Abstract

The plate (2) has a lower plate (3) with two holes for fixing screws (12). These holes, and elongated holes in an upper plate (4) through which the screws pass, are arranged with equal spacing about the upper plate transverse axis which passes through wing-like lateral projections on the upper plate. The arrangement allows two plates to be mounted on opposite sides of the wall, which has corresponding neighbouring pairs of holes, in order to accept the fixing screws. The holes in the lower plate may be surrounded by plinth-like raised sections, which are lower than the thickness of the upper plate.

Description

Fixing plate to fix a piece of hardware, for example a hinge arm, to a support wall.

The invention relates to a fixing plate to fix a piece of hardware, for example a hinge arm, to a support wall, composed of a bottom plate that is provided of two holes for fixing screws and of two elevations of socket type, and a top plate covering the bottom plate to the less partially, which has an elongated central part with devices for fixing the hardware and side appendages fin type, whose bisectors run at right angles to to the bisector of the central part and that are also crossed by the fixing screws, where the type elevations socket gear as guiding parts with the torn holes of upper plate.

In the case of a fixing plate of this type, known from DE-GM 86 20 441, the torn holes pierced by the fixing screws in the Flap-like appendages are located on a common bisector, where both the lower plate and the upper plate of this fixing plate are symmetrically configured to this bisector. If fixing plates of this type must be mounted on the double stop on mutually opposite sides of a support wall, its congruent symmetrical mounting is only possible if the wall support It has a thickness such that the fixing screws can screw into holes aligned to the support wall from the sides opposites, so that they do not interfere with each other.

From document DE 297 07 057 U1 a known fixing plate for a furniture hinge, which has a Synthetic material supplement with a pin type appendix. In in the case of a congruent double stop, the appendages of type pin in each case in a hole of passage of a wall support. Next to the pin-type appendages is found in each case a hole for a fixing screw, where the holes of the fittings are executed as torn holes and are arranged diagonally opposite, such that the screws fixing, in the case of being used as double hardware, in each case they are screwed on opposite sides of the pin-type appendages and with it they do not interfere with each other.

The task of the invention is to create a fixing plate of the class mentioned at the beginning, which can be fixed on the congruent double stop on opposite sides of a support wall, even if it only has a reduced thickness.

This task is solved according to the invention. by combining the particularities of the claim  1. Starting from a fixing plate of the exposed gender, the two Bottom plate holes are arranged at the same distance of the longitudinal bisector of the lower plate and opposite diagonally between them. The torn holes of the plate upper pierced by the fixing screws are arranged at the same distance from the transverse axis of the top plate, which runs through the fin type appendages, and opposites diagonally between them, so that two can be mounted fixing plates on the double stop on opposite sides of a wall support, which are equipped with corresponding holes located next to each other for fixing screws.

The fixing plates according to the invention can be mounted congruently on the double side stop mutually opposite of a support wall, since the holes for the fixing screws are not aligned on the support wall, but they are located next to each other, so that you can take advantage of the entire thickness of the wall support for screwing and to fix the fixing screws. Also after assembly of the fixing plate can be adjusted and the upper plate regulated relative to the bottom plate after loosening the screws fixing, as the top plate is guided in the direction of translation on the bottom plate by type elevations plinth.

It is also planned that in each of the upper plate fin appendages are arranged torn holes, parallel to the torn holes pierced by the fixing screws and with which they mesh the Socket type elevations of the bottom plate. These elevations Socket type are used to guide the direction of translation upper plate on the lower plate.

The holes in the bottom plate can be surrounded by sockets type elevations, which are lower that the thickness of the top plate, as is known from the document DE-GM 86 20 441.

Socket type elevations can be composed of pivots. The torn holes pierced by the pivots conveniently present in its central region widening at its edges, with which the pins pivot to center the upper plate relative to the lower plate. From this mode can easily find the position again central, even after a translation of the upper plate with in relation to the lower plate, since in it the pivots again in the widenings. The pivots can be made of synthetic material and therefore able to deform elastically They can also engage with the edges of the holes torn out of the widening with greater friction.

In a further configuration of the invention it is provided that the holes in the bottom plate are conformed integral tacos and with homogeneous material. The plate bottom with its taco type appendages and its pivots is composed conveniently of a material injection molded part synthetic, while the top plate may be composed of a stamped sheet metal part.

According to a preferred embodiment, it is provided that the bottom plate is symmetrically configured to its transverse bisector and the upper plate to its bisector longitudinal that runs through the central part, thereby that the plate halves can be covered identically by means of a 180º turn. In this way the fixing plates are suitable to make a stop both to the left and to the right, where the plates mounted on the double stop are configured identically

The holes in the support wall are conveniently through holes. These can be entered now before mounting the fixing plate at a distance Default on the wall support.

