Description

The invention relates to a hinge for a posted on a body of a furniture movable furniture part according to the preamble of claim 1, and a piece of furniture with such a hinge.

State of the art

A known hinge for a hinged on a body of a furniture movable furniture part comprises a hinge arm, which is pivotally connected via a hinge mechanism with a hinge cup. The hinge arm is struck for example on a furniture body and the hinge pot on a furniture door. The hinge mechanism comprises a four-bar linkage and the four-bar linkages when closing the furniture door with a damping element, which is formed on the hinge cup. As a result, a movement of the furniture door is damped in the closing process of the furniture door.

The disadvantage is that the damping element mounted in the Condition is arranged protruding from the surface of the furniture body on the hinge.

Objects and advantages of the invention

The invention is based on the object to improve a hinge for a movable furniture part, which is posted on a body of a piece of furniture.

This object is solved by the features of claim 1 and claim 13.

In the dependent claims advantageous and expedient embodiments of the invention are given.

The invention is based on a hinge for a hinged on a body of a furniture movable furniture part, in particular for a door or flap. The hinge has a first attachment member, which is pivotally connected via a hinge mechanism with a second attachment member, wherein the hinge mechanism comprises at least one articulated lever which is pivotally connected to the first attachment member via a first bearing element.

The first attachment member is in the mounted state of the hinge on the furniture advantageously on the movable furniture part, e.g. a door, struck and the second attachment to the furniture body. A closing movement of the movable furniture part from an open position to a closed position on the furniture body thus corresponds, for example, to a closing movement of the hinge.

The essential aspect of the invention is now to be seen in that the articulated lever is rotatably mounted on the first bearing element.

This allows a pivoting movement of the articulated lever in a Rotational or rotational movement of the bearing element to be transformed or reshaped.

Preferably, the hinge mechanism comprises a first and a second toggle lever. The joint mechanism may in particular be designed as a four-bar linkage.

A first articulated lever may be fixedly connected to the first bearing element. Advantageously, the first articulated lever is attached to the first bearing element, glued, screwed, riveted and / or welded.

In an advantageous variant of the invention, the first bearing element has an eccentric member, which acts on a damping element. Thereby, a rotational movement of the hinge mechanism of the hinge can be transferred into a particular linear damping movement of the hinge. In particular, a rotational movement of the bearing element in a particular linear damping movement of the damping element can be transmitted. The damping movement of the damping element takes place, for example, along an axis of the damping element.

Advantageously, the damping element is fixed, in particular positionally fixed relative to a housing of the first attachment element, arranged on an outer side of a side wall of the housing, for example plugged, screwed and / or riveted. The first attachment member is e.g. designed as a hinge cup.

It is also conceivable that the damping element is arranged in the interior of the housing of the first attachment member, for example on an inner side of the side wall of the hinge cup.

It is further proposed that the eccentric member is rotatably mounted on the first bearing element. This has the advantage that a rotation of the bearing element directly into a rotation of the Eccentric organ is implemented. For example, the eccentric member is glued, screwed, riveted and / or welded to the first bearing element.

Moreover, it is advantageous that the first attachment element comprises a diaphragm element and the damping element, in the assembled state of the hinge on the furniture, is formed on the side surface of the diaphragm element facing the furniture on the first attachment element.

The first attachment element comprises, for example, a hinge cup and the diaphragm element. About the panel element, the first mounting element on the furniture, for example, on the flap or door, be attached. For example, the panel element is designed in several parts.

Advantageously, the damping element is arranged on the panel member such that in the assembled state of the hinge or the first attachment element on the furniture, the damping element for a user of the furniture is not visible.

For example, the damping element is arranged on the outside of the side wall of the hinge cup, that in the mounted state of the hinge on the furniture, the damping element is covered by the panel member and is not visible to a user of the furniture. Because, for example, viewed from the top of the furniture, the diaphragm element of the furniture-mounted hinge protrudes beyond the contour of the damping element.

It also proves advantageous that the first bearing element is designed as a shaft. For example, the first bearing element on the first attachment member is movable, in particular, for example, rotatable about its longitudinal axis, stored. A connected to the bearing element articulated lever is thus pivotally mounted and connected to the bearing element eccentric member is thus rotatably mounted. This allows a torque of Articulated lever advantageously transmitted via the shaft on the eccentric.

