Description

The present invention relates to a cabinet, in particular a cabinet of

  kitchen, having a support which carries a trash can, is fixed to a side wall of a compartment of the cabinet by means of fasteners and trunnions and can pivot on a vertical axis, as well as a lid which cooperates with this bin, can pivot in the compartment on a horizontal axis and which, when the door of the cabinet is opened, is automatically separated from the opening of the trash and, when closing the door,

  is automatically folded on this opening.

  There are a large number of control mechanisms for manipulating the lid depending on the pivotal movement of the trash or the cabinet door so that, when removing the bin from the compartment, the lid is automatically raised and that, when we put the trash in the compartment by doing

  rotate, the lid is automatically folded over the

the green of this trash.

  In all known mechanisms, the cover is fixed to a side wall of the cabinet, independently of the support, by means of particular fasteners.

  in the compartment, it is necessary to take special care

  Carefully give these fasteners of the lid the correct position relative to the fasteners of the support This dependence of fasteners complicates

  the mounting of the support and the cover in the compartment.

  The invention relates to a mechanism for controlling the

  cupboard for the aforesaid type, which requires, for fixing this cover in the compartment, no separate fastener connecting it to the side wall of this compartment and which therefore greatly facilitates mounting in the latter while allowing the cover to move automatically

  according to the displacement of the support of the trash.

  According to the invention, the cover is connected by a hinge to a bearing arm, a head pin disposed near the opening of the bin is inserted into this pad; the arm is applied against the side wall of the cabinet compartment, without being able to rotate, via a support member; the support is integral in rotation of the pin; the head of

  this one has on its upper side two elements of

  pin-shaped chase, which are disposed on a diameter of this head and which are parallel to the pivot axis of the lid when the support occupies its internal storage position; and a pull rod is hooked to the hooking member closest to the door of the cabinet, the other end of this rod being hooked to the lid on a bisector which intersects the axis of the trunnion

  and is perpendicular to the pivot axis of this lid.

  With this conformation, the trunnion mounted in the

  the opening of the trash can assumes the function of

  cover, while the support organ

  fixation and immobilisation in rotation in the

  from the cabinet without additional fasteners.

  As this trunnion pivots in synchronism with the support ,.

  it is possible to make him move the pull rod connected to the lid The two fastening elements of the trunnion head allow a simple way of controlling

  this lid when the bin swings dextrorsum and sinis-

  trorsum This means that the bin support can be mounted on the left wall of the compartment as well

than on the right wall.

  According to one characteristic, it is possible to reduce the number of parts required, by making the cover secured to the bearing arm via a

  ear and a fold forming a hinge.

  According to another feature, for the support member to support the cover by preventing it from

  turn, in the two modes of fixing the support in the -

  compartment, this organ can be hung on the arm of

  sinet with two plug-in connection points, perpendicular

to each other.

  In a simple embodiment, in order to connect the pull rod to the lid, and to allow it to be hooked to one or other of the fastening elements of the trunnion head, the end of this adjacent rod this trunnion forms a loop and can be hooked to either one or the other of these elements, the other end of the rod being bent and being introduced from the top into a hole in this lid and

  a lock washer being fixed on the part of this end

  which projects under the lid.

  According to another characteristic, if the

  beautiful is round and if the bisector is that of the corner of the compartment formed between the side wall thereof and the door of the cabinet, and if the insertion locations of the support member on the arm pad are parallel, one to this side wall and the other to this closed door,

  the volume of the compartment is used to the maximum, because the

  beautiful can then be very close to this side wall

and that door.

  According to another characteristic, so that the trash

  inserted into the support does not interfere with the pivoting,

  sinet of the arm and a hinge plate of the support, in which the trunnion passes, are arranged outside the

outline of the trash.

  The mechanism according to the invention for controlling the

  vercle is usable whatever the configuration of the support If it is itself a container, it must also be articulated still near the bottom by means of a fastener and a pin, as shown for example DE-A-1 917 685 The separate hinge for the lid complicates and considerably increases the

mounting of this known support.

