Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an adjustable hinge assembly.
  • Hinges are used for rotatably connecting a hinged body, such as a door, gate or window, to a fixed support, such as a door or window frame or a pole.
  • a hinged body such as a door, gate or window
  • a fixed support such as a door or window frame or a pole.
  • the hinged body When the hinge is installed, the hinged body usually presents an offset with respect to the hinge pin around which it can rotate. It is frequently necessary to adjust this offset to compensate for building and/or manufacturing tolerances. It is also frequently necessary to adjust the position of the hinged body in the direction of the hinge pin. Moreover, it is often necessary to tilt the hinged body forwards or backwards to achieve a completely vertical position. For these purposes, a number of adjustable hinge assemblies have been proposed in the prior art.
  • European patent EP 1 528 202 B1 disclosed another hinge assembly, adjustable in three axes perpendicular to each other. While in this hinge assembly the hinged body cannot be directly lifted out of engagement with the hinge pin, the various screws and nuts holding the hinge assembly together remain accessible from outside even when the hinged body is in a closed position, thus also allowing disassembly by unauthorised persons.
  • the present invention relates to a comparatively inexpensive yet secure adjustable hinge assembly.
  • an adjustable hinge assembly which comprises:
  • the adjustable hinge assembly thus remains secure.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a comparatively inexpensive yet secure adjustable hinge assembly wherein a particularly simple coupling is provided between the second hinge member and the intermediate element and wherein the security of the hinge is further enhanced by preventing in a simple way movement of the hinge pin in said first direction.
  • said hinge pin presents at least one shoulder for engaging a stop for preventing movement of the hinge pin in said first direction. Disassembly of the hinge assembly by moving the hinge pin in the first direction is thus also prevented.
  • said hinge pin may present at least two shoulders opposite to each other. The hinge pin is thus securely locked in both senses in that first direction.
  • Said coupling moreover comprises at least one screw oriented in a third direction substantially perpendicular to both said first and second directions and presenting a screw drive which, when the adjustable hinge assembly is in a closed position, faces the first hinge member.
  • This provides a particularly simple coupling between the second hinge member and the intermediary element, which however, cannot be accessed when the adjustable hinge assembly is in its closed position.
  • Said stop is further formed by an end of said screw opposite to said screw drive. Since the screw is inaccessible when the hinge assembly is in a closed position, this further enhances the security of the hinge.
  • the coupling may comprise at least two parallel screws joining said second hinge member and said intermediary element. It is thus prevented that the second hinge member and the intermediary element may rotate with respect to each other in the plane perpendicular to the screws.
  • said second hinge member and/or said intermediary element present at least one orifice elongated in said second direction for said coupling, so as to allow for the relative adjustment in said second direction.
  • said second hinge member and said intermediary element may present serrated contact surfaces in engagement so as to prevent relative movement between said second hinge member and said intermediary element in said second direction.
  • the coupling pushes these contact surfaces against each other, the positive engagement of the serrated contact surfaces thus locks these two parts with respect to each other.
  • said second hinge member may also comprise a mounting surface substantially perpendicular to said second direction and adjustable in a direction which is substantially perpendicular to both said first and second directions, i.e. substantially in said third direction.
  • the hinge assembly is thus also adjustable in said third direction.
  • said mounting surface of said second hinge member may present at least one elongated orifice for allowing for this adjustment in said third direction.
  • said first hinge member may also comprise a mounting surface which is substantially parallel to the plane defined by said first and second directions when the adjustable hinge assembly is in a closed position and which is adjustable in said first direction.
  • the hinge assembly is thus also adjustable in said first direction.
  • said mounting surface of said second hinge member may present at least one elongated orifice for allowing for this adjustment in said first direction.
  • an embodiment of the adjustable hinge assembly according to the invention may also comprise a lid at least partially covering said first hinge member, and thus normally preventing access to its mounting.
  • FIG. 1a The components of an embodiment of an adjustable hinge assembly according to the invention are illustrated in Fig. 1a .
  • the same adjustable hinge assembly is illustrated in a fully assembled state in Fig. 1 b.
  • This adjustable hinge assembly comprises a first hinge member 6 with a mounting surface having elongated orifices B for adjustably mounting this first hinge member 6 to a support 8, a second hinge member 4 with another mounting surface having elongated orifices A for adjustably mounting this second hinge member 4 to a hinged body, and an intermediary element 5.
