Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of double articulated quadrilateral hinges, in particular, but not exclusively, to hinges used for rotatingly connecting a door panel with a fixed frame.
  • the preferred and most advantageous application of the invention falls within the field of interior furnishing and furnishing for motorhomes, caravans, boats and the like.
  • Double articulated quadrilateral hinges are generally known in the state of the art.
  • hinges guarantee a fluid opening movement and the possibility of being stably stopped in run-end positions corresponding to open or closed door conditions.
  • This document teaches how to produce an articulated double quadrilateral snap hinge with a damped closure, comprising a first and second articulated quadrilateral that share two levers, said hinge being provided with a damping element interposed between one of the two quadrilaterals and the relative plate, in order to damp the transition between the open and closed configuration.
  • a first limitation lies in the fact that the position of the damper (between a plate and the articulated quadrilateral) is not optimal in certain respects, with regard to the encumbrances.
  • damper is completely exposed towards the outside, with the consequence that a possible loss of damping fluid (oil or grease) could easily dirty the door panel or frame of the piece of furniture.
  • the document DE 202007004621 U1 discloses a dampened snap-hinge according to the preamble of claim 1, having a fastening element which can be fastened to a furniture and which is connected to a pivotable door bearing by a plurality of scissors-like levers, the door bearing being pre-stressed into a closed position by a spring.
  • the hinge comprises a damper for damping the transition between the open configuration and the closed configuration and viceversa.
  • the objective of the present invention is to overcome the drawbacks of the known art.
  • the objective of the present invention is to provide a hinge, according to the preamble of the first enclosed claim, which is compact and/or reduces the possibility of losses of fluid of the damper and/or is easily manoeuvrable.
  • Another objective of the invention is to provide such a hinge as an alternative to the known hinges.
  • the general idea at the basis of the present invention is to position the damping element between an arm of the articulated quadrilateral and a lever in common between the two articulated quadrilaterals that form the hinge.
  • the damper does not interfere with the plates associated with the articulated quadrilaterals and allows a hinge having more compact dimensions to be obtained.
  • the damper when the hinge is closed, the damper is substantially horizontal, with the consequence of preventing or reducing possible losses of fluid from its interior.
  • the hinge of the invention comprises a shaped cursor, which slides parallelly with respect to the plate with which it is coupled, and provided with a seat for housing a shaft that is integral with one of the levers of one of the quadrilaterals; the seat is destined for snap-receiving (thanks to a spring acting between the cursor and plate), the shaft of the lever when the hinge is in an open condition.
  • Figures 7-10 are sectional views of the hinge of figure 5 in an open, intermediate and closed condition respectively, and along the sectional plane T-T of figure 9 .
  • FIGS 1-5 show a basic embodiment of a hinge 1 according to the invention
  • figures 6-10 show an evolved form 10 of the hinge of the invention.
  • Said hinge proves to be a dampened snap hinge and comprises, for this purpose:
  • the plates can themselves be part of the respective articulated quadrilaterals (as in the exemplificative figures) or variably coupled (welded, for example) with the same quadrilaterals 2,3.
  • the first lever 23 and the second lever 32 are in common with the first 2 and second 3 articulated quadrilateral, to form the hinge 1, which is movable between an open ( figure 2 ) and a closed ( figure 4 ) configuration; typically, the plates 4, 5 are arranged differently with respect to each other, in the two configurations, so as to allow the articulation in rotation of two elements T and P, for example (but not exclusively), a frame T and a door panel P.
  • the hinge 1 also comprises a damper 7 for damping the transition between the open configuration and the closed configuration and vice versa.
  • the damper 7 is characteristically interposed between one of the first or second levers 23,32, and the arm 21,31 of one of the first 2 or second 3 quadrilaterals.
  • the damper 7 is coupled with the first quadrilateral 2, in particular between the arm 21 and the articulation fulcrum X1 of the levers 23,32.
  • the damper 7 is coupled with the second quadrilateral 3 in particular between the arm 31 and the articulation fulcrum X1 of the two levers 23,32.
  • first lever 23 is hinged to the arm 21 of the first quadrilateral 2, to the second lever 32 and to the plate 5 of the second quadrilateral 3, whereas the second lever 32 is hinged to the arm 31 of the second quadrilateral 3, to the first lever 23 and to the plate 4 of the first quadrilateral 2.
  • fulcrum points are typically produced with suitable pins, to which no further mention will be made herein as they are well-known in the state of the art.
  • lever 23 adjacent to the damper 7 is advantageously provided with a box-shaped cover 230 destined for (at least partially) concealing the damper 7 from sight.
  • the snap functioning of the hinge is guaranteed, in these embodiments, by at least one return spring; in this sense the difference should be noted between the basic embodiment in which there is a single spring 12 and the evolved embodiment 10 in which there are two adjacent springs 120.
  • the spring(s) 12, 120 operate at least between one of the quadrilaterals 2,3 and a respective plate 4,5, in particular between the arm 21 or 31 and the plate 4 or 5.
  • the spring 12 and the same damper 7 are positioned offset with respect to a central symmetry plane SIM of the quadrilaterals 2 and 3 of the hinge 1.
  • the arm 31 of a quadrilateral 3 optionally and advantageously comprises a shaft 35 integral therewith; the hinge 1,10 also comprises a shaped cursor 8 which defines a housing seat 81 for the shaft 35.
  • the engagement between the shaft 35 and the seat 81 preferably takes place in conjunction with an opening span of the hinge higher than 50% from the closed configuration: it should in fact be observed that in figures 3 and 8 , which show configurations in which the hinge is open by about 45°, i.e. about 50% of the maximum movement span - the shaft 35 is not yet engaged with the seat 81.
  • the shaft 35 occupies the seat 81 of the cursor close to the closed configuration of the hinge 1,10.
  • the cursor 8 is advantageously assembled on one of the plates 5 and can be moved with respect to the latter in a plane substantially parallel to the same.
  • At least one check spring 85 is provided between the cursor 8 and the plate 5, destined for pushing the cursor 8, at least when the hinge 1,10 is in an open configuration, towards the shaft 35, so as to create the form engagement between the seat 81 and the shaft 35.
  • the cursor 8 is preferably associated with that plate (plate 5 in this case) whose arm (31 in this case) is not coupled with the damper 7, so as to further reduce the encumbrance.
  • the cursor 8 is associated with that plate (plate 5 in this case) which is not coupled with the return spring(s) 12, 120.
  • the damper 7 is preferably of the type with one stem and with a jacket telescopically engaged with each other, wherein the damping is obtained thanks to a fluid (typically oil or grease) acting between them.
  • a fluid typically oil or grease
  • dampers for hinges are generally known in the state of the art and consequently no further mention will be made thereof.
