Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen verstellbaren, mindestens einen Gelenkhebel tragenden, aus Blech gebogenen profilierten Scharnierarm, der durch eine Befestigungsschraube mit Schraubenkopf und eine Stellschraube mit einer an einer Tragwand oder dergleichen befestigbaren Grundplatte verbunden ist, wobei die Befestigungsschraube durch ein in der oberen Wand des Scharnierarms befindliches Langloch greift, in eine Bohrung der Grundplatte eingeschraubt ist und sich mit ihrem Schraubenkopf über eine Unterlegscheibe auf den Rändern des Langloches abstützt, und wobei die Stellschraube in eine Gewindebohrung in der oberen Wand des Scharnierarms zwischen der Befestigungsschraube und dem mindestens einen Gelenkhebel tragenden Ende des Scharnierarms eingeschraubt ist und sich zur Verspannung des Scharnierarms, der sich in seinem hinteren Bereich mit einem abgewinkelten Teil auf die Grundplatte abstützt, ebenfalls auf die Grundplatte abstützt.The invention relates to an adjustable, at least one articulated lever carrying, bent sheet metal profiled hinge arm, which is connected by a fastening screw with a screw head and an adjusting screw to a base plate which can be fastened to a supporting wall or the like, the fastening screw being located in the upper wall of the hinge arm Elongated hole engages, is screwed into a hole in the base plate and is supported with its screw head via a washer on the edges of the elongated hole, and the set screw in a threaded hole in the upper wall of the hinge arm between the fastening screw and the at least one articulated lever-carrying end of the hinge arm is screwed in and is also supported on the base plate for bracing the hinge arm, which is supported in the rear region with an angled part on the base plate.

Derartige Scharnierarme, mit denen sich durch deren Längsverschiebung die Fuge zwischen der angelenkten Tür und dem Korpusteil und durch deren winkelige Verstellung die Tür seitlich einstellen läßt, sind in unterschiedlichen Ausführungsformen bekannt. Allen derartigen Scharnierarmen ist jedoch gemeinsam, daß sich deren Winkelverstellung zur Seiteneinstellung der Tür bei einer Vergrößerung des Winkels zwischen Scharnierarm und Tragwand nur nach vorheriger entsprechender Lockerung der Befestigungsschraube erreichen läßt, während bei einer Verkleinerung des Winkels zunächst die Stellschraube herauszuschrauben und anschließend die Befestigungsschraube anzuziehen ist. Der Sitz der Befestigungsschraube ist somit von der axialen Einschraubstellung der Stellschraube abhängig, so daß eine Winkelverstellung durch die Stellschraube und die Befestigung durch die Befestigungsschraube einander beeinflussen. Eine Winkeländerung des Scharnierarms durch Drehen der Stellschraube ist somit nicht ohne eine entsprechende Nachstellung der Befestigungsschraube möglich. Da die einander entsprechende Abstimmung der Stellungen beider Schrauben eine gewisse Sorgfalt und Geschicklichkeit des Monteurs erfordert, kommt es häufig vor, daß eine der Schrauben überspannt wird, beispielsweise durch Einschrauben der Stellschraube zur Winkelveränderung ohne entsprechende Lockerung der Befestigungsschraube, so daß es zu wesentlichen Verformungen der Ränder des Langlochs des Scharnierarms kommt, auf die sich der Schraubenkopf der Befestigungsschraube abstützt.Hinge arms of this type, with which the joint between the articulated door and the carcass part and the angular adjustment of the door can be adjusted laterally by their longitudinal displacement, are known in different embodiments. All such hinge arms, however, have in common that their angle adjustment for side adjustment of the door can only be achieved with an increase in the angle between the hinge arm and the support wall after a corresponding loosening of the fastening screw, while when the angle is reduced, first unscrew the set screw and then tighten the fastening screw . The seat of the fastening screw is thus dependent on the axial screwing-in position of the adjusting screw, so that an angular adjustment by the adjusting screw and the fastening by the fastening screw influence one another. An angle change of the hinge arm by turning the adjusting screw is therefore not possible without a corresponding adjustment of the fastening screw. Since the corresponding coordination of the positions of the two screws requires a certain care and skill of the fitter, it often happens that one of the screws is spanned, for example by screwing in the adjusting screw to change the angle without a corresponding loosening of the fastening screw, so that there are significant deformations of the Edges of the elongated hole of the hinge arm comes on which the screw head of the fastening screw is supported.

