SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a back plate which solves the above-mentioned conventional problems and is effective in improving the design of the back of the hinge.

[0004]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention proposes a back plate of a hinge fixed to a back portion of a hinge for supporting an assembling material.

[0005]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS As a premise for explaining the back plate of the present invention, a spring hinge of a type suitable for application to the back plate will be described below with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawings. 1 and 2 show a spring hinge for explaining the present invention in a use state, and the spring hinge (7) is a leaf spring material having a base portion (7a) fixed to a back surface of a door (3). .

The summing support portion (7b) continuously and smoothly extends from the base portion (7a) (for example, in an arc shape) to enable the summing material (4) to be supported. For the spring hinge (7), a metal leaf spring material such as a thin stainless steel plate (preferably 0.1 to 0.3 mm) or a spring steel plate is used. However, in addition to metal, a synthetic resin plate material having spring characteristics (the thickness is determined according to the material) is also applicable. The summing support part (7b) is smoothly continuous from the base part (7a) as described above, but the overhanging inclination angle of the end part of the summing support part (7b) is the door (3) in a free state in which the summing material (4) is stationary.
Acute angle (less than 90 °) to the back of
To 75 °).

In the illustrated embodiment, the assembling support portion (7) is fixed to the back surface of the door (3) through the screw hole of the base portion (7a).
The dressing material (4) is fixed with screws (9) in the screw holes of b). However, other fixing means such as an adhesive, a double-sided adhesive tape, or welding may be used instead of the screw (9). Further, the spring hinge (7) is omitted in FIG. 2 and the base material (14) is used in FIG. 1, but this shows that the base material (14) is auxiliary and can be omitted.

Next, in the spring hinge (7), the upper surface of the summing material (4) near the tip is fixed to the tip of the summing support portion (7b). The fixing of the summing support portion (7b) near the tip and the summing material (4) near the tip is advantageous for securing the length of the summing support portion (7b) as a cantilever. .

Therefore, depending on the material of the leaf spring material, the distance of the assembling material (4) from the back surface of the door (3), and the like, it is not necessary to fix them to each other near the tips. Two or more of the above leaf spring members are used as a set to form a spring hinge (7) for supporting the assembling member (4). That is, another spring hinge (17) forming one set may be the same as the spring hinge (7), but the width of the one shown in FIG. 1 is narrowed.
The reason for this is that the spring hinge (7) ensures an elastic force and the other spring hinges (17) play an auxiliary role with respect to the elastic force.

That is, the spring hinge (17) is an auxiliary in terms of elastic force, but plays an important function of supporting the assembling material (4) together with the spring hinge (7). As described above, the spring hinges (7) (1) are attached to the back surface of the door (3).
7) is fixed and the dressing material (4) is inclined and overhanged and supported. When the door (3) is closed in this state, as shown in FIG. 2, the dressing material (4) abuts against the guide surface (10) such as the magnet catch (11) and is guided while being guided to the back surface of the other door (2). Break into.

The guide surface (10) of the assembling material (4) is not limited to the magnetic catch (11), but a top plate, a bottom plate, a shelf plate, and other projecting members having a protruding shape, a concave cam, and a linear contact surface are exclusively used. A member or the like can be used. When the door (3) is closed, the assembly support (7) of the spring hinge (7) is
b) will bend.

Next, when the door (3) is opened, the summing material (4) does not hit the other door (2) along the guide surface (10 along the guide surface (10) due to the elastic force of the bending of the spring hinge (7) ( 3 shows another embodiment of the spring hinge (17) of FIG.

That is, as described above, the spring hinge (17) may be supplementary with respect to its elastic force, but the spring hinge (17) of FIG. 3 tries to reversely utilize the elastic force and positively utilize the opposite force. It is a thing. Since the upper and lower spring hinges (7) and (17) support the assembling material (4) when the door (3) is opened, the elastic force of the bending of the spring hinge (7) (this elastic force is larger). ) Spring hinge (1
7) is curved and eventually becomes the same state as shown in FIG. 1 and the dressing material (4) is inclined as a whole.

The reason why the elastic force of the spring hinge (17) is supplementarily (FIG. 1) or the opposite direction (FIG. 3) is that the guide surface (10) shown in FIG. This corresponds to the fact that the force for pressing the assembling material (4) is applied only upward when it is provided (for example only above).
As shown in FIG. 3, when the spring hinge (17) having a linear shape is used in the free state, when the assembling material (4) is pushed from the guide surface (10), the curvature of the spring hinge (7) is eliminated (returning). Accordingly, the spring hinge (17) becomes linear in a free state, so that the spring hinge (1)
The pressing force of 7) acts to press the assembling material (4) against the back surface of the door (3) or the door (2), so that the assembling material (4) as a whole covers the door (3) from top to bottom. ) Or door (2)
You will be able to adhere to the back of the. Similarly, in the case of three hinges, for example, a normal spring hinge (7) curved upward at the upper end, an opposite spring hinge slightly curved in the reverse direction (downward) at the middle, and a straight line at the lower end. If a spring hinge (17) is used, even if the guide surface (10) is only on the upper side, the same effect can be obtained when the middle is curved to the lowermost side and a bow-shaped object adheres, and the lower end is the door (3) as described above. To the rear surface of the door (2) and the rear surface of the door (3) to the door (2) as a whole.

