PINCH-RELIEF HINGED ASSEMBLIES AND CHILDREN'S PRODUCTS INCLUDING PINCH-RELIEF HINGED ASSEMBLIES.

摘要

Hinged assemblies, and children' s products including at least one hinged assembly, include a base member and a hinged member operatively and pivotally coupled to the base member to define a hinge. The hinge is configured to release if an obstruction is positioned between the hinged member and the base member while the hinged member is being closed and if a closing torque is greater than or equal to a release torque. The hinge also may be configured to not release when an opening torque is applied when the hinged member is in its open position even when the opening torque is greater than the release torque.
