Abstract
A hinge for furniture comprises a fastening box designed to be received with a central portion thereof into a hole in a piece of furniture. The box comprises two axially rotatable pins designed to be fitted into the hole together with the central portion of the box. Each pin has at least one laterally projecting tab. Working levers enable the pins to be rotated to lead the tabs to project outwardly of the box so as to interfere with the wall of the receiving hole and prevent the box from being drawn out of the hole.
