Abstract

The hinge comprises a hinge arm (1) joined to a fixed part (2) by a hinge pin (3). A guide component can be moved along guide slots (5, 6) in the arm and fixed part, the slot (6) for the fixed part being non-linear. At least one spring is used to hold the guide component in either of its two stop end positions (E1, E2). Pivoting the arm to move the guide component from one stop end position to a turning point (W) in the non-linear slot is achieved by overcoming a spring bias, and after this turning point the spring bias urges the arm into the second stop end position.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Klappscharnier-Gelenk mit einem ortsfesten Scharnierteil und einen verschwenkbaren Scharnierteil, die gelenkig miteinander verbunden sind.
Ein solches Klappscharnier-Gelenk dient als Einrichtung , um z.B. einen Deckel in einer Schließ(Zuhalte)-Position bzw. einer Öffnungsposition zu halten.
In der Deutschen Offenlegungsschrift DE 2232379 ist ein Klappenverschluß mit einer selbshaftenden Verschluß- und Öffnungs-Stellung beschrieben, bei der die Führung der Klappe mittels in einer rechtwinklig geknickten Nut geführter Zapfen unter Einwirkung einer Zugfeder erfolgt.

Diese Aufgabe der Erfindung wird in vorteilhafter Weise durch die im Anspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst.
Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet.This object of the invention is achieved in an advantageous manner by the features specified in claim 1.
Advantageous developments of the invention are characterized in the subclaims.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in den Zeichnungen dargestellt und wird im folgenden näher beschrieben. Es zeigen:

  • FIG. 1 eine vereinfachte perspektivische Darstellung des ortsfesten Scharnierteils und des verschwenkbaren Scharnierteils,
  • FIG.2 eine vereinfachte perspektivische Darstellung des ortsfesten Scharnierteils mit der in dessen Führungsbahn verlaufenden Gleitachse,
  • FIG.3 eine vereinfachte perspektivische auszugsweise Darstellung des verschwenkbaren Scharnierteils mit der in dessen Führungsbahn verlaufenden Gleitachse, welche von einer Torsionsfeder beaufschlagt wird.
    • An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawings and will be described in more detail below. Show it:
  • FIG. 1 shows a simplified perspective illustration of the stationary hinge part and of the pivotable hinge part,
  • 2 shows a simplified perspective illustration of the fixed hinge part with the sliding axis running in its guideway,
  • 3 shows a simplified, perspective, partial representation of the pivotable hinge part with the sliding axis running in its guideway, which is acted upon by a torsion spring.

    • FIG. 1 zeigt
    aus Übersichtsgründen eine getrennte vereinfachte perspektivische Darstellung des ortsfesten Scharnierteils (Führungsteil) 2 und des verschwenkbaren Scharnierteils 1. Das ortsfeste Scharnierteils 2 hat einen torrahmen-ähnlichen Aufbau mit zwei parallel zueinander verlaufenden Seitenwänden 10 und 11. Jede Seitenwand weist einen Führungsschlitz (Führungsbahn) 6 . Dieser Führungsschlitz in beiden Seitenwänden dient der Führung einer feder(7)kraftbeaufschlagten Gleitachse (Führungsglied) 4. Die Führungsbahn ist durch einen Wendepunkt W gekennzeichnet. Dieser Wendepunkt bewirkt, daß die feder(7)kraftbeaufschlagte Gleitachse 4 in der Führungsbahn entweder die feste Anschlags-Endposition E1 oder E2 an den Enden der Führungsbahn einnimmt. Durch diese beiden Positionen E1 und E2 sind maximal die Schließ(Zuhalte)-Position und die Öffnungsposition z.B. einer Wartungsklappe bei Flugzeugen bestimmt. Die Stellung des Fübrungsgliedes 4 in der Position E1 oder E2 der Führungsbahn bestimmt die Stellung der Klappe:

