Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein HaushaltsgerƤt, insbesondere einen Garofen gemƤƟ dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The present invention relates to a household appliance, in particular a cooking oven according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Aus der Druckschrift DE103 60 386 ist ein gattungsgemƤƟer Garofen bekannt, bei dem eine TĆ¼r zum VerschlieƟen der Beschickungsƶffnung wenigstens zwei TrƤgerelemente umfasst, die jeweils Ć¼ber einen Verbindungsflansch mit der AuƟenscheibe verbunden sind. Senkrecht zur AuƟenscheibe nach innen erstrecken sich vom Verbindungsflansch weg Scheibenhalteteile, die an den einander zugewandten Innenseiten jeweils Aufnahmenuten fĆ¼r weitere TĆ¼rscheiben aufweisen. Die Aufnahmenuten sind an einer Seite, in der Regel der Unterseite mit einem AbstĆ¼tzteil abgeschlossen. An den von den einander zugewandten Innenseiten mit den Aufnahmenuten der Scheibenhalteteile abgewandten AuƟenseiten ist jeweils ein Aufnahmekanal angeformt. Auf der gleichen Hƶhe wie die AbstĆ¼tzteile mĆ¼nden die AufnahmekanƤle in jeweils einer rechteckigen Aufnahmeƶffnung, die zur Aufnahme eines zweiten Scharnierteils jeweils eines TĆ¼rscharniers vorgesehen ist.From the publication DE10360386 a generic cooking oven is known in which a door for closing the loading opening comprises at least two support elements, which are each connected via a connecting flange with the outer pane. Perpendicular to the outer pane extending inwardly from the connecting flange away disk holding parts, which each have receiving grooves for further door windows on the facing inner sides. The grooves are closed on one side, usually the bottom with a support part. At the side facing away from the mutually facing inner sides with the receiving grooves of the disc holding parts outer sides of a receiving channel is formed in each case. At the same height as the support members open the receiving channels in each case a rectangular receiving opening which is provided for receiving a second hinge part of a respective door hinge.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine gegenĆ¼ber dem Stand der Technik verbesserte Scharniervorrichtung fĆ¼r ein HaushaltsgerƤt zu schaffen.The invention has for its object to provide a comparison with the prior art improved hinge device for a household appliance.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein HaushaltsgerƤt mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelƶst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind den UnteransprĆ¼chen einzeln oder in Kombination zu entnehmen.This object is achieved by a household appliance having the features of patent claim 1. Advantageous embodiments are given in the dependent claims individually or in combination.

GemƤƟ dem kennzeichnenden Teil des Patentanspruches 1 ist das ScharniergehƤuse in einer, Ć¼ber die Scharniervorrichtung relativ zur ersten Komponente beweglich angeordneten, zweiten Komponente des HaushaltsgerƤtes werkzeuglos montierbar und/oder demontierbar. Dabei ist insbesondere unter der ersten Komponente die TĆ¼r und unter der zweiten Komponente das HaushaltsgerƤt ohne TĆ¼r oder umgekehrt zu verstehen. Durch eine derartige, werkzeuglose Demontierbarkeit ist beispielsweise eine Grundlage zur einfachen NachrĆ¼stung eines DƤmpfers geschaffen.According to the characterizing part of claim 1, the hinge housing in a, on the hinge device relative to the first component movably arranged, second component of the household appliance can be mounted without tools and / or disassembled. In this case, in particular the first component is the door and the second component is the household appliance without a door or vice versa. By such, tool-free disassembly, for example, a basis for easy retrofitting of a damper is created.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung ist das ScharniergehƤuse in ein Scharnierelager einschiebbar. Durch Einschieben bzw. Herausziehen ist das ScharniergehƤuse in einfacher, sinnfƤlliger Weise montierbar, bzw. demontierbar.In a preferred embodiment, the hinge housing can be inserted into a hinge bearing. By inserting or removing the hinge housing is mounted in a simple, obvious way, or disassembled.