  • the second hinge member 4 is fixed to this intermediary element 5 by a coupling formed by two parallel screws 3, the intermediary element 5 being rotatably connected to the first hinge member 6 by a hinge pin 1.
  • the second hinge member 4 can thus rotate around an axis with a first direction X. Since the mounting surface of the second hinge member 4 is perpendicular to a second direction Y perpendicular to the first direction X and the elongated orifices A are elongated in a third direction Z perpendicular to both the first and second directions X, Y, the hinge assembly is adjustable in said third direction Z. Since in the illustrated closed position the mounting surface of the first hinge member 6 is, when the hinge assembly is in its closed position, perpendicular to said third direction Z, and the elongated orifices B in this mounting surface are elongated in said first direction X, the position of the hinge assembly may also be adjusted in said first direction X.
  • the screws 3 joining the second hinge member 4 to the intermediate element 5 go, in said third direction Z, through parallel elongated orifices C in the second hinge member 4 and engage screw threads in orifices C' in the intermediary element 5.
  • the orifices C are elongated in the second direction Y.
  • the adjustable hinge assembly is thus also adjustable in this second direction Y by a distance L, as shown in Figs. 3a and 3b .
  • the opposite contact surfaces of the second hinge member 4 and the intermediary element 5 are serrated, so that, when the screws 3 are tightened, the positive engagement between them locks the relative movement of the second hinge member 4 and the intermediary element 5.
  • each screw 3 opposite to the screw drive 3" reaches into the opening in the intermediary element 5 where the hinge pin 1 is received, and engages a shoulder in the hinge pin 1, restricting its movement in the direction X. As long as the screws 3 stay in position, the hinge pin 1 is thus locked in place.
  • the adjustable hinge assembly also comprises a lid 2 to cover the screws 9 joining them. As illustrated in Fig 5c , this lid 2, which is clicked onto the first hinge member 6, cannot be removed without first removing the hinge pin 5. The mounting of the first hinge member 6 is thus also secure.
  • a method for assembling this adjustable hinge assembly comprises the following steps:
  • the intermediary element 5 is rotatably connected to the first hinge member 6 using the hinge pin 1, which simultaneously blocks the removal of the lid 2.
  • the second hinge member 4 is then connected to the intermediary element 5 using screws 3 going through elongated orifices C before engaging threaded orifices C', and their relative positions in the second direction Y are adjusted before tightening the screws, fixing the second hinge member 4 to the intermediary element 5, and simultaneously, as the extremities 3' engage the shoulders in the hinge pin 1, locking the hinge pin 1 in the first direction X
  • the second hinge member 6 is mounted to the hinged body with its mounting surface against the hinged body 11 using screws 10 going through elongated orifices A.
  • the position of the second hinge member 4 with respect to the hinged body is then adjusted in the third direction Z before tightening the screws 10.
  • all connections of the adjustable hinge assembly are then secure.
  • the second hinge members 6 will for example be mounted first onto the hinged body 11, and the intermediary elements 5 will be fixed to these second hinge members 6, without tightening the screws 3 completely so that the hinge pins 1 can still be inserted into the intermediary elements 5.
  • the hinged body 11 is then suspended to the first hinge members 6, which have already been mounted to the support, by means of the hinge pins 1.
  • the position of the hinged body 11 can then be adjusted by means of the elongated orifices A and C in the second hinge member 4. It is also possible to suspend the hinged body 11 first to the first hinge members 6 without applying the lid 2 so that the vertical position of the first hinge members 6 can first be adjusted with the hinged body suspended thereto.
  • the hinged body can then be removed, the lids 2 applied over the first hinge members and the hinged body suspended again on the first hinge members 6. Adjustment of the hinged body in the second and third directions Y and Z remains always possible in the open position of the hinged body.
  • the hinged body To disassemble the adjustable hinge assembly, the hinged body must first be rotated back into an open position, uncovering the screw drives 3" of the screws 3. When these screws 3 are subsequently at least partially unscrewed, the hinge pin 1 may be removed in said first direction Y, releasing the connection between the hinged body and the support 8. The rest of the adjustable hinge assembly may then be disassembled, releasing the lid 2, and unscrewing screws 3, 9 and 10.
