Abstract:
A hinge includes a first hinge member including a first barrel, a second hinge member including a first end barrel opposite a second end barrel, a spring having a first axially extending end and a second axially extending end opposite the first axially extending end, a spring tensioner having a first depression for receiving the first axially extending end of the spring and a second depression for receiving a driver. A retainer is coupled to the spring tensioner and includes an opening that is penetrable by the driver when the driver is being received in the second depression. A method of adjusting the hinge includes compressing an end of the spring and twisting the same.

Claim (Index 1):
A hinge comprising:\n a first hinge member comprising a first barrel; a second hinge member comprising a first end barrel opposite a second end barrel, wherein the first barrel is coaxially aligned between the two end barrels, wherein the first hinge member can rotate relative to the second hinge member about an axis along said first barrel and first and second end barrels; a spring having a first axially extending end and a second axially extending end opposite the first axially extending end; a spring tensioner and having a first depression for receiving the first axially extending end of the spring, said spring tensioner comprising a second depression for receiving a driver, said spring tensioner being axially slideable along the axis; and a retainer coupled to the spring tensioner and comprising an opening that is penetrable by the driver when said driver is being received in the second depression, wherein the spring second axially extending end is rotationally retained relative to either one of the first end barrel, the second end barrel, or the first barrel, wherein the spring urges the spring tensioner against the retainer, and wherein when engaged with the spring tensioner, the retainer prevents the spring tensioner for rotating relative to the retainer and relative to other of the first end barrel, the second end barrel, or the first barrel.
