Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an adjustable and indegationable hinge ramp for a door, including a refrigerated chamber door.
  • a detachable hinge is formed such that the door can be dislodged from its operating position by separating the hinge into two parts.
  • a detachable hinge comprises a first hinge secured to the door and a second hinge secured to the wall surrounding the space to be closed and capable of being dissociated from the first hinge. The extraction of the door is carried out by raising it along its axis of rotation to release the second hinge of the first hinge.
  • An unbreakable hinge as opposed to a detachable hinge, is formed such that it can not be separated into two parts by a simple movement of the door along its axis of rotation. This type of hinge is used when it is not desired that the door can be extracted simply, especially for safety.
  • the present invention relates to an indegationable hinge for pivotally opening door. Throughout the discussion below, the term “hinge” refers to an indegationable hinge.
  • a known elevation system consists of integrating an elevation ramp in each of the hinges respectively mounted on the wall and on the door.
  • the raising ramps have a complementary geometry capable of causing the displacement of a hinge relative to the other during the rotation of the door so that the door is raised when opening thereof.
  • the seal does not rub against the ground when opening the door.
  • hinges incorporating a raising system have the disadvantage of making visible and accessible from outside the hinge ramps of elevation as well as the stem running over the hinge. This accessibility is not satisfactory because dust can enter the hinge and cause malfunction or premature wear of the hinge. In addition, during the elevation, the raising ramps form a cavity accessible to any object or the fingers of a user. This type of hinge is therefore unreliable and dangerous.
  • an axial adjustment system can also be integrated with the hinges, in particular a setting along the axis of rotation of the door.
  • the stopper consists of a threaded plug cooperating with a threaded hole formed in one of the hinges.
  • the threaded plug is accessible from outside the hinge so that a tool can be inserted inside the hinge to manipulate the threaded plug.
  • the position of the lift ramp is adjusted by turning the screw plug directly.
  • hinges incorporating a threaded plug A major problem of hinges incorporating a threaded plug is that the hinge tends to go wrong during the repetitive use of the door, in particular because of an undesirable rotation of the threaded plug.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide an adjustable indegationable hinge ramp raises at least partially solving the aforementioned drawbacks.
  • the invention aims to provide an adjustable and indestructible hinge ramp increased improved adjustment is facilitated and reliable.
  • the adjusting member comprises a threaded portion capable of cooperating with a threaded portion of the stop member to move the abutment member along the hinge axis.
  • the adjustment housing and the stop member comprise first and second stop portions, respectively, the first and second stop portions being adapted to cooperate together to prevent rotation around the stop.
  • the first and second stop portions form at least two plane surfaces extending transversely to the hinge axis.
  • a support bearing housed in the through hole of the first support, the adjustment member extending inside the support bearing and being integral with the support bearing in rotation about the hinge axis , the support bearing comprising at least one tooth or a recess adapted to cooperate with a complementary shape formed by the first support to maintain an angular position of the adjustment member.
  • the support bearing comprises a third annular portion configured to project out of the inner wall of the first support.
  • first and second ramp members respectively comprise first and second ramp surfaces in complementary form and configured to be in contact with each other, each of the first and second ramp surfaces. comprising a recess or a relief such that the rotation of the second ramp member with respect to the first ramp member displaces the second ramp member along the hinge axis.
  • the hinge 10 for a door 11 with pivoting opening.
  • the hinge 10 comprises a first hinge 12 intended to be secured to a wall 13 located near the door 11 and a second hinge 14 intended to be secured to the door 11.
  • the first 12 and second 14 hinges are mounted movable one relative to the other to allow the rotation of the door 11 relative to the wall 13 along an axis of rotation coinciding with a hinge axis A to selectively obstruct or allow access to a confined space (not visible), for example a refrigerated room.
  • the first hinge 12 comprises a body 16 extending along the hinge axis A.
  • the body 16 is configured to be brought into contact and fixed on the wall 13 located near the door 11.
  • the first hinge 12 comprises also a first 18 and a second support 20 protruding out of the body 16 in a direction transverse to the hinge axis A.
  • the first 18 and second supports 20 are spaced from each other along the axis of hinge A so as to define a space between them to accommodate the second hinge 14.
  • the first 18 and second 20 supports comprise through holes formed along the hinge axis A so as to receive a rod 22 for guiding the second hinge 14 around the hinge axis A.
  • the second hinge 14 comprises a base 24 configured to be brought into contact and assembled with the door 11.
  • the base 24 is intended to be assembled to a side wall 26, or slice, of the door 11.
  • the second hinge 12 also comprises a third support 28 projecting from the base 24 in a direction transverse to the axis of hinge A so as to be disposed in the space formed between the first 18 and second 20 supports.
  • the third support 28 also comprises a through hole extending along the hinge axis A to cooperate with the threaded rod 22 so as to allow the rotation of the second hinge 14 relative to the first hinge 12 around the hinge hinge axis A.

  • the second hinge 14 is slidable along the hinge axis A in the space formed between the first 18 and second 20 supports during the rotation of the second hinge 14 by compared to the first hinge 12. In this way, a seal disposed in a lower part of the door 11 is not likely to rub against the ground and thus wear prematurely during the rotation of the door 11 around the hinge axis A.
  • the hinge 10 further comprises a first ramp member 32 formed in the first hinge 12 and a second ramp member 34 integral with the second hinge 14.
  • the first 32 and second 34 ramp members are adapted to cooperate together to move the second hinge 14 relative to the first hinge 14 along the hinge axis A between a low position and a high position during an angular displacement of the door 11 relative to the wall along the hinge axis A. It is therefore the relative displacement between the first 32 and second 34 ramp elements which makes it possible to elevate the door 11.
  • the first 32 and second 34 ramp members have a first 40 and a second 42 ramp surfaces, respectively, configured to contact each other when the third support 28 is installed between the first 18 and second 20 supports.

  • the first 40 and second 42 ramp surfaces are identical.
  • the first 40 and second 42 ramp surfaces are oriented so that when the door 11 is in the confined space closed position, the first 40 and second 42 ramp surfaces are fully in contact with each other , ie the reliefs 46 of the first ramp surface 40 are disposed inside the recesses 44 of the second ramp surface 42, and vice versa.
  • the reliefs 46 of the first 40 and second 42 ramp surfaces contact the ramps 48 so that the first 32 and second 34 ramp members move. relative to each other along the hinge axis A. Once the reliefs 46 of the first 40 and second 42 ramp surfaces are disposed against each other, the door 11 is in an elevated position .
  • first 40 and second 42 ramp surfaces may not be complementary in shape or identical but have any type of shape allowing the linear displacement of the second ramp member 34 when the door 11 is rotated.
  • the second ramp member 34 is integral with the third support 28.
  • the second ramp member 34 may be distinct from the third support 28 and housed in a recess formed in the third support 28.
  • the first ramp member 32 is disposed within an adjustment housing 36 formed in the second support 20 of the first hinge 12.
