Description

The invention relates to a furniture fitting, in particular a Furniture hinge, with brake and damping device, after Preamble of the independent claims.

Damping and braking devices are in many Embodiments are known in the art and are described in US Pat used in a wide variety of applications.

Damping elements in the form of are currently for movable furniture parts simple buffers on the market. Such buffers are very suitable for Noise reduction, however, are not suitable for the kinetic energy of the dismantle moving furniture parts in the required amount.

A further development of a deformable, in a hinge Integrated buffers are described in DE-OS 27 08 545. Here will an elastic damping element between the hinge links Furniture hinge arranged and deformed shortly before reaching the Opening position of the hinge.

The AT-PS 349 shows a similar damping element for furniture hinges 931. Here is an elastic damper between the hinge arm and the hinge cup, on which the hinge arm damping supports during its rotational movement.

Also include known hydraulic or pneumatic shock absorbers that have a piston-cylinder arrangement with two working chambers, between which a liquid or gaseous medium flows, the causes a braking and damping effect. Such dampers have one high static friction due to piston rod and piston seals, which limits the size reduction. Furthermore, they are complex and expensive and are therefore not suitable as integrable Dampers in furniture fittings.

With furniture, especially drawers and furniture doors, too brake and damping elements based on friction mostly in Connection used with spring elements. Such braking elements are disclosed in DE 199 15 164 A1 or DE 197 17 937 A1.

These friction brake elements can due to their high static friction so-called stip-slick effect, which is caused by chatter, Stuck etc. of the part to be braked noticeable. Wear also plays a major role in friction dampers, especially when masses with high kinetic energy are decelerated Need to become.

The object of the invention is a furniture fitting, in particular a Furniture hinge, with an integrated braking and damping device propose that is able to move a movable piece of furniture throughout brake the opening or closing process safely and reliably and dampen.

Furthermore, shocks or striking noises are said to occur Closing process can be avoided, i.e. the movable furniture part that may have different mass and speed a certain distance, e.g. the closing angle, almost wear-free decelerate.

This object is achieved according to the invention by the features of the independent claims.

According to the invention is in the area of the hinge cup or Hinge arm at least one movable, indirectly from the articulated lever or directly operable slide provided, the at least one Has sliding surface on an assigned, fixed sliding surface of the furniture hinge slides along, one between the sliding surfaces highly viscous, liquid medium is introduced.

The principle of the invention is that one or more with one, wetted a medium containing a highly viscous liquid Surfaces of a fixed and a movable part of the Braking and damping element after hitting the braked Mass on the moving part by a certain distance are shifted against each other so that the liquid-containing Medium due to its adhesion to the surfaces of an interior Molecular friction exposed and the kinetic energy of the intercepted mass is converted into frictional heat. With the Invention can be done at high speed, manually or by External energy moving, linearly guided or rotating mass in be intercepted in such a way that the kinetic energy of the mass is above a preselectable path and a constructive design Selectable damping characteristic without recoil in predominantly Frictional heat is converted. If desired, the remaining path to a predetermined end stop with a certain, which can be selected by the design, Braking effect with very low static friction without stip-slick effect, optionally supported by spring force.

According to the invention, a between the parts movable to one another Medium used, the coefficient of friction of the speed of the mutually moving parts, d. H. on the speed of the mass to be braked depends. This is achieved through the use of highly viscous media with a viscosity of about ten thousand to reached several million Pa · s.

Because the coefficient of friction at low speeds is low is only a small force after braking the mass, e.g. a spring force, applied to the mass up to one to move the intended end stop.

In a first embodiment of the invention, the slide is on Hinge cup arranged and slidably guided there, the fixed sliding surface through the outer bottom of the hinge cup is formed.

Here, the slide preferably has a cranked leg which, through a breakthrough in the hinge cup into one Driver slot of the articulated lever engages, the slide at one Movement of the articulated lever is carried along.

To protect and guide the slide, the bottom of the Hinge cup advantageously with a covering the slide Provide cover cap.