Vorzugsweise hƤlt ein elastisches Element das ScharniergehƤuse in einer Arbeitsposition innerhalb des Scharnierlagers. Dies ermƶglicht eine Fixierung des eingeschobenen ScharniergehƤuses innerhalb des Scharnierlagers ebenso wie eine werkzeuglose Entnahme des ScharniergehƤuses durch Ɯberwinden einer durch das elastische Element auf das ScharniergehƤuse aufgebrachten Kraft.Preferably, a resilient member holds the hinge housing in a working position within the hinge bearing. This allows a fixation of the inserted hinge housing within the hinge bearing as well as a tool-free removal of the hinge housing by overcoming a force applied by the elastic member to the hinge housing force.

Das elastische Element ist derart angeordnet, dass es das ScharniergehƤuse mit einer definierten Kraft nach unten drĆ¼ckt. Bei einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Scharniervorrichtung wird beim Ɩffnen der TĆ¼r das ScharniergehƤuse gegenĆ¼ber dem Scharnierlager angehoben. Dadurch wird beim Ɩffnen der TĆ¼r diese selbst angehoben und somit die Realisierung enger SpaltmaƟe zwischen der TĆ¼r und angrenzenden Mƶbeln ermƶglicht. Bei einer derartigen Ausbildung hat das elastische Element zusƤtzlich zur Rastfunktion eine RĆ¼ckstellfunktion fĆ¼r das angehobene ScharniergehƤuse.The elastic element is arranged such that it presses down the hinge housing with a defined force. In an advantageous embodiment of the hinge device when opening the door, the hinge housing is raised relative to the hinge bearing. As a result, when the door is opened, it raises the door itself and thus allows the realization of narrow gaps between the door and adjacent furniture. With such a design, the elastic element in addition to the locking function has a reset function for the raised hinge housing.

Indem das elastische Element im Wesentlichen als Blattfeder ausgebildet ist, ist es kostengĆ¼nstig herstellbar und zudem leicht an vorhandene Geometrien anpassbar. So kann die Blattfeder an ihrem Ende noch eine taschenartige Biegung aufweisen, Ć¼ber die sie durch Aufstecken am Scharnierlager befestigbar ist.By the elastic element is formed substantially as a leaf spring, it is inexpensive to produce and also easily adaptable to existing geometries. Thus, the leaf spring may still have a pocket-like bend at its end, over which it can be fastened by attaching to the hinge bearing.

Bevorzugt ist es, wenn das Scharnierlager und das ScharniergehƤuse miteinander korrespondierende Befestigungselemente aufweisen, durch die beim Montieren des ScharniergehƤuses dieses mit dem Scharnierlager Ć¼ber das elastische Element lƶsbar in einer Arbeitsposition verrastet.It is preferred if the hinge bearing and the hinge housing have mutually corresponding fastening elements by which when mounting the hinge housing this with the hinge bearing via the elastic element releasably locked in a working position.

In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sind die korrespondierenden Befestigungselemente als ein im ScharniergehƤuse angeordnetes FĆ¼hrungselement und eine im Scharnierlager angeordnete Kulisse ausgebildet. Dadurch wird das ScharniergehƤuse beim Einschieben in das Scharnierlager beispielsweise angehoben, wodurch das elastische Element vorgespannt wird. Durch weiteres Einschieben wird Ć¼ber die Bewegung des FĆ¼hrungselementes in der Kulisse das ScharniergehƤuse wieder abgesenkt. Das elastische Element entspannt sich und das ScharniergehƤuse wird in einer durch die Kulissenform vorgegeben Arbeitsposition gehalten.In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the corresponding fastening elements are designed as a guide element arranged in the hinge housing and a gate arranged in the hinge bearing. As a result, the hinge housing is lifted when inserted into the hinge bearing, for example, whereby the elastic element is biased. By further insertion is on the movement of the guide element in the backdrop, the hinge housing again lowered. The elastic element relaxes and the hinge housing is held in a predetermined by the gate shape working position.

Zur Vereinfachung ist das FĆ¼hrungselement im ScharniergehƤuse als eine Lagerstelle eines in Richtung einer Gewichtsausgleichsfeder beweglichen Spannhebels ausgebildet. So kann das FĆ¼hrungselement als verlƤngerte Achse ausgebildet sein, die eine Bewegung des Spannhebels fĆ¼hrt. Da eine FĆ¼hrung des Spannhebels Ć¼blicherweise ohnehin notwendig ist, ergibt sich die Einsparung eines extra Teiles.For simplicity, the guide element is formed in the hinge housing as a bearing point of a movable in the direction of a counterbalance spring clamping lever. Thus, the guide element may be formed as an extended axis, which leads to a movement of the clamping lever. Since a guide of the clamping lever is usually necessary anyway, there is the saving of an extra part.

