Description

Title: a hinge, an assembly comprising the hinge and a method of adjusting a position of a movable barrier relative to a frame using the hinge. Description According to a first aspect the present disclosure relates to a hinge for pivotably connecting a movable barrier such as a window or a door to a frame such as a window frame or a door frame.
According to a second aspect the present disclosure relates to an assembly of said hinge, a frame such as a window frame or a door frame and a movable barrier such as a window or a door.
According to a third aspect the present disclosure relates to a method of adjusting a position of a movable barrier such as a door or a window relative to a frame such as a window frame or a door frame using said hinge.
With the use of conventional hinges for pivotably connecting a window or a door to a respective window frame or a door frame, the position of the respective door or window cannot be adjusted once mounted in its final position, for example when the gap between the door or window and the frame appears to be uneven after installation, or when the door or window does not close properly. In order to fix these deficiencies, the hinge has to be removed, adapted and reinstalled and/or the respective door or window has to be manipulated, which is an unpleasant, time consuming and laborious task. Because of the inflexibility of conventional hinges, installing and/or correctly adjusting a door or a window requires accurate craftsmanship.
Accordingly, it is an object of the present disclosure to provide a hinge with improved capability for adjusting the position of a movable barrier.
In the first aspect, this is achieved by a hinge for pivotably connecting a movable barrier such as a window or a door to a frame such as a window frame or a door frame, said hinge comprising:
- an adjustment part arranged for being fixated, in use, to one of said movable barrier and said frame, wherein said adjustment part comprises a supporting surface; - a first hinge part arranged for being fixated, in use, to said one of said movable barrier and said frame via said supporting surface; - a second hinge part arranged for being fixated, in use, to said other of said movable barrier and said frame; - a coupling element pivotably coupling said first hinge part to said second hinge part about a pivot axis; - an adjustment element connected to said adjustment part and said first hinge part for adjusting an orientation of said first hinge part relative to said adjustment part for positioning said movable barrier relative to said frame.
It was the insight of the inventor, that by connecting the adjustment part to one of the two hinge parts, the orientation of the hinge part relative to the adjustment part can easily be adjusted. This allows simple and extremely accurate positioning of the movable barrier relative to the frame, even after fixation of the movable barrier to frame, obviating the need of removing and/or reinstallation of the hinge and/or adaptation of the movable barrier and/or frame. Use of the hinge according to the present disclosure, simplifies installation of the movable barrier to the frame, as this requires less strict demands and accuracy in installing the hinge.
The hinge, more in particular the adjustment element, according to the present disclosure is preferably arranged for adjusting the movable barrier relative to the clear opening or clearance of the frame. The clear opening or clearance of a frame is defined as the inner surface of the frame enclosing an opening. In Dutch this is defined by “de dag” or “de dagmaat”.
Preferably, by adjusting an orientation of the first hinge part relative to the adjustment part, the position of the door relative to the frame is accurately adjustable in continues steps up to several millimeters, more preferably up to several centimeters.
Preferably, the separate elements of the hinge are manufactured of a solid material, like steel, stainless steel, aluminium or any other metal, an alloy, or combinations thereof. More preferably, the separate elements of the hinge are manufactured from the same material, for efficient, cost efficient production and for minimalizing waste materials.
Preferably, the hinge according to the present disclosure is arranged for manufacturing in different dimensions, such that the hinge is suitable for outside doors and/or windows in offices and homes.
Preferably, the movable barrier comprises two or more hinges according to the present disclosure, dependent of the size and/or weight of the movable barrier. For example, one or more hinges can be provided in an upper part and a lower part of the movable barriers. This allows for separate and accurate positioning of the upper part of the movable barrier relative to the frame and/or the lower part of the movable barrier relative to the frame.
Optionally, the hinge can be installed without the adjustment part installed to one of the movable barrier and the frame, for example when there is no need for adjusting the movable barrier relative to the frame at the moment of installation.
Preferably, through holes and/or dimensions of the hinge, in particular the first hinge part, are positioned and/or sized in accordance with conventional hinges. This is advantageous, because this allows retrofitting and simple and easy replacement of conventional hinges by the hinge according to the present disclosure.
Preferably, the one of the movable barrier and the frame is provided with a recess arranged for receiving the adjustment part. The recess can be produced manually or automatically, for example by a conventional CNC machine.
Preferably, said adjustment part comprises first through holes each arranged for receiving a fixating element such as a screw for fixating said adjustment part to said one of said movable barrier and said frame. This ensures easy installation and firm fixation of the adjustment part, preferably by screws generally available.
Preferably, the first through holes coincide with through holes present in the first hinge part, such that each first through hole and corresponding through hole in the first hinge part are arranged for receiving a single fixating element such as a screw for simultaneously fixating the adjustment part and the first hinge part to the one of the movable barrier and frame.
Preferably, said adjustment part comprises a threaded hole and wherein said adjustment element is provided with a screw thread cooperating with said threaded hole for said adjusting.
This ensures a beneficial and easy operation of the adjustment element for adjusting the orientation of the first hinge part relative to the adjustment part, by transferring a rotational movement to the adjustment element. Clockwise and/or counter-clockwise rotation of the adjustment element, enables orientation of the first part relative to the adjustment such that the movable barrier is positioned away from the frame orientation, or enables orientation of the first part relative to the adjustment such that the movable barrier is positioned towards the frame.
Preferably, the adjustment element is provided with a recess or a protrusion arranged for receiving a tool, for adjusting the adjusting element. More preferably, the adjustment element is provided with a cross or hexagonal shaped recess at its free short side facing the adjustment part, arranged for receiving a tool generally available, like a screwdriver or a hex key.

Preferably, at least one of said first surface area and said second surface area is flat, preferably, wherein both said first surface area and said second surface area are flat. This enables a simple, solid and easy to manufacture adjustment part. The orientation of the first hinge part relative to the adjustment part is adjusted by tilting the first hinge part over the tilt line of the adjustment part by means of the adjusting element. On the one side, the orientation of the first hinge part relative to the adjustment part is bounded to a first orientation by the first surface area of the 5 adjustment part, with the adjustment element in its first position. On the other side, the orientation of the first hinge part relative to the adjustment part is bounded by a second orientation by the second surface area of the adjustment part, with the adjustment element in its second position. The orientation of the first hinge part relative to the adjustment part can be adjusted by means of the adjustment element to any orientation between the first orientation and the second orientation.
In an embodiment, said first surface area and said second surface area are convex curved in a plane perpendicular to the tilt line. This is beneficial for realizing a relative accurate adjustment.
