Damit die Tür einer Duschkabine unter Federwirkung gegen ihren zugeordneten Anschlag geführt wird, soll der Abstand der beiden koaxialen Scharnierhülsen (5, 6) großer sein als die Länge der zwischen ihnen angeordneten Scharnierhülse (7), soll im hülsenfreien Abstandsbereich eine den Scharnierbolzen (8) umgebende Schraubenfeder (10) angeordnet sein and soll jedes Ende der Schraubenfeder (10) an seinem anderen Beschlagteil (1, 2) gehalten sein.The invention relates to a hinge fitting for shower cubicles, one fitting part (2) of which has two spaced and coaxially arranged hinge sleeves (5, 6) and the other fitting part (1) of which has a hinge sleeve (7) engaging between the two coaxial hinge sleeves (5, 6) The two fitting parts (1, 2) are connected by a hinge pin (8) inserted into the hinge sleeves (5, 6, 7) aligned with one another. In order for the door of a shower cubicle to be guided against its assigned stop under spring action, the distance between the two coaxial hinge sleeves (5, 6) should be greater than the length of the hinge sleeve (7) arranged between them, one of the hinge bolts (8) should be surrounding coil spring (10) and each end of the coil spring (10) should be held on its other fitting part (1, 2).

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Scharnierbeschlag für Duschkabinen, dessen eines Beschlagteil zwei mit Abstand und koaxial angeordnete Scharnierhülsen und dessen anderes Beschlagteil eine zwischen die beiden koaxialen Scharnierhülsen eingreifende Scharnierhülse aufweist, wobei die beiden Beschlagteile durch einen in die miteinander fluchtenden Scharnierhülsen eingesetzten Scharnierbolzen verbunden sind.The invention relates to a hinge fitting for shower cubicles, one fitting part of which has two hinge sleeves arranged at a distance and coaxially and the other fitting part of which has a hinge sleeve which engages between the two coaxial hinge sleeves, the two fitting parts being connected by a hinge bolt inserted into the hinge sleeves aligned with one another.

Duschkabinen, d.h. ihre Wände und Türen bestehen in der Regel aus Glas oder einem durchsichtigen bzw. lichtdurchlässigen Material. Ihre Beschläge werden aus korrosionsbeständigem Material gefertigt, z.B. aus nicht rostenem Stahl oder aus Messing. Die Türen von Duschkabinen besitzen keine Verriegelungen, sondern lediglich Anschläge, die zumindest spritzwasserdicht sein müssen. Damit die Tür einer Duschkabine zumindest spritzwasserdicht schließt, muß sie beim Schließen gegen den Anschlag geführt werden. Das kann dadurch erfolgen, daß die Tür schwerkraftbedingt am Anschlag anliegt. Das kann auch mit Hilfe von Federn erfolgen. Hier fehlt jedoch eine einfache und optisch wenig auffallende Konstruktion der Scharnierbeschläge.Shower cubicles, ie their walls and doors are usually made of glass or a transparent or translucent material. Your fittings are made of corrosion-resistant material, such as rust-free steel or brass. The doors of shower cubicles have no interlocks, only stops, which must at least be splash-proof. So that the door of a shower cubicle closes at least splash-proof, it must be guided against the stop when closing. This can be done in that the door due to gravity at the stop is present. This can also be done with the help of springs. Here, however, a simple and visually unobtrusive construction of the hinge fittings is missing.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen Scharnierbeschlag der eingangs beschriebenen Gattung so auszubilden, daß damit die Tür einer Duschkabine unter Federwirkung gegen ihren zugeordneten Anschla geführt wird.The object of the invention is to provide a hinge fitting of the type described above so that the door of a shower cubicle is guided under spring action against its associated connection.