Um den Abstützbereich des Kopfes der Befestigungsschraube auf den Rändern des Langloches zu vergrößern, ist es bekannt, metallische Unterlegscheiben vorzusehen. Diese wirken zwar einer unerwünschten Verformung der Ränder des Langloches entgegen, erfordern aber noch immer ein aufeinander abgestimmtes Ein- bzw. Herausschrauben der Befestigungs- und Stellschrauben zur Winkelverstellung, wobei sich eine unerwünschte Verformung des Scharnierarms durch einen größeren Einschraubwiderstand bemerkbar macht.In order to enlarge the support area of the head of the fastening screw on the edges of the elongated hole, it is known to provide metallic washers. Although these counteract an undesired deformation of the edges of the elongated hole, they still require a coordinated screwing in or unscrewing of the fastening and adjusting screws for angular adjustment, an undesirable deformation of the hinge arm being noticeable by a larger screwing resistance.

Bei einem aus der DE-U-69 08 022 bekannten Scharnierarm der eingangs angegebenen Art ist eine metallische Unterlegscheibe vorgesehen, die auf ihrer Oberseite eine kugelkalottenförmige Pfanne aufweist, in der sich der Schraubenkopf der Befestigungsschraube mit seiner balligen Unterseite abstützt, oder die eine ballig gewölbte Unterseite aufweist, die in einer entsprechend schalenförmig gewölbten Nut des Scharnierarms gehalten ist. Bei diesem bekannten Scharnierarm ist die von der Befestigungs- und Stellschraube abhängige Winkelverstellung nicht angesprochen, sondern dieser soll lediglich eine stufenlose Längsverstellung des Scharnierarms ohne unerwünschte Verformungen der Langlochränder auch dann ermöglichen, wenn aufgrund von Fertigungstoleranzen eine winkelige Verstellung des Scharnierarms relativ zur Grundplatte vorliegt.In a hinge arm of the type specified at the outset known from DE-U-69 08 022, a metallic washer is provided which has a spherical cup-shaped socket on its upper side, in which the screw head of the fastening screw is supported with its convex underside, or which has a convex arch Has underside, which is held in a corresponding cup-shaped curved groove of the hinge arm. In this known hinge arm, the angle adjustment dependent on the fastening and adjusting screw is not addressed, but is only intended to enable a continuous longitudinal adjustment of the hinge arm without undesirable deformations of the elongated hole edges even if, due to manufacturing tolerances, there is an angular adjustment of the hinge arm relative to the base plate.

Eine weitgehend nur durch Betätigung der Stellschraube erreichbare Winkelverstellung des Scharnierarms zur Seiteneinstellung der Tür ist durch erhöhten Konstruktions- und Fertigungsaufwand möglich. So ist es bekannt, die Befestigungsschraube im hinteren Bereich des Scharnierarms in die Befestigungsplatte einzuschrauben und die im vorderen Bereich der Grundplatte vorgesehene Stellschraube mit einer Ringnut in ihrem unteren Bereich zu versehen, die zwischen entsprechenden Gleitstegen in einer Tförmigen Nut der Grundplatte geführt ist. Diese Ausgestaltung führt zwar zu geringeren, in Kauf zu nehmenden Verformungen der Langlochränder durch die Befestigungsschraube, zwischen der Ringnut der Stellschraube und den Führungsstegen der Führungsnut der Grundplatte können jedoch Spiele vorhanden sein, die zu einem lästigen Wackeln führen.A largely adjustable angular adjustment of the hinge arm for side adjustment of the door, which can only be achieved by actuating the adjusting screw, is possible due to increased design and production costs. It is known to screw the fastening screw in the rear region of the hinge arm into the fastening plate and to provide the adjusting screw provided in the front region of the base plate with an annular groove in its lower region, which is guided between corresponding sliding webs in a T-shaped groove in the base plate. Although this configuration leads to smaller, to be accepted deformations of the oblong hole edges by the fastening screw, there may be games between the annular groove of the adjusting screw and the guide webs of the guide groove of the base plate, which lead to annoying wobbling.

