Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] The present invention relates to a hinge.

More specifically, the present invention relates to a hinge suitable for application to a hinged portion between a lid and a main body of furniture that requires the lid to be closed quietly without giving an impact.

Because precision equipment is housed in audio equipment cabinets and player housings such as stereos, the hinge between the lid and the main body is designed to allow the lid to be opened and closed quietly without causing any impact. It is recommended to use a hinge of

Conventionally known hinges lack this arrangement, which creates the inconvenience of having to manually close the lid after enjoying stereo music by manually operating it quietly and being careful not to cause any impact. there were.

The present invention was completed as a result of various studies with the aim of improving this inconvenience. The members, that is, the rotating part side member, are hinged to each other by a shaft hole provided in them and a shaft rod inserted into the shaft hole, while a coil spring is attached between both members, and the rotation angle of both members is regulated. The inserter is attached to the space formed in the center between the two members, and the tension of the coil spring is used to gently close the side to which the rotating part side member is attached, that is, the lid, without applying a shock. The hinge is made up of a fixed part side member and a rotating part side member, which are made of a frame with a shaft hole on one side and a shaft rod on the other side. The shaft rods are inserted into the shaft holes of the other members, hinged so that they can rotate, and then attached between the pins attached to both ends of both members in the space formed in the center between the two members. The inserter that covers the coil spring is attached so that the rotation angle of both members can be regulated.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained based on a drawing showing an embodiment. In the figure, 1 is a fixed part side member consisting of a frame fixed to a fixed part A such as a cabinet body of an audio equipment. The shaft hole 3, the pin holes 5, 5 of the shaft rod 3', and the screw holes 9, 9 for fixing to the fixing part A are provided.

Reference numeral 2 denotes a rotating part side member which is fixed to a rotating part B such as a lid and consists of a filter frame, into which the shaft rod 4 and the shaft rod 3' which are fitted into the shaft hole 3 are fitted on both sides. The shaft hole 4' is rotatably hinged to the fixed part side member 1, and also has pin holes 6, 6 and screw holes 10, 10 for fixing to the rotating part B.

Reference numeral 7 denotes a hollow charging element located in the space formed by the fixed part side member 1 and the rotating part side member 2, and deep notches 7', 7' are provided at both ends thereof. , this notch? ', ? ' is adapted to be hooked on the pins inserted into the pin holes 5, 5 and 6, 6, and rotates when the rotating part side member 2 rotates in a direction opposite to the horizontal direction. It has the function of regulating it so that it does not go too far.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a coil spring whose both ends are hooked to pins inserted into the pin holes 5, 5 and 6, 6, and one or several coil springs are provided so as to extend and contract through the inserter 7. As a result, tension is generated between the fixed part side member 1 and the rotating part side member 2, and the rotating part side member 2 is rotated in the horizontal direction, in other words, the rotating part B like the lid is It is designed to eliminate the impact when closing.

The preferred material for the hinge of the present invention is either metal or hard plastic.

To explain the operation when the hinge of the present invention is applied to the hinge part of the storage body of a record player and the lid that covers it, first, the rotation part side member 1 is attached to the storage body, that is, the fixed part A, and the lid, that is, the rotating part. The rotating part side member 2 is fixed to the moving part B with screws using the screw holes 9, 9, and 10 degrees 10, respectively (fixing by adhesive may also be used).

Next, when opening the rotating part B, place your hand on the edge and open it gently so that the walls 1' and 2' are in contact or the inserter 7 is in the pin hole 5.
, 6, this causes the rotating part B to
is opened and maintained in the open state by the contraction force of the coil spring 8 (see FIGS. 5 and 6).

In addition, when closing the rotating part B, do the opposite operation, place your hand on the edge and gently lower it. When the opening angle becomes about 15 degrees, when you release your hand, it will be impacted by its own weight against the tension of the coil spring 8. It quietly descends and closes without giving any damage.

As described above, the hinge of the present invention hinges the fixed part side member and the rotating part side member by fitting the shaft holes and shaft rods provided on both sides into each other, and also A coil spring is attached between the two parts, and the inserter is attached so that the rotation angle of both parts can be regulated, so this can be used, for example, in a cabinet for audio equipment such as a stereo, or a butterfly between the player storage body and the lid. When applied to the closing part, the tension of the coil spring mentioned above and the frictional force generated between the inserter and both parts allow the lid to be closed quietly, and especially just before closing, the tension of the coil spring is maximized. Therefore, even if you release your hand, the lid will close due to its own weight very slowly and be closed without applying any impact, and even if there is an impact, the insert will receive the impact directly between the two members. Therefore, this impact force will not loosen the hinge mounting screw.

In other words, the hinge of the present invention can be said to be an extremely effective component for use as a hinge for furniture that requires the lid to be closed quietly.
