Abstract

A hinge is configured for selectively retaining and removing at least one rotation stop without a supplementary tool. The hinge includes a locking device having at least one lever arranged to selectively rotate a retaining member for engagement and disengagement with the at least one rotation stop. The retaining member forms an abutment portion extending from a first portion and a second portion extending from the abutment portion. A non-abutment portion is located opposite the abutment portion along a same segment of the axis of the retaining member.