Diese Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, daß der Abstand der beiden koaxialen Scharnierhülsen größer ist als die Länge der zwischen ihnen angeordneten Scharnier­hülsen, daß im hülsenfreien Abstandsbereich eine den Scharnierbolzen umgebende Schraubenfeder angeordnet ist und daß jedes Ende der Schraubenfeder an einem anderen Beschlagteil gehalten ist. Bei dem erfindungs­gemäßen Scharnierbeschlag ist die Feder, die die Tür der Duschkabine gegen ihren Anschlag führt bzw. drückt, unauffällig in den Beschlag integriert, weil es eine Schraubenfeder ist, die den Scharnierbolzen im hülsen­freien Abstandsbereich umgibt. Der Durchmesser der Feder braucht nicht größer zu sein als der Durchmesser der Scharnierhülsen. Die Größe des Scharnierbeschlages insgesamt ändert sich nicht. Es versteht sich, daß die Schraubenfeder aus einem korrosionsbeständigen Material, insbesondere aus rostfreiem Stahl besteht.This object is achieved in that the distance between the two coaxial hinge sleeves is greater than the length of the hinge sleeves arranged between them, that a helical spring surrounding the hinge pin is arranged in the sleeve-free spacing area and that each end of the helical spring is held on a different fitting part. In the hinge fitting according to the invention, the spring that guides or pushes the door of the shower cubicle against its stop is inconspicuously integrated into the fitting, because it is a helical spring that surrounds the hinge pin in the sleeve-free spacing area. The diameter of the spring need not be larger than the diameter of the hinge sleeves. The overall size of the hinge fitting does not change. It is understood that the coil spring is made of a corrosion-resistant material, in particular stainless steel.

Zweckmäßig sollte die Länge der Schraubenfeder der Länge des hülsenfreien Abstandes entsprechen, so daß die Scharnierhülsen und die Schraubenfeder aus einigem Abstand gesehen eine einheitliche Baugruppe bilden.The length of the coil spring should expediently correspond to the length of the sleeve-free distance, so that the hinge sleeves and the coil spring form a unitary assembly when viewed from a distance.

Die Abstützung der Federenden an den beiden Beschlag­teilen ist auf einfache Weise dann möglich, wenn an jedem Beschlagteil eine Aufnahmehülse für ein Ende der Schraubenfeder befestigt ist. Die Enden brauchen dann nur in die Aufnahmehülsen gesteckt zu werden. Vorzugsweise können die Aufnahmehülsen neben und paral­lel zu den Scharnierhülsen angeordnet sein, wobei dann die Enden der Schraubenfeder abgewinkelt sind. Die Aufnahmehülsen sollten an der Scharnierinnenseite angeordnet sein, so daß sie von außen nicht sichtbar sind.The spring ends can be supported on the two fitting parts in a simple manner if a mounting sleeve for one end of the helical spring is attached to each fitting part. The ends need then only to be inserted into the receiving sleeves. The receiving sleeves can preferably be arranged next to and parallel to the hinge sleeves, in which case the ends of the helical spring are angled. The receiving sleeves should be arranged on the inside of the hinge so that they are not visible from the outside.

Im folgenden wird ein in der Zeichnung dargestelltes Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung erläutert; es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 in perspektivischer Darstellung einen Scharnier­beschlag für die Tür einer Duschkabine, die nach außen zu öffnen ist,
  • Fig. 2 einen Schnitt durch einen Scharnierbeschlag ähnlich Fig. 1, jedoch für eine nach innen zu öffnende Tür einer Duschkabine.
In the following an embodiment of the invention shown in the drawing is explained; show it:
  • 1 is a perspective view of a hinge fitting for the door of a shower cubicle that can be opened to the outside,
  • Fig. 2 shows a section through a hinge fitting similar to Fig. 1, but for an inward opening door of a shower cubicle.

Der in der Zeichnung dargestellte Scharnierbeschlag besteht aus zwei Beschlagteilen 1 bzw. 2. Das Beschlag­teil 1 wird, wie in Fig. 2 dargestellt, an einer Wand 3 der Duschkabine befestigt, das Beschlagteil 2 an einer Glastür 4 der Duschkabine.The hinge fitting shown in the drawing consists of two fitting parts 1 and 2. The fitting part 1 is, as shown in Fig. 2, attached to a wall 3 of the shower cabin, the fitting part 2 on a glass door 4 of the shower cabin.

