EP0259618B1 - Door and window hinge adjustable during and after its affixation - Google Patents

Description

The invention relates to an adjusting device for the height and the sides on a door and window hinge adjustable during and after assembly, with a frame part and a wing part for fastening a wing to a frame, according to the preamble of independent claims 1 and 10.

Various adjustable straps are already known, but they all have considerable disadvantages and, above all, are only limited, e.g. B. only for individual types of doors or windows. These known tapes often consist of many individual parts because of their adjustability, are complex and therefore expensive to build and complicated to adjust. In most cases, different hinges are then also required for left- and right-opening wings. In order to be able to mount such adjustment straps, it is also necessary to make a recess in the frame or sash, which in turn is associated with the risk of breakouts on the visible surface. The previously known tapes are therefore not only expensive to manufacture, but they often also require a great deal of effort during assembly.

From CH 544 872 (Mettler) an adjustable hinge for doors, windows and furniture according to the preamble of claim 10 is known, with an axially displaceable height adjustment pin, which is loosely mounted in a bore of a hinge pin. The height adjustment pin is moved in the axial direction by a conical or eccentric actuator in the hinge pin. This enables the height to be adjusted.

From EP 98257 (Gerard & Didier) a hinge according to the preamble of claim 1 is known for door leaves, windows or furniture. A rotating eccentric pin allows a hinge attachment to be positioned in the longitudinal direction by rotating it in a hole in the tab. By using both mounting brackets of a corresponding hinge, an adjustment possibility with regard to the height and the side of a door or window sash can be achieved. This type of adjustment moves the entire fastening band of the hinge on the frame or the wing of the door or window, which leads to damage to the frame and the wing and requires appropriate rework.

The object of the invention is now to find a universal door and window hinge with an adjusting device for the side and the height, which overcomes the disadvantages of the known constructions and in particular for hinged left or right, for materials and profiles made of wood, metal (Steel, aluminum etc.) or plastic, both in a hollow and in a backfilled version. The production should be simple, efficient and inexpensive and the assembly should require as little machining of the frame and sash as possible. Subsequent readjustment should also be possible by the non-specialist using the simplest tools. Therefore, the parts of the adjustment device should also be secured against unintentional twisting, moving or falling out.

This object is achieved by the invention specified in independent patent claims 1 and 10.

Further features of the invention are the subject of the remaining claims.

A. To the side adjustment device:

The spatial representation of FIG. 2A and the partially sectioned FIG. 2 show a door and window hinge that can be adjusted in three spatial directions X, Y, Z with the flap part of the side adjustment device 40X according to the invention. The lower band part is as a frame part 2, which is fastened in a frame, and the upper band part is designed as a wing part 4, which is fastened to a wing. The side adjustment device 40Y for the frame part has a cylindrical adjustment body 5ʹ, which is rotatably held in a band body 32ʹ, by a pin 10ʹ and an annular groove 6ʹ pierced into the cylindrical adjustment body. The pin 10ʹ is firmly seated in the band body 32 verhindert and thus prevents a displacement of the same relative to the band body 32ʹ in the direction + Y and -Y when rotating the cylindrical adjusting body 5ʹ. By turning the screw end 8ʹ of the cylindrical adjustment body 5ʹ on the frame part, in which a turning attachment, for example hexagon socket, is inserted, a displacement in the direction Y can be achieved via an adjustment thread 7ʹ. The cylindrical adjustment body 5ʹ runs here in a threaded counterpart 33, which is fixed in the frame. A guide element 11ʹ arranged on the hinge body 32, with thread or smooth, which is held in the frame in a guide opening part, for example with a clamping ring 15, prevents the side adjustment device from rotating about the longitudinal axis of the cylindrical adjusting body 5ʹ, and simultaneously blocks the lower hinge part 32teil in the Y axis. Furthermore, a further adjusting device for adjusting the Z direction is provided in the upper band part. This will also be discussed later.

