Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hinge with two hinge parts which can be rotated relative to one another about a common axis of rotation and which consist of hinge heads and fastening pins or plates arranged thereon, wherein the hinge parts are rotatable against each other in a spring-loaded manner by a helical spring inserted between the two hinge parts in the direction of the axis of rotation. and wherein the helical spring is inserted into a guided over both hinge parts, the hinge pin for the mutual rotatability of the hinge parts forming sleeve which has a bore for receiving an end portion of the coil spring on a self-contained end face and against one of the hinge parts against rotation is lockable.
  • Such hinges are usually used where, for example, doors or windows should not remain open, i. a door or a window is also returned to the closed position, if the user does not bring the door or the window itself in the closed position.
  • a known embodiment of the aforementioned type (DE-B-17 59 444) provides that the coil spring receiving sleeve axially parallel extending slots, in which radially engages a locking pin from the outside.
  • the sleeve must be rotated during assembly until a slot is aligned with the locking pin and on the other hand, a hole for insertion of the locking pin must be provided at the relevant point of the hinge part.
  • a connection can of course be solved from the outside.
  • the connection and thus the transmission of forces is concentrated on a single point, namely the system of the locking pin at the one limit of the respective slot.
  • hinges despite spring-loaded design have a small design, otherwise they are hardly usable not only for structural reasons, but also for aesthetic reasons.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a hinge of the type mentioned, in which in a simple manner an optimal connection between the coil spring receiving sleeve and the one hinge part is ensured.
  • the sleeve over a part of its length has an outer contour corresponding to an opening in a hinge part for a rotationally fixed operative connection between the sleeve and this hinge part.
  • the outer contour of the sleeve and the opening in the hinge part for the mutual rotationally fixed connection are made substantially square, wherein ribs or grooves are formed in the corner regions. Accordingly, on the one hand, a simple production of the relevant hinge part, i. the hinge head in question, possible, on the other hand, a fixed rotary joint is created without the two parts to be inserted into each other all around abut each other.
  • a further, advantages with bringing measure is that on the opposite of the sleeve rotatable hinge part against this rotatable, but is fixable to this setting part is used, in which one end portion of the coil spring is held, and that directed against the against the coil spring Region of the setting part is formed an axially freely projecting pin, which engages in the inner region of the coil spring.
  • the other end of the coil spring can be connected to the rotatable on the inserted sleeve hinge part, whereby during the movement of the hinge in the open position a perfect spring action can be effected.
  • the coil spring can thereby not laterally dodge at this end, if the sleeve in this section does not extend directly to the adjustment and out of the setting part projecting pin just in this area ensures that the coil spring is held in the exact axis alignment.
  • the helical spring has at its two ends axially parallel to the axis of rotation between the hinge parts freely projecting end portions, which engage in axially parallel to the axis of rotation aligned bores on the sleeve and on one of the two hinge parts.
  • the hinge shown in Fig. 1 consists of two hinge parts 1 and 2, which are formed from hinge heads 3, 4 and 5 and of these hinge heads 3, 4 and 5 tangentially protruding mounting plates 6 and 7.
  • the hinge head 3 is located between the two hinge heads 4 and 5 of the hinge part 2.
  • a formed from such hinge parts 1 and 2 hinge is used as a result of education with mounting plates 6 and 7, especially where the hinge on top of a door or a frame to be fastened by consciousnesscamende screws.
  • the present hinge is a spring-loaded hinge, i. the two hinge parts 1 and 2 are spring-loaded against each other.
  • the spring load is effected by a helical spring 8 inserted between the hinge parts 1 and 2 in the direction of the axis of rotation.
  • the helical spring 8 is inserted in a sleeve 9 guided over both hinge parts 1 and 2, which at the same time forms the so-called hinge pin.
  • the sleeve 9 is rotationally connected to one of the hinge parts, here with the hinge part 1, connected, and the other hinge part 2 can be rotated by means of the hinge heads 4 and 5 on the sleeve 9.
  • plastic sleeves are optionally additionally used in the hinge heads 4 and 5 to form a kind of sliding bearing.
  • Such a plastic sleeve is also conceivable in the region of the hinge head 3, and at least over a portion of the same length.
  • a bore is formed (not visible in the drawing), which has a diameter approximately corresponding to the cross section of the wire forming the coil spring 8.
  • the one end portion 11 of the coil spring 8 is to be used, so that the one end of the coil spring 8 is rotationally connected to the sleeve 9 remains.
  • the collar side 12 of the adjusting member 13 is also a bore, in which the other end portion 14 of the coil spring 8 can engage formed.
  • the sleeve 9 is provided over part of its length with an outer contour 16 corresponding to an opening 15 in the hinge head 3.
  • the outer contour 16 is executed in its inner region 17 is substantially square, but this surface is still arcuate, as a total of a through hole or a continuous cylinder is present.
  • 9 ribs 18 and in the region of the hinge head 3 corresponding grooves 19 are formed on the sleeve. Thanks to this constructive design can be achieved by simply mating sleeve 9 and hinge head 3 a rotationally fixed operative connection.
  • a hinge member 2 which is rotatable relative to the sleeve 9 but which can be fixed thereto, is inserted on the hinge part 2 which can be rotated relative to the sleeve 9, into which end portion 14 of the coil spring engages.
  • the adjusting part 13 Toward the free end of the hinge part 2, the adjusting part 13 has a key engagement 20.
  • a locking screw not shown in the drawing, the rotationally secure mounting of the adjusting member 13 is accomplished relative to the hinge head 5 and thus relative to the hinge part 2.
  • an axial, cantilevered pin 25 is formed, which engages in the mounting position in the inner region of the coil spring 8. Therefore, even at this end, even with the application of a large torque, a corresponding leadership of the coil spring 8 is present.
  • a bolt-like part 23 is advantageously introduced at this one end 10 and firmly connected to the sleeve 9.
  • the bore for receiving the end portion 11 may be present, so that a relatively large length portion of the end portion 11 can engage in this bore. If then in the region of the end of the bolt-like part 23 from one side of the sleeve 9 ago also still a viewing opening 24 is present, in addition, the threading of the end portion 11 is facilitated in the corresponding bore during assembly of the coil spring 8.
  • the coil spring 8 can be inserted into the sleeve 9, wherein the end portion 11 is inserted into the corresponding bore.
  • the adjusting member 13 is attached to the front of the coil spring 8 and the end portion 14 is inserted into the corresponding bore on the adjusting part 13.
  • the two hinge parts 1 and 2 in the proper position, in which the hinge heads 4 and 5 are aligned with the hinge head 3 in alignment, brought.
  • the outer contour 16 is brought to the sleeve 9 with the corresponding contour in the opening 15 into engagement.
  • the embodiment according to FIG. 2 has the same constructional measures with respect to the mutual spring loading of the two hinge parts 1 and 2, but only two hinge heads 3 and 5 are provided there, which are equipped with corresponding fastening pins 26.
  • the hinge head 3 has at its upper end in the drawing, the necessary for the rotationally effective connection with the sleeve 9 opening, whereas at the lower end of the hinge head 3 and also in the hinge head 5 plastic sleeves can be used as bearing parts.
  • a hinge with mounting posts 26 is normally used in addition to other hinges, i.
  • the mounting pins 26, which are inserted only in accordance with a prepared holes in a frame, a door or a window, can be provided with a smooth surface. Since this used exclusively for the spring action hinge can not fall out of the inserted position and aligns automatically to the other two hinges, it requires no fixed screw or the like.
