Definitions
- the present invention concerns a hinge to hinge a mobile element, such as a door, even a very heavy one, for example about 80 kg in weight, or a window or a panel of an article of furniture, with respect to a fixed structural element such as a door frame or window frame, or the bearing structure of an article of furniture.
- the hinge according to the present invention is the type with three elements, coaxial to each other, of which a central one, configured to be attached normally to the mobile element, and two terminal or lateral hinging elements, disposed respectively one above and one below the central one, and configured to be both fixed normally to the fixed structural element.
- the two terminal hinging elements are pivoted with respect to the central element along the same hinging axis so as to allow, during use, the articulation of the mobile element with respect to the fixed structural element.
- the hinge is also provided with adjustment means that allow, during use, to adjust the position of the mobile element with respect to the fixed structural element in one or more directions.
- hinges consisting of three hinging elements, coaxial to each other along a hinging axis, of which one is positioned in an intermediate position and is configured to be normally attached to the mobile element.
- the other two hinging elements called terminal, are instead disposed respectively one above and one below the central element and are configured to be both normally attached to the fixed structural element.
- the two terminal hinging elements are pivoted with respect to the central element along the hinging axis so as to allow, during use, the articulation of the mobile element with respect to the fixed structural element.
- a hinge that comprises two terminal hinging elements configured to be normally attached to a fixed structural element, a central hinging element mounted between the two terminal hinging elements coaxially thereto, and configured to be normally attached to the fixed structural element.
- the central hinging element in turn comprises a central cavity which has a development orthogonal to the hinging axis and is configured to house an adjustment element, which is in turn configured to be disposed in cooperation with the mobile element and which can be guided to modify the distance between the mobile element and the hinging axis.
- two seatings are disposed on opposite sides with respect to the central cavity and have a development substantially parallel to the hinging axis.
- the hinge described in EP-A-1.835.101 also comprises two pins, each of which is associated with a corresponding terminal element and is able to cooperate with a respective one of said seatings to allow the articulation of the mobile element with respect to the fixed structural element.
- This known hinge although simple to make, has the disadvantage that it requires a rather complex assembly step, since the two pins have to be inserted, one from above and one from below, into the central hinging element through the two terminal hinging elements.
- a hinge which comprises a central hinging element having a pivoting axis and two terminal hinging elements configured to be disposed on reciprocally opposite sides and with play with respect to the central hinging element, coaxially to the pivoting axis.
- the central hinging element comprises a cavity in which two pivoting elements are slidingly disposed, mobile longitudinally along the pivoting axis between an inactive position in which they are completely inside the cavity and an operating position in which they protrude operatively from the cavity so that they can be selectively inserted into corresponding guide seatings made in the two terminal hinging elements.
- the hinge disclosed in FR-A-2.883.902 has the disadvantage, however, that in order to move axially each of the two pivoting elements it is necessary to contrast the action of the elastic spring, and also that it does not have any adjustment means to adjust the position of the pivoting axis with respect to the fixed element on which the hinge is mounted.
- a hinge similar to that in FR-A-2.883.902 is also known from US-A-3.671.998 , where in the central hinging element is made a cavity in which two pivoting elements are slidingly disposed, longitudinally mobile along the pivoting axis between an inactive position in which they are completely inside the cavity, and an operating position in which they protrude operatively from the cavity so that they can be selectively inserted into corresponding guide seatings made in the two terminal hinging elements.
- An elastic spring is inserted into the cavity of the central hinging element and constantly thrusts the two pivoting elements into the operating position.
- the hinge described in US-A-3.671.998 has the same disadvantages as the hinge described in FR-A-2.883.902 .
- a hinge is known from the German patent application DE-A-102010047774 with a central hinging element having in the lower part a pin protruding downward and inserted into a corresponding axial cavity of the lower hinging element.
- a second pin is disposed coaxial to the first and has the upper part inserted into an axial cavity of the upper hinging element, and the lower part inserted in an upper axial cavity of the central hinging element.
- the hinge described in DE-A-102010047774 has the disadvantage that it requires a rather complex assembly step because, due to the presence of the two pins, the three hinging elements have to be assembled one at a time, starting from the lower one.
- a hinge is known from the French patent application FR-A-2.966.860 with two hinging elements coupled with each other by a central axial pin, which has its two ends configured to be inserted into two corresponding axial cavities of the two hinging elements.
- This last hinge also has the disadvantage that it requires that the upper hinging element is assembled from above only after the lower hinging element has been assembled, and that the central axial pin has been inserted into the axial cavity of the latter.