  As described in document DE-A-2 807 688, it has already been given to the support of the trash the conformation of a support plate This plate is fixed to the side wall of the compartment of the cabinet via a trunnion and two fixing brackets To articulate the cover on this side wall, it is also necessary, with this

  known support, separate fasteners.

  The mechanism according to the invention for controlling the

  vercle offers the possibility of simplifying much the support

  and its articulation, if we give to this support the conformation

  a frame that is adapted to the outer contour of the

  beautiful just below an outer rim thereof, if the frame is secured to a hinge plate and if the pin inserted in this plate is integral in rotation of said frame to further improve the articulation , the journal inserted in the bearing and in the hinge plate of the frame is pivotally mounted in spans of two horizontal branches of a single stirrup-shaped fastener To mount the support in the

  compartment of the cabinet, all that is required is a single fastener

  which requires no alignment to other fasteners.

  According to another characteristic, to prevent

  dear the trunnion to be driven involuntarily from the caliper

  by shaking, the branch of the fixing bracket

  the support forms a first arm of reach, the second-

  arm being constituted by a leg cut in the branch

  transversely and folded parallel to the lateral branches.

  The lower branch of the stirrup goes under the end

bottom of the trunnion.

  In order to fix the stirrup to the side wall

  its branches have at their end brackets angled outwards, which are screwed to this

side wall.

  For the bracket to pivot with the cabinet door,

  simply mount on the frame, symmetrically to the bisection

  each guide groove in which is engaged a drive cleat fixed to the inner face of the door, these guide grooves from the quadrant shared by the bisector and extending into the quadrant respectively adjacent to the frame; The two slides still make it possible to connect the door of the cupboard and the support, that this one is fixed to the wall of right or that of left

compartment.

  So that the cleat can be engaged in the

  smooth, these are arranged under the frame and this cleat

  vertically is introduced from bottom to top in the guide groove.

  corresponding step, said cleat being mounted on a leg

  which is fixed, and advantageously screwed, on the inner face.

  the door with a fixing plate. A non-limiting example of the invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:

  Figure 1 is a plan of the trash and dump

buckle in retracted position

  Figure 2 is a partial section through the line II-

  II of Figure 1, showing the articulation of the support and the closed position of the lid;

  Figure 3 is a plan of the garbage can and the cover

  key in outer position of use; and

  Figure 4 is a partial section through line IV-

  IV of Figure 3, representing, in addition to the articulation of

  support, the lid in the open position.

  The bin 10 used in the embodiment

  FIGS. 1 to 4 are round and present at its upper end

  The support is a frame 12 formed of a bent tube This frame 12 extends over three quarters of the outer contour of the bin 10, just below the rim 11, and that shows well in Figure 1 In the quadrant remained free of this bin 10, the ends of the frame are extended tangentially and are connected to a wafer 13 hole

  of articulation, as shown in the section of FIG.

  The hinge hole of this plate 13 is located outside the outline of the bin 10 and on the bisector

48 of the adjacent quadrant.

  The support is articulated on the lateral wall 41 of the

  compartment of the cabinet by means of a pin 21 and a single fastener 14 This member 14 in the form of stirrup has at the end of its lateral branches 18 and 42 fastening tabs 15 and 16 bent outwards, which allow to screw it to the wall 41 A socket of

-2 4716

  bearing 19 is housed in the upper lateral branch 18, which serves as the first bearing arm, while the second bearing socket 20 of the journal 21 is mounted in a tab 17, which is cut in the base 43 of the body 14 and folded parallel to the first bearing arm forming the second bearing arm The two aligned sleeves 19 and have an outer collar and are inserted from above into the holes of the arms, which retain them The lower side branch 42 passes under the lower end of the trunnion

  21, so that it can not slide involuntarily.

