Application filed February 23,1927. {Serial N0.I70,22 1.
structure which is adapted for insertion into kerfsin the two pieces to be hinged and cemented in place. Such a hinge avoids the necessity of chiseling out countersinks in the pieces to be joined, which is normally hand work, and avoids the use of screws for securing the hinges in place. It provides a hinge which can be'macle of. fairly light materials, such as for example, from sheet metal stampings. The hinges may be made to" permit the hinged objects to swing through 180 degree angles with relation'to each other, and be much more. concealed, than the ordinary flush hinge, in which the entire .pintle portion must project from the meeting line of thehinged objects. The hinges, when set into kerfs in'the hingedv object, have their plate portions, which often are unsightly, completely concealed.
i In a preferred form I make my hinge of sheetmetal plates which are arranged to engage over wooden filler strips. The kerfs can readily be formed in the objects to be joined in a miter sawing machine, and with great accuracy. The hinges with the filler strips in place can be dropped into the kerfs, together with a suitable glue or cement and will remain permanently-in place.
I have selected for illustration, two forms of my hinge, which show a number of advantages, which I will point out, and the novelty inherent in my invention will be pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawings:
Fig. 1 is across section through a double hinge showing my invention.
Fig. 2 is a perspective of one of the link sections of the double hinge.
Fig. 3 is a perspective of one of the hinge leaf sect-ions of the double hinge.
Fig. at is a perspective of a part of one of the double hinges.
Fig. 5 is a perspective of a wooden filler strip for the hinge of Fig. 4.
Fig. 6 is a perspective illustrating a piece of wood kerfed for the reception of my hinge.
Fig. 7 is a perspective detail showing a portion of two hinged sections.
Fig. 8 is a perspective showing two pieces joined by a single hinge.
' Fig. 9 is a perspective of a portion of the single hinge. i
' In the illustrated "embodiments of my invention, the'hinge leaves are stamped out of sh'eetfmeta'l' and suitably'fornied in a few simpledie operations. I have illustrated but one form of hinge leaf, namely a piece having a main body 1, a flange 2, for engaging the wood filler strip, and a rolled portion 3 for the hinge pintle. These pieces can be stamped from sheet metal without waste, being rectangular, and can have any finish desired. f 1' In the double hinge the link is formed with a fiat body portion 4, with two rolled portions 5, o, for the two-hinge pintle.
In assembling the hinge, when it is the double hinge, the two pintles 6, 6, are thrust through'the links, then through two hinge leaves, one on each pintle, then through another link, and so 011, thus building up a hinge of whatever length is desired, with the only requirement of using standard pieces and cutting the pintle to the desired length. v i j I The filler'strips for the hinges may be made up cheaplyandefiectively from wood or other fibrous material, which is preferable to metal for use with the usual veneer glue, employed by cabinet makers. 'Metal can be used for the filler strip, or the filler strip omitted, and a cement of good body used. As illustrated the strips are formed having a body 7, with ridges 8, interspace d for flush reception between them of the hinge leaves. The edges of the strips are also ridged, or cut in, to form countersinks 9 for the flanges of the hinge leaves.
To illustrate the mode ofsetting the hinge in place, I have shown two pieces of wood 10 and 11, which are each kerfed inwardly from the, outer meeting edge as with the kerfs 12 and 13. The kerfs fit the hinges with the filler strips in place, and the hinges are smeared with glue and set into the kerfs where they will remain.
As compared to the task of countersinking the meeting faces of the wood, setting the hinges, drilling the holes for the screws, and finally screwing the hinges down, this operation is quite simple and the finished article more permanent.
The hinge leaf sections are keyed in place by the wood filler strip and the filler strip and leaves are solidly glued into the kerfs, resulting in very slight weakening of the Wood. The strain on such a hinge is not localized, as is often the case on a single screw, in the usual flush set hinge, but is disthe rolled portions oi the leaves, is required.
This one advantage is not present so much in thesingle hinge,although the pintles may be made of much less size, than in the usual type oi hinge. I have shown the leaves 1, with a single pintle 14 passing throughthem in Fig. 9. This hinge may be provided with a wood filler strip 15, suitably countersunk,
.to receivethe alternate leaves. It may be set into like ker-ts in the wooden pieces 16, 17 as shown in Fig. 8.
The two'illustrated embodiments of my invention are merely two oi a greatmany possible forms. The kerfs can be cut at any angle to suit the type of finish or molding on the hinged parts. When the wood tiller strips are not employed, a fibrous substance can be mixed with theglue, making a mastic in the keris.
In its general aspects, my invention is a new method for hinging one part to anotherusing for such articulation a hinge devised so that it be imbedded in the parts connected in such a manner that only the knuckle with the pin that attaches them is exposed to view at any time.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to cover by Letters Patent, is
1. In a hinged structure, two parts to be hinged together having kerfs in the meeting faces of said parts, a hinge formed of two series of hinge plates, pintle means for said hinge co-operating with vsaid plates,
filler strips of suitable material engaging 'each one of the'series of plates, and'said plates and filler strips cemented in place in said keris. V i f 2- A hi ge, for h Pu po es r be 7 comprising two series of hinge, leaves tor-med of sheet metal, and having rolled portions tor a pintle, pintle means, and filler strips for said leaves, said strips having counter- V sunk portions therein, into which said leaves are set, said filler pieces formed of wood so as to make a good cement bond in kerfs in pieces of wood to be hinged.
l 3. Ahinge for the purpose described, comprising two series of hinge leaves formed of sheet metal and having rolled portions for a pintle, and terminal flanges, pintle means therefor, and filler pieces countersunk to. receive the bodies of said hinge leaves and the terminal flanges, said filler pieces formed of wood so as to make a good cementv bond in kei t'sin pieces oi wood to be hinged, I
e. In a hinged structure, two parts to be hinged together having kerfs therein into which the hinge elements are to be set, and a hinge formed of metal plates having pintle retaining means, a pintle therefor, said metal plates cemented in place in said kerfs with the pintle retaining means only ex-. posed, and filler pieces secured to said metal plates and cemented into the kerfs with, the
plates.
