Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A door hingedly connected to a suitable frame structure by means of hinge structure for enabling the door to be swingably moved about the opposite side extremities of the door.
  • a first pair of rotary bearings are mounted on the upper and lower ends of the door adjacent one extremity thereof, which bearings have arcuate slots therein which coact with arcuate projections provided on the frame and disposed for coaction with the first pair of bearings.
  • a second pair of rotary bearings are mounted on the upper and lower edges of the door adjacent the opposite extremity thereof and include arcuate slots disposed for coaction with a further pair of arcuate projections mounted on the frame, whereby the door can be swingably moved about either extremity thereof.
  • confronted slots at each side of the door present their arcuate concavities confronted, for the retention of the door within the frame when in the closed position.
  • FIG. 1 shows the device of the present invention applied to a refrigerator opening to the right.
  • FIG. 2 shows a device corresponding to FIG. 1, but opening to the left.
  • FIG. 3 is an elevational view of the door.
  • FIG. 4 is an end view of the door illustrated in FIG.
  • FIG. 5 is a fragmentary plan view illustrating the door in an open position when hinged from the right, substantially as illustrated in FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 6 is a fragmentary plan view showing the door in an open position when hinged from the left, substantially as illustrated in FIG. 2.
  • the device comprises at both sides of the door 1, precisely at the upper andlower parts, rotary bearings 2 each having an arcuate slot 3, which slots in the closed position of the door receive therein the arcuate projection 4 provided at each extremity of the upper and lower parts of the frame 5.
  • the arcuate slots and projections adjacent one edge of the door are generated substantially about the hinge axis adjacent the opposite edge of the door, and vice versa.
  • one or the other handles 6, 7 In order to open the door, one or the other handles 6, 7 must be pulled, because if the two handles are pulled at the same time the door will remain closed, seeing that the arcuate projections 4 of confronting concavities will hold the door, which must necessarily rotate on one of its bearings, right or left to leave the frame, said bearing being the hinge.
  • first pair of rotary bearing means mounted adjacent the upper and lower ends of said door, saidfirst pair of rotary bearing means being substantially co axially aligned and defining a first axis disposed adjacent one edge of said door;
  • each of the rotary bearing means of said fi rst-. -pair having a first arcuateslot formed therein, and each of the rotary bearing means of said secondpair having a second arcuate slot-formed therein, said first and second arcuate slots having their concavities facing one another;
  • first pair of elongated arcuate projections fixedly secured to said frame adjacent the upper and lower ends of said opening, said first pair of arcuate projections being disposed adjacent one edge of said opening and positioned so as to be received within said first slots;
  • first hinge means coacting between said door and said wall for permitting swinging movement of said door about a first substantially vertical hinge axis disposed adjacent one vertical edge of said door; said first hinge means including first and second coaxially aligned hinge units positioned adjacent the upper and lower ends of said door; second hinge means coacting between said door and said wall for permitting swinging movement of said door about a second substantially vertical hinge axis disposed adjacent the opposite vertical edge of said door; said second hinge means including third and fourth coaxially aligned hinged units positioned adjacent the upper and lower ends of said door; each of said first and second hinge units including (1 a first hinge part rotatably mounted on one of said wall and said door for rotation about said first axis and (2) a second hinge part fixedly and stationarily secured to the other of said wall and door, one of said first and second hinge parts having an arcuate projection
  • one of said first and second hinge elements having an arcuate projection and the other of said first and second hinge axes, the coacting grooves and projections of said first and second hinge means cooperating to fixedly maintain said door secured to said wall when said door is in said closed position to prevent lateral movement of said door as a whole away from said wall.