In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung wird vorgeschlagen, dass die Kulisse derart ausgebildet ist, dass sie sich in LƤngsrichtung des Scharnierlagers erstreckt und dabei ein Plateau aufweist, das gegenĆ¼ber zumindest einem der Endbereiche erhƶht angeordnet ist. Aufgrund des erhƶht angeordneten Plateaus und den dadurch tiefer liegenden Endbereichen der Kulisse ergibt sich eine Rastfunktion des ScharniergehƤuses innerhalb des Scharnierlagers in einer Arbeitsposition. DarĆ¼ber hinaus sind durch die Ausbildung des Plateaus in seiner Hƶhe und LƤnge bezĆ¼glich der Kulisse die EinschubkrƤfte bzw. die EntnahmekrƤfte des ScharniergehƤuses aus dem Scharnierlager festlegbar.In a further embodiment, it is proposed that the slide is designed such that it extends in the longitudinal direction of the hinge bearing and thereby has a plateau, which is arranged elevated relative to at least one of the end regions. Due to the elevated plateau and thus lower lying end portions of the backdrop, a locking function of the hinge housing within the hinge bearing results in a working position. In addition, the insertion forces and the removal forces of the hinge housing from the hinge bearing can be fixed by the formation of the plateau in its height and length with respect to the backdrop.

Um eine durch das FĆ¼hrungselement verursachte Schwenkbewegung des ScharniergehƤuses beim Einschieben in das Scharnierlager zu ermƶglichen, ist die lichte Weite einer Einschubƶffnung entsprechend vergrĆ¶ĆŸert. Insbesondere ist die lichte Weite entgegen der Richtung einer vom elastischen Element auf das ScharniergehƤuse wirkenden Kraft vergrĆ¶ĆŸert. DrĆ¼ckt das elastische Element beispielsweise das ScharniergehƤuse nach unten, so ist die lichte Weite der Einschubƶffnung nach oben hin erweitert. Zudem weist die Einschubƶffnung parallel zu einer LƤngserstreckung des FĆ¼hrungselementes eine Verbreiterung auf, die ein EinfĆ¼hren des FĆ¼hrungselementes in die Kulisse ermƶglicht.In order to allow a pivoting movement of the hinge housing caused by the guide element when inserted into the hinge bearing, the inside width of an insertion opening is increased accordingly. In particular, the clear width is increased counter to the direction of a force acting on the hinge housing by the elastic force. Presses the elastic element, for example, the hinge housing down, the clear width of the insertion opening is extended upward. In addition, the insertion opening has a widening parallel to a longitudinal extension of the guide element, which allows insertion of the guide element in the backdrop.

Vorzugsweise weisen das ScharniergehƤuse und das Scharnierlager jeweils an ihren der TĆ¼r abgewandten Endabschnitten miteinander korrespondierende Elemente auf, die in einer Arbeitsposition des ScharniergehƤuses formschlĆ¼ssig miteinander im Eingriff sind. Das Element am Scharnierlager kann beispielsweise als ein von der Seitenwand ausgestellter Lappen ausgebildet sein, der in eine entsprechende Ausklinkung des ScharniergehƤuses eingreift. Alternativ ist die Halterung einer Gewichtsausgleichsfeder als verlƤngerte Lagerachse ausgebildet, die in korrespondierende DurchbrĆ¼che am Scharnierlager eingreift, wobei der Eingriff kurz vor Erreichen der Arbeitsstellung des ScharniergehƤuses erfolgt.Preferably, the hinge housing and the hinge bearing each have at their end portions facing away from the door with each other corresponding elements which are positively in engagement with each other in a working position of the hinge housing. The element on the hinge bearing can be designed, for example, as a flap issued by the side wall, which engages in a corresponding notch of the hinge housing.

