NEI member Joe Russo was granted a utility for his Snap Hinge. Joe’s hinge mounts like a traditional butt hinge and offers a 270-degree rotation. The hinge is ideal for cases and cabinets with limited space.
As an avid guitar player, Joe developed the hinge to transform his guitar case into a stand, providing him with a convenient and stable way to display and access his guitar during shows. Transforming his case into a stand also offers extra protection by keeping the instrument secure and off the ground, reducing the risk of damage.
Congratulations, Joe, on this achievement!