- One purpose of the present invention is to obtain a hinge of the type with three hinging elements which is simple, effective and inexpensive, and which at the same time allows an easy and rapid assembly of the three hinging elements on the elements to be hinged on which it is installed, and in which, in particular, the two terminal hinging elements can be assembled on one of the two elements to be hinged autonomously with respect to the assembly of the central hinging element on the other of the two elements to be hinged.
- Another purpose of the present invention is to obtain a hinge of the type with three elements which is also provided with adjustment means that allow to selectively adjust, during use, the position of the mobile element with respect to the corresponding fixed structural element, in at least one direction, preferably two directions, perpendicular to each other, and even more preferably three directions, each perpendicular to the other two, and that each adjustment can occur simply, continuously and quickly, without needing to dis-assemble the mobile element from the fixed structural element or the components of the hinge.

- The present invention concerns a hinge to hinge a mobile element, such as a door, even a very heavy one, for example about 80 kg in weight, or a window or a panel of an article of furniture, with respect to a fixed structural element such as a door frame or window frame, or the bearing structure of an article of furniture. The hinge according to the present invention is the type with three elements, coaxial to each other, of which a central one, configured to be attached normally to the mobile element, and two terminal or lateral hinging elements, disposed respectively one above and one below the central one, and configured to be both fixed normally to the fixed structural element. The two terminal hinging elements are pivoted with respect to the central element along the same hinging axis so as to allow, during use, the articulation of the mobile element with respect to the fixed structural element. The hinge is also provided with adjustment means that allow, during use, to adjust the position of the mobile element with respect to the fixed structural element in one or more directions.
- In the field of door and window frames and articles of furniture, hinges are known consisting of three hinging elements, coaxial to each other along a hinging axis, of which one is positioned in an intermediate position and is configured to be normally attached to the mobile element. The other two hinging elements, called terminal, are instead disposed respectively one above and one below the central element and are configured to be both normally attached to the fixed structural element. The two terminal hinging elements are pivoted with respect to the central element along the hinging axis so as to allow, during use, the articulation of the mobile element with respect to the fixed structural element.
- From the European patent application
EP-A-1.835.101 , property of the present Applicant, a hinge is known that comprises two terminal hinging elements configured to be normally attached to a fixed structural element, a central hinging element mounted between the two terminal hinging elements coaxially thereto, and configured to be normally attached to the fixed structural element. The central hinging element in turn comprises a central cavity which has a development orthogonal to the hinging axis and is configured to house an adjustment element, which is in turn configured to be disposed in cooperation with the mobile element and which can be guided to modify the distance between the mobile element and the hinging axis. Moreover, two seatings are disposed on opposite sides with respect to the central cavity and have a development substantially parallel to the hinging axis. The hinge described inEP-A-1.835.101 also comprises two pins, each of which is associated with a corresponding terminal element and is able to cooperate with a respective one of said seatings to allow the articulation of the mobile element with respect to the fixed structural element. - This known hinge, although simple to make, has the disadvantage that it requires a rather complex assembly step, since the two pins have to be inserted, one from above and one from below, into the central hinging element through the two terminal hinging elements.

- Furthermore, in the present description, the terms horizontal, vertical, top, upper and lower have only the function of better illustrating the present invention with reference to the attached drawings, and in no way must be used to limit the scope or use thereof.
- With reference to
fig. 1 , ahinge 10 according to the present invention, and according to a first embodiment, is shown installed to hinge amobile element 11, which can be for example a door, even a very heavy one, for example about 80 kg in weight, a window or a panel of a wardrobe or other article of furniture, with respect to a fixedstructural element 12, which can be for example the frame of a door or window, or the fixed structure of an article of furniture. - The
hinge 10 is the type with three hinging elements disposed coaxial with each other along a pivoting axis X. In particular, the three hinging elements comprise acentral hinging element 13, a firstterminal hinging element 14, disposed during use below thecentral hinging element 13, and a secondterminal hinging element 15, disposed during use above thecentral hinging element 13. The three hinging elements each have a substantially cylindrical shape with the same external diameter. - The
