  • the device 1 comprises a first connection means 3 assigned to be fixed to a structure or frame of the device, and a second connection means 5 assigned to be fixed to the door or shutter to rotate this door with respect to the first connection means 3 and to the frame of the apparatus, between the opened and the closed extreme conditions.
  • first 3 and second 5 connection means are mutually connected by a hinge pin 4 perpendicular to them.
  • the second connection means 5 assigned to be attached to the door is thin and elongated in shape and bears the seat for the hinge pin 4 at one end thereof. In a closed operative condition C in which the second connection means 5 is almost vertical, such end of the second connection means 5 bearing the hinge pin 4 is the lower end.
  • the device 1 comprises a sliding friction means 7 moving, with sliding friction, along a respective rectilinear seat 9 fixed to or formed in a first face of the first connection means 3.
  • Said friction means 7 is fixed to a mobile means 11, for example consisting of a shaped arm with rectilinear and lengthened longitudinal extension made of metal sheet, placed in correspondence of the second face, opposite the first, of the first connection means 3, or sliding in abutment with the second face.
  • the device is also provided with a connecting rod means 13, of straight, flat and elongated shape, and made of metal sheet, whose ends are rotatably connected, by means of corresponding pins, respectively at one end of the mobile means 11 and to the second connection means 5 connecting them each other.

  • the friction means 7 has a rectangular or preferably oval shape with two parallel longitudinal and beveled sides; the respective seat 9 has an elongated and concave shape with parallel longitudinal sides and with transversal cross-section complementary to that of the longitudinal sides of the friction means 7.
  • the friction means 7 and the respective seat 9 have transversal cross sections in the shape of an isosceles trapezium.
  • the friction means 7 is made of plastic, of resin or of copper alloy or of aluminum and the seat 9 and the mobile means 11 are made of metal sheet and slide in mutual contact or via the interposition of a pillow, pad or plastic washer for example made of nylon® or of Teflon®.
  • the seat 9 can be flat and/or two flat friction means are provided, one in abutment with a face of the seat and the other in abutment with the other face of the seat and interposed between that face and the mobile means 11; in such a case it is not provided the pad or the plastic washer.
  • the bottom of the seat 9 for the friction means 7 has a pass through slot 15 parallel to the longitudinal sides and assigned to the free sliding of the stem of a screw 19 for connecting the friction means 7 to the mobile means 11 for the regulation of the pressure of the friction means 7 against the seat 9 and thus for adjusting the intensity of the sliding friction.
  • the friction means 7 carries a female screw 20, for example formed in a metal insert embedded in the thickness of the friction means 7, for the threaded stem of the screw 19 and the mobile means 11 has a hole for the free passage of the stem of the screw and optionally carries a compressible elastic member for the elastic separation of the latter mobile means 11 from the screw head.
  • the nut, or female screw can be formed in the mobile means 11 and the hole for the stem may be made into the friction means 7.
  • the end of the mobile means 11 opposite to the connecting rod means 13 is connected to a body means 22 sliding along the longitudinal development of the second face of the first connection means 3 and/or in a direction almost perpendicular to the second connection means 5 in the closed extreme condition and/or in a direction parallel to the longitudinal geometric axis of the seat 9 for the friction means 7.
  • connection between the body means 22 and the mobile means 11 can be realized by means of a pivot pin, as illustrated in the figures or, if the translational motion of the body means 22 is parallel to the longitudinal geometric axis of the seat 9, such body means 22 and the mobile means 11 possibly may be in a single body.
  • the longitudinal edges of the seat 9 can have sections spaced further apart or divergent, for example the distance between the portions of the edges of the seat 9 opposite to the second connection means 5 can be increased to reduce the friction during the terminal phase of the closing stroke of the door.
  • the device 1 comprises a first elastic means 24 acting in compression between a first fixing 23 fixed to or formed in the first connection means 3 and a second fixing 25 fixed to or formed in a side edge of the body means 22 to impart the second connection means 5 a closing elastic force.
  • the device 1 can also comprise an optional sliding block means 26, rotatably connected by a respective pivot pin 27 to the transverse edge of the body means 22 opposite, with respect to the longitudinal geometric axis of the seat 9, to the one bearing the second fixing, in which such sliding block means 26 slides with sliding friction along a first lip or fin or shaped edge 28 of the first connection means 3.
  • the invention provides that the body means 22 is provided with a further friction pad, not shown, equal and opposite to the first sliding block means 26.
  • the first elastic means 24 is almost completely included inside the profile of the first connection means 3 and it is of the type comprising a helical spring and a spring guide; the latter and the first lip, fin or shaped edge 28 are preferably parallel to the seat 9. It must be observed that such provision of the device makes it extremely more compact with respect to the known where the spring and spring guide protrude completely outward the connection means. This compactness allows to fix the first connection means 3 to the frame or to the structure of an oven laterally with respect to the mouth.
  • the device 1 is also provided with a rolling means 30, for example consisting of a roller or a metal roller having a pivot pin 29 fixed to a respective carriage 31 that is fixed to a transverse edge of the body means 22 by means of translation means or preferably, and as shown, by means of an oscillation pin 32; a second spring means 34 acting in compression between a respective first matching means 35 fixed to or formed in the body means 22 and a second matching means 37 attached to or formed in the carriage 31 to transmit to the rolling means 30 an elastic force thrusting the latter 30 against a second lip, fin or shaped edge 36 of the first connection means 3.
  • a rolling means 30 for example consisting of a roller or a metal roller having a pivot pin 29 fixed to a respective carriage 31 that is fixed to a transverse edge of the body means 22 by means of translation means or preferably, and as shown, by means of an oscillation pin 32; a second spring means 34 acting in compression between a respective first matching means 35 fixed to or formed in the body means 22 and a second matching means 37 attached to or formed
  • the lips, fins or edges 28, 36 are preferably mutually parallel and orthogonal to the main geometric plane of the first connecting means 3.
  • the second lip, fin or shaped edge 36 of the first connection means 3 comprises at least one among protrusion, recess, step, inclined plane and rib 38 assigned to abut the rolling means 30 to provide the second connection means 5 one or more intermediate positions of arrest elastically removable and/or a pushing force towards the closing in the end portion of the closing rotation of said second connection means 5.
  • the second lip 36 of the first connection means 3 of the device comprises a rib 38 which by acting on the rolling means 30, as in the closed condition C of such figure, provides a certain stability to the closed condition and an abutment force of the door against the seal of the mouth.
  • the protrusion provides a position of slight opening, called "grill" opening which is stable up to the application of a suitable opening or closing force.
  • the operation of the device 1 provides that, starting from the open condition A, the application to the door of a closing force, assisted by the elastic force of the spring and partially counteracted by the friction of the friction means 7 and of the sliding block means 26 allows to rotate the door up to the "grill" position to overcome which it will be needed a moderate increase of the closing force; just past the "grill” position, the second elastic means 34 in cooperation with the rib 38 provides an additional force directed towards the closure making stable the closed condition until the application of an overcoming opening force.
  • the friction means 7 and the sliding block means 26 guarantee the stability of all the intermediate positions between the open and the "grill" condition.