An advantageous embodiment of the hinge is characterized in that a damping element and / or a bearing element and / or an eccentric member can be retrofitted to the hinge. As a result, the function of the hinge can be extended as needed.

The hinge may be configured such that a damping element and / or a bearing element and / or an eccentric member is arranged, for example, interchangeable, detachable and / or replaceable. Advantageously, a hinge function of the hinge is provided without an arranged damping element and / or an arranged eccentric member.

In an advantageous variant of the hinge, the eccentric member is mounted on an outside of the housing of the hinge, e.g. an outer side of a hinge cup, arranged on the first bearing element. As a result, the eccentric member act directly on the damping element. For example, the eccentric member is firmly connected to the damping element.

It is also advantageous that the eccentric member has a guide member.

Advantageously, the guide member is configured as an outer web or link guide. For example, the guide member is arranged on a side surface or on an outer edge of the eccentric member such that the eccentric member acts in particular upon a rotational movement of the bearing member on the damping element.

In an advantageous variant of the eccentric element, the guide member, in particular the outer web or the link guide, performs an eccentric movement. The eccentric can in its outer contour of a lateral When viewed in the form of a view, it can be configured drop-shaped and the guide element can be designed as a partial region of the drop contour. As a result, an effect of the eccentric member on the damping element, for example in the course of a closing movement, be strengthened.

According to an advantageous modification of the invention, a guide element is formed on the damping element.

Preferably, the guide element is designed such that the guide member and / or the eccentric member and / or the bearing element couple with the guide member in a manner that a closing movement of the hinge, in particular the hinge mechanism of the hinge or in the assembled state of the hinge on the furniture a closing movement of the movable furniture part, is damped.

It is also conceivable that the damping element and the eccentric member are connected to one another via the guide member and / or the guide element, in particular are firmly connected to each other.

For example, a guide and / or a contour is formed on the guide element.

The eccentric member and / or the guide member, for example, interact with the link and / or the contour of the guide element such that the rotational movement of the bearing element and / or the eccentric member is converted into a linear movement of the guide element. Thus, a damping effect of the damping element, during a closing movement of the hinge and / or in the assembled state of the hinge on the furniture during a closing movement of the movable furniture part, can be achieved.

Furthermore, it is advantageous that a control element is formed on the eccentric member.

The control member is formed on the eccentric member and / or the bearing member, for example, in a manner that it acts eccentrically on the damping element. Advantageously, it is an eccentrically arranged pin which moves in the arranged on the damping element guide element, for example, a gate of the guide element.

It is further proposed that the hinge mechanism comprises a second bearing element and on the second bearing element, a further eccentric member is formed.

Preferably, the second bearing element is formed on the second attachment member and the first toggle lever is pivotally connected via the second bearing member to the second attachment member. In addition, a further damping element may be present on the second attachment element, which may advantageously cooperate with the further eccentric element of the second bearing element. This has the advantage that both a closing movement and an opening movement of the hinge and / or in the mounted state of the hinge on the furniture, a closing and opening movement of the movable furniture part is damped.

It also proves advantageous that the second bearing element is arranged on the first attachment element.

For example, the second bearing element is movably mounted as a shaft on the first attachment element, alternatively, the second bearing element may be formed as a fixed hinge axis and / or bearing pin and / or bearing pin.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the hinge of the second hinge lever of the hinge mechanism is coupled to the second bearing element, in particular firmly connected.

By a differently configured rotational movement of the first bearing element relative to a rotational movement of the second bearing element in a closing or opening movement of the Hinge and / or an advantageous embodiment of a single eccentric on the first and on the second bearing element, the single eccentric can advantageously perform an eccentric-acting movement and coupled with a damping element such that movement of the hinge and / or in the mounted state of the hinge on the furniture Movement of the movable furniture part, in particular a closing movement of the hinge and / or the movable furniture part is damped.

A hinge 1 according to the invention comprises an attachment element which is designed as a hinge arm 2, a further attachment element which is designed as a housing 3, comprising a hinge cup 4 and an aperture element 5 arranged on the hinge cup 4, and articulated levers 6, 7 which form parts of a four-bar linkage and hingedly connect the hinge arm 2 and the housing 3 via bearing elements 8-11 ( Figures 1-4 ).

