Portuguese term or phrase: dobradiços de giro

It's late and I'm feeling a bit slaughtered. These are the specific types of hinges used on a swing door, enabling people to move loads (pigs in this case) around in confined spaces from either direction without the need to open or perform any type of manoeuvre.

What is the technical name for these types of hinges?

"os portões serão metálicos (recomendados canos galvanizados, sem pintura), com largura igual a do corredor, possuindo >> dobradiças de giro
