Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of manufacturing male elements for hinge devices and male elements obtained thereby.
- hinges the male element whereof is internally hollow to lighten the construction while decreasing manufacturing costs.
- That prior type has, however, a drawback due to the particular construction of the male which, being hollow, during the galvanic bathing some of the liquid penetrates the interior of the same, contaminating the other successive vats, in the following steps required to complete the treatment.
- any liquid left inside the male may flow out thereof and attack, owing to its primarily acidic nature, .other hinges.
- the female bears and rotates on the base.
- the primary aim of this invention is, therefore, to eliminate the above cited drawbacks, by providing a method of manufacturing male elements, for hinge devices which are of low cost and feature a sealed construction.
- Another object is to provide a method of manufacturing male elements, for hinge devices which have a strong, homogeneous pivot point protected against any oxidizing agents present in the environment.
- a not least object is to provide a method of manufacturing male elements for hinge devices, which is fully automatic and implementable with ordinary equipment.
- a male element for hinge devices which is characterized in that it comprises a hollow body having protruding therefrom a pin the end whereof is sealed by a shaped body, adapted for rotatably supporting a female element, means being provided for associating said male element with casings.
- the method consists of a first step, of shearing a segment from a drawn rod (not shown), to define a blank.
- the material volume forming the blank should be equal to the volume of the material of the semifinished product to be obtained in the penultimate step of the method described hereinafter.
- the sheared blank is first upset by striking on a die to obtain a substantially regular cylinder 1 with one end 2 having a flat surface 3, and expediently formed with a rounded zone 4 at the peripheral edge of the opposite end.
- the cylinder 1 is cold extruded in a special die by means of a cylindrical punch having a smaller cross-sectional area than the surface 3; thus, causing the material flow laterally and upwards to define a body 5 with a cavity 6 of cylindrical shape, and an opening 7 at the end 2.
- means such as a die, reduces by striking, as illustrated in Figure 4, a portion of the body 5 at the end 2, to define a pin. 8, of open-ended cylindrical shape having an inner cavity 9 with the same shape and an opening 10 at its terminating end 11.
- the pin 8 has a smaller outside diameter than the body 5, between the two of them there being created a flat annular base 12.
- the next step envisages the press fitting of a shaped body at the opening 10 of the pin 8; that body is composed, in the preselected embodiment, of a ball 13 with a slightly larger diameter than the opening 10, though obviously, any other shaped body may be used which can be adapted for sealing the opening 10 of the pin 8 and providing a bearing of low frictional resistance for a female element.
- the ball 13, which is press fitted, is formed preferably from hardened steel, which causes the end 11 of the pin 8 to yield, creating in that step the housing seat; the fitting of the ball 13 into the opening 10 is, moreover, carried out so as to let a part of the curved surface of the ball project relatively to the terminating end 11 of the pin 8.
- the die which may be used to fit the ball into the end 11 advantageously defines a bevel which is adapted to squeeze the peripheral edges of the end 11 onto the lateral curved surface of the ball 13, this forming an aesthetic surface finish whilst completely sealing the pin 8.
- an end 14 of substantially hemispherical shape merging with the outer lateral wall 15 of the pin 8, and sealing the cavity 9 of the same so as to prevent the liquid from entering during the next step of immersion into galvanic baths for the necessary successive treatment steps.
- the end 14 becomes the terminating end of the pin 8 on which the flat, internal end of the female element 16, bears and turns with a very low coefficient of friction due to its small area of surface contact afforded by virtue of the carved terminating end of the pin.
- the female element has a cylindrical body 17 defining at an internal portion thereof a seat 19, shaped to substantially correspond to.the shape of the pin 8 of the male element 18, with necessary clearance, the depth of its seat 19 being slightly smaller than the length of the pin 8 itself, such that the flat end of the seat 19 bears directly onto the ball 13, and thus leaving a slight clearance between the end of the female element and the annular shoulder 12 of the male element.
- the hinge 23, given the shape of the pin 8 and the seat 19, has the feature of working on the end. 14 and not on the base 12.
- the cylinder 1 there may be obtained, at the end 4, a tang projecting according to the same mid-longitudinal axis, that tang being adapted to be later molded into any desired aesthetic shape.
- the shaped body fittable over the opening of the pin's open end may be a nail-like element with a larger diameter shank than that of the cavity 9 and whose head, preferably of hemispherical shape, serves as an optimum pivot point for the base of the seat 19 of the female, cr that body may comprise a hardened steel cylinder of larger diameter than the cavity 9, also acting as a pivot pin for the female.