In Fig. 1 ist ein HaushaltsgerƤt mit einer Ć¼ber eine Scharniervorrichtung schwenkbar gelagerten TĆ¼r 2 gezeigt, in der beidseitig jeweils ein Schwert 6 der Scharniervorrichtung gelagert ist. Das HaushaltsgerƤt ist nach auƟen durch einen Korpus 8 begrenzt, der zwei SeitenwƤnde, einen Boden, eine Decke, eine RĆ¼ckwand und einen Flansch 10 aufweist. Die Schwerter 6 tauchen jeweils durch eine Aufnahmeƶffnung 4 im Flansch 10 durch und sind in der TĆ¼r 2 lƶsbar gehalten.In Fig. 1 is a domestic appliance with a pivotally mounted on a hinge device door 2 shown in the both sides each have a sword 6 of the hinge device is mounted. The household appliance is limited to the outside by a body 8 having two side walls, a bottom, a ceiling, a rear wall and a flange 10. The swords 6 respectively penetrate through a receiving opening 4 in the flange 10 and are releasably held in the door 2.

Innerhalb des Korpus 8, im Wesentlichen hinter dem Flansch 10, sind zwei identisch ausgebildete ScharniergehƤuse 12 (Fig. 2) angeordnet. Die ScharniergehƤuse 12 sind in Ihrer LƤngsrichtung 1 im Wesentlichen waagrecht im Korpus 8 angeordnet. Das ScharniergehƤuse 12 weist SeitenwƤnde 14 auf, in denen tĆ¼rseitig eine Scharnierachse 16 befestigt ist. Das Schwert 6 ist durch die Scharnierachse 16 drehbar gegenĆ¼ber dem ScharniergehƤuse 12 gelagert. Das ScharniergehƤuse 12 ist innerhalb des Korpus 8 in einem Scharnierlager 18 befestigt. In Richtung der TĆ¼r 2 weist das Scharnierlager 18 eine Einschubƶffnung 20 fĆ¼r das ScharniergehƤuse 12 auf. Die Einschubƶffnung 20 weist gegenĆ¼ber dem angrenzenden Bereich des Scharnierlagers 18 eine grĆ¶ĆŸere Breite b auf. Das ScharniergehƤuse 12 ist tĆ¼rseitig Ć¼ber die Einschubƶffnung 20 in das Scharnierlager 18 einschiebbar und verrastet in einer Endposition mit dem Scharnierlager 18. In einem der Einschubƶffnung 20 gegenĆ¼berliegenden, hinteren Abschnitt des Scharnierlagers 18 sind gegenĆ¼berliegend an den beiden SeitenflƤchen ausgebildete DurchbrĆ¼che 21 angeordnet. Diese sind nahe einer Unterseite 24 des Scharnierlagers 18 angeordnet und bilden eine Aufnahme fĆ¼r die Lagerachse 22. Ist die Lagerachse 22 mit den DurchbrĆ¼chen 21 in Eingriff, dann ist dadurch das ScharniergehƤuse 12 im Scharnierlager 18 schwenkbar gelagert. Ein FĆ¼hrungselement 26 ist als eine, parallel zur Scharnierachse 16 verlaufende Achse ausgebildet, die in zwei gegenĆ¼berliegend angeordneten Schlitzen 28 der SeitenwƤnde 14 des ScharniergehƤuses 12 verschiebbar gelagert ist. Das FĆ¼hrungselement 26 ragt Ć¼ber die SeitenwƤnde 14 des ScharniergehƤuses 12 hinaus und stĆ¼tzt sich dadurch in einer Kulisse 30 des Scharnierlagers 18 ab. Die Kulisse 30 weist mittig ein Plateau 32 auf, das den grĆ¶ĆŸten Abstand der Kulisse 30 zur Unterseite 24 des Scharnierlagers 18 bildet. Ein elastisches Element 34, das oberhalb der Einschubƶffnung 20 am Scharnierlager 18 angeordnet ist, wirkt auf das ScharniergehƤuse 12 und drĆ¼ckt dieses mit einer Kraft F in Richtung der Unterseite 24. Das elastische Element 34 ist in Form einer doppelzĆ¼ngigen Blattfeder ausgebildet. Das ScharniergehƤuse 12 ist bei geschlossener TĆ¼r 2 Ć¼ber die Lagerachse 22 und Ć¼ber das elastische Element 34 in seiner Endposition gehalten. Das ScharniergehƤuse 12 ist entgegen der Federkraft des elastischen Elements 34 aus dem Scharnierlager 18 tĆ¼rseitig herausziehbar. Dabei gleitet das FĆ¼hrungselement 26 von seiner Endlage Ć¼ber das Plateau 32 und deformiert dabei das elastische Element 34. Nach dem Plateau 32 fĆ¼hrt die Kulisse 30 das FĆ¼hrungselement 26, unterstĆ¼tzt