Wide-angle hinge

Wide-angle hinge with crossing hinge levers (2,2') that are connected at one end and in an articulated manner with hinge parts (1, 1') attachable to a body part (4) and a horizontal-swing part (5) of a piece of furniture and at the other end to the hinge part (1,1') by transversal swinging arms (3,3') at a distance from articulations of the hinge levers (2,2'), wherein the hinge levers (2,2') are connected to each other in an articulated manner, characterized in that

• the hinge levers (2,2') consist of U-shaped profile levers, of which the lateral sides (10,11) coupled to the hinge parts (1,1') and projecting webs (12)connecting them are arranged offset to each other such that one lies inside and the other outside, the transversal swinging arms (3,3') which each are in the form of a U-shaped profile are coupled with the same offset to the levers (2,2') and in an extended open position, hinge pins (6,6',8,9,9') coupling said levers (2,2') and arms (3,3') and hinge parts (1,1') lie approximately in an imaginary cylindrical shell (18), the axis of which lies on an opposite side of the hinge parts (1,1') from said levers (2,2') and arms (3,3').