  If the bin 10 has no lid, the pin 21 is inserted until its head 22 is applied against

the plate 13.

  If a cover 30 cooperates with the trash can 10, it

  is also articulated on the trunnion 21

  carries an ear 46-which is extended by the arm 32 by means of a fold 31 constituting a hinge Le

  pad 45 is shaped on this arm 32 and receives the

  21 before it is introduced into the hole of the wafer 13 and the bearing sleeves 19 and 20 The arm 32 has two locations, arranged at right angles,

  fastening to a support member 33, so that

  it can be applied against the left side wall as well as against the right one. It is advantageous for this purpose that the member 33 can be easily hooked to the arm 32 In this way, the lid 30 is held in the compartment without being able to rotate and can be raised and folded by pivoting on the hinge 31 But this requires that the frame 12 is made integral in rotation of the pin 21, which indicates the reference number 44 (Figure

  4) It is possible to do this in a variety of ways to

  nevertheless nonetheless to release this pin 21.

  A pull rod 25 is fixed on the upper face

  the top of the cover 30, along the bisector 48.

  bent 27 is introduced from above into a hole 28.

  A lock washer 47 is mounted on the part of this

  end 27 protruding from the underside of the neck.

  30, so that the pulling rod 25 is positively retained thereon On the upper face of the head 22 of the pin 21 are formed two hooking elements 23 and 24 in the form of pins, on which the other loop-shaped end 26 of the rod 25 can be hooked at will These fastening elements 23 and 24 are arranged on a diameter of the head 22 which is parallel to the hinge 31 and therefore perpendicular to the bisector 48 when the trash can 10 and frame 12 occupy their inner position

  under the lid 30 The rod 25 gives the neck

  vircle 30 enough freedom to close the opening of

  the trash can 10 as shown in FIG.

  A driving lug 37 is fixed on the inside face of the door 40 of the cabinet, via a fixing plate 38, screws 39 and a support lug 36. This lug 37 is guided through a groove 35 of

  slide 34, which is attached to the frame 12 In the form of

  As shown, the door 40 of the cabinet is hinged to the right on the side wall 41 The slider 34 extends from the quadrant that the bisector 48 cuts in half, and extends into the next quadrant in the dextral direction. When the door is opened 40, the cleat 37 carries with it the frame

  12 and thus the bin 10, moving in the groove 35.

  When the door 40 is open, virtually the entire opening of the bin 10 is disengaged, as shown in Figure 3 The pin 21 also turned sinistrorsum of

    As the hooking member 23 has spread the tractive rod

  25 of the lid 30, this rod raises the lid to the extreme open position, as shown in Figure 4 In this position of the pin 21, the hooking elements 23 and 24 are on the bisector 48 When

  it closes the door 40, this pin 21 also turns dextror-.

  sum of 90 and the rod 25 sufficiently releases the lid 30 so that it closes again the opening of the bin 10, and

as shown in Figure 2.

  If the frame 12 is articulated on the left wall of a compartment of the cabinet, the support member 33 is hooked to the arm 32 at a location offset by 90, and the pull rod 25 is hooked to the The door of the cabinet is then hinged to the left on the compartment and carries with it in the same manner the frame 12 For this purpose, the frame 12 comprises, symmetrically to the bisector 48, another slide 34. 'we open

  the door 40, the frame 12 then pivots dextrorsum and the

  rillon 21 rotates so as to distance the fastening element 24 of the lid 30 It is thus raised when the door

  40 is open and closed when closed.

  It is possible, by removing the pin 21, to release the frame 12, the trash 10 and the lid 30 of

  the fixing member 14, with the arm 32 and the support member

  33, and to remove them from the cabinet compartment It is also easy to put them back in this compartment. The lid 30 and the frame 12 are fixed to the pin 21 before inserting it into the bearing bushes 19 and 20

of the fastener 14.

  It goes without saying that it is possible, without departing from the scope of the invention, to make various modifications.

  to the cabinet shown and described.