durch das elastische Element 34, wieder in Richtung Unterseite 24. In diesem Abschnitt der Kulisse 30 ist die Breite b des Scharnierlagers grĆ¶ĆŸer, wodurch das FĆ¼hrungselement 26 aus der Kulisse 30 gleitet, und das ScharniergehƤuse 12 dadurch in Richtung der TĆ¼r 2 entnehmbar ist. An einem der TĆ¼r 2 gegenĆ¼berliegenden Endbereich des Scharnierlagers 18 ist ein DƤmpfer 72 Ć¼ber ein Rastelement 74 befestigt. Das Rastelement 74 greift in eine Aussparung 78 des Scharnierlagers 18 ein. Rastelement 74 und Aussparung 78 sind derart ausgebildet, dass der DƤmpfer 72 werkzeuglos montierbar ist.Within the body 8, substantially behind the flange 10, there are two identically formed hinge housings 12 (FIG. Fig. 2 ) arranged. The hinge housings 12 are arranged substantially horizontally in the body 8 in their longitudinal direction 1. The hinge housing 12 has side walls 14 in which a hinge axis 16 is fixed on the door side. The sword 6 is rotatably supported by the hinge axis 16 relative to the hinge housing 12. The hinge housing 12 is mounted within the body 8 in a hinge bearing 18. Towards the door 2, the hinge bearing 18 has an insertion opening 20 for the hinge housing 12. The insertion opening 20 has opposite the adjacent region of the hinge bearing 18 on a larger width b. The hinge housing 12 is the door side via the insertion opening 20 into the hinge bearing 18 and inserted into an end position with the hinge bearing 18. In one of the insertion opening 20 opposite, the rear portion of the hinge bearing 18 opposite openings 21 formed on the two side surfaces are arranged. These are arranged near a bottom 24 of the hinge bearing 18 and form a receptacle for the bearing axis 22. If the bearing shaft 22 with the openings 21 in engagement, then the hinge housing 12 is pivotally mounted in the hinge bearing 18. A guide member 26 is formed as a, parallel to the hinge axis 16 extending axis, which is slidably mounted in two oppositely disposed slots 28 of the side walls 14 of the hinge housing 12. The guide element 26 protrudes beyond the side walls 14 of the hinge housing 12 and is thereby supported in a slot 30 of the hinge bearing 18. The gate 30 has a middle plateau 32, which forms the largest distance of the link 30 to the bottom 24 of the hinge bearing 18. An elastic element 34, which is arranged above the insertion opening 20 on the hinge bearing 18, acts on the hinge housing 12 and presses this with a force F in the direction of the underside 24. The elastic element 34 is in the form of a double-tongued leaf spring. The hinge housing 12 is held with the door closed 2 on the bearing axis 22 and the elastic member 34 in its final position. The hinge housing 12 can be pulled out of the hinge bearing 18 against the spring force of the elastic element 34 on the door side. In this case, the guide member 26 slides from its end position over the plateau 32 and thereby deforms the elastic member 34. After the plateau 32, the link 30 guides the guide member 26, supported by the elastic member 34, again towards the bottom 24. In this section of the scenery 30, the width b of the hinge bearing is larger, causing the guide member 26 slides out of the link 30, and the hinge housing 12 is thereby removed in the direction of the door 2. On a door 2 opposite end portion of the hinge bearing 18, a damper 72 is attached via a locking element 74. The latching element 74 engages in a recess 78 of the hinge bearing 18 a. Locking element 74 and recess 78 are formed such that the damper 72 is mounted without tools.