central hinging element 13 is provided with atransverse cavity 16 orthogonal to the pivoting axis X and able to house a first adjustment element which, in the case shown here, is afirst screw 17 that can be selectively screwed into the mobile element 11 (fig. 1 ). - The
first screw 17 has anannular groove 18 able to cooperate with mating retaining means, of a known type, for example two balls 19 (fig. 4 ), which prevent the axial translation thereof, and is provided with a head having a screwingseating 20, for example hexagonal in shape, to insert a tool, for example an Allen key. - The
first screw 17 is therefore constrained transverse to thecentral hinging element 13, but can rotate with respect to a first axis of rotation Y1 (fig. 5 ), orthogonal to the pivoting axis X, so that it can be screwed/unscrewed with respect to the mobile element 11 (fig. 1 ) to modify the distance between the latter and thecentral hinging element 13. - The
central hinging element 13 also comprises a first centeringpin 21 parallel to the first axis of rotation Y1 and configured to enter into a corresponding guide hole of themobile element 11. - Furthermore, the
central hinging element 13 is provided with a first axial cavity 22 (fig. 5 ), coaxial to the pivoting axis X, in which afirst pin 23 is slidingly inserted. Aneyelet 24, parallel to the pivoting axis X, is made in the front part, that is, the part opposite thefirst screw 17, of thecentral hinging element 13. A first threadeddowel 25 is screwed into the upper part of thefirst pin 23, transverse to the pivoting axis X, and has its head inserted into theeyelet 24. - The tip of the first threaded
dowel 25 is configured to cooperate with a corresponding V-shaped hollow 26 made in thecentral hinging element 13 in correspondence with the firstaxial cavity 22. - The first
terminal hinging element 14, in its lower part, is provided with atransverse cavity 27 orthogonal to the pivoting axis X and able to house a second adjustment element which, in the case shown here, is asecond screw 28 which can be selectively screwed into the fixed structural element 12 (fig. 1 ). - The
second screw 28 has an annular groove 29 (fig. 5 ) able to cooperate with mating retaining means, of a known type, for example two balls 30 (fig. 4 ), which prevent the axial translation thereof, and is provided with a head having a screwingseating 31, for example hexagonal in shape, to insert a tool, for example an Allen key. - The
second screw 28 is therefore constrained transverse to the firstterminal hinging element 14, but can rotate with respect to a second axis of rotation Y2 (fig. 5 ), orthogonal to the pivoting axis X, so that it can be screwed/unscrewed with respect to the fixed structural element 12 (fig. 1 ) to modify the distance between the latter and the firstterminal hinging element 14. - The first
terminal hinging element 14 also comprises a second centeringpin 32 parallel to the second axis of rotation Y2 and configured to enter into a corresponding guide hole of the fixedstructural element 12. - Furthermore, the first
terminal hinging element 14 is provided with an axial cavity 33 (fig. 5 ), coaxial to the pivoting axis X, in which apeg 34 is slidingly inserted, having its lower end cut at 45° with respect to the pivoting axis X. the upper end of thepeg 34 is configured to contact the lower part of thefirst pin 23. - A second threaded
dowel 35 is screwed into a threadedhole 36 made in the firstterminal hinging element 14, transverse to the pivoting axis X and has a conical tip with an angle at the top of 90°, permanently in contact with the lower end of thepeg 34. - Moreover, the upper part of the first
terminal hinging element 14 is provided with anaxial hole 37, in which afirst bushing 38 is inserted, which functions as a first guide member and is configured to receive with precision the lower part of thefirst pin 23. - The second
terminal hinging element 15, in its upper part, is provided with atransverse cavity 39 orthogonal to the pivoting axis X and is able to house a third adjustment element which, in the case shown here, is athird screw 40 that can be selectively screwed into the fixed structural element 12 (fig. 1 ). - The
third screw 40 has an annular groove 41 (fig. 5 ) able to cooperate with mating retaining means, of a known type, for example two balls 42 (fig. 4 ), which prevent the axial translation thereof, and is provided with a head having a screwingseating 43, for example hexagonal in shape, to insert a tool, for example an Allen key. - The
third screw 40 is therefore constrained transverse to the secondterminal hinging element 15, but can rotate with respect to a third axis of rotation Y3 (fig. 5 ), orthogonal to the pivoting axis X, so that it can be screwed/unscrewed with respect to the fixed structural element 12 (fig. 1 ) to modify the distance between the latter and the firstterminal hinging element 14. - The second
terminal hinging element 15 also comprises a third centeringpin 44 parallel to the third axis of rotation Y3 and configured to enter into a corresponding guide hole of the fixedstructural element 12. - Furthermore, the second
terminal hinging element 15 is provided with an axial cavity 45 (fig. 5 ), coaxial to the pivoting axis X, in which asecond pin 46 is slidingly inserted. Aneyelet 47, parallel to the pivoting axis X, is made in the front part, that is, the part opposite thethird screw 40 of the secondterminal hinging element 15. A third threadeddowel 48 is screwed into the upper part of thesecond pin 46, transverse to the pivoting axis X, and has its head inserted into theeyelet 47. - The tip of the third threaded
dowel 48 is configured to cooperate with a corresponding V-shaped hollow 49 made in the secondterminal hinging element 15 in correspondence with theaxial cavity 45. - The lower part of the
