Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Scharnier mit Verstelleinrichtungen, bei dem ein Scharnierarm mittels mindestens eines Zwischenstückes an einer Grundplatte befestigbar und mittels Gelenkhebel od.dgl. mit einem zweiten Scharnieranschlagteil, beispielsweise einem Scharniertopf, verbunden ist, wobei der Scharnierarm Löcher aufweist, durch die Verstell- und/oder Befestigungsschrauben ragen, und das Zwischenstück in die Grundplatte einhängbar und mittels eines am Zwischenstück drehbar gelagerten Kipphebels verriegelbar ist, wobei das Zwischenstück U-förmig ist und mit zwei Seitenstegen die Grundplatte seitlich umfaßt. Ein derartiges Scharnier ist aus der EP-A-0 225 609 bekannt.The invention relates to a hinge with adjusting devices, in which a hinge arm can be fastened to a base plate by means of at least one intermediate piece and the like or by means of an articulated lever. is connected to a second hinge stop part, for example a hinge cup, the hinge arm having holes through which adjusting and / or fastening screws protrude, and the intermediate piece can be suspended in the base plate and locked by means of a rocker arm rotatably mounted on the intermediate piece, the intermediate piece U -shaped and with two side webs the base plate laterally. Such a hinge is known from EP-A-0 225 609.

Bei herkömmlichen Scharnieren ist der Scharnierarm mittels einer Klemmschraube auf der Grundplatte befestigt, wobei diese Klemmschraube im allgemeinen durch ein Langloch ragt, um so eine Verstellung des Scharnierarmes in der Tiefe des Möbels möglich zu machen.In conventional hinges, the hinge arm is fastened to the base plate by means of a clamping screw, this clamping screw generally protruding through an elongated hole, in order to make it possible to adjust the hinge arm in the depth of the furniture.

In letzter Zeit sind auch Schnappverbindungen zur Befestigung des Scharnierarmes an der Grundplatte bekannt geworden. So zeigen zum Beispiel die DE-A-30 26 796 und 30 39 328 Scharniere mit einem Scharnierarm und einer Befestigungsplatte, bei dem durch Einsetzen des Scharnierarmes in eine Führung der Befestigungsplatte und Verschieben desselben in längsrichtung die beiden miteinander zu verriegelnden Teile ineinander einschnappen. Eine ähnliche Verankerung eines Scharnierarmes auf einer Grundplatte ist in der DE-A-24 60 127 gezeigt. Die DE-A-32 41 284 zeigt ein Scharnier, bei dem der Scharnierarm in seitliche Führungen einer Grundplatte einschiebbar und mittels eines Exzenters auf der Grundplatte klemmbar ist.Recently, snap connections for fastening the hinge arm to the base plate have also become known. For example, DE-A-30 26 796 and 30 39 328 show hinges with a hinge arm and a fastening plate, in which, by inserting the hinge arm into a guide of the fastening plate and moving the same in the longitudinal direction, the two parts to be locked snap together. A similar anchoring of a hinge arm on a base plate is shown in DE-A-24 60 127. DE-A-32 41 284 shows a hinge in which the hinge arm can be inserted into lateral guides of a base plate and clamped on the base plate by means of an eccentric.

Die vorhergehend beschriebenen Scharnierarmverankerungen haben den Vorteil, daß der Scharnierarm beim Zusammenbau des Möbels sehr schnell auf der Grundplatte festgelegt werden kann und daß weiters zur Montage kein Werkzeug gebraucht wird. Dieser Vorteil ist nicht zu unterschätzen, da beim Einhängen der Scharnierarme der Türflügel gehalten werden muß. Wird zum Beispiel der Türflügel mit einer Hand gehalten und der gerade aufzusetzende Scharnierarm mit der anderen, dann bedarf es, falls die Arretierung des Scharnierarmes mittels einer Klemmschraube erfolgt, in vielen Fällen einer zweiten Person, die die Klemmschraube mit einem Schraubenzieher anzieht.The hinge arm anchors described above have the advantage that the hinge arm can be very quickly fixed on the base plate when assembling the piece of furniture and that no tools are required for assembly. This advantage should not be underestimated, since the door leaf must be held when the hinge arms are attached. If, for example, the door leaf is held with one hand and the hinge arm to be put on with the other, then in many cases, if the hinge arm is locked by means of a clamping screw, a second person is required to tighten the clamping screw with a screwdriver.