In Fig. 3 ist eine Aufnahme 36 der TĆ¼r 2 dargestellt, in der das Schwert 6 gelagert ist. Ein Spannhebel 38 ist Ć¼ber ein von der Scharnierachse 16 beabstandetes Spannhebellager 40 an das Schwert 6 gekoppelt. Bei einer Schwenkbewegung der TĆ¼r 2 lƤuft das bei geschlossener TĆ¼r 2 rechts von der Scharnierachse 16 angeordnete Spannhebellager 40 in einer Kreisbewegung um die Scharnierachse 16. Der Spannhebel 38 ist mit einer Gewichtsausgleichsfeder 42 gekoppelt. Diese bildet eine Gegenkraft zum Gewicht der TĆ¼r 2, wodurch ein komfortables Ɩffnen und SchlieƟen der TĆ¼r 2 gewƤhrleistet ist. Die Gewichtsausgleichsfeder 42 ist Ć¼ber eine als Loch ausgebildete Federaufnahme 46 in einem Verstellhebel 48 gehalten. Der Verstellhebel 48 ist Ć¼ber ein Verstellhebellager 50 drehbar am Spannhebel 38 gelagert. Ein Ende des Verstellhebels 48 ragt aus dem ScharniergehƤuse 12 nach oben heraus und taucht zwischen den beiden Zungen des elastischen Elements 34 durch. An diesem Ende ist ein Justierelement 52 Ć¼ber ein Spannelement 54 gelagert. Das Spannelement 54 ist im Wesentlichen als eine Mutter ausgebildet, in die ein am Justierelement 52 ausgeprƤgtes Gewinde (nicht gezeigt) eingreift. Das Spannelement 54 ist drehbar am Verstellhebel 48 gelagert, um eine Schwenkbewegung des Justierelementes 52 zu ermƶglichen. Das als Schraube ausgebildete Justierelement 52 dient zum Einstellen einer Federvorspannung der Gewichtsausgleichsfeder 42. Ɯber ein Loslager 56 ist das Justierelement 52 mit seinem tĆ¼rseitigen Ende an den Spannhebel 38 derart angebunden, dass das Justierelement 52 drehbar gelagert ist. Beim Ɩffnen der TĆ¼r 2 lƤuft das Spannhebellager 40 in einer Kreisbewegung um die Scharnierachse 16, wobei zunƤchst der Spannhebel 38 im Wesentlichen angehoben wird. Durch das Anheben des Spannhebels 38 wird Ć¼ber das Loslager 56 auch das als Schraube ausgebildete Justierelement 52 tĆ¼rseitig angehoben. Der tĆ¼rseitig angeordnete Schraubenantrieb (Schlitz) des Justierelements 52 ist durch das Anheben frei zugƤnglich fĆ¼r einen Schraubendreher, wodurch eine Federvorspannung der Gewichtsausgleichsfeder 42 einstellbar ist. Ein Riegel 58 ist beweglich am Schwert 6 gelagert und bildet eine Lagerstelle fĆ¼r einen beweglichen Hebel 60. Riegel 58 und Hebel 60 sind derart ausklappbar, dass sich der Hebel 60 beim SchlieƟen der TĆ¼r 2 an einer Rolle 62 abstĆ¼tzt und dadurch ein weiteres SchlieƟen der TĆ¼r 2 verhindert. Eine zuziehende Kraft der Gewichtsausgleichsfeder 42 auf die TĆ¼r 2 wird dadurch abgefangen. Die TĆ¼r 2 kann in diesem Zustand fĆ¼r Reinigungszwecke werkzeuglos entnommen werden, indem die Schwerter 6 aus ihren Aufnahmen 36 gezogen werden. Durch Einschieben der Schwerter 6 in die Aufnahmen 36 ist die TĆ¼r 2 wieder montierbar. Wird die TĆ¼r 2 etwas weiter geƶffnet, werden der Hebel 60 und der Riegel 58 frei und sind einklappbar. Die TĆ¼r 2 ist jetzt wieder vollstƤndig schlieƟbar. Die Rolle 62 ist an einem BĆ¼gel 64 befestigt, der Ć¼ber den Drehpunkt 66 drehbar am Spannhebel 38 gelagert ist. Der BĆ¼gel 64 bildet eine Lagerstelle fĆ¼r eine Druckfeder 68, die mit ihrem gegenĆ¼berliegenden Ende am Spannhebel 38 gehalten ist. Das Schwert 6 weist nahe der Scharnierachse 16 eine Anlagekontur 70 auf, die derart ausgebildet ist, dass sie bei einem Ɩffnungswinkel Ī± von ca. 25Ā° die SchlieƟbewegung der TĆ¼r 2 durch Anlage an der Rolle 62 stoppt. Zum weiteren SchlieƟen der TĆ¼r 2 wird diese entgegen der Federkraft der Druckfeder 68 weiter zugedrĆ¼ckt. Die Anlagekontur 70 ist derart ausgebildet, dass nahe der