Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a friction hinge for a pivoting door, window or shutter and a method for mounting said pivoting door, window or shutter.
  • the friction hinge concerned is intended to be advantageously used in the door, window or shutter industry to allow pivoting wings to move about a horizontal axis or a vertical axis, with respect to a frame mounted in a fixed manner on walls of buildings of any kind.
  • the aforementioned pivoting wings are increasingly used for architectural reasons when making windows, skylights, or portholes.
  • pivoting doors, windows or shutters can rotate about a horizontal rotation axis, generally placed half-way up the door, window or shutter, or about a vertical rotation axis that can be centred or even decentred, as there is no need for balancing like in the case of horizontal pivoting.
  • the accessory that allows the pivoting leaf to pivot is commonly known in the field by the term “pivot hinge” or “friction hinge”, and hereafter the latter term will be used.
  • a friction hinge is usually obtained through two distinct bodies, one intended to be fixed to the leaf, and the other to be fixed to the frame of the pivoting door, window or shutter.
  • the two friction bodies are pivotably coupled together, in angularly adjustable position, through a mutual holding relationship by friction with respect to the relative rotation motion.
  • the friction force that holds the pivoting door, window or shutter in position is of adjustable intensity and for this purpose an adjustment screw is usually foreseen that keeps the two friction bodies under compression with the desired force.
  • friction hinge for example used for pivoting doors, windows or shutters using section bars of the line with the trade name "R", which foresees being fixed preferably in the middle of the frame through plates (or base blocks) inserted in recesses of the leaf and of the frame and fixed there in contrast against a projecting tooth of the recess, through dowels preferably of the grub screw type.
  • R the trade name
  • the dowel engages to the door, window or shutter through an irreversible deformation of the metal section bar of the door, window or shutter itself, consisting of an extruded piece of aluminium.
  • the engagement of the dowel is indeed obtained through the formation of a cavity on the metal section bar, which is shaped by the penetration of the end of the dowel in the section bar.
  • the main drawback of the known friction hinge described above is the difficulty that the fitter has in mounting the door, window or shutter and fixing such a hinge to the leaf and to the frame in the correct position. Indeed, if the plates are not placed with precision in the recess of the section bar, for example usually at the middle thereof, the dowels produce a milling impression on the metal section bar of the frame in a position that is then difficult to change.
  • the fitter must therefore take special care in positioning the plates since if they are not fixed with the dowels exactly in the correct final position suitable for ensuring the perfect closure of the pivoting door, window or shutter, it is then difficult to move the dowels, i.e. to carry out a fine adjustment of the position of the plates along the longitudinal direction of the anchoring cavity, since clearly the dowel will tend to move and go back inside the cavity that has already formed on the section bar.
  • the friction hinge described above does nevertheless have the advantage of being able to mount the leaf of the pivot, with the friction body already fixed, by inserting it frontally inside the frame.
  • the two bodies of the friction hinge are equipped with a shaped foot to insert directly into the anchoring cavity of the section bar of the door, window or shutter without the use of intermediate plates.
  • the need to fix the feet directly into the recess of the section bar of the door, window or shutter prevents the possibility of frontal installation of the leaf on the frame.
  • friction hinge once the friction hinge is secured on a first frame of the door, window or shutter with its foot fixed through self-tapping screws to the relative recess of the first frame, it is no longer possible to frontally mount the leaf on the frame by interference of the hinge itself and it is thus necessary to leave the second frame without one side in order to be able to slot the hinge already fixed to the first frame into the anchoring cavity of the second frame.
  • the correct fastening position of the feet of the two bodies is theoretically defined through measurement. Once such a position has been defined, the two bodies of the hinge are definitively fixed to the relative section bars through self-tapping screws. If the position of the hinge is not perfectly correct, it is necessary to replace the section bar that has been involved in the fastening of the hinge with the screws with another new one, given that it is impossible to make a new hole a few millimetres or tenths of millimetres from the previous hole.
  • the friction hinges of the type described above therefore have the main drawback of not allowing adjustments of their position to be carried out along the anchoring cavity of the frames.
  • the different section bars have anchoring recesses of different dimensions with holding teeth that vary their shape and their projection above the recess. Consequently, the hinges must currently be optimised for the specific section bar on which they must then be mounted. Therefore, manufacturers of friction hinges for pivots as well as the fitters that work with different doors, windows and shutters must hold in stock a large number of hinges, each susceptible of being mounted on a specific corresponding section bar of a door, window or shutter. This circumstance means an increase in production and installation costs, which, in the end, result in a higher cost of the pivoting door, window or shutter.