Ein Nachteil der Scharniere, bei denen der Scharnierarm oder das Zwischenstück von vorne in die Grundplatte einschiebbar ist, ist, daß es leicht zu einem Verkanten kommt. Dies ist insbesondere bei hohen Türen, die viele Scharniere tragen, der Fall.A disadvantage of the hinges, in which the hinge arm or the intermediate piece can be inserted into the base plate from the front, is that it can easily tilt. This is particularly the case with tall doors that have many hinges.

Gemäß der AT-PS 360 856 ist ein Scharnier vorgeschlagen worden, dessen Zwischenstück an einem Ende in die Grundplatte einhängbar ist und das am anderen Ende einen Kipphebel aufweist, mittels dem es an der Grundplatte verriegelbar ist.According to AT-PS 360 856, a hinge has been proposed, the intermediate piece of which can be hooked into the base plate at one end and which has a rocker arm at the other end, by means of which it can be locked on the base plate.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein derartiges Scharnier insoferne zu verbessern, daß es zu keinem Spiel zwischen dem Zwischenstück und der Grundplatte kommt.The object of the invention is to improve such a hinge to the extent that there is no play between the intermediate piece and the base plate.

Dies wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch erreicht, daß beide Seitenstege des Zwischenstückes an der Grundplatte spielfrei bzw. mit Untertoleranz anliegen, so daß das Zwischenstück auf die Grundplatte aufgedrückt werden muß und daß mindestens einer der Seitenstege an mindestens einer Stelle mit einer Materialschwächung versehen ist.This is achieved according to the invention in that both side webs of the intermediate piece rest against the base plate without play or with under-tolerance, so that the intermediate piece must be pressed onto the base plate and that at least one of the side webs is provided with a material weakening at at least one point.

Durch diese erfindungsgemäße Ausführung ist es möglich, den Abstand zwischen den beiden Schenkeln des Zwischenstückes sehr knapp zu bemessen. Die Materialabschwächung verhindert das Auftreten zu starker Aufdrückkräfte, wenn das Zwischenstück mit Klemmwirkung auf die Grundplatte aufgedrückt wird.This embodiment of the invention makes it possible to measure the distance between the two legs of the intermediate piece very narrowly. The weakening of the material prevents the occurrence of excessive pressing forces when the intermediate piece is pressed onto the base plate with a clamping effect.

Vorteilhaft ist vorgesehen, daß die Materialschwächung von einem Schlitz gebildet wird.It is advantageously provided that the material weakening is formed by a slot.

Weiters ist vorteilhaft vorgesehen, daß sich der Schlitz in der Längsrichtung des Zwischenstückes erstreckt und in der Nähe des Kipphebels angeordnet ist.It is also advantageously provided that the slot extends in the longitudinal direction of the intermediate piece and is arranged in the vicinity of the rocker arm.

Der erfindungsgemäße Sitz des Zwischenstückes auf der Grundplatte wird in einem weiteren Ausführungsbeispiel dadurch erzielt, daß das Zwischenstück, das mit einem Querstift in die Kerbe der Grundplatte eingehängt ist, mit seinen beiden Seitenschenkeln die Grundplatte spielfrei umfaßt und daß die Erzeugenden bzw. die Längsmittelachsen der Kerbe und des Querstiftes unverspannt in einem flachen Winkel von vorzugsweise 1° zueinander liegen, sodaß das verwindungsfähige Zwischenstück unter Eigenspannung auf der Grundplatte gehalten ist.The seat of the intermediate piece according to the invention on the base plate is achieved in a further embodiment in that the intermediate piece, which is suspended in the notch of the base plate with a transverse pin, comprises the base plate with its two side legs without play and that the generators or the longitudinal central axes of the notch and the cross pin are unstressed at a flat angle of preferably 1 ° to each other, so that the twistable intermediate piece is held under internal stress on the base plate.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausführung ist es möglich, eine Spannung zwischen dem Zwischenstück und der Grundplatte zu erzielen, die eine Folge einer Verwindung des Zwischenstückes ist.The design according to the invention makes it possible to achieve a tension between the intermediate piece and the base plate, which is a result of a twisting of the intermediate piece.

Nachstehend werden Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung anhand der Figuren der beiliegenden Zeichnungen eingehend beschrieben.Exemplary embodiments of the invention are described in detail below with reference to the figures in the accompanying drawings.

