Definitions
- This invention relates to a hinge device particularly for associating flat sheet-like elements with pieces of furniture, such as for example, cabinets of the type intended to contain electronic apparatus, such as record players.
- Such pieces of furniture usually have a flat sheet-like lid, made of crystal glass, plain glass, coloured or transparent plastic material, which is hinged to the piece of furniture as to form a closure for the compartment accommodating the record player, while leaving it in view and when raised, allowing access to the electronic apparatus.
- a flat sheet-like lid made of crystal glass, plain glass, coloured or transparent plastic material, which is hinged to the piece of furniture as to form a closure for the compartment accommodating the record player, while leaving it in view and when raised, allowing access to the electronic apparatus.
- Some prior hinge devices used for associating such sheets with the piece of furniture include an elastically deformable element which consists of a spring, adapted to be loaded in the closed condition of the hinge.
- a further important object is to provide a hinge device which enables a sheet-like element to be associated therewith to be securely held against longitudinal and transverse movements.
- Another object is to provide a hinge device affording the ability to close and open a lid or sheet-like element, having a neutral balance position in the open condition thereof.
- Another important object is to provide a hinge device which can be easily installed, functions properly, and has a valuable aesthetic appearance.
- a not least object is to provide a hinge device which is of low cost and which can be manufactured on ordinary equipment.
- a hinge device which is characterized in that it comprises a first element having an internal cavity, defining a seat for a block including means for guiding a rod extending from said cavity, means for securing said first element to a piece of furniture, and shoulders, said hinge device further comprising a second element, journalled to said shoulders and having a first seat adapted for association with a flat sheet-like element and locking and guiding means, and a second seat whereto the end of said rod is journalled.
- the hinge 1 comprises a first element 2 consisting of a box-shaped structure 3 having an internal cavity 4 in the upper 5 and lower 6 walls of which there are formed axially aligned two holes 7 and 8, the lower hole 8 having a slightly larger diameter than the upper hole 7.
- the box-shaped structure 3 has a pair of lateral wings or protuberances 9 expediently having formed therein through holes 10 adapted for accommodating fixing means such as screws 12, for attaching the hinge device to the wall 11 of a piece of furniture, the structure 3 also having, at the upper surface 5, at least one pair of identical shoulders 13 projecting upwards.
- an adjustment member or block 14 composed of a wedge, advantageously formed from a plastic material and having.two sloping side surfaces 15 and 16 and a seat 17 of cylindrical shape, extending substantially along the longitudinal mid-axis of the adjustment member 14 itself.
- the adjustment member 14 also has, at the flat side surfaces 18, a through milling 19 extending through the longitudinal mid-axis of the same, and spanning a portion of the full length of the member 14 from its bottom end 20.
- the seat 17 is located, with the element 14 inserted into the cavity 4, in alignment with the holes 7 and 8, that seat being adapted for guiding the sliding movement of a cylindrical rod 21 having a longer length than the box-shaped structure 3, that rod having ends 22 and 23 projecting respectively downwardly and upwardly of the structure 3, the former end 22 having an enlarged portion defining a slightly larger diameter than the latter.
- a second element 25 having at its opposite end 26 a first seat 27, adapted for accommodating a portion of a flat sheet-like element'28 therein, which may be a lid or a door of an item of furniture.
- That seat 27 has formed internally thereon, a rest shelf, for supporting the sheet-like element and expediently having a plurality of knurled formations 29 formed along parallel axes to the longitudinal axis of the element 25 itself, in said shelf there being also formed close to the end 26 thereof, a through-going seat 30.
- a locking and guide means comprising an element 31 adapted for association therewith and having a substantially L-like shape with a first leg adapted to be positioned adjacent the face of the sheet-like element 28, and a second shorter leg positioned at the back edge thereof.
- the element 31 advantageously has its bottom surface conformed to correspond with the knurled formations 29 formed on the second element 25, the width of element 31 being slightly smaller than the width of the seat 27.
- an elastically deformable nib 33 adapted for locking engagement with a through-going seat 30 formed in the rest shelf of the seat 27.
- the second element 25 also has, in the proximity of the pin 24, a second seat 34 with which there is associated, through a pin 35 parallel to the pin 24, the end 23 of the cylindrical rod 21.
- the hinge is utilized as follows: since the rod 21 has a larger diameter at its end 22, on raising the plate 28 and, hence, the element 25 associated therewith, a balanced position will be gradually reached due to the compression of the end 22 onto the inner walls of the seat 17 formed in the device 14.
- the element or locking and guide means 31 is expediently rigidly associated with the sheet-like element 28 by means of an appropriate adhesive, which obviously, must be selected according to the material of which the elements 28, 31 are made.
- any replacement of the plate 28 is anyhow made easy, since the same can be drawn out of the first seat 27 by applying a slight pressure to the nib 33 through the open end of the through-going seat 30 to disengage the nib 33 therefrom.
- the invention achieves all the objects set forth, the same further allowing the sheet to be subjected to no stress once placed to close the surface of the piece of furniture containing the electronic apparatus.
- the element 31 may be alternatively associated with the sheet-like element or plate 28 by selectively removable fixing means such as screws or bolts, or even by means of rivets.
