Definitions

• the present invention relates to an arrangement in a hinge for a door, preferably an outside cabinet door, with a pivot axis arranged in a first slidable part in a telescopic arrangement, attached to the cabinet wall and a link arranged between the door and a second slidable part in the telescopic arrangement, the link acting on the first part connected to the pivot axis in the telescopic arrangement, so that the axis is displaced out from the cabinet wall in an opening movement, a toothed segment being attached to the wall and a first part of the telescopic arrangement being slidably arranged along the wall and having a toothed wheel carried in said part and arranged to engage the toothed segment, and further the second part of the telescopic arrangement having a toothed rack in engagement with the toothed wheel and connected to the door by the link.

• Figs. 32 and 33 show a link.
• Figs. 34 and 35 show schematically how the link moves in relation to the door.
• the hinge 10 shown in Fig. 1 is attached to a wall 11 and to a door 12. Below the hinge there is a shelf 13 or the bottom in the cabinet which is limited by the wall 11 and the door 12.
• the hinge 10 has a door bracket 14 of which the major part is inserted in the door 12.
• Fig. 2 shows the appearance of the hinge placed on the wall 11.
• FIG. 3 the hinge is shown attached to the door 12.
• a circle 15 denotes a circular boring on the inside of the door in which the door bracket 14 is inserted.
• the door bracket also has a flange 16 with holes 17 for screws.
• a flange 18 which forms part of a wall bracket.
• the flange 18 and the mechanism in the hinge are covered by a cover 19 and both this cover and the flange 18 have holes 20 and 21 for attachment screws.
• the door bracket 14 is formed by two parts 22 and 23 which are placed together along a horizontal plane 24.
• Fig. 5 the vertical edge of the door 12 at the hinge-side is shown with the parts 22 and 23 of the door bracket attached to the door at the wall-side of the flange 18. Further, the edge of the cover 19 is shown which lies behind the wall bracket in the Figure.
• the door 12 can, as shown in Fig. 6, be opened about 170 from the closed position.
• the door has a pivot axis 25 in the door bracket and situated in the door.
• the door has a connection with the wall 11 by two arms 26 pivotably mounted on the pivot axis 25, these arms forming an extension of a guiding slide 27, which is telescopically movable.
• the door movement also is guided by a link 28 which will be described in the following.
• Fig. 7 is intended to show the principle of the door movement and therefore the hinge details are not shown.
• the door is shown in closed position to a cabinet with the left-hand wall 11, a shelf 13 and a wall 11a to the right, and in an entirely open position like in Fig. 6.
• To the left of the cabinet is an adjacent cabinet with a wall 29 and a door 30 and to the right another adjacent cabinet with a wall 31 and a door 32.
• the door 12 is moved from the closed position to the open one by a handle 33 being pulled straight out from the cabinet.
• Due to the shape of the hinge according to the invention the pivot axis 25 of . the door describes a curve 34. This means that the door is first turned so much, that its right-hand edge with the handle 33 is free of the door 32 and thereafter the pivot
• OMPI axis is moved somewhat to the right simultaneously with the turning of the door.
• the axis is also moved out from the cabinet in accordance with the curve 34.
• the cover 19 for the wall bracket shown in Figs. 8 and 9 has a part 35 which is U-shaped in section and surrounds the mechanism, and two flanges 36 and 37 with holes 20 and an edge flange 38, 39 at the outer edges of the flanges 36, 37.
• the cover 19 surrounds a wall bracket shown in Figs. 13 - 17 which has been mentioned before in connection with Figs. 3 and 5. It comprises the flange 18 with the holes 21 for screws.
• the wall bracket on the cabinet side has an longitudinal prismatic part 40 of rectangular cross section. As shown in Fig. 14 this prism at two opposite sides has two continuous similar curved grooves 41, 42 which are situated after each other and arc-shaped.These grooves also appear in the cross section in Fig. 16.
• the grooves 42 extend at both sides out on the door side of the prism so that guiding pins can be inserted into the grooves. Parallel to the grooves 42, which are situated closest to the door, the prismatic part 40 has a central toothed segment 43.
• the guiding pins which are intended to move in the curved grooves 41, 42 form part of the slide 27 which is shown in Fig. 6.
• the shape of the slide 27 appears from Figs. 10 - 12. It is cut out from an even metal sheet (Fig. 10) which is bent along two lines 44, 45, to the appearance shown in Figs. 10a, 11 and 12.
• Four guiding pins 46 are arranged in ears 47.
• a toothed wheel 48 is rotatably arranged on an axis 49.
• the sheet comprises the said guiding arms 26 with holes 54 for the pivot axis 25 of the door.
• a slide 58 is shown intended to be inserted with one end 59 in the space situated between the bottom part 60 of the guiding slide and the wheel 48 in Fig. 11.
• the end of the slide 58 turned to the door is formed like a fork 62 with holes 63 for an axis 65 (Fig. 20) which passes through a hole 64 in the link 28 (Figs. 32a and 33).
• the slide 58 at two sides has grooves 66 turned to each other in which the slide 58 can slide in the guides 56, 57 at the slide 27.
• the two parts 22 and 23 are shown put together forming the door bracket for the hinge. Put together as shown in Figs. 3 and 4 they form a cylindrical part with the flange 16 with the holes 17 for the attachment screws.
• the link can be turned in its own plane in the door. This is so because the arc of the first curved groove 71 has its centre 74 in a point at the second curved groove 73 and the arc for this second groove 73 has its centre 75 in the first curved groove 71.
• the described hinge has an essential quality, which is not present in known hinges which are intended to fulfil the requirements mentioned by way of introduction.
• Part of the mechanism slides a few millimetres to the side, but if a cover 19 is used, which is not necessary, no movement at all in the cabinet space is observable. The movement occurs inside the cover.
