Conventionally, this type of hinge has a plurality of movable hinges, for example, one fixed part attached to a fixed plate part such as a side plate of the furniture body, and the other fixed part attached to a movable plate part such as a door plate of the furniture body. There are known structures that are rotatably connected by an arm and can open and close at an angle of 90 degrees or more. That is, for example,
As shown in FIG. 2, one ends of the first and second movable arms 4, 5 are rotated via support shafts 2, 3 at both ends of the fixed frame 1, which serves as one fixed part of the hinge body A. One end of the third and fourth movable arms 8, 9 is rotatably attached to the other end of the first and second movable arms 4, 5 via support shafts 6, 7. The third and fourth movable arms 8,
A fixed disk 11 having a mounting piece 10 serving as the other fixed portion is rotatably attached to the other end of the movable arm 9 via support shafts 12 and 13, and furthermore, the intersection portion of the first and fourth movable arms 9 is attached. The structure is such that they are rotatably connected by an intermediate shaft 14.

Then, attach one fixed frame 1 to the side plate 15 of the furniture body.
At the same time, the other fixing disk 11 is buried in the mounting recess 19 formed in the door plate 18 of the furniture body, and the screw 21 is inserted through the screw hole 20 of the mounting piece 10. It's starting to stick.

In this way, the door plate 18 is attached to the side plate 15 of the furniture body.
The movable arms 4, 5, 8, and 9 are connected so that they can be opened and closed, but in this case, when opening and closing the door plate 18, each movable arm 4, 5, 8, and 9 rotates and expands and contracts in the direction of opening and closing the door plate 18. Each of these movable arms 4, 5, 8,
There is a risk that clothing or the like will be caught between the door plates 9 and damaged, and if clothing or the like is caught, it will become difficult to open and close the door plate 18.

[Purpose of invention]

This idea was created with these points in mind.
By fitting a cover body formed in a shape that does not interfere with the movement of the hinge body onto the hinge body, the hinge body is reliably covered and clothing, etc., is not caught and damaged when the hinge body is operated. The purpose is to

The cover body has an accommodating portion for accommodating the one fixed portion side on one side, and a accommodating portion for accommodating the other fixed portion side on the other side communicating with the accommodating portion on the one side, and The present invention is characterized in that an engaging protrusion that engages with the movable arm on the one fixed portion side is integrally formed inside the lower ends of the left and right side plates of the one housing portion.

[Example of idea]

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described as shown in the accompanying drawings.

Reference numeral 25 denotes a cover body made of synthetic resin or the like, and this cover body 25 has an accommodating portion 26 formed on one side thereof for accommodating the fixed frame 1 side as one fixed portion of the hinge body A. This housing portion 26 includes an upper surface plate 27 that engages with the upper surface plate portion 9a of the fourth movable arm 9, and left and right side plates 28 that engage with the outside of the left and right side plate portions 9b of the fourth movable arm 9. The end plate 29 closes off one end of the left and right side plates 28 and one end of the upper plate 27, and is formed into a substantially rectangular shape with an open lower surface.

Further, on the other side of the cover body 25, an accommodating part 30 for accommodating the fixed disk 11 side having the mounting piece 10 as the other fixed part of the hinge main body A is formed in communication with the one accommodating part 26. There is. The accommodating portion 30 has a circular shape that is formed in series with the upper surface plate 27 and that protrudes upward to accommodate the tip portion 9c of the fourth movable arm 9 and the first and third movable arms 4 and 8. The arc-shaped upper surface plate 31 and the left and right side plates 32 formed in series with the left and right side plates 28 are formed in a substantially semicircular shape with an open bottom surface. It is formed larger than the one accommodating part 26 so that it can accommodate a movable arm that moves forward and backward.

Furthermore, an engaging protrusion 33 that engages with the lower edge 9d of the left and right side plate portions 9b of the fourth movable arm 9 is integrally formed inside the lower end of the left and right side plates 28 in one of the housing portions 26 of the cover body 25. It is formed.

Next, when attaching the cover body 25 to the hinge body A, first, as described above, one fixing frame 1 of the hinge body A is fixed to the side plate 15 of the furniture body with the screws 17, and the other fixing disc 11 is fitted into the mounting recess 19 of the door plate 18 of the furniture body, and the mounting piece 10 is fixed with the screw 21.

Next, when fitting the cover body 25 onto the hinge body A, fit the other accommodating part 30 of the cover body 25 onto one fixed part side of the hinge body A, and also fit this cover body 25 into the hinge body A. When the cover body 25 is pushed so as to be inserted toward the other fixed part side, the tips of the engagement protrusions 33 on both sides of the cover body 25 will be inserted into the fourth
When the cover body 25 is engaged with the lower edges 9d of the left and right side plate portions 9b of the movable arm 9 and further pushed, the cover body 25 remains engaged with the lower edges 9d of the engaging protrusions 33 on both sides. It is inserted into the hinge main body A to a predetermined position while sliding along this lower edge 9d.

As a result, one accommodating portion 26 of the cover body 25
Inside is one fixed part side of the hinge body A, that is,
The fixed frame 1, the second and fourth movable arms 5 and 9 are housed, and the other fixed part side of the hinge body A, that is, the first and third movable arms, are housed in the other housing part 30 of the cover body 25. The arms 4 and 8 and the tip portion 9c of the fourth movable arm 9 are housed, and the cover body 2 is housed in the upper surface plate portion 9a of the fourth movable arm 9.