  • a friction hinge for a pivoting window comprising a fixed frame provided with a first section bar having a first anchoring cavity and a movable leaf, provided with a second section bar having a second anchoring cavity.
  • the friction hinge comprises a first friction body susceptible of being held on the fixed frame through first fastening means mechanically engaged to the first anchoring cavity of the first section bar and rigidly fastened to the first friction body.
  • the friction hinge further comprises a second friction body pivotably mechanically coupled to the first friction body and susceptible of being fastened to the movable leaf through second fastening means mechanically engaged to the second anchoring cavity of the second section bar and rigidly fastened to the second friction body.
  • the basic purpose of the present invention is therefore to avoid the drawbacks encountered in the known solutions quoted above, providing a friction hinge for a pivoting door, window or shutter, which can be installed in section bars of doors, windows or shutters having different dimensional characteristics and in particular anchoring recesses of different dimensions.
  • Another purpose of the present finding is to provide a friction hinge for a pivoting door, window or shutter, which permits adjustment of its position after having been mounted on the section bars of the door, window or shutter.
  • a further purpose of the present finding is to provide a friction hinge for a pivoting door, window or shutter, which allows adjustment of the position of the leaf with respect to the fixed frame in a totally safe and extremely precise manner.
  • Another purpose of the present finding is to provide a friction hinge for a pivoting door, window or shutter, which permits its adjustment even with the door, window or shutter installed and in particular after the glass pane has been mounted.
  • Another purpose of the present finding is to provide a friction hinge for a pivoting door, window or shutter, which allows pivoting doors, windows or shutters of substantial weight to be supported.
  • Another purpose of the present finding is to provide a friction hinge for a pivoting door, window or shutter, which is constructively simple and operatively totally reliable.
  • Another purpose of the present finding is to provide a friction hinge for a pivoting door, window or shutter, which allows the storage costs to be reduced.
  • a further purpose of the present finding is to provide a method for mounting a pivoting door, window or shutter, which allows the costs linked to its production process and to its maintenance to be reduced.
  • a further purpose of the present finding is to provide a method for mounting a pivoting door, window or shutter, which allows the movable leaf to be applied frontally in the fixed frame.
  • a further purpose of the present finding is to provide a method for mounting a pivoting door, window or shutter, which allows the position of the leaf to be adjusted with respect to the frame in a precise manner.
  • a further purpose of the present finding is to provide a method for mounting a pivoting door, window or shutter, which allows the position of the leaf to be adjusted with respect to the frame after having installed the glass pane.
  • a further purpose of the present finding is to provide a method for mounting a pivoting door, window or shutter, which allows the hinge to be installed on doors, windows or shutters having different dimensional characteristics and in particular anchoring recesses of different dimensions.
  • the friction hinge 1 is intended to be used in a per sé conventional manner together with a second analogous friction hinge, to adjust the position of a movable leaf 3 on a fixed frame 2, with the movable leaf 3 being able to rotate between different positions about a rotation axis Y, horizontal or vertical, according to the different application requirements, and being able to be advantageously used usually to obtain a pivoting door, window or shutter such as a window, a skylight or a porthole.

  • a step of frontal insertion of the movable leaf 3 into the fixed frame 2 followed by a second step of fastening the other of the friction bodies 10, 11 to the respective section bar 2', 3' of the fixed frame 2 or of the movable leaf 3.
  • a second fastening step can be operatively the same, mutatis mutandis, as the aforementioned first fastening step.
  • the method for mounting the pivoting door, window or shutter object of the present invention also preferably comprises a step of adjusting the longitudinal position of the friction hinge 1.
  • Such an adjustment step comprises, for this purpose, a step of loosening the first screw 17 in order to allow the relative sliding of the friction body 10, 11 above the plate 15; a subsequent step of setting the eccentric element 34 in rotation, determining the sliding of the counterplate16 beneath the plate 15 and thus the movement of the relative friction body 10, 11 parallel to the anchoring cavity 5, 8 until a predetermined optimal closing position of the leaf 3 on the frame 2 is reached.
  • the first screw 17 slides in the first opening 18 shaped like an elongated slot formed in the plate 15 parallel to the anchoring cavity 5, 8.
  • the finding thus conceived therefore achieves the predetermined purposes.