On an outer side 12 of the housing 3, in particular of the hinge cup 4, an eccentric member 13 is arranged on the extended bearing element 10. The eccentric member 13 is fixed, in particular rotatably connected to the bearing element 10. The bearing element 10 is preferably designed as a shaft and rotatably mounted on the hinge cup 4. In addition, the bearing element 10 is rotatably connected to the articulated lever 6.

The bearing element 11 is e.g. designed as a bolt or shaft and pinned with the hinge cup 4 rotatably. The articulated lever 7 is rotatably mounted on the bearing element 11.

Furthermore, a damping element 14 is formed on the outside of the housing 12, comprising a housing 15 and a damper tappet 16. Advantageously, the damping element 14 is designed as an oil damper.

On the outer side 12 of the housing 3, a holding member 17 may be fixedly arranged in the form of a pin. The holding member 17 is connected via a spring 18 with the damper plunger 16 of the Damping element 14 connected.

The hinge arm 2 of the hinge 1 can from an open position of the hinge 1 ( FIGS. 1, 2 ) about a middle position ( FIG. 3 ) in a closed position ( FIG. 4 ) are offset or pivoted, and / or vice versa.

In the open position, the eccentric member 13 and the damper plunger 16 of the damping element 14 are not in contact with each other, in particular, the two do not couple with each other. The spring 18 is relaxed, or is at least under a relatively low bias and the damping element 14 is in a prestressed state.

The two similar hinges 1 are mounted on a furniture 19 and connects the furniture door 20 with the furniture body 21 hinged ( FIG. 9 ). If a user closes the furniture door 20 on the furniture 19, the hinge 1 is also moved from the open position via the central position into the closed position.

The eccentric member 13 has in a side view a e.g. teardrop-shaped contour. A partial region of the teardrop-shaped contour is an outer edge of an eccentrically acting surface 22 of the eccentric member 13. The partial region may be circular in outline, elliptical or in another curved shape.

The eccentric member 13 is arranged on the bearing element 10, that a rotation of the bearing element 10 and thus of the eccentric 13, in particular during a closing movement of the hinge 1, the surface 22, for example in the region of the center position of the hinge 1 in contact with a pressure surface 23 of the damper tappet 16th comes. From the moment the contact is received, the eccentric element 13 exerts a compressive force on the damper plunger 16 through the surface 22 in the further closing movement. As a result, the rotational movement of the bearing element 10 is transmitted in a linear movement of the damper plunger 16.

Due to the damping, elastic and / or resilient design of the damping member 14, the damper plunger 16 counteracts the pressure force of the eccentric member 13 with an oppositely directed, advantageously smaller force. As a result, the closing movement of the hinge 1 and thus e.g. also dampened the closing movement of the furniture door 20.

In the closing movement of the hinge 1, the spring 18 is tensioned by the movement of the damping member 14. In this way, the spring 18 additionally acts on the closing movement of the hinge 1 and thus e.g. Also the closing movement of the furniture door 20 advantageously counteracting.

Advantageously, the spring 18, in an opening operation of the hinge 1, a relaxation process of the damping element 14 by a tensile force, which, for example. In this way, the damper plunger 16 of the damping element 14 is comparatively faster again in a starting position for a renewed closing operation of the hinge first

In a further variant of a hinge 24, a pin-shaped control member 26 is eccentrically arranged on a further eccentric disc 25, which is arranged on the bearing element 10. The control member 26 is spaced from the eccentric disc 25 to a rotational axis of the bearing member 10, for example. As a result, during a rotation of the eccentric disk 25, the control member 26 moves about an axis of rotation of the bearing element 10, which is designed as a shaft, in a circular path about the axis of rotation (FIG. FIGS. 5 to 7 ).

At a damper plunger 27 of a damping element 28 of the hinge 24, a guide member 29 is arranged in the form of a plate with a banana-shaped inner contour or a curved slot. In the inner contour of the guide element 29, the control member 26 is guided. In addition, the damping element 28 via screws 30, 31 on the underside of the panel member 5, invisible in the assembled state of the hinge 24 on the furniture 19 to a user, attached ( FIG. 8 ).

By the example, at least partially circular movement of the control member 26 in an opening or closing movement of the hinge 24 and the advantageous embodiment of the inner contour of the guide member 29, the control member 26 so coupled to the guide member 29 that a rotational movement or pivotal movement of the hinge arm 2 of the hinge 24 is transmitted in a linear movement of the damping element 28. As a result, an opening and / or closing movement of the hinge 24 is advantageously damped.