Die Fig. 1 zeigt ein Schaubild eines erfindungsgemäßen Scharnieres, die Fig. 2 zeigt einen Längsschnitt durch einen Scharnierarm und eine Grundplatte in der Stellung während des Einhängens des Scharnierarmes, die Fig. 3 zeigt eine Seitenansicht der Grundplatte, die Fig. 4 zeigt eine Draufsicht auf das Zwischenstück, die Fig. 5 zeigt eine Seitenansicht des Zwischenstückes, die Fig. 6 zeigt einen Schnitt nach der Linie I-I der Fig. 5, und die Fig. 7 zeigt eine Stirnansicht der Grundplatte.Fig. 1 shows a diagram of a hinge according to the invention, Fig. 2 shows a longitudinal section through a hinge arm and a base plate in the position during the hanging of the hinge arm, Fig. 3 shows a side view of the base plate, Fig. 4 shows a plan view on the intermediate piece, FIG. 5 shows a side view of the intermediate piece, FIG. 6 shows a section along the line II of FIG. 5, and FIG. 7 shows an end view of the base plate.

Wie aus den Figuren der Zeichnung ersichtlich, sind die erfindungswesentlichen Teile des Scharnieres der Scharnierarm 1, die Grundpaltte 2 und das Zwischenstück 3 mit dem Kipphebel 4.As can be seen from the figures of the drawing, the parts of the hinge essential to the invention are the hinge arm 1, the base gap 2 and the intermediate piece 3 with the rocker arm 4.

Der Scharnierarm 1 ist am Zwischenstück 3 mittels einer Fugenverstellschraube 6, die in einem Muttergewinde im Scharnierarm 1 lagert, und mittels einer Klemmschraube 5, die auch der Tiefenverstellung dient, befestigt. Die Klemmschraube 5 ragt durch einen Längsschlitz 8 im Scharnierarm 1 und ebenso ist die Fugenverstellschraube 6 mit ihrem Kopf 6′ in einem Längsschlitz 9 im Ziwschenstück 3 gehalten. Durch Lösen der Klemmschraube 5 kann der Scharnierarm 1 über die Länge des Schlitzes 8 verschoben und somit in der Tiefe des Möbels verstellt werden. Die Verstellung in der Richtung der Möbeltürfuge erfolgt auf herkömmliche Art und Weise durch Verdrehen der Fugenverstellschraube 6.The hinge arm 1 is fastened to the intermediate piece 3 by means of a joint adjustment screw 6, which is supported in a nut thread in the hinge arm 1, and by means of a clamping screw 5, which also serves for the depth adjustment. The clamping screw 5 protrudes through a longitudinal slot 8 in the hinge arm 1 and also the joint adjusting screw 6 is held with its head 6 'in a longitudinal slot 9 in the intermediate piece 3. By loosening the clamping screw 5, the hinge arm 1 can be moved over the length of the slot 8 and thus adjusted in the depth of the furniture. The adjustment in the direction of the furniture door is carried out in a conventional manner by turning the joint adjustment screw 6.

Sowohl die Grundplatte 2 als auch das Zwischenstück 3 sind mit U-Profil ausgeführt.Both the base plate 2 and the intermediate piece 3 are designed with a U-profile.

Vorne ist das Zwischenstück 3 mit einem durchgehenden Stift 10 versehen, der als Haltevorsprung des Zwischenstückes 3 dient. Die Grundplatte 2 weist vorne eine Kerbe 11 auf, in die der Stift 10 einhängbar ist, so daß er an der Grundplatte 2 gehalten ist.At the front, the intermediate piece 3 is provided with a continuous pin 10, which serves as a holding projection of the intermediate piece 3. The base plate 2 has a notch 11 in the front, into which the pin 10 can be hung, so that it is held on the base plate 2.

Am hinteren Ende ist die Grundplatte 2 ebenso mit einer Kerbe 12 versehen.At the rear end, the base plate 2 is also provided with a notch 12.

Am hinteren Ende des Scharnierarmes 3 lagert der Kipphebel 4 mittels eines Zapfens 13. Am Kipphebel 4 ist der Hakenteil 15 ausgebildet.The rocker arm 4 is supported at the rear end of the hinge arm 3 by means of a pin 13. The hook part 15 is formed on the rocker arm 4.

Der Kipphebel 4 wird von einer Feder 7 beaufschlagt, die sich mit einem Ende am Scharnierarm 1 abstützt. Im Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Feder 7 eine Schenkelfeder.The rocker arm 4 is acted upon by a spring 7 which is supported at one end on the hinge arm 1. In the exemplary embodiment, the spring 7 is a leg spring.

