Gudgeons & pintles can also be called hinges. A gudgeon is a socket-like, cylindrical (i.e. female) fitting attached to one component to enable a pivoting or hinging connection to a second component. The second component carries a pintle fitting, the male counterpart to the gudgeon, enabling an interpivoting connection that can be easily separated.
Different styles are used in various parts of a ship such as a gunport (gunports & lifting pintles), rudder assemblies (rudder hinges), even portholes that open and close could be said to have a gudgeon and pintle assembly.