Zum Beschlagteil 2 gehören zwei mit Abstand und koaxial angeordnete Scharnierhülsen 5, 6. Zum Beschlagteil 1 gehört eine Scharnierhülsen 7, die zwischen die beiden koaxialen Scharnierhülsen 5, 6 eingreift. Beide Beschlag­teile 1, 2 sid durch einen Scharnierbolzen 8, der in die miteinander fluchtenden Scharnierhülse 5, 6, 7 eingesetzt ist, verbunden. Der Scharnierbolzen 8 bildet eine Scharnierachse, um die die Glastür 4 in Richtung des Doppelpfeils 9 relativ zur Wand 3 verschwenkbar ist.The fitting part 2 includes two hinge sleeves 5, 6 arranged at a distance and coaxially. The fitting part 1 includes a hinge sleeve 7 which engages between the two coaxial hinge sleeves 5, 6. Both fitting parts 1, 2 are connected by a hinge pin 8, which is inserted into the hinge sleeve 5, 6, 7, which are aligned with one another. The hinge pin 8 forms a hinge axis about which the glass door 4 can be pivoted in the direction of the double arrow 9 relative to the wall 3.

Die beiden äußeren Scharnierhülsen 5, 6 besitzen einen gegenseitigen Abstand, der größer ist als die Länge der mittleren Scharnierhülse 7. Im abstandsfreien Bereich zwischen der mittleren Scharnierhülse 7 und der äußeren Scharnierhülse 5 ist eine Schraubenfeder 10 angeordnet, die den Scharnierbolzen 8 umgibt. Der Außendurchmesser der Schraubenfeder 10 entspricht etwa dem Außendurchmesser der Scharnierhülse 5, 6, 7. Die Schraubenfeder 10 erstreckt sich über die gesamte Länge des hülsenfreien Abstandes.The two outer hinge sleeves 5, 6 are at a mutual distance which is greater than the length of the middle hinge sleeve 7. In the space-free area between the middle hinge sleeve 7 and the outer hinge sleeve 5, a helical spring 10 is arranged which surrounds the hinge pin 8. The outer diameter of the helical spring 10 corresponds approximately to the outer diameter of the hinge sleeve 5, 6, 7. The helical spring 10 extends over the entire length of the sleeve-free distance.

Die Enden 11, 12 der Schraubenfeder sind parallel zum Scharnierbolzen 8 abgewinkelt und in Aufnahmehülsen 13, 14 eingesteckt, die an den Beschlagteilen 1, 2 befestigt sind. Die Aufnahmehülse 13 ist unmittelbar neben der Scharnierhülse 5 und parallel zu dieser angeordnet. Die Aufnahmehülse 14 ist unmittelbar neben der mittleren Scharnierhülse 7 und parallel zu dieser angeordnet. Beide Aufnahmehülsen 13, 14 sind an der Scharnierinnenseite angeordnet.The ends 11, 12 of the helical spring are angled parallel to the hinge pin 8 and inserted into receiving sleeves 13, 14 which are fastened to the fitting parts 1, 2. The receiving sleeve 13 is arranged directly next to the hinge sleeve 5 and parallel to it. The receiving sleeve 14 is arranged directly next to the central hinge sleeve 7 and parallel to it. Both receiving sleeves 13, 14 are arranged on the inside of the hinge.

Es versteht sich, daß die Schraubenfeder 10 so vorge­spannt ist, daß sie die Glastür 4 in ihre Schließstellung drückt. Alle Teile des Scharnierbeschlages bestehen aus korrosionsbeständigen Materialien.It is understood that the coil spring 10 is biased so that it presses the glass door 4 in its closed position. All parts of the hinge fitting are made of corrosion-resistant materials.
