The invention relates to a hinge arrangement for a switchgear housing cabinet, having a first hinge half, which is fastened to a vertical side wall, delimiting a door opening, of a switchgear cabinet housing, and having a second hinge half, which is fastened to a door element, the hinge halves being connected to each other such that they can pivot relative to each other via a rotation axis, so that the door element closes the door opening when in a closed position and preferably completely exposes the door opening when in an open position, and the rotation axis being outside the outer periphery of both the door opening and the door element, wherein at least one of the hinge halves has a groove, via which the hinge half is fitted onto a protrusion on the outer periphery of the part of the switchgear cabinet housing and of the door element associated with the hinge half.
A hinge arrangement for a switchgear housing cabinet comprising, a first hinge half, which is fastened to a vertical side wall or to a vertical profile, delimiting a door opening, of a switchgear cabinet housing, and including a second hinge half, which is fastened to a door element, the hinge halves being connected to each other so as to be able to pivot relative to each other via a rotation axis, so that the door element closes the door opening when in a closed position and completely exposes the door opening when in an open position, and the rotation axis being outside an outer circumference of both the door opening and the door element, wherein the second hinge half includes a groove, via which the second hinge half is fitted onto a projection on the outer circumference of the door element, the projection being a 90° folded edge on the outer circumference of the door element, wherein the door element has an edged flat part which includes a door side that extends parallel to, and covers, the door opening when the door element is in the closed position, and which includes the circumferential 90° folded edge, and wherein the second hinge half is mounted with a first support surface directly abutting an interior surface of the door side and a second support surface on the 90° folded edge, with the first support surface directly abutting the interior side of the door serving to protect the mounting of the second hinge from forces directed to the door element.