Figures 1.1A, 1B and 1C each show an embodiment of the belt lower part for a wooden, for a steel and a hollow profile frame, with all three belt lower parts for a steel and a hollow profile frame, all of them for the fastening of the belt lower part in the frame three lower band parts can be used for the same band upper part according to the invention. Depending on the frame or sash material, the threaded counterpart 9 can also preferably be designed as a threaded sleeve 33, which can take various forms: for example, in Figure 1A it is used as a simple threaded sleeve in a full frame, while in Figure 1C it is used as a compression sleeve or blind rivet sleeve is inserted in a hollow profile and in Figure 1B or 5A as a sleeve for welding to a steel frame.

The side adjustment device 40X according to the invention (FIG. 2) for the X direction is designed as a wing part 4, and a second side adjustment device 40Y for the Y direction is designed as a frame part 2. A third known adjustment device 40Z for the height in the Z direction is arranged in the upper band part. It is also possible to design the adjustment device according to the invention on the frame part, but as a rule, lower band parts as shown in FIGS. 1, 1B and 1C are used.

FIGS. 3A, 3B, 3C show the adjustment device according to the invention. In the embodiment shown, this consists of a tab 21 welded to the band body 32ʺ, which has an elongated hole 22 for the passage of an eccentric bolt 26. This eccentric bolt 26 is rotatably fastened in a cover plate 23, in which a recess 28 is also formed, in order to insert the tab 21 therein and slidably receive it. The cover plate 23 is in turn connected to a base plate 25 (FIG. 3B) which has an axle hole 27 for the eccentric bolt 26. The connection between the base plate 25 and the cover plate 23 can be a screw connection 24. The eccentric pin 26 has at one end an axle piece 261 with a hexagon hole 8, for example, and at the other end an axle piece 262 without one. A disc-shaped eccentric piece 263 is located between the two axle pieces. The two axle pieces 261, 262 are rotatably supported in the cover plate 26 and base plate 25, the eccentric piece 263 is arranged in the elongated hole 22 of the flap 21.

This side adjustment device works as follows:

The elongated hole 22 has a width according to the diameter of the eccentric and a length which also extends by twice the stroke of the eccentric. An eccentric, which is rolled in this elongated hole (rotary arrow in FIG. 3A), causes a deflection transverse to the elongated hole, namely one stroke to one side and one stroke to the other side from the starting position, and comes again into the Starting position (middle position) back. According to the rotating arrow, the tab would be pushed in the direction of the frame and the wing would be moved away from it. In the arrangement shown, the tab 21 fixed to the frame is thus moved relative to the cover plate 23 attached to the wing. The tab 21 is connected to the frame and the cover plate 23 together with the base plate 25 with the frame, so that the desired displacement between the frame and the wing can be effective.

As FIG. 3C shows, for example, the door or window sash 3 is clamped between the base plate 25 and the cover plate 23 and fastened, for example, with screws 24. For this purpose, the wing has the necessary number of through holes for the screws 24 and for the axle part 262 of the eccentric 26. For adjustment in the X direction, i.e. for adjustment between the sash and frame with the sash attached, the tab 21 is either left or right in a left / right stroke when the screw connection 24 is loosened by turning the eccentric piece 263 (with the aid of an Allen key in the hexagon hole 8) Recess 28 pushed into or out of the cover plate 23 until the desired position is reached. The screw connection 24 is then tightened again and the tab 21 is thus firmly clamped between the cover plate 23 and the wing 3.

So that the eccentric bolt 26 inserted into the cover plate 23 cannot fall out when the fittings are dismantled, i.e. during storage and before assembly, it is preferably crimped in the axle hole 29 in the cover plate 23, so that it is still rotatable but no longer axially displaceable .

The tape must also have a simple fixing or locking option. This means that if the hinge is installed and adjusted with the wing attached, this setting must be fixed in such a way that it can no longer unintentionally loosen or adjust. In addition, the fixation should, if desired, as often as desired released and the wing can be readjusted. This fixation is realized here in a simple manner by a releasable clamp connection.

