Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a hinge assembly for windows and doors of the type which can be opened both in the leaf mode, i.e. by turning of their mobile part around a vertical axis, and in the tiltable mode, i.e. by rotation of their mobile part around an horizontal axis.
- The windows and doors requiring a tilt-and-turn type opening are provided with hinges allowing both way of opening and a device associated to the handle which allows the window or door to be opened according to the requested mode. In particular, the leaf type opening is obtained by a 90° rotation of the actuating handle starting from its closure position, i.e. the mobile part of the window opens by rotating on a pair of vertically aligned side hinges. The tiltable mode opening is obtained by means of a 180° rotation of the actuating handle with fulcrum on the lower side hinge; a upper stop arm, extending between the upper edge of the mobile part and the fixed window frame, supports the mobile part in a tilted position. Solutions in which a 90° rotation allows for the tiltable mode opening and a 180° rotation the leaf mode opening are also known.
- The lower side hinge performs the double task of allowing for the rotation of the mobile part around its vertical axis and, as an alternative, around an horizontal axis. In order that the lower hinge can work appropriately in the tiltable mode, it is essential that the horizontal axis of rotation be placed as lower as possible and preferably into alignment with the lower edge of the mobile part so as to prevent said edge from bumping into the window frame when opening in the tiltable mode. Furthermore, in the leaf mode opening, the lower hinge must support all the weight of the window as the upper hinge is disengageable from the mobile part.
- In a known type of tilt-and-turn type window the above problem is solved by positioning the hinges beyond the lower end of the mobile part, this clearly resulting in a large and complex hinge structure with comparatively high production costs. Moreover, this type of solution sacrifices considerably the aesthetic appearance of the window.
- In another type of tilt-and-turn type window disclosed in EP-A-0478519 the same problem is solved by positioning the lower side hinge at an higher level, but carrying out the horizontal rotation by sliding the whole lower side hinge on an arched support integral to the frame. More particularly, the lower body of the hinge has a bracket engaging with a box-like body integral with the fixed frame. The bracket is shaped with a concavedly arched base resting on an equally shaped support extending at the bottom of the box-like body and is also connected to said body by means of a transverse pin crossing the bracket in correspondence of a slot, the width of which defines the maximum angular displacement of the window. This solution is expensive and difficult to assemble. Furthermore, since the lower hinge body must bear the weight of the window and must be oscillating to allow the window opening according to the tiltable mode, it obviously exhibits a lower load capacity with respect to a similar, fixed and screw-secured component.
- The object of the present invention is to provide a hinge assembly for tilt-and-turn type windows capable of being mounted at a certain distance from the lower edge of the mobile part even though the horizontal axis of rotation is close to said edge, and having a structure particularly simple and, therefore, inexpensive and, at the same time, not sacrificed as regards its load capacity.
- The above object is reached with the hinge assembly according to the present invention, the essential features of which are set forth in the appended
claim 1. - Substantially, in the hinge according to the present invention the tiltable opening mode is performed by providing a pin which engages with the hub portion of the lower body of the hinge in a not pivotal way, but angularly movable around a rotation center substantially at the lower end of the hub portion of the hinge lower body, i.e. the end close to the lower edge of the window.
- Advantageously, the possibility of angularly displacing the pin can be achieved by properly shaping the pin portion which engages with the hub portion and/or the corresponding seat formed therein. In particular, the seat may have a rectangular cross-section and the pin portion engaged therewith may be of a flat, elongate shape with a side parallel to the pin axis and the other one inclined with respect to it and with the maximum width at the free end.
- Features and advantages of the hinge for fixtures of the tilt-and-turn type according to the present invention will be apparent from the following description of an exemplifying and nonlimiting embodiment made with reference to the attached drawings, wherein:
- Figure 1 is an exploded schematic view of the hinge assembly according to the invention;
- Figure 2 is a transverse cross-sectional view of the hinge in the leaf opening mode, taken along line II-II of figure 1;
- Figure 3 is a transverse cross-sectional view similar to that of figure 2, but with the hinge in the tiltable opening mode;
- Figure 4 is a partial schematic view of the hinge according to the invention mounted on a conventional fixture of the tilt-and-turn type;
- Figure 5 is a plan view of the fixture portion shown in figure 4 according to the direction F;
- Figure 6 shows the portion of fixture according to arrow G of figure 4 opened in the tiltable mode;
- Figure 7 is a perspective view of a possible embodiment of a pin for the hinge of the invention;
- Figure 8 is a perspective view of the metallic core of the pin of figure 7;
- Figure 9 is a longitudinal section of the pin of figure 7.