SchlieƟstellung der TĆ¼r 2 Ć¼ber die Druckfeder 68 eine zusƤtzliche Kraft in Richtung SchlieƟstellung auf die TĆ¼r 2 ausĆ¼bt wird.In Fig. 3 a receptacle 36 of the door 2 is shown, in which the sword 6 is mounted. A clamping lever 38 is spaced from the hinge axis 16 Spannhebellager 40 coupled to the sword 6. During a pivoting movement of the door 2, the clamping lever bearing 40 arranged to the right of the hinge axis 16 when the door 2 is closed runs in a circular movement about the hinge axis 16. The tensioning lever 38 is coupled to a weight compensating spring 42. This forms a counterforce to the weight of the door 2, whereby a comfortable opening and closing of the door 2 is ensured. The weight compensation spring 42 is held in an adjusting lever 48 via a spring receptacle 46 designed as a hole. The adjusting lever 48 is rotatably mounted on the clamping lever 38 via an adjusting lever bearing 50. One end of the adjusting lever 48 projects out of the hinge housing 12 upwards and emerges between the two tongues of the elastic element 34. At this end, an adjusting element 52 is mounted via a clamping element 54. The tensioning element 54 is essentially designed as a nut into which a thread (not shown), which is formed on the adjusting element 52, engages. The clamping element 54 is rotatably mounted on the adjusting lever 48 in order to allow a pivoting movement of the adjusting element 52. About a floating bearing 56, the adjusting element 52 is connected with its door-side end to the clamping lever 38 such that the adjusting element 52 is rotatably mounted. When opening the door 2, the clamping lever bearing 40 runs in a circular movement about the hinge axis 16, wherein initially the clamping lever 38 is substantially raised. By raising the tensioning lever 38, the adjustment element 52 designed as a screw is lifted on the door side via the floating bearing 56. The door side arranged screw drive (slot) of the adjusting element 52 is freely accessible by lifting a screwdriver, whereby a spring bias of the counterbalancing spring 42 is adjustable. A latch 58 is movably mounted on the sword 6 and forms a bearing for a movable lever 60. Latch 58 and lever 60 are folded out such that the lever 60 is supported when closing the door 2 on a roller 62 and thereby further closing the door 2 prevented. A pulling force of the counterbalancing spring 42 on the door 2 is thereby intercepted. The door 2 can be removed without tools in this state for cleaning purposes by the swords 6 are pulled out of their receptacles 36. By inserting the swords 6 in the receptacles 36, the door 2 can be mounted again. If the door 2 is opened a little further, the lever 60 and the latch 58 are free and can be folded. The door 2 is now completely closed again. The roller 62 is attached to a bracket 64 which is rotatably mounted on the pivoting lever 66 on the clamping lever 38. The bracket 64 forms a bearing for a compression spring 68, which is held at its opposite end on the clamping lever 38. The sword 6 has near the hinge axis 16 on a contact contour 70, which is designed such that it stops at an opening angle Ī± of about 25 Ā°, the closing movement of the door 2 by resting against the roller 62. To further close the door 2 it is pressed against the spring force of the compression spring 68 further. The contact contour 70 is designed such that close to the closed position of the door 2 via the compression spring 68 an additional force in the direction of the closed position is exerted on the door 2.