This also applies to the cylindrical adjusting body 5 of the lower band part, which can be set arbitrarily with a simple tool by overcoming the static friction, but cannot inadvertently rotate out of its position, e.g. due to vibrations or the swinging movements of the wing.

A very decisive advantage of the hinge according to the invention is that its side adjustment devices 40X, 40Y are of symmetrical design and can therefore be used equally for left and right hinged sashes, so that the same embodiment can be used for both applications. This applies to the embodiment according to Fig. 2A, 2A, but not to the embodiment according to Fig. 3A, 3B, 3C.

The same also applies to the height adjustment device 40Z shown here of the embodiment shown in FIGS. 2 and 2A. The height adjustment device 40Z consists of a cylindrical body 5ʺ designed as a grub screw with a height thread 19 and a preferably hardened ball 20 arranged in the frame part 2, the grub screw resting rotatably on the ball with its one flat end. The height thread 19 is attached here in the middle of the band body, so that it is symmetrical with respect to the cutting plane 42. The flap 21 together with the adjustment device 40X attached to it can also be used upside down in the cover plate and thus be used equally for left and right-opening wings.

B. To the height adjustment device:

The spatially separated device of FIG. 4 shows the adjustment mechanism in its basic form as it is arranged in the hinge body of a door and window hinge according to the invention. It consists of an eccentric offset 50, which is incorporated into a band guide part 11, and a height guide pin 55 which cooperates with the latter. A locking groove 6, which is also arranged in the band body 11, prevents the entire band guide part 11 from being displaced out of the band body along the longitudinal axis without an inserted locking pin 10 but to hinder the desired rotatability (arrow) around the longitudinal axis. A rotation extension 8 for a corresponding tool, for example a hexagon wrench, enables the eccentric shaft 52 to be rotated and thus a gradual displacement by the stroke length h of the height guide pin 55 in the direction of the arrow shown. The indentation 51 is dimensioned such that on the one hand sufficient stability is ensured and on the other hand the achievable stroke h encloses the desired area. The height guide pin 55 consists of a, here cylindrical, pin body 56 with a preferably hardened attachment part 57 of a slightly smaller diameter. The load bearing part 58 is shaped so that the pivoting rotation of the wing part can be carried out easily; For example, a spherical shape is advantageous, whereby a ball can also be used as the load bearing part.

Figure 5 now shows the height adjustment device in a belt lower part, which is provided in the embodiment shown for use on iron frames. The band body 32ʹ for the height adjustment device, as shown in Figure 4, has a continuous transverse bore and a longitudinal bore opening into this for receiving the band guide part 11 with the eccentric part 50 and the height guide pin 55. The height guide pin 55 is secured by a flange 59 on the upper fishing part of the band body 32ʹ against falling out (for example, before assembly). The reduction in diameter is compensated for by the shoulder part 57, which has a diameter which is slightly longer than the stroke length h, in relation to the pin body 56.

Another (additional) transverse bore is provided for a threaded bolt 7ʹ which can be rotated about its longitudinal axis and which is also secured against longitudinal displacement in the band body 32ʹ, for example with a snap ring or a transverse pin 10. With this threaded bolt 7ʹ a side adjustment between the lower part of the hinge and the frame is possible with a corresponding design.

The lower part of the hinge, as shown, is screwed with the screw 7ʹ into a welding band 60, which in turn is welded onto the door frame 1 from the inside. When screwing in, the step 11 is inserted at the same time. Once screwed in, the pin 11 and the screw 7ʹ are fixed by means of a rotation inhibitor 61. For this purpose, plastic pins with a length greater than the diameter of the pin 11, a coating or an inhibiting counterpart 60 can be used, for example. This prevents the bottom part of the hinge from being readjusted after the adjustment work in the frame.

Figure 6 shows the lower band of Figure 5 cut along III-III. The eccentric effect can be seen here directly. By turning the rotation 8ʺ by rolling the eccentric part 52 of the height guide pin 55 is pushed upwards, this together with the top band and the wing attached to it.

