Anti-ligature hinge
An anti-ligature hinge 100 has an assembled leaf portion 102 formed from a pair of leaves 130, 150 that are operatively coupled together for example using one or more pins through knuckle portions 136, 156. An anti-ligature cap 200 is operatively coupled to the leaf portion 102 has a body with one or more projections 250 extending therefrom. The projections 250 may comprise a leaf flange 260 extending from the hinge cap to be located between the first and second leafs 130, 150 and coupled to either the first or second leaf 130, 150. The projections 250 may further comprise a projecting pin 270 inserted into a knuckle aperture; alternatively the cap may include a blind hole (278) mounted over a hinge pin (276, fig.18). The hinge cover/cap includes an anti-ligature surface such as smooth tapered top surface 212, the width of the cap preferably same thickness as the combined width of the hinge leafs in the closed position providing a flush side surfaces. The corners of hinge leafs may be bevelled 182 on which locates the hinge cap surfaces 222.
