Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hinge assembly for detachable connection of pivotally interconnected components such as doors or windows, in particular folding wings of a folding system, according to the preamble of claim 1 and a folding system with such a hinge assembly.
  • hinges To be able to clean the outside of the folding wings easily from the inside when not readily accessible from the outside folding systems, especially in high building floors, so-called cleaning fittings must be used as hinges. These consist in practice of a multi-part hinge with an axle pin or hinge pin or hinge pin, the top has a tangible collar so that it can be pulled by hand from the hinge bushings. Important for this, however, is that the folding system for this is partially opened and the closed wings are locked in the frame plane, so that the open and separate wings remain secured over the closed wings in the system and can not turn over unintentionally. However, if the wings opened and separated from each other remain tied to the closed wings, the hinge connection between two folded wings can be released via the axle pin by pulling it upwards. The wings can then be separated and folded, making the outer sides accessible for cleaning from the inside. Such cleaning fittings are mainly used in folding elements on balconies use.
  • hinge pins pulled out completely from both hinge parts or hinge parts must be stored during the cleaning of the system and can be lost. Not completely pulled out hinge pins can fall out under certain circumstances and so also get lost. Conversely, a hinge pin, which is not fully inserted by mistake when the folding unit is closed again, can be worked out of the hinge by further operating processes on the system, so that the wing connection is released unnoticed. In addition, the hinge pins can be pulled out not only unintentionally, but also with the intention of injury for the purpose of burglary or vandalism.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to provide a hinge assembly or a folding system, which has an increased security especially against incorrect operation. This object is achieved by a hinge arrangement mi with the features of claim 1 and a folding system using them.
  • the wall parts of the hinge assembly has a transversely displaceable to the longitudinal extent of the axle pin fixing element which extends hineinerstreck with a projection in a complementary hinge assembly closed recess of the axle, the connection between the two components is secured against unintentional loosening. Also, the axle pin can not be easily expelled from the sockets, since the fixing element fixes its position.
  • the fixing element is mounted spring-biased in the direction of the axle, so that it snaps automatically in the assembly, as soon as the recess of the axle pin in the region of the projection of the fixing element.
  • the fixing on its side facing away from the axle pin an over the remaining elements of the hinge part projecting actuating handle, in particular in the form of a handle element or a tab, over which the projection of the fixing can be actively pulled against the spring force from the recess of the axle .
  • the hinge assembly is simplified to solve, since then the axle can be pulled out of its collar of at least one band part.
  • the fixing element itself is preferably secured in the band part such that it has a stop limiting its movement away from the axle pin. Thus, the fixing can not be accidentally completely pulled out of the band part.
  • the actuating handler is to be arranged so that, when the folding system is closed, it is located within an intermediate space between the connected folding wings and thus in an area which is not accessible from the outside. Since an actuation of the fixing to release the connection between the Falterieln is necessary, can be driven out of the bushes of the band parts almost impossible forcibly from the outside in such an arrangement of the axle. Such an arrangement therefore also represents an increased burglary protection.
  • a band member on the above-described fixing but another band member also has a transversely displaceable to the longitudinal extent of the axle pin locking element which is at least partially hineinbeweglich in the interior of the sleeve of this band part.
  • the locking element may for example be a detent ball or preferably a detent pin.
  • This locking element is preferably also spring-biased in the direction of the axle. It serves for the captive mounting of the axle pin in an open cleaning position, in which the band parts of the hinge assembly and thus the components carrying them are separated from each other.
  • the axle pin can be pulled out of the bush of a band part, but remains in the other band part held by the locking element engages there in the recess of the axle pin and inhibits the axial movement of the axle pin in both directions.
  • This is preferably the recess into which the fixing element engages in the fixed state.
  • the axle can also have a further recess specifically for the locking element.
  • recess (s) of the axle pin and position of the locking element should be arranged to each other so that when dissolved hinge by partially withdrawn axle pin and engaging in the recess locking element facing away from the collar end of the axle pin not from the Socket of the hinge part protrudes with the locking element. As a result, jamming and tilting when re-merging the hinge assembly is avoided.
  • a further security against possible incorrect operation can preferably be achieved in that the axle pin has a mark, which can be seen in the pulled-out state, but is no longer visible in the fully driven into the sockets of the band parts connection state.
  • a marking can be configured, for example, as a visible warning marking by the part adjoining the collar of the eight-pin part, which is located in the socket when the hinge arrangement is closed, is provided with a warning color.
  • tactile markings such as grooves or hollows are also conceivable.
  • such a mark may be provided on the fixing element, which is not recognizable in the recess of the axle pin hineininerumblendem projection, but otherwise recognizable when the fixing is pulled out.
  • the hinge assembly to be reassembled, for example, after cleaning the outer surfaces of temporarily separated folding wings, after congruent superposition of the tape parts of the axle pin back into all Bushes of the hinge are pressed. This is facilitated if the recess of the axle pin in the direction of the collar to an inlet slope, for example, a longer chamfer has, which automatically pushes the locking element back.