Eine völlig unabhängige Längs- und Winkelverstellung des Scharnierarms, ohne durch eventuelle Spiele ein unerwünschtes Wackeln in Kauf nehmen zu müssen, ist bei dem aus der DE-U-78 10 923 bekannten Scharnierarm durch einen erhöhten Fertigungsaufwand verwirklicht.A completely independent longitudinal and angular adjustment of the hinge arm, without having to put up with an undesirable wobble due to possible games, is achieved in the hinge arm known from DE-U-78 10 923 by an increased production outlay.

Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen Scharnierarm der eingangs angegebenen Art zu schaffen, der sich bei einfachem Aufbau nur durch Betätigung der Stellschraube in seinem Winkel zur Tragwand in von der Befestigungsschraube unabhängiger Weise verstellen läßt.Object of the invention to provide a hinge arm of the type mentioned, which can be adjusted in a simple structure only by actuating the adjusting screw in its angle to the supporting wall in a manner independent of the fastening screw.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, daß die Unterlegscheibe aus einem elastischen und/oder plastischen Material besteht, das bei Festlegung des Scharnierarms dessen Winkelverstellung durch die Stellschraube ohne wesentliche Verformung der Langlochränder zuläßt. Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Scharnierarm ist die Elastizität und/oder Plastizität des Materials der Unterlegscheibe so gewählt, daß die Befestigungsschraube den in seiner Grundstellung befindlichen, also nicht in seinem Winkel verstellten Scharnierarm festlegt. Erfolgt nun eine Winkeiverstellung durch Einschrauben der Stellschraube, verformt sich die Unterlegscheibe elastisch und/ oder plastisch, ohne daß unzulässig hohe Verformungskräfte auf den Scharnierarm einwirken. Der erfindungsgemäße Scharnierarm läßt sich also einfach durch Längsverstellung in seiner Fuge und anschließend von unabhängig von der Einschraubtiefe der Befestigungsschraube durch Betätigung der Stellschraube zur Seiteneinstellung der Tür verstellen.According to the invention, this object is achieved in that the washer consists of an elastic and / or plastic material which, when the hinge arm is fixed, permits its angular adjustment by the set screw without substantial deformation of the elongated hole edges. In the hinge arm according to the invention Elasticity and / or plasticity of the material of the washer is chosen so that the fastening screw fixes the hinge arm which is in its basic position, that is to say not adjusted in its angle. If the angle is now adjusted by screwing in the adjusting screw, the washer deforms elastically and / or plastically without impermissibly high deformation forces acting on the hinge arm. The hinge arm according to the invention can thus be adjusted simply by longitudinal adjustment in its joint and then independently of the screw-in depth of the fastening screw by actuating the adjusting screw for lateral adjustment of the door.