    Figure 00030001
    geschlossen oder geöffnet". Die Führungsbahn zeigt vorzugsweise einen stetigen Verlauf, d.h. der Wendepunkt W ist nicht als scharfer Knick ausgebildet, sondern zeigt wie auch die Bahn selbst eine Krümmung. Der Krümmungswert ist im Wendepunkt höher als in den anderen Teilen der Führungsbahn.
    Zwischen den beiden Seitenwänden 10 und 11 ist eine Achse 3 angeordnet. Sie dient als Schwenkachse für das verschwenkbaren Scharnierteil 1 , welches zwischen den Seitenwänden 10 und 11 des ortsfesten Scharnierteiles 2 angeordnet ist. Die Schwenkachse 3 verläuft durch die Bohrungen 7 des Scharnierteiles 1. Sie ist fest mit den Außenwänden 10, 11 des Scharnierteiles 2 verbunden.
    Die Seitenwandungen 12 und 13 des Scharnierteiles 1 weisen einen Führungsschlitz 5 auf, in welchem die Gleitachse 4 verläuft.
    Im zusammengebauten Zustand beider Teile 1 und 2 verläuft die beiden Teilen gemeinsame Gleitachse 4 sowohl im Führungsschlitz 5 des Scharnierteiles 1 als auch im Führungsschlitz 6 des Scharnierteiles 2.
    In dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel weist der Führungsschlitz 6 einen Wendepunkt auf, nicht aber der Führungsschlitz 5 im Scharnierteil 1.FIG. 1 shows
    for reasons of clarity, a separate simplified perspective view of the fixed hinge part (guide part) 2 and the pivotable hinge part 1. The fixed hinge part 2 has a goal frame-like structure with two parallel side walls 10 and 11. Each side wall has a guide slot (guide track) 6. This guide slot in both side walls serves to guide a spring-loaded slide axis (guide member) 4. The guide track is identified by an inflection point W. This turning point causes the spring (7) force-loaded slide axis 4 in the guideway to take either the fixed end stop position E1 or E2 at the ends of the guideway. These two positions E1 and E2 determine at most the closing (locking) position and the opening position, for example of a maintenance flap on aircraft. The position of the guide element 4 in the position E1 or E2 of the guideway determines the position of the flap:
    Figure 00030001
    closed or opened ". The guideway preferably shows a continuous course, ie the turning point W is not designed as a sharp bend, but like the track itself shows a curvature. The curvature value is higher at the turning point than in the other parts of the guideway.
    An axis 3 is arranged between the two side walls 10 and 11. It serves as a pivot axis for the pivotable hinge part 1, which is arranged between the side walls 10 and 11 of the fixed hinge part 2. The pivot axis 3 runs through the bores 7 of the hinge part 1. It is firmly connected to the outer walls 10, 11 of the hinge part 2.
    The side walls 12 and 13 of the hinge part 1 have a guide slot 5, in which the sliding axis 4 runs.
    In the assembled state of both parts 1 and 2, the two parts common sliding axis 4 run both in the guide slot 5 of the hinge part 1 and in the guide slot 6 of the hinge part 2.
    In the exemplary embodiment shown, the guide slot 6 has an inflection point, but not the guide slot 5 in the hinge part 1.

    FIG.2 zeigt
    eine vereinfachte perspektivische Darstellung des ortsfesten Scharnierteils 2 mit der in dessen Führungsbahn 6 verlaufenden Gleitachse 4 . In dieser Darstellung nimmt die Gleitachse 4 die Endposition E1 in der Führungsbahn 6 ein. Aus Übersichtsgründen wurde in dieser Darstellung der verschwenkbare Scharnierteil nur punktiert und auch nur teilweise angedeutet.    FIG.2 shows
    a simplified perspective view of the fixed hinge part 2 with the sliding axis 4 running in its guideway 6. In this illustration, the sliding axis 4 assumes the end position E1 in the guideway 6. For reasons of clarity, the pivotable hinge part was only punctured and only partially indicated in this illustration.

    FIG.3 zeigt
    vereinfachte perspektivische auszugsweise Darstellung des verschwenkbaren Scharnierteils 1 mit der in dessen Führungsbahn 5 verlaufenden Gleitachse 4 . Dier Gleitachse 4 wird von einer auf der Achse 8 angeordneten Torsionsfeder 7 beaufschlagt.
    Die äußeren Enden 7-2 stützen sich derart am verschwenkbaren Scharnierteils 1 ab, daß der mittlere hebelartig ausgeführte Teil 7-1 der Feder die Gleitachse 4 druckbeaufschlagt.    FIG.3 shows
    Simplified perspective partial view of the pivotable hinge part 1 with the slide axis 4 running in its guideway 5. The sliding axis 4 is acted upon by a torsion spring 7 arranged on the axis 8.
    The outer ends 7-2 are supported on the pivotable hinge part 1 in such a way that the middle lever-like part 7-1 of the spring pressurizes the sliding axis 4.

    Die Gleitachse kann auch durch andere Federn, z.B. Druck- oder Zug-Spiral- oder Blattfedern beaufschlagt werden. Eine solche Feder erfüllt die Aufgabe,

  • das schwenkbare Scharnierteil in eine der Endpositionen E1 oder E2 des Führungsschlitzes zu drücken und
  • eine Veränderung dieser Positionen nur gegen die Kraft dieser Feder zu ermöglichen.
    • The sliding axis can also be acted upon by other springs, for example compression or tension spiral or leaf springs. Such a spring fulfills the task
  • to press the pivotable hinge part into one of the end positions E1 or E2 of the guide slot and
  • to allow a change of these positions only against the force of this spring.
