Definitions

  • soft stops have been proposed in the form of a spring-loaded stop member which is fixed either to the frame or to the door or window such that when the door or window is closed the kinetic energy is at least partially used to tension spring means co-acting with the stop member, whereby kinetic energy is absorbed in the spring.
  • the same stop member can serve to absorb the rattling movements, thereby reducing the disturbing sound production.
  • the invention relates to a device for absorbing a shock when a movable component, for instance a pivotable panel such as a door, a hatch or a swivel window, or a slidable element such as a sliding window or a drawer, is closed against a fixed component such as a frame edge, and for preventing rattling that results from play between said closed fixed component and said movable component, which device comprises:
  • Such a device is known from e.g. FR-A-2 102516 , DE-U-20010282 and CH-A-245 020 .
  • an excellent fixation of the housing in the hole can be achieved with an embodiment wherein at least the end zone of the outer peripheral surface of the housing adjacent to the rim or the flanged edge has a form widening toward the front side of the housing such that the housing can be received clampingly in the hole.
  • a device can have the special feature that the housing has on its outer surface at least one protrusion which inclines upward from the outer surface in the direction of the opening, has a chosen distance from the widened portion and which, after the housing has been inserted into the hole up to the widened portion, blocks return displacement of the housing.
  • the distance between the or each protrusion acting as barb and the rear surface of the widened portion, for instance the flanged edge, can correspond to, and in particular be a little larger than, the thickness of the panel, which is for instance the front sheet of a steel frame.
  • a variant is therefore recommended in which the outer peripheral surface of the housing has a form widening toward the front side of the housing such that the housing can be received clampingly in the hole present in the frame edge.
  • Fig. 1 shows a part of a frame 1 with a frame edge 2 in which are received two devices 3 to be described hereinbelow.
  • Devices 3 serve to absorb a shock when a pivotable panel (not shown), such as a door, a hatch, or a window, is closed against frame edge 2, and to prevent rattling resulting from play between the closed panel and this frame edge.
  • Fig. 2 also shows that device 3 has a stop element 4 protruding forward outside the frame edge, which stop element 4 has a free end surface 5 which is intended for pressure force-transferring co-action with the panel.
  • stop means to be further described, which determine the free, pressed-outward end position of stop element 4, as drawn in Fig. 1, 2, 4 and 5.
  • Stop element 4 is slidable in longitudinal direction in a substantially cylindrical housing 6 with a cavity for receiving a compression spring 7 (see Fig. 3 and 5), which compression spring 7 presses stop element 4 outward relative to housing 6.
  • the housing is intended for fitting accommodation in a drilled hose 8 arranged for this purpose in frame 1.
  • FIG. 2 shows the detail II of Fig. 1 on larger scale.
  • the devices 3 When the door or the window is closed, through contact between the free end surface 5 of stop element 4 and the door or the window in the final part of the displacement the kinetic energy thereof is at least partially converted into potential energy in compression spring 7, whereby the shock during closure is prevented, or at least substantially reduced.
  • the devices 3 according to the invention prevent further rattling resulting from play in the lock.
  • Fig. 3 shows in exploded, view the three constituent components in a preferred embodiment of the device according to the invention.
  • Housing 6 and stop element 4 are generally cup-shaped elements, wherein stop element 4 fits slidably in housing 6, wherein after assembly the compression spring 7 presses the housing and the stop element apart.
  • Stop element 4 is locked against rotation by the presence of three longitudinal ribs 13 which are arranged peripherally and which co-act with longitudinal grooves 14 in the inner wall of housing 6.
  • the housing has a length corresponding with that of a drilled hole to be arranged in a frame.
  • the drilled hole must have, within quite a close tolerance, the correct length.
  • Fig. 5 clearly shows that in this embodiment the drilled hole 8 can in principle have a random length, since flanged edge 15 defines the correct positioning of housing 6, and thereby of device 3 in drilled hole 8. It will be apparent that drilled hole 8 must have a greater length than the length of the housing measured between its rear face 16 and the rear face 17 of flanged edge 15.
  • Fig. 6 shows a variant of the embodiment of Fig. 4.
  • the housing 26, in addition to being provided with peripheral flanged edge 15, is also provided with a number of, in this case three, peripherally arranged protrusions 18 which incline upward from the outer surface of housing 26 toward the open front side of housing 26.
  • the housing 26 is pressed into the relevant hole, passes over the protrusions 18 through the exertion of a suitable pressing force and finally comes to rest against the front surface of the relevant frame in that the rear surface 17 (see Fig. 5) of flanged edge 15 presses against that surface.
  • the return movement is blocked by the protrusions or cams 18, whereby device 23 is firmly anchored.
  • At least the end zone of the outer surface of the housing adjacent to the rim or the flanged edge displays a small widening with a for instance generally truncated-cone shape.
  • the device can hereby be placed clampingly with force in a prearranged hole by exerting a sufficiently great force and is suitable for receiving in for instance a wooden frame as well as a steel frame whose front panel consists of thin-walled steel sheet.
  • the housing 6 and stop element 4 can be manufactured by injection moulding from the appropriate plastic.
  • Assembly can take place in simple manner by pressing the constituent components into each other in the configuration of Fig. 3.
  • the unbreakable connection between the components is realized by snapping over the stop edges 11, 12.
  • the device consists of only three components which can be easily and cheaply manufactured, whereby the device can be inexpensive, and that the device can be arranged by simply making a drilled hole in a frame, which also makes placing of the device not very time-consuming and inexpensive.
  • the invention thus provides substantial advantages compared to the above documented prior art.