second pin 46 is configured to be inserted with precision into asecond bushing 50 disposed in anaxial hole 51 made in the upper part of thecentral hinging element 13. - The
hinge 10 as described heretofore is assembled and functions as follows. - In an assembled condition, shown schematically in
fig. 2 , the twopins axial cavities - A first assembly step of the
hinge 10 provides that the two terminal hinging elements of thehinge 10, that is, thelower one 14 and theupper one 15, are attached to the fixed structural element 12 (fig. 1 ), by screwing the twoscrews terminal hinging elements central hinging element 13 with thefirst pin 23 completely inside the corresponding firstaxial cavity 22. - Separately, the
central hinging element 13 is attached to themobile element 11, screwing thefirst screw 17 into the latter. - In a second assembly step, the
central hinging element 13, already attached to themobile element 11, is inserted between the twoterminal hinging elements fig. 2 , after having loosened the two threadeddowels pins bushings 38 and 50 (figs. 1 ,3 and5 ). Then the two threadeddowels notches pins - The
hinge 10 thus assumes an operating condition simply and easily, with themobile element 11 hinged to the fixedstructural element 12. - In this operating condition it is also possible to easily adjust the
hinge 10, to adjust the reciprocal position of themobile element 11 with respect to the fixedstructural element 12 in three directions perpendicular to each other. - In fact, by selectively screwing or unscrewing the
second screw 28 and thethird screw 40 into/from the fixed structural element 12 (fig. 1 ) it is possible to move themobile element 11 toward or away from the fixedstructural element 12, thus performing a first horizontal adjustment, also called front adjustment, of themobile element 11 with respect to the fixedstructural element 12. - Moreover, by selectively screwing or unscrewing the
first screw 17 into/from themobile element 11 it is possible to move the latter toward or away from the fixedstructural element 12, thus performing a second horizontal adjustment, also called lateral adjustment, perpendicular to the first horizontal adjustment, of themobile element 11 with respect to the fixedstructural element 12. - Finally, by selectively screwing or unscrewing the second threaded
dowel 35 it is possible to vary, by means of the peg 34 (fig. 5 ), the axial position of thecentral hinging element 13 with respect to the twoterminal hinging elements fig. 1 ) with respect to the fixedstructural element 12. - According to a second embodiment, shown schematically in
fig. 6 , ahinge 110 according to the present invention substantially comprises the same components as thehinge 10 described above, except for the fact that each of the three hinging elements 113, 114 and 115, instead of a single centeringpin pins corresponding screw - According to a third embodiment, shown schematically in
fig. 7 , ahinge 210 according to the present invention comprises three hingingelements terminal hinging element 214 is the same as the firstterminal hinging element 14 of the second embodiment shown infig. 6 . - The
central hinging element 213 is instead shaped so as to have the lower part the same as that of thecentral hinging element 13, with theaxial cavity 22 in which thefirst pin 23 is housed, and the upper part which, instead of being provided with theaxial hole 51 in which thesecond bushing 50 is housed, is provided with anotheraxial cavity 245 into which asecond pin 246 is slidingly inserted, configured to exit selectively upward, in an operating position. - In correspondence with the other
axial cavity 245, aneyelet 246 is made, parallel to theaxial cavity 245, into which the head of a third threadeddowel 248 is inserted, identical to the third threadeddowel 48. The tip of the third threadeddowel 248 is configured to cooperate with a corresponding V-shaped hollow 249 made in the upper part of thecentral hinging element 215, in correspondence with the otheraxial cavity 245. - The second
terminal hinging element 215, in its lower part, instead of being provided with thesecond pin 46, is provided with anaxial hole 251 into which asecond bushing 250 is inserted, configured to receive the upper part of thesecond pin 246. - In the case of the
hinge 210, the second assembly step provides that thecentral hinging element 213, already attached to themobile element 11, is inserted between the twoterminal hinging elements first pin 23 is lowered and thesecond pin 246 is thrust upward, so as to insert them into the correspondingbushings dowels notches pins - It is understood that modifications and/or additions of parts may be made to the
hinges - For example, each of the two threaded
dowels notch central hinging element terminal hinging element - Furthermore, it is clear that the
terminal hinging elements mobile element 11, and that therefore thecentral hinging element structural element 12. - Moreover, it is obvious for a person of skill in the art that the
first pin 23 sliding axially in thecentral hinging element 13 could face upward and selectively cooperate with the secondterminal hinging element 15, while thesecond pin 46 could be mounted sliding in the firstterminal hinging element 14 and face upward to selectively cooperate with thecentral hinging element 13. - It is also clear that, although the present invention has been described with reference to some specific examples, a person of skill in the art shall certainly be able to achieve many other equivalent forms of hinges, having the characteristics as set forth in the claims and hence all coming within the field of protection defined thereby.