The fixed sliding surface can alternatively or additionally the inner bottom surface of the cap may be formed.

In order to achieve a higher braking and damping effect, Another embodiment of the invention provides that on the hinge cup or its attachments fixed, lamellar ribs are arranged, in which corresponding, lamellar ribs of the Engage slider so that sliding surfaces are formed between the the highly viscous, liquid medium is introduced. These several Overall, sliding surfaces result in a relatively large surface area the braking effect is increased.

The above fixed ribs can be attached to a separate one Intermediate plate can be arranged on the outside of the pot.

According to a variant of the embodiment described above, the Braking effect can be increased again by an in Direction of movement slit with two converging beveled edges is provided, in which slot an am Wedge-shaped projection arranged on the outer bottom of the hinge cup intervenes. When the slide moves, the projection slides onto the beveled edges along, making the slider perpendicular to the Direction of movement is spread. This spreading leads to one Press the sliding surfaces together.

Another way to increase or adjust the braking effect according to the invention consists in sloping the sliding surface of the slide arrange its direction of movement, with a opposite fixed oblique sliding surface cooperates. A variable gap forms between the sliding surfaces, in which the highly viscous, liquid medium is introduced. The narrower the gap the greater the braking effect, i.e. depending on the position of the hinge and assigned gap width results in a defined braking effect. The fixed, sloping sliding surface is preferably on the inner bottom the cap or a separate plate.

The braking effect is primarily only in the area of the closing angle of the hinge needed. To achieve this, the cranked one grabs Legs preferably only in the area of the closing angle in the Drive slot and is in all other positions of the hinge out of engagement with the drive slot.

For this purpose, the slide is essentially L-shaped in longitudinal section educated.

In a further embodiment of the invention, the slide is in the Hinge arm arranged and slidably guided there, the fixed sliding surface through an inner surface of the hinge arm is formed.

The corresponding slide preferably has one for the articulated lever directed opening in which a drive cam of the articulated lever engages and operates the slide.

Similar to the hinge arm, which is approximately U-shaped in cross-section is formed, the slide can also be U-shaped in cross section be trained. This also applies to the variant in which the Slider is arranged in the hinge cup.

In a third embodiment of the invention, the articulated lever has Area of the hinge arm at least one with this one Axis rotating sliding surface on an associated, fixed Sliding surface of the hinge arm passed along, between the Sliding surfaces a highly viscous, liquid medium is introduced.

This variant dispenses with a linearly moving slide and instead uses a rotating sliding surface of the articulated lever.

In this embodiment, the articulated lever is in the area of the sliding surface essentially U-shaped with two parallel ones spaced apart from one another Sliding surfaces formed on corresponding inner and fixed sliding surfaces of the hinge arm. Surrender two essentially U-shaped interlocking profiles, the The sliding surface is large enough to get a good braking effect.

To further increase the braking effect, it can be provided that the parallel sliding surfaces of the articulated lever by spring force pushed apart and pressed against the inside of the hinge arm become.

An essential aspect of the invention is that the damping and Braking movement over the entire opening and closing area of the Hinge in various damping and braking effects or Damping and braking sections can be divided. For this Controlled damping and braking characteristics are the braking and Damping surfaces of the or the articulated lever and their counter surfaces so changed on the hinge bracket, e.g. through wedge surfaces, recesses etc. that when turning in the opening or closing direction different gap widths result and so the damping and Regulate the braking effect. For example, could damping and braking to Increase the closing end and have no effect on the opening movement show in the manner of a freewheel. Any other damping and The braking effect can be adapted to practical use.

Compared to the known braking and damping devices The invention offers furniture fittings significant advantages.

It can be defined whether the damping and braking effect over the entire closing area or only in a certain closing angle should work.

Furthermore, a very compact design of the furniture fitting is achieved, since no external damping elements are necessary. The braking and Damping device is integrated in the hinge and not from the outside visible.

Overall, the furniture hinge is unchanged on the outside, i.e. it is not Change in design necessary. The size also remains the same.

