Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a fitting for so called turnable doors i.e. a door set having a door blade arranged for arbitrarily left or right hand side mounting.
  • the problem of the present invention basically, is to broaden the door turning concept.
  • the problem according to the invention i.a. resides in making this door also turnable around a vertical axis, meaning that an arbitrary side of the door blade may be turned in an arbitrary direction.
  • the door blades which are turnable in their own plane are well known for many years.
  • the idea of symmetry - as to placing or possibility of placing active elements, i.e. a lock, a door handle and hinge elements relative the centre line perpendicular to the long edge sides - such turning possibility basically is a good idea.
  • the turnability is not suited for door blades which do not have the said symmetric external design, for instance a door blade which has a glass therein placed unsymmetrically relative the centre line perpendicular to the long edge sides. Further on, the known turnability does not give the end user a possibility to determine which side of the door should be turned in a certain direction.
  • a fitting according to prior art is disclosed in the French publication No. FR-A-2 073 814.
  • Said fitting is adapted for insertion of a journalled insert element from one side only, and exhibits a flexible tongue element for locking the insert element in the door blade.
  • the tongue element is flexing relative an axis perpendicular to the direction of insertion of the insert element.
  • the shape and orientation of the tongue element as well as the fact that the fitting is open at one side only, means that the fitting cannot possibly function with turnable doors.
  • the present invention provides i.a. a fitting for mounting on to a turnable, i.e. an arbitrarily left hand side or right hand side mountable door blade and arranged for a journalled mounting of the door blade in a jamb mounted hinge.
  • the fitting is characterized by means for forming at least partially a passage from one door side to the other door side, and that a flexible resiliently returnable tongue element is integral with said means for forming a passage and flexing relative an axis parallel to the direction of insertion of a journalled insert element of a jamb mounted hinge insertable into the passage from either side of the door.
  • the outer contour of the fitting for instance the width and length, is substantially equal to the outer contour of a groove or recess arranged crosswise in the long edge side of the door blade and open at both door sides and arranged for fixing the position of the fitting in the door jamb.
  • a recess is formed in the fitting crosswise the width of the fitting and forms partially said passage, and the flexible tongue element is formed by through-going grooves generally at the centre of the recess, and a lock shoulder is formed on the tongue in the recess.
  • the fitting arrangement preferably also comprises a cover plate having a shape corresponding to the cross- section at each end of the recess, and said plate has means for attachment of the plate on complementary shaped attachment means on the fitting in order to fully cover the passage from any door side.
  • the cover plate may be arranged for covering also the rest of the fitting in therecess.
  • the side of the lock shoulder facing the passage preferably slopes towards the bottom of the tongue.
  • the door blade 10 in Figure 1 is symmetric in the meaning that the operative hinge and lock elements of the blade are placed or placeable symmetric relative the centre line 11 perpendicular to the long edge sides of the door blade.
  • the jamb 13 is either a left hand or a right hand mountable jamb (in Figure 1 both possibilities have been indicated) and is provided with hinges arranged symmetrically relative the centre line perpendicular to the long sides.
  • the structure of the door set makes the door blade turnable as indicated by the reference numerals 10, 10, 10 " 10 " ..., i.e. the turnability means that one and the same side of the door blade will always be turned in a certain predeter- mend direction.
  • FIG 2 the door blade 10 is shown separately and schematically and it may be seen that for instance the fittings 14 and 15 are placed at one and the same distance from the line 11. Further on, it is seen that the recesses 16, 17 for the door handle and the key operated lock, respectively, are identical and placed at one and the same distance from the line 11, meaning that such elements may be shifted when the door blade is turned around.
  • Figure 3 shows the long edge side 18 of the door blade and fittings 14, 15 of known type placed in recesses in the edge side 18. Said fittings are, as shown by the broken lines 19, accessable merely from one side 20 of the door blade 10.
  • the second long edge side 21 of the door blade is provided with a lock and bolt arrangement 22, the operative elements of which, a door handle and a key, are insertable through openings 23 and 24. Said openings are placed symmetrically relative the symmetry line 11, which extends centrally through the bevelled bolt 25. As shown by the double lines 26, the long edge sides 21 is bevelled or sloping for giving a smaller gap between the jamb and the bolt side of the door blade when the door is closed, but still allowing free passage of the inner corner edge of the door blade relative the jamb when the door blade is opened and closed.
  • Figure 6 shows the long-piece of a jamb of plastics having recesses 27, 28 for hinges
  • Figure 7 shows the long-piece of a wooden jamb provided with a striking plate 29.
  • FIG 8 shows a complete symmetric jamb which in this case is provided with three sets of hinges 30, 31, 32 in one long jamb piece and a striker plate 33 in the second long-piece.
  • FIG 9 the complete prior art hinge has been shown.
  • Said hinge comprises a fitting element 34, identical to the fittings 14, 15 in Figure 3, and an insert element 35 for jamb mounting in recesses of the type 27, 28.
  • the new fitting 41 for the long edge side of the door blade has been shown schematically in Figures 10 and 11.
  • the fitting is screwed into a recess 43 in the long edge side 42 of a door blade 44.
  • the recess 43 opens up at each side 45, 46 of the door blade and the outer contour thereof corresponds to the contour to the fitting 41.
  • the fitting in Figure 10 and 11 has a through-going recess 47 accessable from both sides 45, 46 of the door blade.
  • This access is such that an insert element 48 ( Figure 9) of a jambmounted hinge may be inserted from either side, such that the shoulder 49 on a flexible, resiliently returnable tongue 50 ( Figure 10) formed by through-going grooves 52 may be inserted in the opening 51 ( Figure 9) of the insert element.
  • Figure 12 there is a more detailed diagram of the fitting 41.
  • Figure 12 which shows the side of the fitting which is to face the bottom of the recess, relates to one embodiment where the recess 47 is defined by walls 53, 54 having cut outs 55 - 58 formed therein acting as means for fixing a cover plate 59 ( Figures 15, 16).
  • the plate 59 is of a height corresponding to the groove which will be formed between the long edge side and the fitting and thus conceals the groove completely when it is mounted in a respective pair of recesses 55, 58 by means of shoulders 60, 61 after the door blade 44 has been mounted in the jamb in the desired manner.
  • the lock shoulder 49 is bevelled in a direction towards the "hinge" of the tongue 50. This means that the flexing out distance of the tongue may be reduced when inserting or removing the element 48.
  • the said bevelling may be such that entering facilitating surfaces exist in the lock shoulder and/or the element 48 which allows an "automatic" insertion or remowal, i.e. there is no need for any tools.
  • som acetal plastics As a material for the mounting it may for instance be used som acetal plastics or a plastics material of a corresponding strength.