According to another form of execution, it is expected that at the lateral ends of the bottom plate are shaped in each case full tacos and with homogeneous material, whose point Central is located on the bisector of the lower plate. From this way the taco-type appendages are applied along a line separated from the fixing screws, so that in the support wall is only equally necessary to provide a row of through holes at a predetermined distance. The appendices of taco type are manufactured so short that they can be fitted by both sides in the holes, even in the case of walls narrow, and guarantee a sufficient fixation of the plates already before finally securing the screws. Screws they can be executed in turn longer than the appendices of taco type, as they dislodge dislocated on the wall of piece of furniture.

The following explains in more detail a Execution example of the invention based on the drawing. In this show

The fixing plates 2 that can be mounted congruent shape in the double stop on a support wall 1 se They consist of a lower plate 3 and an upper plate 4.

The bottom plate 3 has a shape essentially rectangular peripheral with rounded corners. Be  it consists of a central part 5 of smaller thickness, to which connect extreme regions 6, 7 thickened through an appendix in the form of a step. In these thickened extreme regions are arranged, at equal distances from the longitudinal bisector 8, a rectangular elevation 9 of the plinth type and an elevation 10 of pivot type With this, the two elevations 9 of the plinth type and the two pivot-type elevations 10 are located opposite diagonally in the visible form in figure 3.

Sockets 9 of type base are equipped of holes 11 for fixing screws 12, which lead to  below the bottom plate 3 in tack type appendices 13.

Bottom plate 3 is configured symmetrically to its longitudinal bisector 8 and its bisector cross-section 14. Sockets 9 of the plinth type and elevations 10 of the pivot type are arranged, however, that the lower plate halves separated by bisector Transversal 14 can be covered by a 180º turn.

The bottom plate 3 is composed integrally of a piece of injection molding of synthetic material.

The top plate 4 consists of a part 16 central rectangular, which is equipped with a U-shaped elevation 17 which, in its center, supports a Socket type 18 with a threaded hole. The elevation 17 is configured in such a way that it can overlap with a U-shaped profiled hinge arm of a furniture hinge, which can be immobilized on the central part 16 by a fixing screw 19. Symmetrically to the transverse bisector 20 are formed on the central part 16 supplements 21, 22 in the form of a fin. In these supplements 21, 22 in the form of fin torn holes 23, 24 are arranged at equal distances from the transverse bisector 20. The bisectors of these holes torn 23, 24 have distances equal to the bisector transverse 20. The torn holes 24 are rectangular and they have a width that corresponds to the width of the 9 type elevations. The torn holes 23 have a width corresponding to the pivot type elevations 10 and are endowed in its central regions with widening at its edges, in which the pivot type elevations 10 can be interlocked in the central position

The torn holes 23, 24 are arranged diagonally opposite each other in appendices 21, 22 of type fin, such that the halves of the upper plate 4 separated by the longitudinal bisector can be covered each other by a 180º turn. The top plate 4 is composed of a stamped sheet metal part and is provided with edges 26 beaded, which run through the edges of the appendages 21, 22 of fin type and the connected longitudinal sides of the central part 16.

The extreme regions 6, 7 of the lower plate 3 are covered by appendages 21, 22 of the fin type of the top plate, in the visible form in figure 2. With it the bottom plate 3 is shorter than the distance between the edges 26 external flanges of the appendages 21, 22 of the fin type, of such so that the top plate 4 can be displaced along the torn holes 23, 24 to fit over the bottom plate 3.

Socket 9 elevations are lower that the thickness of the upper plate 4, to a degree such that the upper plate 4 can be braced by securing the fixing screws 12 with the bottom plate 3 or the support wall one.

The support wall 1 is provided with holes of step 29, 30 located next to each other, some distance between the holes 11 or the torn holes 23, 24 and the bisector 20. The pairs of drill holes 29, 30 have a distance mutual that corresponds to the distance of the holes 11 in longitudinal direction of the bottom plate 3.

For the purpose of preassembly and to hold the upper plates 4 on the lower plates 3 the screws are screwed fixing screws 12 partially in appendices 13 of type block, as can be seen in figure 2.

In pre-assembled state or after a renewed loosening of fixing screws 12 can move these, to adjust the upper plates 4, on the bottom plates in the longitudinal direction of the holes torn 23, 24.

Figure 5 shows a plan view on a bottom plate according to a second embodiment. The plate bottom 50 differs from bottom plate 3 according to the Figure 3, in which taco-type appendages 60 are not formed in extension of the holes for the fixing screws, but centrally along the bisector of the bottom plate 50. From this mode is enough to provide simple drills 52 for fixing screws In each case on the opposite side of the holes 52 are provided with pivots 51, which engage with the torn holes of the top plate in the form above described.
