Abstract
Description
- The present invention concerns a hinge for frames, or items of furniture, with at least two hinging elements, identical to each other and able to be hinged one onto the other so as to articulate a mobile structure, for example the panel of a frame, with respect to a fixed structure of the frame.
- In the field of frames, hinges are known, to articulate the panel of a frame or of a piece of furniture, with respect to a fixed structure, comprising two elements, respectively a male one and a female one.
- The male element is normally fixed to the fixed structure and is provided with a pin, while the female element is normally fixed to the panel and is provided with a seating of shape and sizes mating with those of the pin.
- During normal use, the pin is inserted into the seating allowing the hinging of the two elements.
- The two elements of known hinges therefore consist of two different pieces, which can be made only using different production lines with different molds and treatments and therefore with high costs of production, cataloging and storage.
- From the French patent
FR-A-1.580.417 - Purpose of the present invention is to achieve a hinge for frames, or items of furniture, with at least two hinging elements identical to each other and able to be hinged one onto the other, which can be achieved much more cheaply than known hinges, advantageously by means of a single production line and with one type of mold, reducing cataloging and storage costs and also facilitating installment operations.
- The Applicant has devised, tested and embodied the present invention to overcome the shortcomings of the state of the art and to obtain these and other purposes and advantages.
- The present invention is set forth and characterized in the independent claims, while the dependent claims describe other characteristics of the invention or variants to the main inventive idea.
- In accordance with the above purpose, a hinge according to the present invention comprises at least two hinging elements, identical to each other so that, in order to produce them, it is sufficient to set up a single production line and prepare a single mold, thus reducing not only the production costs, but also the costs of cataloging and storage. The two hinging elements, identical to each other, are able to be hinged one onto the other on a first hinging axis (I).
- In particular, each of the two hinging elements comprises a body, substantially coaxial with said first axis (I), and an attachment shank having a second axis (Y), substantially perpendicular to said first axis (I), so that, when they are hinged together, the two hinging elements define a determinate inter-axis (X) between the two second axes (Y) of the corresponding attachment shanks. Moreover, according to a characteristic feature of the present invention, the body of each hinging element comprises a first part having an internal cavity, coaxial with said first axis (I), which functions as the female part, and a second part, also coaxial with said first axis (I) and having a smaller cross section than that of said first part, which functions as the male part and which has shape and sizes mating with those of said internal cavity, so as to be coupled with the corresponding internal cavity of another of said hinging elements. In particular, the height (H1) of the first part of said body is substantially equal to said inter-axis (X).
- The present invention also conerns each of the two hinging elements of the hinge.
- These and other characteristics of the present invention will become apparent from the following description of a preferential form of embodiment, given as a non-restrictive example with reference to the attached drawings wherein:
- fig. 1 is a longitudinal section of a hinge according to the present invention;
- fig. 2 is a lateral exploded view of the hinge in fig. 1;
- fig. 3 is a plane view of the hinge in fig. 1;
- fig. 4 is a longitudinal section of a first variant of the hinge in fig. 1;
- fig. 5 is a longitudinal section of a second variant of the hinge in fig. 1;
- fig. 6 is a longitudinal section of a third variant of the hinge in fig. 1.
- With reference to fig. 1, a
hinge 10 according to the present invention comprises two hinging elements, a lower one 12 and an upper one 14, identical to each other, which have a hinging axis I. - Each
hinging element 12 and 14 (figs. 1 and 2) comprises abase body 16, substantially coaxial with the hinging axis I, and a threadedshank 18, solid with thebody 16 and having a longitudinal axis Y, substantially orthogonal to the hinging axis I. Each threaded shank 18 (figs. 1, 2 and 3) allows to fix thecorresponding hinging element - It is clear that, as an alternative or in addition to the threaded
shanks 18, plates, or platelets, can be present, which allow to fix the hingingelement - The
base body 16 in turn comprises afirst part 17, for example cylindrical, or shaped like a truncated cone, and having a determinate diameter D1 (figs. 1 and 3), and a second part orpin 22, cylindrical, or shaped like a truncated cone, and having a determinate diameter D2, which is inferior to the diameter D1, so that the cross section of thesecond part 22 is smaller than that of thefirst part 17. - An
internal cavity 20 is made in thefirst part 17 of eachhinging element pin 22 functions as the male part. - The
pin 22 and theinternal cavity 20 have mating shape and sizes, in particular, in this case, thepin 22 has an at least partly cylindrical shape. - The
pin 22 of thelower hinging element 12 is able to be inserted in a rotating manner into theinternal cavity 20 of the upper hingingelement 14 so that the two hingingelements - The height H1 of the
first part 17 of thebody 16 is substantially the same as the distance X, or inter-axis, between the two longitudinal axes Y of the two threadedshanks 18, when the two hingingelements - Moreover, the height H2 of the
second part 22 of thebody 16 is substantially equal to, or less than, the height H1 of thefirst part 17. - In this way, the
hinge 10 according to the present invention can be mounted using templates, or other standard equipment, and is therefore interchangeable with those of a known type. - In addition, advantageously, the longitudinal axis Y of each
attachment shank 18 is substantially equidistant from anexternal shoulder 19 of the first part of thebody 16 and from aninternal shoulder 21 of theinternal cavity 20. - According to a first variant shown in fig. 4, each hinging
element ball 24, or similar contact element, inserted at the end of thepin 22 and able to be disposed in contact with the bottom of theinternal cavity 20 of another hingingelement - According to this first variant, each
pin 22 and eachinternal cavity 20 have a conical shape, in order to allow an easier insertion of the two hingingelements - According to a second variant, shown in fig. 5, each hinging
element ball 26, or similar contact element, inserted inside therespective cavity 20 and able to be disposed in contact with the end of thepin 22 of another hingingelement - According to a third variant, shown in fig. 6, the
external shoulder 19 of each hingingelement first part 17, where thepin 22 starts, whereas theinternal shoulder 21 of theinternal cavity 20 is made inside the same. - It is clear that modifications and/or additions of parts may be made to the
hinge 10 as described heretofore, without departing from the scope of the present invention. - It is also clear that, although the present invention has been described with reference to some specific examples, a person of skill in the art shall certainly be able to achieve many other equivalent forms of hinge for frames, or items of furniture, with at least two hinging elements, having the characteristics as set forth in the claims and hence all coming within the scope of protection defined thereby.
