Definitions

  • journal supported hinge is meant a hinge, in which the leaf to be attached to the frame is provided with a journal, onto which the leaf to be attached to the door can be placed.
  • Journal supported hinges are used, for example, in outer doors.
  • the hinge can be provided with lateral adjustment screws, with which the location of the door in relation to the frame can be adjusted in the lateral direction.
  • the adjustment screws are against the frame or a separate adjustment plate(s), which are in connection with the leaf to be installed in the frame.
  • the hinges are delivered with factory settings to customers, such as door factories or stores.
  • the structures of the lateral adjustment screw solutions are such that the screws are set in the factory such that the adjustment tolerance occurs in only one direction.
  • current lateral adjustment solutions provide a proper adjustment possibility in only one lateral direction, i.e. moving of the door towards the side provided with the lock.
  • the hinge comprises a base plate having a bottom plate and an edge projection, a first leaf part and a second leaf part, which first leaf part comprises a first roll provided with a pivot pin, and which second leaf part comprises a second roll, into which the end of the pivot pin is to be placed, which first and second leaf parts further have openings, of which a portion of the openings of the first leaf part is provided with adjustment screws which are against the bottom plate for lateral adjustment, wherein the base plate is placed in connection with the first leaf part and the bottom plate has openings.
  • the structure of this solution is relatively complicated and therefore it is not cost effective.
  • a hinge according to the invention provides a proper lateral adjustment possibility in both lateral directions, i.e. towards the side of the door provided with the lock or towards the side of the door provided with the hinges as viewed from the vertical centre line of the door.
  • the inventive hinge is achieved in the manner described in the independent claim.
  • the dependent claims describe various embodiments of the invention.
  • a journal supported hinge comprises a first leaf part and a second leaf part.
  • the first leaf part comprises a first roll, which is provided with a pivot journal.
  • the second leaf part comprises a second roll, into which the end of the pivot journal is to be inserted.
  • the first and second leaf parts further have openings, of which a portion of the openings of the first leaf part is provided with adjustment screws for lateral adjustment.
  • the journal supported hinge further comprises a base plate having a bottom plate and an edge projection.
  • the bottom plate has openings, and the side of one opening has a projection facing away from the first roll. The projection is bent to the side of the edge projection, and the edge projection has an edge opening.
  • the first leaf part has a second edge projection, which is mountable in the edge opening of the base plate such that the projection is partially in one of the openings in the first leaf part, and the adjustment screws are against the bottom part.
  • the edge projection (22) of the base plate (16), the second edge projection (13) of the first leaf part and the projection (19) are arranged to keep the base plate (16) and the first leaf part (1) together.
  • Fig. 1 shows an example of the first leaf part 1 of a journal supported hinge according to the invention.
  • the first leaf part comprises a first roll 3, which is provided with a pivot journal 4.
  • Fig. 2 shows an example of the second leaf part 2 of a journal supported hinge according to the invention, comprising a second roll 7, into which the end 4A of the pivot journal is to be placed.
  • the first leaf part 1 is intended for installation onto the frame 23 and the second leaf part 2 onto the door 24.
  • Both the first and the second leaf parts further have openings 5, 5A, 8, 9, of which a portion of the openings of the first leaf is provided with adjustment screws 6 for lateral adjustment. These openings are threaded for adjustment screws. The other openings are for attachment screws or other parts/functions.
  • One of the openings 5A can be an opening for the burglary protection projection 12.
  • Fig. 3 shows, how the second leaf part 2 is connected pivotally via the pivot journal 4 to the first leaf part 1.
  • the journal supported hinge further comprises a base plate 16, which is seen in Fig. 3 .
  • the base plate has a bottom plate 21 and an edge projection 22.
  • the bottom plate has openings 20, and on the side of one opening 18 is a projection 19 facing away from the first roll, when viewed with the bottom plate as installed in connection with the first leaf part 1.
  • the projection 19 is bent to the side of the edge projection 22.
  • the other openings 20 are intended for other functions such as for attachment to the frame 23. From the embodiment of Fig. 3 it can be seen that the edge projection 22 has an edge opening 17.
  • the first leaf part 1 has a second edge projection 13, which is mountable in the edge opening 17 of the base plate 16 such that the projection 19 is partially in one of the openings 5A in the first leaf part, and the adjustment screws 6 are against the bottom plate 21.
  • the edge projection 22 of the base plate is on the edge of the bottom plate 21 and facing away from the plane of the bottom plate.
  • the second edge projection 13 of the first leaf part 1 is in the same direction, i.e. in the same plane as the plane of the first leaf part.
  • Fig. 5 shows the base plate 16 and the first hinge part 1 as separate from each other, and Fig. 6 shows them in connection with each other.
