US Patent 11906170 Magnetic positioning hinge for horizontal door assembly

An integrated magnetic catch used to hold a horizontal hinged oven door open at a selected set partially open position. A pin is used to hold the two plates together and acts as a pivot point. Attached to a stationary plate is a bracket that houses a magnet. This bracket is formed having a preset angle that correlates with the degree that the door is to be opened. When the rotating hinge makes contact with the bracket, the magnetic force holds the door open at a selected angle.