FIG. 7 shows an embodiment in which a lower band part for wooden frames and an upper band part for wooden wings are provided. In the same way as in the lower band part shown in FIG. 5, a continuous transverse bore and a longitudinal bore opening into the band body 32ʹ for receiving the band guide part 11ʹ with the eccentric part 50 and the height guide pin 55 can be seen. The height guide pin 55 is also secured against falling out by a crimp 59, for this purpose the shoulder part 57, which is taken up in diameter with respect to the pin body 56, has a length which is somewhat longer than the stroke length h is. Another cross hole is provided for a rotatable threaded bolt 7ʹ, which is also secured against displacement in the band body 32ʹ with, for example, a cross pin 10.

The upper band part is placed on the lower band part and can be raised and lowered as desired with the (built-in) height adjustment device according to FIG. 4. For the side adjustment, the upper band part is equipped in the same way as the lower band part, namely with a threaded bolt 7 which can be rotated about its longitudinal axis but locked in the axial direction and a band guide part 11 which, in contrast to the lower band part, has no additional function here. The door and window hinge shown in FIG. 7 can be adjusted with a single tool, for example with an Allen key, in the frame on the side of the screw head 8ʹ, on the leaf on the side of the screw head 8 and also in height on the screw head 8ʺ. This considerably simplifies assembly, and these simple adjustments can also be carried out on a door or window that has already been installed.

For the height adjustment, however, the band must also have a simple fixing or locking option. This means that if the hinge is installed and adjusted with the wing attached, this setting must be fixed in such a way that it can no longer unintentionally loosen or adjust. In addition, however, the fixation should, if desired, be released as often as desired and the height of the wing can be reset. This fixation can be achieved here by increasing static friction until the guide pin 11 is clamped slightly against its rotatability in a simple manner.

This also applies to the threaded body 7ʹ of the lower band part or 7 of the upper band part, which can be adjusted with a simple tool by overcoming the static friction, but cannot inadvertently turn out of position, for example as a result of vibrations or the pivoting movements of the wing.

The two FIGS. 8 and 9 show an advantageous measure on the same door and window hinge for securing against break-in for sashes which can be opened to the outside. The threaded bolt 7ʺ is used for longitudinal adjustment / side adjustment and therefore carries a screw attachment at one end. The hinge can be unscrewed to this frame, even without authorization. Figure 8 shows a measure preventing this for use on iron frames, Figure 9 for use on wooden frames and wooden wings. For this purpose, the threaded bolt 7ʺ has a further recess 62 which is at least as wide as the selected adjustment range in the longitudinal adjustment axis. For iron frames, the web 60 (FIG. 5) is replaced by the welding block 60ʹ, in which a cross pin which engages in the groove (groove) 62 is hammered in after assembly. In the case of wooden frames and wooden casements, the transverse pin 63 is directly hammered in with the hinge assembled using a peg gauge without using a hole. This pinning means that when the sash is closed, it is no longer possible to unscrew the pinned hinge part (here the hinge lower part) from the frame. For disassembly, it is necessary to swing out the wing part, i.e. to open it, so that the cross pin can be removed.

The height adjustment device of the door and window hinge according to the invention can, as already mentioned in connection with FIG. 4, also be arranged in the wing part of a door and window hinge. With the simple and universal construction according to the invention, the high requirements of the task can be largely met.

Finally, FIG. 10 shows a door and window hinge with a side and a height adjustment part. In the upper part of the figure you can see the side adjustment part with the adjusting spindle 26, which has an eccentric extension 263, and with the sliding part incorporated in the tab 21. In the lower part of the figure you can see the height adjustment part with the adjusting spindle 11, which has an eccentric projection 52, and with the sliding part 55. The function and structure of the two adjusting parts were each dealt with in detail.

With this embodiment, the adjustment during assembly and any subsequent readjustment is easy and simple and fulfills the task perfectly. The small number of parts of the belt is remarkable, with which this universal application and the multiple adjustment possibilities can be realized.
