REMOVABLY INTERLOCKING BARREL HINGE
Disclosed is a removably interlocking barrel hinge assembly that allows for relative rotation of parts as well as disconnection of the parts. Connectors of the hinge assembly include tabs and recesses that are configured to align and rotate relative to one another. Overlapping of tabs prevents separation in the axial direction, while still allowing for rotation. When disconnection of the parts is desired, the tabs and recesses of the connectors can be aligned, and then pulled apart. The hinge assembly provides in one instance 180 degrees of relative rotation. It may be implemented in a number of devices, including knives and surgical instruments, for example.