Fig. 4 zeigt eine Detaildarstellung des am Scharnierlager 18 angeordneten DƤmpfers 72. Im DƤmpfer 72 ist ein StĆ¶ĆŸel 76 angeordnet, der Ć¼ber einen Winkel 80 eines Schubelements 82 betƤtigt wird. Der StĆ¶ĆŸel 76 stellt ein handelsĆ¼bliches, insbesondere aus der Mƶbelbranche bekanntes DƤmpfungselement dar. Fig. 4 shows a detailed view of the arranged on the hinge bearing 18 damper 72. In the damper 72, a plunger 76 is arranged, which is actuated by an angle 80 of a pusher member 82. The plunger 76 represents a commercially available, in particular from the furniture industry known damping element.

GemƤƟ Fig. 5 wird eine Bewegung eines Schwenkhebels 84 Ć¼ber das Schubelement 82 auf den StĆ¶ĆŸel 76 des DƤmpfers 72 Ć¼bertragen. Durch das FĆ¼hrungselement 26 ist der Schwenkhebel 84 drehbar am Spannhebel 38 ( Fig. 3 ) gelagert. Bewegt sich der Spannhebel 38 durch SchlieƟen der TĆ¼r in Richtung DƤmpfer 72, so bewirkt eine Sperrnase 88 eine Drehung des Schwenkhebels 84, wodurch der StĆ¶ĆŸel 76 bewegt wird. Durch den Schwenkhebel 84, der an einem Ende mit der Sperrnase 88 und am anderen Ende mit dem Schubelement 82 korrespondiert, wird Ć¼ber die Hebelwirkung eine gegenĆ¼ber der Bewegung des Spannhebels 38 lƤngere Schubbewegung des Schubelementes 82 erreicht. Dieses ist notwendig, da die Bewegungskomponente des Spannhebels 38 in Richtung DƤmpfer 72 bei kleinem Ɩffnungswinkel Ī± der TĆ¼r 2 fĆ¼r eine ausreichende DƤmpfung zu gering ist. Die Sperrnase 88 ist durch einen aus dem ScharniergehƤuse 12 ausgestellten Blechlappen gebildet. Die Position der Sperrnase 88 ist derart gewƤhlt, dass sich der StĆ¶ĆŸel 76 ab einem TĆ¼rƶffnungswinkel Ī± von 30Ā° bewegt und die TĆ¼r 2 dadurch gedƤmpft wird.According to Fig. 5 a movement of a pivot lever 84 is transmitted via the pusher 82 to the plunger 76 of the damper 72. By the guide member 26 of the pivot lever 84 is rotatably on the clamping lever 38 ( Fig. 3 ) stored. If the tensioning lever 38 moves in the direction of the damper 72 by closing the door, a blocking nose 88 causes a rotation of the pivoting lever 84, as a result of which the pushrod 76 is moved. By the pivot lever 84, which corresponds at one end to the locking lug 88 and at the other end to the thrust element 82, a relative to the movement of the clamping lever 38 longer thrust movement of the thrust element 82 is achieved via the lever action. This is necessary because the movement component of the clamping lever 38 in the direction of damper 72 at a small opening angle Ī± of the door 2 for a sufficient damping is too low. The locking nose 88 is formed by a issued from the hinge housing 12 sheet metal tabs. The position of the locking lug 88 is selected such that the plunger 76 moves from a door opening angle Ī± of 30 Ā° and the door 2 is thereby damped.

Fig. 6 zeigt eine AusfĆ¼hrungsform des ScharniergehƤuses 12, in der zwei schlĆ¼ssellochfƶrmige Ɩffnungen 90 ausgebildet sind, durch die das Schubelement 82 bei demontiertem DƤmpfer 72 werkzeuglos montierbar ist. Das Schubelement 82 weist zwei winkelfƶrmig ausgebildete Halteelemente 91 auf, die mit den Ɩffnungen 90 korrespondieren. In einer alternativen AusfĆ¼hrungsform (nicht gezeigt) ist das Schubelement 82 Ć¼ber an den SeitenwƤnden 14 des ScharniergehƤuses 12 angeordneten Konturen entsprechend einer SchubladenfĆ¼hrung einschiebbar. Fig. 6 shows an embodiment of the hinge housing 12, in which two keyhole-shaped openings 90 are formed, through which the thrust element 82 is mounted without tools with disassembled damper 72. The thrust element 82 has two angle-shaped holding elements 91, which correspond to the openings 90. In an alternative embodiment (not shown) this is Push element 82 can be inserted via contours arranged on the side walls 14 of the hinge housing 12 in accordance with a drawer guide.