Die Unterlegscheibe besteht zweckmäßigerweise aus einem Kunststoff der gewünschten Elastizität und/oder Plastizität.The washer expediently consists of a plastic of the desired elasticity and / or plasticity.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß die Unterseite des Schraubenkopfes mit einer ringschalenförmigen Ausnehmung versehen ist, deren Rand die Unterlegscheibe übergreift. Diese schalenförmige Ausgestaltung der Unterseite des Schraubenkopfes legt die Unterlegscheibe fest und fixiert diese insbesondere bei einer Verformung infolge einer Winkelverstellung des Scharnierarms. Die Unterlegscheibe ist zweckmäßigerweise ausreichend dick ausgebildet, um ausreichend große Seitenverstellungen zuzulassen. Diese dickere Ausgestaltung der Unterlegscheiben kann insbesondere dann zugelassen werden, wenn diese durch die übergreifenden Ränder der schalenförmigen Ausnehmungen der Schraubenköpfe gestützt werden.In a further embodiment of the invention it is provided that the underside of the screw head is provided with an annular shell-shaped recess, the edge of which overlaps the washer. This cup-shaped design of the underside of the screw head fixes the washer and fixes it in particular in the event of deformation as a result of an angular adjustment of the hinge arm. The washer is expediently designed to be sufficiently thick to permit sufficiently large lateral adjustments. This thicker configuration of the washers can be permitted in particular if they are supported by the overlapping edges of the cup-shaped recesses of the screw heads.

Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung ist vorgesehen, daß die Grundplatte symmetrisch zu ihrer Längs- und Quermittellinie ausgebildet und die Befestigungsschraube im Bereich des Schnittpunkts dieser Linien in die Grundplatte eingeschraubt ist. Da bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Scharnierarm infolge einer Winkelverstellung durch Betätigung der Stellschraube ohne entsprechende Nachstellung der Befestigungsschraube vorgenommene Winkeländerungen nicht durch Verformung der Langlochränder, sondern durch Verformung der Unterlegscheibe ausgeglichen werden, ist eine symmetrische Ausgestaltung der Befestigungsplatte möglich, die zu einer vereinfachten Lagerhaltung führt, weil die gleichen Befestigungsplatten zur Links- und Rechtsmontage der Türen verwendet werden können.According to a further advantageous embodiment it is provided that the base plate is formed symmetrically to its longitudinal and transverse center line and the fastening screw is screwed into the base plate in the region of the intersection of these lines. Since in the hinge arm according to the invention as a result of an angle adjustment by actuating the adjusting screw without corresponding adjustment of the fastening screw, angular changes are not compensated for by deformation of the elongated hole edges, but rather by deformation of the washer, a symmetrical configuration of the fastening plate is possible, which leads to simplified storage because the same mounting plates can be used for left and right mounting of the doors.

Der Scharnierarm 1 ist aus einem Blechzuschnitt gebogen und weist eine im Querschnitt im wesentlichen U-förmige Form auf. Er ist durch die Befestigungsschraube 2 und die Stellschraube 3 mit der Grundplatte oder Befestigungsplatte 4 verbunden. Der Scharnierarm 1 weist eine hintere Abwinkelung 5 auf, über deren untere Kante er sich auf der Befestigungsplatte 4 abstützt. Die Befestigungsplatte 4 ist symmetrisch zu ihrer Längsmittel- und Quermittellinie ausgebildet und durch nicht dargestellte Befestigungsschrauben mit der strichpunktiert angedeuteten Tragwand 6 verbunden. In dem vorderen Bereich seiner seitlichen Schenkel weist der Scharnierarm 1 zwei Bohrungen zur Aufnahme der Gelenkbolzen für die Gelenkhebel auf.The hinge arm 1 is bent from a sheet metal blank and has an essentially U-shaped shape in cross section. It is connected to the base plate or mounting plate 4 by the fastening screw 2 and the set screw 3. The hinge arm 1 has a rear bend 5, over the lower edge of which it is supported on the fastening plate 4. The fastening plate 4 is formed symmetrically to its longitudinal center and transverse center lines and is connected to the support wall 6, indicated by dash-dotted lines, by fastening screws, not shown. In the front area of its lateral legs, the hinge arm 1 has two bores for receiving the hinge pins for the hinge lever.

