Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hinge strap of the type corresponding to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a hinge band is known from DE-OS 37 05 131, in which the middle part extends over the entire height of the hinge band and both hinge parts are held in a dovetail guide extending along the middle part.
  • the three interacting parts can be extruded, but the lower hinge part requires a load-bearing locking device in the guide direction because it has to transmit the entire load of the wing.
  • the lock is formed in the known embodiment by a relatively thick cross pin, but the connection of the lower hinge part to the middle part, which are both made of aluminum, is a problematic point.
  • the guide length of the upper and lower hinge parts on the dovetail guide is also limited to its height.
  • the invention has for its object to further develop the generic hinge strap so that there is an improved absorption of the forces.
  • the one-piece design of the central part and the lower hinge part is known per se from DE-GM 91 06 758.
  • the known band can optionally be used as a normal, so-called two-part band and as a hinge band.
  • the middle part of the other hinge part ends at the height of the hinge part of the first hinge part.
  • it is also possible to add the other hinge part to a three-part hinge by adding a further hinge part above the middle part, which engages behind the middle part with a shoulder and locks it positively against being pulled out again. It is attached by means of a fastening screw which penetrates the middle part and the shoulder of the additional upper hinge part.
  • the approach of the upper hinge part can be designed in the invention according to claim 2 so that it covers the fastening screws used in the central part and this removes the view and prevents dirt accumulation.
  • the straight guide can comprise mutually opposing tongue and groove configurations, with one part thus encompassing the other part in a U-shape and including dovetail guides.
  • the locking device can comprise a spring-loaded ball according to claim 5.
  • the hinge band according to the invention can be made height-adjustable in the manner shown in claim 6. Such a height adjustment is known per se from DE-GM 90 06 439.
  • the first hinge part engages on the door, the window or the like, the other hinge part having the two hinge parts on the fixed frame.
  • the band designated 100 as a whole in FIG. 1 comprises a first band part 10 and another band part 20, which are pivotably mounted to one another about a hinge axis 1.
  • the hinge part 10 rests with its rear side 11 on the front surface 12 of the wing of a door, a window or the like, indicated by dash-dotted lines in FIG. 2, and is fixed therein by means of fastening screws 13, 14 and fastening pins 15.
  • the band part 10 encompasses the edge 16 of the wing with a bend 17 through which a fastening screw 18 inserted from the side engages.
  • the band part 10 has an upper side 2 and a lower side 3, which are flat and parallel to one another in the exemplary embodiment.
  • the hinge part 10 is loaded over the edge 12, 16 of the wing against the front surface 19 of the fixed frame, indicated by dash-dotted lines in FIG. 2, and there has a hinge part 4 through which the hinge pin 5 passes vertically.
  • the lower hinge part 6 of the hinge part 20 which is in one piece with a central part 7, which has approximately the shape of a strip-shaped plate and extends upwards behind the hinge part 4 and carries an upper hinge part 8 there, which, however, is not in one piece with the central part 7, but can be displaced thereon in a straight guide, designated as a whole as 9, parallel to the axis 1 of the hinge pin 5 (FIG. 5).
  • the central part 7 has grooves 21 on its opposite sides parallel to the front surface 19 of the fixed frame in its longitudinal direction, ie parallel to the hinge axis 1.
  • the upper hinge part 8 is U-shaped in this area formed and engages with on the inside of the legs of the "U" opposing webs or springs 22 in the grooves 21. In this way, there is the straight guide 9, in which the upper hinge part 8 is displaceable on the middle part, until a rear extension 23 on the upper end of the middle part 7 for contact is coming.
  • the operating state shown in FIGS. 1 and 3 is then reached, in which the upper hinge part 8 is locked by a ball catch connection 24 arranged in the middle part 7, the ball 25 of which locks into a recess 26 on the rear side of the hinge part 8.
  • the middle part 7 extends in this position over almost the entire height of the upper hinge part, and in this area there is also at least one of the perforations 40 for the fastening screws 27, by means of which the band part 20 is fixed to the front surface 19 of the fixed frame.
  • four fastening screws 27 are provided, which result in a considerable fastening length 28.
  • the rotation of the band part 20 in the plane given by the front surface 19 of the fixed frame is further prevented by additional fastening pins 29 at the lower or upper end of the band part 20.
  • the hinge pin 5 is guided in the hinge parts 6, 8 over bushings 30, which have an approximately square, but slightly rounded outer cross section and in a recess 31 at the upper end of the lower hinge part 6 and at the lower end of the upper hinge part 8 in the direction of the hinge axis 1 are slidably arranged.
  • the upper limit 32 of the lower hinge part 6 and the lower limit 33 of the upper hinge part 8 are at a distance from one another which exceeds the height of the hinge part 4 of the band part 10 which intervenes therebetween.
  • the recesses 31 pass into threaded bores 34 which are concentric with the hinge axis 1 and in which screw pieces 35 are adjustable. In this way, the hinge part 4, which rests on the lower bush 30, can be adjusted in height between the limits 32 and 33.
  • the upper hinge part 8 has a downwardly extending extension 36 which continues the cross section of the straight guide 9 shown in FIG. 4 downwards and extends over the entire height of the in the operating state according to FIG Middle part extends to the boundary surface 32 so that all fastening screws 27 are covered towards the visible side.
  • the extension 36 extends the engagement length of the straight guide 9 and thus the stability of the connection between the upper hinge part 8 and the middle part 7.
  • the hinge part 5 is guided in the hinge part 4 in a bush 37, which is actuated by actuating a screw 38 in the correspondingly enlarged vertical bore of the hinge part 4 perpendicular to the front surface 12 of the wing or 19 of the frame for the purpose of adjusting the so-called uncovering dimension 39 (FIG. 2) can be adjusted.
