Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hinging device, in particular to be used for oscillatably linking a covering element to a cooking surface.
  • the device in reference can be commonly employed each time it is necessary to hinge an element of substantially flat conformation at a fixed structure.
  • the cooking surfaces currently utilized are provided with a covering element, made of glass or metal for example, or another appropriate material, which is oscillatably movable between a first operating position in which it is disposed parallelly over the cooking surface, and a second operating position in which it is disposed perpendicularly to the cooking surface to enable free access to cookers.
  • a covering element made of glass or metal for example, or another appropriate material, which is oscillatably movable between a first operating position in which it is disposed parallelly over the cooking surface, and a second operating position in which it is disposed perpendicularly to the cooking surface to enable free access to cookers.
  • hinging devices are presently employed that are operatively interposed between a perimetric edge of the covering element and an attachment portion of the cooking surface usually situated at a rear region of said cooking surface.
  • traditional hinging devices are comprised of a tubular body arranged to extend along the perimetric edge of the covering element and having a longitudinal housing adapted to receive said lower edge in engagement.
  • a casing arranged to receive a rotating pin which is then fastened, by means of a small metal base for example, to the corresponding attachment region arranged on the cooking surface.
  • a torsion or compression spring of such a stiffness that a predetermined return force of the covering element towards its second operating position perpendicular to the cooking surface is ensured.
  • the tubular body is usually made of a metal material, and preferably aluminium.
  • a further adverse aspect of traditional hinging devices is the great structural weight and bulkiness that these devices have, mainly due to the presence of said tubular body.
  • This hinging device for doors or windows comprises a support body connected to a perimetric edge of a window frame and a pivoting member formed by a tubular casing receiving inside a rotating pin and vertically supported by a new shaped element which, on its turn, is connected to a fixed structure.
  • the tubular body is connected to the support body by means of a grip portion which matches an anchoring portion of the window frame.
  • a grip portion and the anchoring portion are connected the one with the other by means of a screw between the grip portion and the anchoring portion.
  • the main object of the present invention is to overcome all drawbacks and operating limits mentioned above by providing a hinging device that is such shaped that easy adjustment of the position of the hinging points is made possible, while at the same time being of great structural simplicity and, as a result, of easy accomplishment at greatly contained production costs as compared with traditional devices.
  • a hinging device in particular for covering elements of cooking surfaces in accordance with the present invention has been generally identified by reference numeral 1.
  • the hinging device 1 is operatively interposed between a cooking surface 2 and a covering element 3 that in this case has a planar conformation and can be made of glass, metal material or another appropriate material.
  • the hinging device 1 ensures an oscillatory movement of the covering element 3 relative to the cooking surface 2 and, in more detail, enables the covering element to be moved from a first operating position, in which this covering element is disposed parallelly over the cooking surface, to a second operating position in which the covering element 3 is disposed at right angles to the cooking surface to enable access to cookers as shown in Figs. 1 and 5.
  • the hinging device 1 comprises a support body 4 having at least one first housing seating 5 to receive a perimetric edge 3a of the covering element 3 in engagement.
  • the first seating 3a extends longitudinally along the support body 4.
  • a predetermined amount of adhesive material silicone material for example, is usually interposed between seating 5 and the perimetric edge 3a, so as to create the desired connection.
  • the hinging device 1 further comprises a pivoting member, generally denoted by 6, which is operatively interposed between the support body 4 and an attachment portion 2a of the cooking surface 2.
  • Interconnection means 7 is provided for removable engagement of the pivoting member 6 along the support body 4 at a plurality of operating positions.
  • interconnection means 7 comprises a grip portion 8 associated with the pivoting member 6 and a second housing seating 9 defined longitudinally on said support body and the shape of which substantially matches that of the attachment portion.
  • the interconnection means further comprises a locking element 10, consisting for example of a conventional threaded element, movable between an operating condition (shown in Fig. 3), in which fastening of the attachment portion 8 to said second seating 9 occurs, and a rest position in which disengagement of the attachment portion from said second seating is enabled.
  • a locking element 10 consisting for example of a conventional threaded element, movable between an operating condition (shown in Fig. 3), in which fastening of the attachment portion 8 to said second seating 9 occurs, and a rest position in which disengagement of the attachment portion from said second seating is enabled.
  • the second seating 9 is in particular defined by longitudinal ribs 11 and 12 emerging from an outer wall of the support body 4. From a manufacturing point of view it is pointed out that the support body 4 is made of a substantially U-shaped section member preferably of aluminium, so as to form said first housing seating, and is provided with said ribs 11 and 12 so as to define the second housing seating 9.
  • two pivoting members 6 are provided which engage the support body at a predetermined distance from each other.
  • members 6 can be engaged at any position along the longitudinal extension of the second housing seating 9, thereby adapting the device 1 to the operating requirements that may occur each time.
  • Each of the pivoting members comprises a tubular casing 13 rigidly carrying the grip portion 8 and internally defining a work cavity 14 into which a rotating pin 15 is operatively inserted, said pin having an end portion 15a to be linked to the attachment portion 2a of the cooking surface, by means of a small fastening base 16.
  • the small base 16 is provided with a horizontal portion 16a to be linked to the cooking surface and a vertical extension 16b which is fitted into the end portion 15a of the rotating pin 15 and can be locked by means of a threaded member 17.
  • the hinging device 1 further comprises a spring member 18 operatively interposed between pin 15 and the work cavity 14.
  • the spring member 18 is a torsion spring having one end 18a in engagement with the rotating pin 15 and the other end in engagement with the tubular casing 13. It is also to note that the tubular casing 13 at the work cavity 14 comprises a predetermined number of ridges 19 defining corresponding engagement seats 20 for the second end 18b of the torsion spring 18. In this way, during the assembling step, elastic preloading of the torsion spring can be adjusted depending on the weight of the covering element 3.
  • a stop element 21 is also provided which consists of a conventional threaded element as well, arranged to mutually lock the rotating pin and tubular casing in an axial direction, so as to avoid disassembling thereof and, as a result, prevent the spring from coming out each time the pivoting member 6 is wished to be moved along the seating 9 or when the whole hinging device is for example required to be disassembled for carrying out maintenance, cleaning or other operations.
  • the invention achieves important advantages.
  • the hinging points can be easily moved without requiring any additional working operation, in that it is sufficient to loosen the locking element 10 and subsequently let the pivoting member 6 run along the second receiving housing 9 until the desired operating position is achieved.
  • the hinging device in accordance with the present invention can be easily adapted to any and every cooking surface, independently of the position of the attachment portions 2a arranged thereon.
  • Provision of the axial stop element 21 between the pin and tubular casing is also advantageous because in this manner any tampering or removal of the mechanism adapted to balance the covering element 3 is made impossible.
