Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a hinge for doors or windows made using section bar elements, for example made of metal such as aluminum or iron, or plastic material, such as for example PVC, to hinge to each other a mobile element of the door or window, or a panel, with respect to a fixed structural element, like the frame of the door or window.
  • the hinge according to the present invention is provided with adjustment means that allow, during use, to adjust the position of the mobile element with respect to the fixed structural element in three directions, perpendicular to each other.
  • hinges In the field of doors or windows made with section bars, for example made of metal, such as aluminum or steel, or plastic material, such as for example PVC, different types of hinges are known, normally consisting of two hinging units, one of which is configured to be attached to the fixed frame of the door or window, while the other is configured to be attached to the mobile element of the door or window.
  • a pivoting member connects the two hinging units to each other, to articulate them with respect to each other along a single hinging axis.
  • At least the hinging unit to be associated with the mobile element of the door or window must be configured so that it can be located, in the closed position, in the narrow space between the mobile element and the corresponding fixed frame of the door or window.
  • One purpose of the present invention is to obtain a hinge for doors or windows made using section bar elements which is simple, efficient and inexpensive, and which at the same time allows easy and rapid assembly of the elements of the door or window on which it is installed.
  • Another purpose of the present invention is to obtain a hinge for doors or windows made using section bar 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 three directions, each perpendicular with respect to the other two, and so that each adjustment can be carried out simply, continuously and rapidly, without needing to dis-assemble either the mobile element from the fixed structural element or the different components of the hinge.
  • the Applicant has devised, tested and embodied the present invention to overcome the shortcomings of the state of the art and to obtain these and other purposes and advantages.
  • a hinge according to the present invention for doors or windows made using section bar elements comprises a first hinging unit configured to be attached to the fixed structural element, a second hinging unit configured to be attached to the mobile element, a pivoting member configured to articulate the two hinging units with respect to each other along a pivoting axis, and first adjustment means configured to selectively move the second hinging unit with respect to the first hinging unit parallel to the pivoting axis.
  • the hinge comprises second adjustment means configured to selectively move the mobile element with respect to the fixed structural element in a first direction perpendicular to the pivoting axis and third adjustment means configured to selectively move the mobile element with respect to the fixed structural element in a second direction perpendicular both to the pivoting axis and also to the first direction.

  • connection element 34 to be able to be disposed adequately between the fixed structural element 14 and the mobile element 12, especially when the latter is in the closed position, consists of a metal plate, with a thickness comprised for example between about 1 mm and about 6 mm, and is substantially L-shaped.
  • connection element 34 comprises a first part 36 facing the external surface of the second part 30 of the pivoting element 28 and provided with the two first blocks 33.
  • a first eccentric element 37 of a known type, is interposed between the first part 36 of the connection element 34 and the second part 30 of the pivoting element 28, and is partly housed in a through hole 38 of the first part 36 of the connection element 34.
  • the selective rotation of the first eccentric element 37 causes the displacement of the connection element 34 and of the mobile element 12 associated with it, in a first direction Y.
  • Two first clamping screws 39 inserted in two corresponding eyelets 40 of the first part 36 of the connection element 34 are suitable to clamp the latter in the desired position.
  • connection element 34 comprises a second part 41, perpendicular to the first part 36 and parallel to the plate 35.
  • the second part 41 comprises a central groove 42, parallel to the pivoting axis X and in which an intermediate element 43 is slidingly disposed, interposed between the second part 41 and the plate 35.
  • the intermediate element 43 is provided with two second blocks 44, disposed in a second direction Z, perpendicular both to the pivoting axis X and also to the first direction Y, and sliding in two corresponding pairs of second grooves 45 made in the second part 41 of the connection element 34.
  • a second eccentric element 46 of a known type, is interposed between the second part 41 of the connection element 34 and the intermediate element 43, and is partly housed in a through hole 47 of the second part 41 of the connection element 34.
  • the selective rotation of the second eccentric element 46 causes the displacement of the intermediate element 43 and of the mobile element 12 associated with it, in the second direction Z.
  • Two second clamping screws 48 inserted in two corresponding eyelets 49 of the second part 41 of the connection element 34 are suitable to clamp the intermediate element 43 with respect to the connection element 34 in the desired position.
  • Third clamping screws 50 are suitable to clamp the intermediate element 43 on the plate 35 and fourth clamping screws 51 are suitable to clamp the intermediate element 43 and the plate 35 on the mobile element 12 of the door or window 11.
  • the pivoting member 18 comprises a first cylindrical bushing 52 inserted in the cylindrical cavity 23 of the lower protuberance 20 and having a cylindrical seating 53 coaxial to the pivoting axis X, and an upper collar 54, which has an external diameter a little less than the internal diameter of the cylindrical cavity 23 and on which the lower part of the pivoting element 28 of the second hinging unit 17 rests.

  • a second adjustment in the first direction Y ( figs. 4 , 6 and 7 ), which in the example shown here is horizontal, is obtained by loosening the two first clamping screws 39, by rotating the first eccentric element 37 clockwise or anti-clockwise, which causes the lateral displacement to the right or to the left of the connection element 34 with respect to the pivoting element 28, and the new clamping in the desired position, by screwing the first clamping screws 39.
  • a third adjustment in the second direction Z ( figs. 4 , 8 and 9 ), which in the example shown here is also horizontal, but perpendicular to the first direction Y, is obtained by loosening the two second clamping screws 48, by rotating the second eccentric element 46 clockwise or anti-clockwise, which causes the lateral displacement to the right or to the left of the intermediate element 43 and the plate 35, and also of the mobile element 12 with respect to the connection element 34, and the new clamping in the desired position, by screwing the second clamping screws 48.
  • the hinge 10 comprises first adjustment means, consisting of the lower threaded grub screw 55, able to adjust the position of the second hinging unit 17 and the mobile element 12 in the direction of the pivoting axis X, second adjustment means consisting of the first eccentric element 37, able to adjust the position of the mobile element 12 in the first direction Y, perpendicular to the pivoting axis X, and third adjustment means consisting of the second eccentric element 46, able to adjust the position of the mobile element 12 in the second direction Z, perpendicular both to the pivoting axis X and also to the first direction Y.
  • first adjustment means consisting of the lower threaded grub screw 55, able to adjust the position of the second hinging unit 17 and the mobile element 12 in the direction of the pivoting axis X
  • second adjustment means consisting of the first eccentric element 37, able to adjust the position of the mobile element 12 in the first direction Y, perpendicular to the pivoting axis X