- With reference to the attached drawings, 1 denotes a lower body of a hinge fixable to a
fixed frame 2 of a window and 3 an upper body of the hinge fixable to the mobile part orleaf 4 of the window. Furthermore, 5 denotes a pin pivotally connectinglower hinge body 1 toupper hinge body 3. -
Lower hinge body 1 comprises a hub la and anangle bracket 1b extending from hub 1a for connectinglower hinge body 1 to fixedframe 2 by means ofscrews 6. Likewise,upper hinge body 3 comprises ahub 3a and anangle bracket 3b extending fromhub 3a for connectingupper hinge body 3 toleaf 4 by means ofscrews 7. Hub la oflower hinge body 1 has anaxial seat 8 of substantially rectangular cross-section extending from one end to the other one of hub la. The major axis of the section ofseat 8 lies on a plane perpendicular to the window plane and containing the axis ofpin 5.Hub 3a ofupper hinge body 3 has an axial seat 9 of circular cross-section extending from one end to the other thereof. -
Pin 5 comprises a cylindrical portion 5a and aflat portion 5b separated by an intermediate abuttingring 5c. Cylindrical portion 5a can be pivotally engaged within seat 9 of hub la ofupper hinge body 3, whileflat portion 5b can be engaged withinaxial seat 8 of hub la oflower hinge body 1. -
Flat portion 5b is of a length substantially equal to that ofaxial seat 8 and its maximum width is in correspondence of its free end, the width progressively decreasing while approaching to the intermediate abuttingring 5c. To that end,opposite sides flat portion 5b are parallel to the axis ofpin 5 and, respectively, inclined toward said axis. The section of the free end offlat portion 5b is substantially equal to that ofaxial seat 8 of hub la, whereby the mutual engagement occurs with a minimum clearance sufficient to define a not pivotable coupling while allowing for the relative sliding between the faces offlat portion 5b and the respective inner faces ofaxial seat 8. In this way, betweeninclined side 11 offlat portion 5b and the confronting side of axial seat 8 a substantially triangular room is formed, in whichflat portion 5b can be displaced angularly on the plane of the axis ofpivot 5 and perpendicular to the window plane and having a rotation centre in correspondence of the free end offlat portion 5b. - Advantageously, the edge of hub la, on which the
intermediate ring 5c ofpin 5 abuts, has arounded portion 12 at the side opposite to that from whichangular bracket 1b extends and in correspondence to one of the minor sides of the rectangular,axial seat 8. The radius of curvature R ofrounded portion 12 can be any, but preferably such as to allow for a continuous sliding ofintermediate ring 5c thereon. In particular, this radius can be substantially equal to the length ofaxial seat 8, whereby the centre of rotation ofpin 5 and the centre of curvature ofrounded portion 12 coincide and are both substantially at the level of the lower edge of hub la. In order to allow the hinge to be used with both right and left leaves,rounded portion 12 can be formed on both ends of hub la, as shown in figures 2 and 3. - The operation of the hinge according to the invention is clear from the above description. With particular reference to figures 2 and 3, in the leaf opening mode the hinge is the condition shown in figure 2,
i.e. side 10 offlat portion 5b, parallel to the axis ofpin 5, abuts against a inner side ofaxial seat 8. In these conditions the leaf rotates around cylindrical portion 5a without relative movements betweenpin 5 andlower hinge body 1, as the flat shape offlat portion 5b ofpin 5 does not allow the rotation ofpin 5 around the vertical axis. In this case the weight of the leaf is borne bylower hinge body 1 through intermediate abuttingring 5c. - In the tiltable opening mode the hinge is in the condition shown in figure 3 and the leaf rotates around an horizontal axis passing through centre of rotation C and
inclined side 11 offlat portion 5b abuts against the opposed inner side ofaxial seat 8. This is made possible by virtue of the shape offlat portion 5b ofpin 5 that leaves a free room withinaxial seat 8 betweeninclined side 11 offlat portion 5b and a inner side ofaxial seat 8, thus allowingpin 5 to accomplish an angular displacement around centre of rotation C substantially equal to the inclination angle α ofinclined side 11 with respect to the axis ofpin 5. Even in this case the weight of the leaf is carried bylower hinge body 1 throughintermediate ring 5c ofpin 5. Moreover, as also shown in figure 6, the tiltable type opening of the leaf is obtained while preventing thelower portion 13 ofleaf 4 from significantly approaching toside 14 offixed frame 2, as centre of rotation C is substantially aligned to the lower end oflower hinge body 1. - Compared to the similar, conventional hinges, the hinge according to the invention can be mounted at an higher level with respect to the lower edge of the leaf, even though the axis of rotation is very low close to said lower edge, and, furthermore, has a considerably simple structure without additional components. This results in a lower production costs and makes easier mounting operations.
-
Pin 5 can be made of metal or plastics in one piece only, or by assembling its component parts even made of different materials, for example by providing for an antifriction plastic coating on the cylindrical portion 5a and on theintermediate ring 5c. - Figures 5, 6, 7 and 8 show a currently preferred embodiment of the pin used in the hinge according to the invention. In the depicted embodiment,
pin 5 is formed by a flatmetallic core 15, aportion 15a of which is of an elongate rectangular shape, while theother portion 15b is of substantially trapezoidal shape and forms the flatshaped portion 5b ofpin 5. Onportion 15a is secured, in any known way, acoating 16 of plastic material, which preferably has antifriction properties, of cylindrical shape and such section that it can engage with seat 9 ofupper hinge body 3. - Intermediate
annular body 5c is obtained in a similar way by forming anannular enlargement 17 in the same material around the intermediate portion ofcore 15 in correspondence of the region from whichparts core 15 extends. Obviously,pin 5 can be made in different ways, but equivalent from the functional point of view, as will be clear to a person skilled in the art. - Several variations and modifications can be made to the hinge according to the invention. For example,
flat portion 5b ofpin 5 can be shaped in a different way, in particular it can be lightened with respect to the depicted embodiment. The lightening can result in the removal of a portion ofside 10 parallel to the axis of pin or a portion ofinclined side 11. It is also clear that an equivalent result can be achieved with a mirror solution according to which the portion ofpin 5 engaging withlower hinge body 1 is made of flat shape and constant width, whileseat 8 of hub portion la thereof is shaped in such a way that one side is inclined with respect to said axis to make possible the angular displacement which allows tiltable mode opening of the window. - Other variations and/or modifications may be brought to the hinge according to the invention without departing from the scope thereof as set forth in the appended claims.
