Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a hinge and a mounting structure for a folding door making use of the hinge capable of solving such a problem that a mounting plate of the hinge in the conventional Buddhist altar is exposed to the front of the Buddhist altar in a state opening a folding door so that the hinge can be seen from worshipers and that there are many persons having a sense of incompatibility between a showy impression resulting from the gilded hinge and a honest feeling worshipping ancestors because the hinge is usually gilded to practically give the showy impression. <P>SOLUTION: When the folding door 45 of the Buddhist altar 33 is opened, a plate 47 is put on the other plate 49 so as to cover the other plate 49. Hence the mounting plate 53 of the hinge 51 is set behind the plate 47, so that it can not be seen from the worshipers toward the front of the Buddhist altar. Bar- shaped bodies 64 are provided on the side plates 43, but they can be scarcely seen from worshipers. Accordingly, a design acceptable from every person without resistance can be obtained. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION A hinge 31 and a folding door mounting structure using the hinge 31 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5. This hinge 31 is 3 on the altar
Used for 3. The main body 35 of the Buddhist altar 33 has an opening 37 at the front.
A mounting table 39 and a shelf 41 are provided in the main body 35. The left and right side plates 43 of the body 35 are provided with folding doors 4.
5 are connected via a hinge 31. Folding door 45 is 2
The plate members 47 and 49 are connected to each other via a hinge 51. This hinge 51 is of a type in which a pair of conventional mounting plates are openably and closably connected via a shaft.

Since the hinges 31 having the plate members 49 of the left and right folding doors 45 attached to the side plates 43 are symmetrical, the hinge 31 having the left plate member 49 attached to the side plate 43 is a typical example in FIGS. 2 and 3. As described below. Reference numeral 53 indicates a mounting plate, and the mounting plate 53 has three through holes 55 formed therein. The through hole 55 has a tapered inner peripheral portion. Further, a shaft penetrating portion 57 is integrally formed on the mounting plate 53, and the shaft penetrating portion 57 is formed in a cylindrical shape.

Reference numeral 59 indicates a shaft, and the shaft 59 is inserted into the shaft penetrating portion 57, and both ends of the shaft 59 are formed in the shaft penetrating portion 5.
It projects from 7. Shaft holding portions 61 and 63 are fixed to a portion of the shaft 59 protruding from the shaft penetrating portion 57.
9 is prevented from coming off from the shaft penetrating portion 57. Two through holes 65 are formed in the shaft holding portions 61 and 63, respectively. The inner peripheral portion of the through hole 65 is tapered.
The rod-shaped body 6 is formed by the shaft penetrating portion 57 and the shaft holding portions 61 and 63.
4 are configured.

Reference numeral 67 indicates a countersunk screw serving as a fixing member that is inserted through the insertion hole 55 of the mounting plate 53, and reference numeral 69 indicates a countersunk screw serving as a fixing member that is inserted into the through holes 65 of the shaft holding portions 61 and 63. Show. The plate screws 67 and 69 form a fixing member. The mounting plate fixing means has three through holes 5
It is composed of 5 and 3 plate screws 67. The rod-shaped body fixing means is composed of four through holes 65 and four countersunk screws 69.

Next, the mounting structure 71 of the folding door 45 using the hinge 31 will be described. The folding door attachment structure 71 is applied to attach the plate member 49 to the side plate 43. Figure 2
As shown in FIG. 5, the plate member 49 is formed with a recess 72 for accommodating the mounting plate 53 and a part of the rod-shaped body 64. Further, the side plate 43 is formed with a concave portion 73 for accommodating a part of the rod-shaped body 64.

The hinge 31 is housed in the recesses 72 and 73, and the countersunk screw 67 is inserted into the through hole 55 of the mounting plate 53 and screwed into the plate material 49. Further, the countersunk screw 69 is inserted into the through hole 65 and screwed into the side plate 43. Since the inner peripheral portions of the through holes 55 and 65 are tapered as described above, the heads of the countersunk screws 67 and 69 are engaged with the through holes 55 and 65, and the mounting plate 53 is attached to the plate member 4.
9 and the shaft holder 61 is fixed to the side plate 43.
Accordingly, the plate member 49 is openably and closably connected to the side plate 43 via the hinge 31.

As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, when the folding door 45 is opened, the plate 47 of the Buddhist altar 33 overlaps so as to cover the plate 49. For this reason, the mounting plate 53 of the hinge 51 is hidden behind the plate member 47, and cannot be seen by those who worship the front of the altar 33. Further, although the side plate 43 is provided with the rod-shaped body 64, it is almost invisible to the worshipers. Therefore, it is possible to obtain a design that can be accepted by anyone without resistance.
Note that when the folding door 45 is closed, the opening 37 is covered so that the end surfaces of the plate material 47 and the plate material 49 face each other as shown by a virtual line in FIG.

Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described in detail above, the specific configuration is not limited to this embodiment, and there are modifications of the design within the scope not departing from the gist of the present invention. Is also included in the invention. For example, although the example of applying the hinge of the present invention to a Buddhist altar has been shown in the above-described embodiment, the present invention is not limited to this and may be a place where a conventional hinge is used, such as furniture and a door of a building. For example, it can be used anywhere.

[0017]

As described above, according to the hinge of the present invention,
It is possible to obtain a design that is acceptable to anyone on the Buddhist altar.