Wird nun der Scharnierarm 1 mit dem Zwischenstück 3 aus der in der Fig. 2 gezeigten Stellung auf die Grundplatte 2 gedrückt, rastet der Hakenteil 15 des Kipphebels 4 in der Kerbe 12 ein und der Scharnierarm 1 ist auf der Grundplatte 2 verankert.If the hinge arm 1 with the intermediate piece 3 is pressed onto the base plate 2 from the position shown in FIG. 2, the hook part 15 of the rocker arm 4 engages in the notch 12 and the hinge arm 1 is anchored on the base plate 2.

Die Verstellung des Scharnierarmes 1, falls notwendig, erfolgt in der zuvor beschriebenen Art und Weise.The adjustment of the hinge arm 1, if necessary, is carried out in the manner described above.

Am Kippteil 4 ist ein Griffteil 4′ ausgebildet. Soll der Scharnierarm 1 von der Grundplatte 2 gelöst werden, genügt es, diesen Griffteil 4′ anzuheben, worauf der Haltevorsprung 15 aus der Kerbe 12 ausrastet und der Scharnierarm 1 mit dem Zwischenstück 3 von der Grundplatte 2 abhebbar ist.On the tilt part 4, a handle part 4 'is formed. If the hinge arm 1 to be released from the base plate 2, it is sufficient to raise this grip part 4 ', whereupon the retaining projection 15 disengages from the notch 12 and the hinge arm 1 with the intermediate piece 3 can be lifted off the base plate 2.

Um einen spielfreien Sitz der Einheit Scharnierarm 1 und Zwischenstück 3 auf der Grundplatte 2 in der Längsrichtung des Scharnierarmes 1 zu sichern, ist das Zwischenstück 3 mit einem Querstift 16 versehen, der in einer Kerbe 17 der Grundplatte 2 einrastet. Die Positionierung des Zwischenstückes 3 und somit des Scharnierarmes 1 erfolgt zwischen dem Stift 10 und dem Stift 16.In order to ensure a play-free seat of the unit hinge arm 1 and intermediate piece 3 on the base plate 2 in the longitudinal direction of the hinge arm 1, the intermediate piece 3 is provided with a cross pin 16 which engages in a notch 17 in the base plate 2. The positioning of the intermediate piece 3 and thus of the hinge arm 1 takes place between the pin 10 and the pin 16.

Durch diese Ausbildung muß vom Kipphebel 4 nur verhindert werden, daß der Scharnierarm 1 in der Richtung des Pfeiles A von der Grundplatte 2 abgehoben wird. Das heißt, es sind nur minimale Kräfte aufzunehmen. Die stärkeren Kräfte, die in der Längsrichtung des Zwischenstückes 3 wirken, werden durch den Formschluß zwischen dem Stift 16 und der Kerbe 17 aufgenommen.With this design, the rocker arm 4 only has to prevent the hinge arm 1 from being lifted off the base plate 2 in the direction of arrow A. This means that only minimal forces have to be absorbed. The stronger forces that act in the longitudinal direction of the intermediate piece 3 are absorbed by the positive connection between the pin 16 and the notch 17.

Auf den montierten Scharnierarm 1 wirken naturgemäß die stärksten Kräfte quer zur Längsrichtung des Scharnierarmes. Es ist daher äußerst wichtig, daß ein seitliches Spiel zwischen dem Zwischenstück 3 und der Grundplatte 2 vermieden wird. Dazu ist die in der Fig. 5 mit X bezeichnete lichte Weite zwischen den beiden Seitenschenkeln 3′ des Zwischenstückes 3 in bezug auf die Breite B der Grundplatte 2 sehr knapp zu messen bzw. besteht eine geringfügige Untertoleranz, sodaß das Zwischenstück 3 auf die Grundplatte 2 aufgedrückt werden muß und eine auf die Seitenschenkel 3′ wirkende seitliche Kraftkomponente auftritt.The strongest forces naturally act on the assembled hinge arm 1 transversely to the longitudinal direction of the hinge arm. It is therefore extremely important that lateral play between the intermediate piece 3 and the base plate 2 is avoided. For this purpose, the clear width designated by X in FIG. 5 between the two side legs 3 'of the intermediate piece 3 with respect to the width B of the base plate 2 is to be measured very closely or there is a slight under-tolerance, so that the intermediate piece 3 on the base plate 2 must be pressed and a side force component acting on the side legs 3 'occurs.

