Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hinge for mounting the doors of motor vehicles, and is particularly concerned with the conformation of the two parts, that is, the movable part and the fixed part, respectively, the mutual coupling of which upon assembly constitutes the hinge in question.
  • the said fixed part is positioned on a column of the bodywork and carries a pin arranged to engage in at least one apertured boss incorporated in a flange of the door, constituting the said movable part.
  • GB-A-211990 and US-A-2926382 disclose hinges for attaching a vehicle door to the body of a vehicle, comprising a hinge pin carried by a first part which is adapted to be mounted on the body of the vehicle, and two apertured and spaced-apart upper and lower bosses carried by a second part adapted to be mounted on the vehicle door and engageable with the hinge pin.
  • the pin is provided with two spaced-apart portions of reduced width, and the two apertured bosses of the second part of the hinge are both provided with respective slots adapted to engage the reduced-width portions of the pin, so as to facilitate assembly operation of the parts to be connected by the hinge.
  • This construction though allowing simpler and more rapid assembly operation for the parts, is of relatively complicate and weak construction, in particular due to the pin conformation and to the slotted configuration of both bosses of the second part of the hinge. In other words, this construction is unable to provide the necessary sturdiness required for vehicle door hinges in order to ensure safe connection of the door to the vehicle body even in case a crash or uncontrolled opening of the door.
  • a further object of the invention is that of providing the components of the hinge with smaller dimensions, particularly the diameters of the pin and boss for receiving the pin as well as providing a hinge requiring a smaller travel for fitting the parts together, the whole being advantageous as regards the weight and size and competitive production costs.
  • the present invention provides a hinge for attaching a vehicle door to the body of a vehicle of the above mentioned type, characterised by the following combination:
  • the portion of reduced width of the pin is defined between two parallel flat faces on the pin.
  • the hinge according to the invention has the practical advantage that it allows the hinged mounting of the vehicle door to be effected by only two light manually applied forces, laterally and vertically respectively. Furthermore, the hinge is of more simple and sturdy construction, which effectively prevents accidental disengagement and separation of its components.
  • Figure 5 is a plan view sectioned along line V-V of Figure 4, and
  • reference numeral 1 indicates a plate provided with two holes 3 for respective fixing screws for mounting the plate on the internal edge, schematically indicated 2, of the door space of the vehicle bodywork.
  • the plate 1 has two apertured lugs 5 aligned vertically.
  • a pin 6 with a knurled end 7 is inserted in the lugs 5 with close assembly tolerances.
  • the pin 6 has an annular groove 8 near one end and is formed with two flat parallel faces 9 in its zone between the lugs 5.
  • a plate indicated 10 has two holes 11 for fixing it by means of screws to the vehicle door, generally indicated 12.
  • the plate 10 has two vertically-aligned apertured bosses 14 and 15.
  • the central aperture 18 in the boss 15 communicates with a slot 16 defined between two inclined surfaces 17 which converge towards the aperture 18 ( Figures 5 and 6).
  • the door is then made to slide downwardly in the direction of the arrow B, the bosses 14 and 15 sliding on the respective pins 6 until the pairs of bosses 14 and 15 are brought into contact with the lugs 5.
  • a small U-shaped spring clip 20 is then located in the annular groove 8 of each pin 6 to lock the hinge assembly.