  • Fig. 7 shows a cross-sectional view of Fig. 6 at the site of the adjustment screw.
  • Fig. 8 shows another cross-sectional view of Fig. 6 at the site of the projection 19.
  • Fig. 4 again shows an example of the installation of the hinge into the frame 23 and into the door 24.
  • the end 19A of the projection which is partially in the opening 5A in the first leaf part, is to be placed against the side 15 of the opening as shown by Fig. 8 .
  • the edge projection 22 is on three sides of the base plate.
  • the edge projection 22 of the base plate, the second edge projection 13 of the first leaf and the projection 19 keep the base plate 16 and the first leaf part 1 adequately together such that they are nonetheless free to turn in relation to each other. Installation of the parts to each other is also easy.
  • bending of the projection can be performed before connecting the base plate to the first leaf part or in connection with connecting the base plate and the first leaf part.
  • Fig. 7 demonstrates, how the lateral adjustment screw 6 can in the factory be preinstalled into the first leaf part 1, wherein the hinge has lateral adjustment tolerance both in the direction of the lock of the door and in the direction of the hinges of the door. If the adjustment screw 6 is rotated clockwise, the position of the door in relation to the frame moves towards the lock side of the door, i.e. the frame gap 25 on the hinge side of the door increases. If the adjustment screw 6 is rotated counterclockwise, the position of the door in relation to the frame moves towards the hinge side of the door, i.e. the frame gap 25 on the hinge side of the door decreases.
  • Fig. 4 demonstrates the frame gap 25 of the hinge side of the door.
  • the base plate 21 is between the frame 23 and the first leaf part 1, it forms a sturdy surface, in relation to which the rotation of the adjustment screw 6 achieves the moving of the first leaf part 1. Adjustment is easy and precise in both lateral directions.
  • the inventive hinge is also easy to attach to the door at the door factory. The milling to be performed into the frame is performed slightly deeper than with known hinges, nor do any changes need to be made to the milling of the door.
  • the base plate 21 is a separate part from the leaf parts 1, 2 of the hinge, then all parts of the hinge are easy to paint or galvanize or otherwise treat, wherein for the hinge are achieved good corrosion-resistance characteristics.
  • the moving / turning in relation to each other between the first leaf part 1 and the base plate 16 is also controlled such that the use of the adjustment screw 6 is easy, and the adjustment is precise.
  • the joining of the base plate and the first leaf part, for example, by welding or by bending at a bending point does not offer equally good characteristics in relation to usability of the adjustment. Additionally, achieving the desired corrosion-resistance characteristic is significantly more troublesome or even impossible.
  • the opening 18 having the projection 19 and the edge opening 17 of the edge projection can be joined, wherein is formed one opening, which is partially on the area joining the bottom plate 21 and the edge projection 22.
  • the bottom plate can also be formed differently.
  • Figs. 9, 10 and 11 show another possible embodiment 26 of the base plate, the edge projection 28 of which can have auxiliary projections 32 towards the middle area of the base plate. With these is assured the remaining in connection with each other of the base plate and the first leaf part as well as enabled easier positioning of the adjustment screw for pre-installation.
  • This embodiment has openings 29 covered by a separate plate 30. The openings and the plates settle at the sites of the lateral adjustment screws 6.
  • connection between the bottom plate 27 and the plate 30 is such that the plate is not free to press away from the opening due to the effect of the lateral adjustment screw.
  • Fig. 10 shows an embodiment of this kind of connection.
  • the plate and the bottom plate form thus a uniform sturdy support surface to the adjustment screw.
  • the plate can have a separate recess 31, which assures the settling of the adjustment screw against the plate/bottom plate 30, 27.
  • Figs. 9 and 11 can also be seen that the opening 34 of the bottom plate and the projection 35 therein can be shaped in a different manner in comparison to the embodiment of Fig. 5 . Also in this embodiment, the projection 35 is bent to the side of the edge projection, as shown by Fig. 11 . In this embodiment, the opening 34 comprising the projection 35 and the edge opening 33 are separate.
  • the opening 5A of the first leaf part 1, onto which the projection 19 is partially to be placed can be a burglary protection through opening, the side of which has a burglary protection projection 11, and the second leaf part 2 has a corresponding burglary protection opening 9 for the burglary protection projection.
  • the opening does not, however, need to be a burglary protection opening.
  • Also on the edge of the corresponding burglary protection opening 9 of the second leaf part 2 can be a second burglary protection projection 12.
  • the second roll 7 of the second leaf part is provided with a height adjustment screw 10, as is shown in the embodiment of the figures.
  • the material of the parts of the hinge can be used, for example, steel, plastic or both of these. Also other suitable materials can be used for producing the parts. Production is easy and the appearance is made to be neat and sleek.