Um die Aufdrückkraft nicht zu stark ansteigen zu lassen, ist erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, daß einer der beiden Seitenschenkel 3′ des Zwischenstückes 3 mit einem Längsschlitz 20 versehen ist. Der Längsschlitz 20 erstreckt sich in der Längsrichtung des Zwischenstückes 3 und ist beim hinteren Ende des Zwischenstückes 3, d.h. in der Nähe des Kipphebels 4 vorgesehen.In order not to let the pressing force increase too much, the invention provides that one of the two side legs 3 'of the intermediate piece 3 is provided with a longitudinal slot 20. The longitudinal slot 20 extends in the longitudinal direction of the intermediate piece 3 and is provided at the rear end of the intermediate piece 3, ie in the vicinity of the rocker arm 4.

Um eine weitere Verspannung zu erreichen, liegen die Erzeugenden bzw. liegt die Längsmittelachse der Kerbe 11 schräg zum Stift 10. Der Neigungswinkel ist sehr gering, im Ausführungsbeispiel 1°. Selbstverständlich ist es dabei egal, ob die Kerbe 11 oder der Stift 10 mit einer geringen Neigung oder parallel zur Montageebene ausgerichtet ist. Von Bedeutung ist lediglich der Winkel zwischen den beiden Elementen. Im Prinzip handelt es sich hierbei um einen theoretischen Winkel, weil ja während der Montage der Stift 10 in die Kerbe 11 eingelegt wird und somit in dieser gehalten ist. Das Zwischenstück 3 muß, wenn es auf die Grundplatte 2 aufgesetzt wird, im geringen Maße verwindungsfähig sein, damit es mit seinen Seitenschenkeln 3′ die Grundplatte 2 satt umfassen kann. Die Verwindung, die durch den theoretischen Winkel zwischen der Kerbe 11 und dem Stift 10 hervorgerufen wird, erzeugt eine Spannung, die einen absolut sicheren Sitz des Zwischenstückes 3 auf der Grundplatte 2 garantiert.In order to achieve a further bracing, the generators lie or the longitudinal central axis of the notch 11 is at an angle to the pin 10. The angle of inclination is very small, in the exemplary embodiment 1 °. Of course, it does not matter whether the notch 11 or the pin 10 is aligned with a slight inclination or parallel to the mounting plane. Only the angle between the two elements is important. In principle, this is a theoretical angle, because the pin 10 is inserted into the notch 11 during assembly and is thus held in this. The intermediate piece 3 must, when it is placed on the base plate 2, be twistable to a small extent so that it can include the base plate 2 with its side legs 3 '. The twist, which is caused by the theoretical angle between the notch 11 and the pin 10, generates a tension that guarantees an absolutely secure fit of the intermediate piece 3 on the base plate 2.

Claims (4)

1. Hinge having adjustment means, in which a hinge arm (1) is securable by means of at least one intermediate piece (3) to a baseplate (2) and is connected by means of articulated levers or the like to a second hinge stop part, for example a hinge pot, the hinge arm (1) having holes (8) through which adjustment and/or securing screws (5, 6) project, and the intermediate piece (3) being suspendible in the baseplate (2) and being lockable by means of a tilt lever (4) mounted rotatably on the intermediate piece (3), the intermediate piece (3) being U-shaped and laterally surrounding the baseplate (2) by means of two side webs (3′), characterized in that both side webs of the intermediate piece (3) bear against the baseplate (2) without play or with negative tolerance, so that the intermediate piece (3) has to be pressed onto the baseplate (2), and in that at least one of the side webs (3′) is provided at at least one point with a material thinning.
2. Hinge according to Claim 1, characterized in that the material thinning is formed by a slot (20).
3. Hinge according to Claim 2, characterized in that the slot (20) extends in the longitudinal direction of the intermediate piece (3) and is arranged in the vicinity of the tilt lever (4).
4. Hinge having adjustment means, in which a hinge arm (1) is securable by means of at least one intermediate piece (3) to a baseplate (2) and is connected by means of articulated levers or the like to a second hinge stop part, for example a hinge pot, the hinge arm (1) having holes (8) through which adjustment and/or securing screws (5, 6) project, and the intermediate piece (3) being suspendible by means of a transverse pin (10) in a notch (11) in the baseplate (2) and being lockable by means of a tilt lever (4) mounted rotatably on the intermediate piece (3), the intermediate piece (3) being U-shaped and laterally surrounding the baseplate (2) by means of two side webs (3′), characterized in that the intermediate piece (3) surrounds the baseplate (2) with its two side legs (3′) without play, and in that the generatrices or the longitudinal centre axes (LM) of the notch (11) in the baseplate (2) and of the transverse pin (10) lie without tension at a shallow angle (α) of preferably 1° with respect to one another, so that the twistable intermediate piece (3) is held under its own tension on the baseplate (2).
