HINGE APPARATUS
Aspects of the present invention relate to hinge apparatus (3-n) for supporting an aperture closure member (4). The hinge apparatus (3-1, 3-2) (3-n) is configurable in at least first and second configurations. The hinge apparatus (3-1, 3-2) (3-n) includes a first hinge bracket (10) (10) and a second hinge bracket (11) (11). A first hinge linkage member (15) is pivotally mounted to each of the first and second hinge brackets (10, 11) (10, 11). A second hinge linkage member (16) (16) is pivotally mounted to each of the first and second hinge brackets (10, 11) (10, 11). A latching mechanism (25) (25) is provided for selectively latching the hinge apparatus (3-1, 3-2) (3-n). The latching mechanism (25) (25) is operable to inhibit movement of the first and second hinge linkage members (15, 16) (15, 16) relative to each other to latch the hinge apparatus (3-1, 3-2) (3-n). The present invention also relates to a carrier assembly for carrying an aperture closure member (4); and a vehicle (1) having a carrier assembly.
