Playless hinge system with releasable hinge pin
10316561 · 2019-06-11 ·

A hinge assembly suppressing periodic motions and abrasive wear that supports an axial load and integrated a releasable hinge pin with retractable latch pins. The connector arms for the hinge assembly may include bearings, smooth outer surfaces, and tight fittings to help suppress the periodic motions and abrasive wear. Adjustable mounting apertures reduce stress on the hinge system. A hinge aperture for each member enables an axial load arm, such as thrust bearings, to pass through for reducing periodic movements during pivotal operation. A lock arm can also pass through the hinge apertures. The lock arm uses a locking pin to fasten the members together. A smooth outer surface inhibits abrasive wear and creates a smooth pivoting motion. Non-circular mounting apertures may enable adjustable mounting for reducing stress on the system.

Hinge for a furniture door, and furniture carcass having such a hinge

A hinge for a furniture door includes a first hinge part is formed with a cassette-shaped housing for integration into a furniture panel, and a second hinge part is designed in the form of a hinge pot to be attached to the furniture door. The two hinge parts are pivotably connected to one another via a lever mechanism. The housing of the first hinge part is widened in a front region, in which an opening for the lever mechanism is situated, in relation to a rear region. In a closed position of the hinge, at least part of the lever mechanism occupies a space in the front widened region.

Furniture hinge

The invention relates to a furniture hinge with a fastening portion and a hinge part connected thereto via a multi-axis articulated connection, wherein a spring preloads the hinge part directly or indirectly, at least in a subregion of the adjustment path of the hinge part, with respect to the fastening portion, and wherein the spring is mounted or can be mounted under tension between two spring bearings. In order, in such a furniture hinge, to achieve improved movement control and to make the required manual force for hinge opening or closing more even, provision is made according to the invention for the spring (76) to be adjusted in the region of its two spring bearings (74, 84.4) during the adjustment of the hinge part (20) from the opening into the closing position and/or during the adjustment from the closing into the opening position.

Furniture hinge

The invention relates to a furniture hinge (10) with a hinge cup (52) having cup side walls (52.4) which encircle a cup opening at least partially, and having a cup bottom (52.1) which at least partially closes off the hinge cup (52) opposite the cup opening, with a spreading element (70) having two clamping jaws (72.1, 72.2) which at least partially radially enclose the cup side walls (52.4) of the hinge cup (52) and which are connected via a flange (71), and with a lifting arrangement for adjusting at least one of the clamp jaws (72.1, 72.2) between a first position and a second position. Here it is provided that at least one of the clamping jaws (72.1, 72.2) comprises at least one integrally formed spreading extension (76, 78) which, in the transition from the first position into the second position, cooperates with the hinge cup (52) so that the clamping jaws (72.1, 72.2) are spread. As a result, a furniture hinge is created, which can be produced cost-effectively, and which can be attached rapidly and securely to a piece of furniture.

TABLE TOP AND FRAME

A two-piece table includes a one-piece tabletop portion and a one piece table leg portion. The tabletop portion is made of four or more distinct independent, hinged segments which allow the tabletop fold, origami style, into a small package. The tabletop further includes four corners having various chamfered ends or corners which allows for the creation of a handle in the longer ends or corners of the tabletop. The table leg portion is a foldable, unitary structure including four legs and a top portion on which the table top rests without any attachment. The top portion of the table leg portion fits into a slot or groove on the underside of the tabletop. The table leg portion is hinged and folds into a square.

Embodiments generally relate to hinge mechanisms. The central cylinder has a rotate channel transverse to the hinge axis. A collar may couple with the central cylinder and may include a pin that protrudes inwardly into the rotate channel. In some embodiments, the central cylinder may include a second rotate channel and the pin may extend through the first and second rotate channels of the central cylinder. In some embodiments, the central cylinder may include a tapered locking channel that extends and tapers in an axial direction from the rotate channel. Optionally, the collar may include an aperture for receiving the pin therethrough. The pin may be repositionable to a plurality of positions relative to the collar about an insertion axis. The pin repositioning may vary an axial position of the collar relative to the central cylinder, a rotational range of motion of the collar about the central cylinder, or both.
