SOLUTION: After inserting adapters 13, 14 into a cross-sectional U-shaped hinge arm 4 connected to a door 1, a shaft 11 is hooked on a seat plate 3 fixed to a furniture side face plate 2, and the adapters 13, 14 and the arm 4 are fixed to the plate 3 by a locker 8. Next, a plate 19 having a spiral groove on an under surface is jornalled to the adapter 14 to be fitted to a large gear 5, a pivot 16 arranged in the adapter 13 is inserted into the groove, and the gear 5 is projected from a side surface of the arm 4. Next, an adjusting screw 12 is thread-mounted on the arm 4, a neck part 30 of a head part 29 is inserted into slits 31, 32 of the adapters 13, 14, the neck part 30 is held by a catch 15 fitted to a large gear 6, and the gear 6 is projected from the side surface of the arm 4. When rotating the screw 12 by the gear 6, the arm 4 is lifted, and when rotating the gear 5, the spiral groove guides the pivot 16, the adapters 13, 13 relatively move, and the arm 4 moves in the depth direction. Thus, a position of the arm can be adjusted without using a tool.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an articulated lever or the like, which is connected to a locking part on the door side, for example, to a hinge pot, preferably by using an adapter without using a tool. Hinge having a hinge arm that can be fixed to the seat plate, wherein the position of the hinge arm is adjusted relative to the adapter in the depth direction of the furniture and / or in the side direction of the furniture using an adjustment device. To a hinge provided with an adjustable device.

[0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Such hinges are known from WO 86/02402. When installing the furniture door, it is sufficient to hang the hinge arm with the adapter on the seat plate via the adapter and turn it in the direction of the furniture side plate, so that the hinge is automatically turned on. Fixed to the seat plate. Attachment and removal of the hinge arm to and from the seat plate can be performed without tools. A screwdriver is required to adjust the position of the hinge arm in the depth direction of the furniture relative to the seat plate and laterally with respect to the furniture side plate.

From German Utility Model No. 6940349,
Hinges are known which have hinge arms which can be fixed to the seat plate, and the mounting plate is fitted with manually adjustable adjusting screws. However, in order to adjust the position of the hinge arm relative to the mounting plate, the screws securing the hinge arm to the mounting plate must be loosened. After making adjustments to this adjusting screw, the screw supporting the hinge arm must be retightened.

[0004] The problem to be solved by the present invention is that the position of the hinge arm can be adjusted on the seat plate without using a tool, and the hinge arm can be loosened before the adjustment, and then adjusted. The idea is to improve the form of the hinge mentioned at the beginning so that it does not need to be retightened.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to provide:
The adjusting devices each have one handle, with which the position of the hinge arm can be adjusted without tools relative to the adapter, with the hinge arm and / or another adapter. Is held in a form-fitting manner by the adjustment device.

One preferred embodiment of the invention takes into account that the handle is formed by a gear wheel which projects into both side webs of a U-shaped hinge arm each through one opening. are doing. The gear described above can be easily turned by hand.

The device is preferably formed as a self-clamping adjustment pinion.

Another embodiment of the invention provides that the adjusting device comprises a helically grooved plate, against which a pivot arranged on the adapter projects, which results in the Considering that the hinge arm moves in the depth direction of the furniture relative to the adapter when the plate is turned.

[0009] In another embodiment of the present invention, the handle comprises:
Preferably, the large gear is connected by an adjusting screw supported on a nut of the hinge arm, the adjusting screw being used for side adjustment of the hinge arm, and using the head of the adjusting screw to the adapter. It takes into account that a separate catch is preferably arranged between the adjusting screw and the handle.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. As is evident from the shape of the drawing, the hinge according to the invention is a joint lever 1
It has a hinge arm 4 connected to the hinge pot 7 via 7,18. The hinge pot 7 is inserted into a hole in the door 1 of the furniture.

The seat plate 3 is fixed to the furniture side plate 2 using, for example, a dowel.

In the embodiment shown, two hinged adapters 13, 14 are inserted into the hinged arm 4 which is formed in a U-shape. When the door 1 is mounted, the adapters 13 and 14 are mounted on the hinge arm 4.

In order to fix the door 1 to the side plate 2, the hinge arm 4 is hung on the seat plate 3 by the shaft 11 of the adapter 13, and then a rocker 8 pivotally supported on the shaft is provided. The hub 22 is turned around at the rear end of the hub 22 using the protrusion 21 of the hub 22 until the hub 22 is fixed to the rear end of the seat plate 3. Thus, the adapter 13 and the adapter 14 and the hinge arm 4 together with the adapter are fixed to the seat plate 3. Adapter 1
At approximately the center of 3 a pin 10 is provided which extends transversely to the adapter 13 and the seat plate 3 and is received in a cutout 23 of the seat plate 3 in the mounting position. Thereby, the adapter 13 and thus the adapter 14 and the hinge arm 4 are held on the seat plate 3 without clearance.

A plate 19 is pivotally supported by the adapter 14 and has a spirally extending groove 24 below it. A pivot 16 fixed to the adapter 13 projects into the groove. At this time, the pivot 16 is attached to the adapter 1
4 protrudes through the slit 25.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the plate 19 is formed in a hexagonal shape and is connected to the gear 5 in a form-fitting manner.
The large gear 5 has a web 26 on the outer periphery, and the web reduces the burden of rotating the large gear 5. In this case, the gear 5 projects through the opening 27 into both side webs of the hinge arm 4.

The hinge arm 4 is provided with an adjusting screw 12 for adjusting the side surface of the hinge arm 4 in a conventional manner at the front end of the hinge arm.
And the adjusting screw 12 is connected to the nut 2 of the hinge arm 4.
8 and both adapters 13, 14 engage with the head 29 of the nut. At this time, the adjusting screw 28
Is projected through slits 31 and 32 opened forward of the adapters 13 and 14.

The neck 30 of the adjusting screw 12 is
To maintain torsional resistance. The catch 15 is formed in a hexagonal shape like the plate 19, and is surrounded by the large gear 6 in a form-fitting manner. The large gear 6, like the large gear 5, has a web 33 on its outer circumference, which reduces the burden of rotation of the large gear 6 and projects to the hinge arm 4 through the opening 34.

The turning of the gear wheel 6 causes the adjusting screw 12 to rotate, and thereby the hinge arm 4 to be moved close to or lifted from the seat plate 3 in the usual way.

When the gear 5 rotates, the forcible rotation of the plate 19 causes the relative movement between the adapter 13 and the adapter 14 by guiding the pivot 16 into the groove 24, and This results in a linear adjustment of the hinge arm 4 in the depth direction of the furniture.

The adapters 13, 14 are provided with laterally projecting pivots 20 near the front end of the adapters, which project into slits 34 in the side webs of the hinge arm 4. The pivot 20 and the slit 34 limit the range of adjustment of the hinge arm 4 in the lateral direction, i.e. in a plane perpendicular to the furniture side panels.