Furthermore, the adjustment options, e.g. Sides and height adjustment, unchanged. The assembly on the piece of furniture is done as well so far.

Another advantage is that the proposed braking and Damping elements can be manufactured very cheaply and in furniture fittings can be integrated.

FIG. 1 shows a furniture hinge 1 arranged on a furniture body 2, by means of which a piece of furniture 3, e.g. a furniture door, movable on Furniture body is attached. The furniture door 3 can be in the area of a Open the opening angle 4, in the area of a closing angle 5 through the furniture hinge 1 preferably automatically into the closed position is brought. This automatic However, it is important to slow down and dampen the closing movement, as the Otherwise, the furniture door will hit the furniture body hard. This is through the reached braking and damping device according to the invention, the Effective range should preferably be equal to or greater than that Closing angle.

Figure 2 shows a longitudinal section through the furniture hinge 1 in closed state. The furniture hinge is over an outer and an inner articulated lever 7, 9 pivotable with a hinge cup 10 connected. In the area of the outer pan base 11 there is a Slider 13, more precisely the slider is between the bottom of the pot bottom and the inner surface of a cap 15 out.

The slide 13 engages with a bent against the interior of the pot Leg 14 through an opening 12 in the pot base 11 in one Driving slot 8 in the outer articulated lever 7. Between the themselves opposite surfaces of the slide 13 and the surfaces of the Pot bottom 11 or the cover cap 15 is a highly viscous Medium 16 with high internal molecular friction.

Figure 3 shows in longitudinal section the furniture hinge of Figure 2 in part open position. The hinge cup 10 is located near the Closing angle end. In this position the braking and Damping element to act by the leg 14 of the slider 13 in engages the driver slot 8 of the outer articulated lever 7. At a Movement of the hinge cup 10 in the direction of arrow 17, i.e. at the Passing through the closing angle range, the rotary movement of the outer articulated lever 7 in a guided, extending in the direction of arrow 18 Linear movement of the slide 13 with a certain damping and Braking distance implemented.

FIG. 4 shows in longitudinal section the furniture hinge 1 with a slide 19 in a modified embodiment. The slide 19 is compared to the figures 2 and 3 overall longer, so that there is a increased braking effect due to increased sliding surfaces.

Figure 5 shows the furniture hinge 1 in longitudinal section. Unlike the Figures 2, 3 or 4, the slide 13 is not coupled here on the outer 20 but on the inner articulated lever 21, the one for this has corresponding driving slot 22.

Figure 6 shows a furniture hinge 1 in longitudinal section with a coupling of the slide 23 on the outer articulated lever 7 as in FIGS. 2 and 3 shown. In contrast to the slide 13 of Figures 2 and 3, the Slider 23 larger sliding surfaces.

For this purpose, the slide has 23 on both sides against the screw-on plate 25 of the hinge cup and parallel to the hinge cup surfaces lamellar ribs 24, as can be seen from FIGS. 7, 8 and 10. An intermediate plate 26 is provided on the pot side (FIG. 9), which is inserted into the screw-on plate 25 and carries fixed, lamellar ribs 27. The ribs 24 of the slide 23 engage in the spaces between the ribs 27 of the intermediate plate 26 and slide into one another when the slide 23 moves in the direction of arrow 29. As described, there is a highly viscous medium between the fixed and sliding rib surfaces 24, 27 and the bottom surface. The assembled arrangement is shown in perspective in FIG.
The area size and the number of ribs or rib surfaces determine the braking and / or damping effect.

The intermediate plate 26 and the slide 23 can be stamped from metal, cast or injection molded from plastic.

The intermediate plate 26 with the ribs 27 need not be provided. The Ribs 27 can also be made in one piece on the screw-on plate 25 or Hinge cup 19 may be formed.

Figures 11 to 16 show a variant of the embodiment according to the Figures 6 to 10. Both versions have in common the enlarged Damping and braking surfaces through the intermeshing ribs 24, 27 and the coupling of the slide 23 to the outer articulated lever 7, i.e. the deflection of the rotary movement of the joint 7 in one Linear movement of the slide 23.

