Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hinge hinge for doors, windows and furniture with a first hinge tab with two spaced apart first rollers arranged on a common pivot axis and with a second hinge tab with two spaced apart second rollers arranged on the pivot axis, with a second roller in each case Viewed in the direction of the pivot axis, it adjoins a first roller from the inside, with adjacent first and second rollers being connected to one another such that they can pivot about the pivot axis via a pivot pin.
  • U.S. 5 039 826 A discloses such a hinge.
  • a suitable cable from the fixed frame via the hinge to the movable element, but such a solution does not guarantee wear-free and interference-free transmission. Due to the repetitive movement, there is a risk of material fatigue and cable breakage.
  • a hinge with integrated, wireless energy and signal transmission for pivotably mounted elements has become known, in which the contact is made via a slip ring body system.
  • Gold-coated sliding tracks are located radially on the bearing part attached to the fixed element.
  • the cable is fed from the fixed element via a grommet in the slip ring assembly.
  • this known hinge is expensive because it requires a special slip ring body system that is specially adapted to the hinge. In addition, corresponding changes to the hinge itself are required.
  • the object of the invention is to make such a hinge strap suitable for power and / or signal transmission in a structurally simple manner.
  • This object is achieved according to the invention in a hinge of the type described in that there is a free space between the two second rollers and that a third hinge tab with a third role and a fourth hinge tab with a fourth role are provided, the third and fourth roles are arranged side by side in the free space on the pivot axis, with a slip ring for power and / or signal transmission being received within the third and fourth roller.
  • first and second hinge tabs standard components can in principle be used for the first and second hinge tabs, only a free space needing to be present between the two second rollers of the second hinge tab.
  • the third and fourth hinge tabs are used to hold a standard slip ring, which is inserted into the third and fourth roll.
  • the slip ring is protected on the one hand and not visible from the outside on the other.
  • the free space can be created, for example, by dividing the middle roller into two roles to form the free space. If the hinge was originally a five-roll hinge, the middle roll can be removed.
  • the respective pivot bolt is designed so long that it engages in the third or fourth roller in some areas. This ensures that the rollers of the four hinge tabs are aligned with one another and centered in the direction of the pivot axis.
  • connection cables of the slip ring In order to mount or guide the connection cables of the slip ring, provision is preferably made for a cable duct for connecting cables of the slip ring, which is directed towards the third and fourth hinge tabs, to be formed in each of the third and fourth rolls.
  • the connection cables from the slip ring to the respective hinge tab are routed through this respective cable duct.
  • the respective cable duct opens into a groove-shaped area of the third or fourth hinge tab. Through this groove-shaped area, the respective connection cable can be routed to the outside, that is to say to the frame or to the movable element.
  • the respective groove-shaped area is preferably provided on the side of the third or fourth hinge lobe facing away from the first or second hinge tab, so that the connection cables rest against the frame or movable element in the assembly position and can be routed there directly or via plugs.
  • the third or the fourth roller has a hollow pin-shaped projection for engaging the fourth or third roller. This ensures that the third roller is reliably centered and guided in relation to the fourth roller, and there is no risk of damage due to the slip ring tilting.
  • the third and / or the fourth hinge tab has a longitudinal web on the side facing the first or second hinge tab, adjacent to the third and / or fourth roller, which rests against the edge of the first or second hinge tab.
  • This longitudinal web serves on the one hand as Stop edge in particular for positioning the components during assembly and, on the other hand, for filling free spaces in order to prevent manipulation of the current-carrying strip.
  • the longitudinal webs also serve optical purposes.
  • first and third hinge tabs and the second and fourth hinge tabs have corresponding fastening bores.
  • the respective hinge tabs are connected to one another in the correct position.
  • the third and fourth hinge tabs consist of plastic or metal die-cast parts.
  • the two hinge tabs can then be produced using 3D printing or injection molding, for example.
  • semi-tubular metal caps are placed on the rollers from the outside so that the appearance of these rollers corresponds to that of the first and second metal rollers.
  • die casting e.g. aluminum or zinc can be used as metals. A combination of materials is also possible.
  • the third and fourth hinge tabs consist of two tab elements lying flat against one another, the respective groove-shaped area being designed as a recess in a tab element.
  • this facilitates production and, on the other hand, simplifies assembly when inserting the slip ring and when laying the connection cables. After the connection cables have been laid, the two flap elements are laid flat against one another and, if necessary, additionally fastened to one another.
  • At least one further roller is provided on the outside adjacent to at least one first roller.
  • the hinge can basically have any number of roles.
  • the hinge tabs are at least one cranked or rebated area.
  • a cranked design is provided for glass doors, for example.
  • Single or double rebated areas are intended for rebated doors.

  • the first hinge tab 2 has two spaced apart first rollers 7 which are arranged on a common pivot axis 6 and are each molded onto the upper or lower end of the first hinge tab 2.
  • the second hinge tab 3 has two second rollers 8, which are arranged in the assembled position on the pivot axis 6 and are spaced apart from one another.
  • the second rollers 8 are arranged so that they are in the assembly position (e.g. Fig. 1 ) each adjoin a first roller 7 from the inside, viewed in the direction of the pivot axis. Between the two second rollers 8, seen in the direction of the pivot axis, there is a free space 9, the function of which is explained below.
  • the third flap 4 has a third roller 10 and the fourth flap 5 has a fourth roller 11.
  • the third roller 10 and the fourth roller 11 are formed on the third flap 4 and fourth flap 5 so that they are next to each other in the free space 9 are arranged on the pivot axis 6. It borders in the sense of Fig. 3 and 4th the third roller 10 to the upper second roller 8 and the fourth roller 11 to the lower second roller 8.
  • Inside the third roller 10 and the fourth roller 11 is an in Fig. 7 shown slip ring 12 for power and / or signal transmission added.
  • a hollow pin-shaped projection 10a is provided for engaging the fourth roller 11.
  • the third hinge tab 4 and the fourth hinge tab 5 are aligned in the direction of the pivot axis 6 and can be pivoted relative to one another.
  • pivot bolts 13 are provided, which are formed so long that they each penetrate an adjacent first and second roller 7, 8 and engage in regions as far as the third roller 10 or the fourth roller 11.
  • the hinge tabs 2, 3, 4 and 5 can have different shapes.
  • the slip ring 12 is received in the remaining cavity between the ends of the pivot pins 13 in the rollers 10 and 11.
  • the slip ring 12 has connection cables 14 and 15.
  • the respective cable duct 16, 17 merges into a groove-shaped area 18 of the third hinge tab 4 or 19 of the fourth hinge tab 5.
  • the respective groove-shaped area 18, 19 is provided on the side of the third or fourth hinge tab 4, 5 facing away from the first and second hinge tabs 2, 3, so that the connecting cables 14, 15 of the slip ring 12 are in contact with the surface of the Frame or the door leaf or the like.
