I am trying to find out what type of hinge or mechanism is used in fold down car TV’s. I need to buy one for a project I’m working on but dont know the name. See picture above.

One Answer

These are not usually simple hinges - they are often designed with cams etc to give a specific movement - so are usually specific to the item.

Think of kitchen cupboard hinges - the simple ones are easy to replace, but some have extending movements so doors can move out to clear other doors...

You may find a hinge that does the movement you require and then you will need to re-manufacture it to cope with the load you will be applying...