An additional effect results from the interaction of an am Pot bottom 11 located wedge-shaped projection 30 with oblique Edges 32 of a slot 31 in the slide 23. The projection 30 engages in the slot 31. Before reaching the closed position, the Wedge surfaces of the pot-tight projection 30 along the oblique edges 32 of the narrowing slider slot 31. As a result, the slider 23 pushed apart in the direction of arrow 33 so that the outward standing ribs 24 of the slider 23 more strongly on the counter surfaces of the stationary ribs 27 are pressed and thus the brake damping effect strengthen.

Figure 17 shows a longitudinal section through the furniture hinge 1 with a special slide 34, with a coupling to the inner 9 or outer Articulated lever 7, as known from the preceding figures. It is essential here the special shape of the slider 34. As in previous figures described, this slides with its pot-side sliding surface on the Pot bottom 11 along and is thereby from the between the Medium 16 is damped and braked. The other Side of the slide is formed with an inclined sliding surface 35. There is no one opposite this inclined sliding surface 35 Slidable plate 37. The plate is in the cap 15 recorded and with an inclined sliding surface 35 of the slide 34 parallel inclined sliding surface 38 provided. In the open state of the Hinge, as shown in Figure 18, these two are parallel Inclined surfaces 35, 38 from each other through a relatively large gap 39 separated, the highly viscous medium 16 in the gap being less is effective. The damping and braking effect is determined by the selected fit, i.e. by the width of the gap 39 between Slider 34 and plate 37. With the closing movement of the hinge (Figure 17) the slide 34 moves in the direction of arrow 18, so that from the inclined surfaces 35, 38 towards each other at a certain closing angle come and the pressure in the medium 16 to the closing point increase. This is an increasing damping and braking effect reached.

19 shows in longitudinal section and FIG. 20 shows in section AA according to FIG. 19 a further embodiment of an integrated damping and braking device for furniture fittings, in particular again for a furniture hinge 1. In this embodiment, no linearly movable slide is used.
In this embodiment, the damping and braking surfaces (sliding surfaces) are located on both sides of the hinge arm-side mounting of the inner articulated lever 42. The inner articulated lever 42 is U-shaped in this bearing area in such a way that its outer surfaces 43 of both parallel legs are as large as possible and a sliding fit form with the inner surfaces 41 of the parallel legs 40 of the hinge arm 6. The damping and braking medium 16 is located between the surfaces 43 of the articulated lever 42 and the surfaces 41 of the hinge arm 6. According to the invention, these damping and braking surfaces can also be present at the other bearing points of the articulated lever, that is to say also on the outer joint 7 ,

In such an embodiment there is no coupling between one the articulated lever and a damping brake valve are necessary, this works the damping and braking on the entire opening and Closing area of the hinge if desired.

FIGS. 21 and 22 show another embodiment of one in the hinge 1 brake and invisible from the outside Damping devices. A joint, e.g. as shown the Inner joint 44, displaced by means of at least one driver cam 45 a slider 46 which on the underside (inside) of the horizontal leg of a hinge arm 6 is slidably guided. The Driver cam 45 engages in an opening 47 of slide 46 for this purpose and implements a rotary movement of the articulated lever 44 in the direction of arrow 50 the axis 49 in a linear movement of the slide 46 in the direction of arrow 51 around. For guidance and as a counter bearing for the slide 46 are Guide tabs 48 etc. from the side walls of the hinge arm 6 pushed out. The damping and braking medium 16 is located between the sliding surfaces of slide 46 and hinge arm 6.

Figures 23, 24 and 25 show the hinge according to Figures 21 and 22 with modified slide 46 with increased damping and Braking surfaces. From FIG. 24 in particular it can be seen that this purpose, the damping and brake slide 46 U-shaped Interior of the hinge arm 6 is adjusted and large side legs having, between the outer surfaces of the side legs 52 and the inner surfaces of the hinge arm 6 also a highly viscous Brake and damping medium 16 is introduced.