Der Scharnierarm ist in seinem oberen Stegteil 7 mit einem Langloch 8 mit hinterer schlüssellochartiger Verbreiterung 9 und mit einer Gewindebohrung mit gebördeltem Rand 10 versehen, in die die Stellschraube 3 eingeschraubt ist. Durch das Langloch 8 greift der mit einem Gewinde versehene Schaft 11 der Stellschraube 2, die in eine Bohrung eingeschraubt ist, die in dem mittleren Sockel 12 der Befestigungsplatte 4 vorgesehen ist. Der Schraubenkopf 13 stützt sich über die Unterlegscheibe 14 aus elastischem Material auf die Ränder des Langlochs 8 ab. Durch die schlüssellochartige Verbreiterung 9 ist eine Befestigungsschraube der Grundplatte 4 zugänglich.The hinge arm is provided in its upper web part 7 with an elongated hole 8 with a rear keyhole-like widening 9 and with a threaded hole with a flanged edge 10 into which the set screw 3 is screwed. The threaded shaft 11 of the set screw 2, which is screwed into a bore which is provided in the central base 12 of the fastening plate 4, extends through the elongated hole 8. The screw head 13 is supported by the washer 14 made of elastic material on the edges of the elongated hole 8. Through the keyhole-like widening 9, a fastening screw of the base plate 4 is accessible.

Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 2 ist der Schraubenkopf 13 auf seiner unterseite mit einer ringschalenförmigen Ausnehmung 16 versehen, wobei der untere Bereich der äußeren Wandungen dieser Ausnehmung etwa zylinderringförmig gestaltet ist. Der Schraubenkopf 13 übergreift mit seinen äußeren Rändern 17 den oberen Teil der Unterlegscheibe 14, die mit einem unteren, etwa hutförmigen Rand 18 versehen ist.In the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 2, the screw head 13 is provided on its underside with an annular shell-shaped recess 16, the lower region of the outer walls of this recess being approximately cylindrical in shape. With its outer edges 17, the screw head 13 overlaps the upper part of the washer 14, which is provided with a lower, approximately hat-shaped edge 18.

Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 4 ist der Schraubenkopf 13 mit einer ringschalenförmigen Ausnehmung 19 versehen, die durch entsprechende Abschrägung der inneren Seiten der Ränder 20 eine etwa hohlkegelige Form aufweist. Der Schraubenkopf 13 übergreift mit seinen Ränder 20 den oberen Bereich des Dichtungsringes oder der Unterlegscheibe 14', die einen etwa quadratischen Querschnitt aufweist.In the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 4, the screw head 13 is provided with an annular shell-shaped recess 19 which has an approximately hollow-conical shape due to the corresponding beveling of the inner sides of the edges 20. The edges of the screw head 13 overlap the upper region of the sealing ring or the washer 14 ', which has an approximately square cross section.

Zur Montage des Scharnierarms ist die Stellschraube 3 so weit herausgeschraubt, daß die Unterkanten der Schenkel des Scharnierarms 1 etwa parallel zur Oberfläche der Tragwand 6 verlaufen. Nach entsprechender Lockerung der Befestigungsschraube 2 läßt sich der Scharnierarm 1 in seiner Längsrichtung zur Einstellung der Fuge verschieben und festziehen. Anschließend kann zur Seiteneinstellung die Stellschraube 3 eingeschraubt werden. Die etwa größte Winkelverstellung des Scharnierarms 1 ist in Fig. 1 in strichpunktierten Linien dargestellt und aus Fig. 6 ersichtlich. Wie Fig. 6 zeigt, ist bei der dargestellten Winkelverstellung des Scharnierarms 1 durch entsprechende Quetschung die Unterlegscheibe 14 mit hutförmigem Rand 18 elastisch verformt.To assemble the hinge arm, the set screw 3 is screwed out so far that the lower edges of the legs of the hinge arm 1 run approximately parallel to the surface of the support wall 6. After appropriate loosening of the fastening screw 2, the hinge arm 1 can be moved and tightened in its longitudinal direction to adjust the joint. The set screw 3 can then be screwed in for side adjustment. The approximately largest angular adjustment of the hinge arm 1 is shown in dash-dotted lines in FIG. 1 and can be seen in FIG. 6.
