is caused to swing in only one direction by an axially biased cam surface.