  • the locking element must therefore have no external actuation, but reaches the respective predetermined position solely by its storage and bias.
  • Fig. 1 shown folding system has a total of five wings, of which the leftmost in the figure is designed to open as a rotary wing and the adjoining wings are 1.2 on both sides connected to the adjacent wings folding wings.
  • the positions P marked with circles between the folding wings 1, 2 are possible installation locations of the hinge arrangement according to the invention.
  • Fig. 1b shows the folding system partially open, but with closed left wing. In this position, the hinge assemblies may be opened to the middle folding wings 1.2 in the in Fig. 1c ), so that the outside thereof is accessible for cleaning purposes, for example.
  • FIG. 2 are at partially folded position of the folding wings 1,2 accordingly Fig. 1b ) the details of in Fig. 1
  • the hinge arrangement comprises two band parts 3, 4, which have sockets 5, 6, through which, in the basic position, in Fig. 2 an axle 7 extends therethrough. This has at the bottom of a recess 8 and at its upper end a collar 9 which is larger than the diameter of the rest of the axle pin 7, so that the axle pin 7 can not slide completely into the sockets 5.6.
  • the band parts 3,4 are with Fixing screws 11 attached to frame sections 12 of the folding wing 1.2. Clamping screws 13 are used for exact adjustment.
  • the lower part of the band 3 in the figure includes a fixing element 23, which is displaceably mounted in the direction of the arrow Q transversely to the longitudinal extension A of the axle pin 7.
  • a fixing element 23 which is displaceably mounted in the direction of the arrow Q transversely to the longitudinal extension A of the axle pin 7.
  • the axle pin 7 is securely fixed in the position shown.
  • an actuating handle 43 At the opposite end of the projection 33 of the fixing element 23 has this an actuating handle 43. This is such over the remaining areas of the hinge part 3 on that they are in the partially open position of the folding wings 1.2 from Fig. 1 b) can be operated manually or with an auxiliary tool.
  • an unillustrated extension or enlargement for example a band or a zipper, may be attached to the actuating handle 43.
  • the upper part of the belt 4 in the illustration has a latching element 24, which in turn is displaceable in a direction Q, in this case a latching pin 24, which is likewise spring-loaded, but in which Fig. 2 and 3 is pushed back against the spring force by the shaft of the axle pin 7, so that it protrudes minimally in the socket 6.
  • Fig. 4 shows a position in which the axle pin 7 has been pulled up from the lower sleeve 5.
  • the actuating handle 43 was then released again, whereby the spring 15 presses the fixing element 23 in an original position, but in which it is without effect without the Achsloch 7.
  • the axle 7 is held captive in the upper sleeve 6, since the locking pin 24 has pressed from his him wearing Banddteil 4 by the spring force in the socket 5, so that the front end of the locking pin 24 now in the recess 8 of the axle pin. 7 located.
  • the hinge arrangement can therefore also be mounted in reverse, without the axle pin 7 in the position shown falling out of the socket 6, since it is held by the locking pin 24.
  • the band part 4 has another, not provided with a locking pin recess 14, which can also accommodate the locking element in a mirror-inverted arrangement of the hinge.
  • the axle pins 7 of the hinge assemblies can be pushed in again.
  • a one-sided inlet bevel or longer bevel 7 on the recess 8 of the axle pin 7 facilitates the pushing back of the locking bolt 24, while the other side of the recess 8 is designed without such a slope for better captive.
  • the collar 9 facing away from the other end of the axle pin 7 is also formed with a ramp bevel 27 or bevel or cone to push back the projection 33 of the fixing member 23, if the fixing member 23 is not actively withdrawn via the handle member 43.
  • the axle pin 7 is provided immediately below the collar 9 with a marker 37, for example, a signal color. If the marker 37 can still be seen after reinserting the axle pin 7 into the sockets 5, 6, this serves as an indicator for a shaft pin 7 which is not completely brought into its end position.
  • a similar safety marking can also be provided on the fixing element 23 and would then be provided indicate that the projection 33 is not properly in the recess 8 of the axle pin 7.
  • Fig. 6 shows a section in the direction VI-VI through the hinge assembly to the in Fig. 1a ) indicated position. It is apparent from this that, when the folding system is completely closed, the actuating handle 43 for the fixing element 23 is located within an intermediate space 50 between the folding wings 1, 2 and between their lateral sides Frame parts 12 is located and therefore not accessible from the outside 51 of the system.
  • the intermediate space 50 is otherwise sealed by seals 52 and closed.
  • the individual elements of the hinge arrangement are designed as multifunctional as possible, so that the arrangement requires only a small number of components.
  • the socket 5 is identical to the socket 6 with openings for both the fixing element 23 and the locking pin 24. The storage costs are thus reduced.
