JPH074133A - Structure of right/left opening door - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To simplify the structure of a right/left opening door by holding vertical shafts which are mounted at the right and left side edge parts of a door by means of horizontal connecting rods which move pivotally on an axial line coxial with the respective opposing shafts and pivotally moving any of the horizontal connecting rods. CONSTITUTION:When the left side of a door 1 is opened, the door 1 which is supported by a supporting rod 6a is rotated, dround the fixing part 5a serving as its rotation center by a horizontal connecting rod 3a. When the right side of the door 1 is opened, the door 1 which is supported by the supporting rod 6b is rotated around the fixing part 5b serving as its rotation center by a horizontal connecting rod 3b. It is thus possible to install any object with such a mechanism at any place, and save a labor of replacing a hinge so as to change a door opening direction, and the door does not come off even when it is pulled in right/left directions at the same time, to dispose an operation panel, a display panel and so on onto the door by passing a cord through the connecting rod because the door is connected to its body permanently by means the connecting rod, further to provide cost reduction owing to its simple structure, and to prevent its breakage.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a door structure that opens left and right.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Recently, in a home electric appliance such as a refrigerator, furniture, or a storage cabinet, a door that can be opened left and right can be opened either left or right to improve convenience during storage and removal. Has been put to practical use. However, the structure of the conventional double-door door structure is complicated, and in the conventional door structure, the increase of the manufacturing cost and the necessity of the maintenance are major problems.

An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional door structure, and to provide a new left and right double door structure which is simple in structure, easy to maintain, and less expensive to increase. I am trying.

[0004]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention has a door structure which is opened left and right, and support rods are hung vertically on the upper and lower sides of the door and connected thereto. The horizontal connecting rod allows horizontal rotation by matching the upper and lower rotary shafts on the opposite left and right fixed parts, and the horizontal connecting rod that connects to the supporting rod on either the left or right side is the supporting rod on the other side and the horizontal connecting rod. (EN) Provided is a door structure of left-right opening, which is characterized in that a fixed portion for rotating a rod is detoured and bent.

[0005]

According to the present invention, the upper and lower rotating shafts are made to coincide with each other by the above-mentioned structure, and the door can be opened left and right with a simple structure.

[0006]

The present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the following examples. FIG. 1 is a front view illustrating a door structure of the present invention, and FIGS. 2 and 3 are top views illustrating a state in which the left and right sides are opened. For example, in Figure 1,
As illustrated in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, in the door structure of the present invention, the support bars (6a) (6
b) is hung vertically and connected to it. Horizontal connecting rods (3a) (3
By b), the upper and lower rotary shafts (4) are aligned with the left and right fixed parts (5a) and (5b) so that they can be horizontally rotated.

In this structure, the horizontal connecting rod (3a) connected to one of the left and right sides, that is, the left side supporting rod (6a) in the examples of FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, has the other side. The support rod (6b) and the horizontal connecting rod (3b) are fixed to a fixed portion (5b) for turning, and are bent upward and downward. Thereby, the horizontal connecting rods (3a) (3b)
Are arranged in a vertically overlapping relationship as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.

The fixing parts (5a) and (5b) are attached to the main body (2) on which the door (1) is arranged. In the above structure, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, when the left side of the door (1) is opened, the door (1) supported by the supporting rod (6a) is fixed by the horizontal connecting rod (3a). It rotates in the direction of arrow A with the portion (5a) as the center of rotation.

On the contrary, when opening the right side of the door (1), as shown in FIG. 3, the door (1) supported by the support rod (6b) with the fixed portion (5b) as the rotation center. 1) is rotated in the direction of arrow B by the horizontal connecting rod (3b). Needless to say, the present invention is not limited to the above examples, and various aspects are possible in the details of the present invention.

[0010]

As described above in detail, in the door structure according to the present invention, the object on which the door is attached is not limited to the installation location, and the hinge is changed to change the opening direction of the one-sided door. It doesn't cost. The door will not come off even if you pull it at the same time. Moreover, since the door is permanently connected to the main body by the connecting rod, an operation or display panel can be provided on the door side by passing the cord through the connecting rod. Since it has a simple structure, it does not cost much and there is little concern about failure.

Claims (1)

[Claims] 1. A door structure which opens left and right, in which supporting rods are hung vertically on the upper and lower sides of the door, and the horizontal connecting rods connected to the supporting rods make the upper and lower rotating shafts coincide with each other on the opposite left and right fixed portions. The horizontal connecting rod connected to the supporting rod on either the left or right side is bent around the fixing portion for rotating the supporting rod on the other side and the horizontal connecting rod. Left and right opening door structure characterized by that.