Based on the above description with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3, an application of the back plate of the hinge of the present invention to the spring hinge (7) will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 to 6. That is, the spring hinge (7) (as well as the hinge (17)) has a stopper material (8) for stopping the backward movement of the assembling material (4) on one or both sides (in the case of three or more, part or It is attached to all). That is, the stopper member (8) is attached in a state where the upper and lower ends of the back portion of the spring hinge (7) are connected.

As a mounting method, a hole is provided at the upper end of the stopper member (8), and the stopper member (8) is mounted so that it can be tilted with respect to the assembling member (4) by a countersunk screw (15). Next, the lower end of the stopper material (8) is
A narrow tail portion (8b) is projected from a) and the tail portion (8b) is inserted into the hole (7d) at the end of the base portion (7a) of the spring hinges (7) (17).

The body (8a) of the stopper material (8) is preferably thicker than the wall thickness of the spring hinge (7), and it is preferable that the stopper material (8) can withstand the required compression force. When the assembling material (4) is inclined and overhangs, the stopper material (8) has a countersunk screw (15) in the hole at the upper end and a spring hinge (7) with which the tail portion (8b) at the lower end is locked. The engaging means constituted by the hole (7d) stops the backward movement of the spring hinge (7) in the opposite direction and allows the forward movement to be engaged and attached to the spring hinge.

Next, the dressing material (4) (the base end is curved to form the curved portion R so that it can be easily followed when the spring hinge (7) is bent) is attached to the door (3) to the door (2). When the stopper material (8) is in close contact with the back surface of the spring hinge (7), its tail portion (8b) is pulled out from the hole (7d) of the spring hinge (7) as shown in FIG. The state of sleeping closely. The countersunk screws (15) are used to allow the stopper material (8) to tilt with respect to the assembling material (4) as described above.

Therefore, a pan head screw or the like may be used instead of the countersunk screw (15) as long as the stopper member (8) can be tilted by using a dish washer, a rubber ring, a spacer or the like corresponding to the dish. Tail part (8b) of stopper material (8)
The engagement state of the hole (7d) of the spring hinge (7) is such that the backward movement of the stopper material (8) is stopped at a fixed position and the forward movement is slidably pulled out.

Therefore, not only the combination of the tail portion (8b) and the hole (7d) but also various engaging means such as engaging a hook-shaped member with the groove of the mating member may be used. The stopper material (8) may be either inelastic or inelastic (metal, plastic, etc.), but the spring hinge (7) itself is flexible even if an inelastic material is used. Therefore, it is possible to move the stopper member (8) while sliding it.

By the way, as screws, flat head screws (15) (1
If 5) is used, if it is desired to reduce the number of other screws (9) to less than or equal to zero, the positions of countersunk screws (15) (15) are moved to the left and right and the screw (9) is used on the other side, (9)
There is a method of using it together with other fixing means such as a double-sided adhesive tape (with the flat head screws (15) and (15)). Next, regarding the support of the base portion (7a) of the spring hinge (7) near the summing support portion (7b) by the countersunk screw (15), as shown in FIG. 6, the hole (7c) of the spring hinge (7) is A cylindrical body (13) is provided on the lower surface of the position.

The upper end surface of the cylindrical body (13) is inclined in the outer peripheral direction, and the reason why this is desirable is that the curvature of the spring hinge (7) is absorbed by this inclination and the inclination of the countersunk screw (15). . Spring hinge (7) using cylinder (13)
The reason why the door is kept slightly lifted from the back surface of the door (3) is because the dressing material (4) is in close contact with the back surface of the door (3) or the door (2) during the movement of the dressing material (4). ) 'S base corner does not slide on the back of the door (3)
This is to lift it up.

Further, the hole (7c) of the spring hinge (7) is made slightly larger than the outer diameter of the screw portion of the flat head screw (15) to absorb the displacement of the position of the hole (7c) due to the movement of the spring hinge (7). It is possible. Next, the back plate (19) of the present invention is attached to the back of the stopper material (8) (in the case of FIGS. 1 to 3, the back of the leaf spring material itself of the spring hinge (7) itself) by adhesion, welding, double-sided adhesive tape, or the like. It is fixed by the fixing means (20).
Examples of the material of the back plate (19) include materials having flexibility such as vinyl chloride and non-woven fabric, or materials having inflexibility such as plastic and wood. Back plate (19)
As for the size of the stopper member (8), the width of the back and the length of the stopper member (8) are set so as to cover the tail portion (8b), and not only the design but also the function (the function of covering a portion that is easily caught) are appropriate. However, if the function can be ignored, such a restriction is not necessary, but the width may be made larger than the width of the back of the stopper member (8) to the width of the entire hinge as shown in FIG.

For example, a back plate (19) on which patterns, colors, character images, etc. are drawn as shown in FIG. 8 may be used.
FIG. 7 shows a hinge for supporting the dressing material, which rotates the movable member Q about an axis (which is called an auto hinge in the industry) (this hinge is a known hinge unlike the above-mentioned hinge). The back plate (1
9 shows an example in which 9) is fixed. The back part of the conventionally known hinge (70) is a part that does not touch the eyes of the user depending on the type of furniture, but if such a part has a design, it will rather catch the eyes of the user. It will contribute to the improvement of evaluation. Back plate (1
As the material of 9), there are materials having flexibility such as vinyl chloride and nonwoven fabric, or materials having inflexibility such as plastic and wood, as described above. By the way, the curved portion R of the dressing material (4) is directed toward the distal end, but this may also be done in the case of the spring hinge (7), and the bending portion R is at both the distal end and the base end. You may use (4).
