Definitions

  • This invention relates to a power actuable hinge assembly having two pivotally interconnected hinge members.
  • Hinge assemblies having two pivotally interconnected hinge members but such assemblies are conventionally openable by a spring acting between the members to bias them apart into an open position. These conventional assemblies are normally locked in the open position by means of a pin which drops into apertures on the members in the open position. With such known assemblies no provision is made for unlocking or closing the assembly and this presents a serious drawback for some applications such as where it is necessary to open and close a hinge assembly at a position or location remote from the operator.
  • US-A-3295699 discloses a folded boom system having a number of hinge members pivotably connected together which is openable by reeling in a cable fastened to a drive motor. Latch means are provided for securing the boom elements together in the open position. However no means are provided for unlatching the boom elements and folding them back into a closed position.
  • FR-A-2566588 discloses a folded boom system having a number of hinge members pivotably connected together in which a cable powered by a drive motor is provided for opening and closing the boom elements about interconnecting hinge members for unlatching extended hinge members.
  • a power actuable hinge assembly comprising two hinge members hinged together by pivot means for movement between an open position in which the hinge members are unfolded and extend substantially co-axially in end-to-end relationship, and a closed position in which the hinge members are folded so that one hinge member is angularly displaced, with respect to the other hinge member, about the pivot means, out of the end-to-end relationship, drive means for unfolding or folding the hinge members, characterised in that the drive means includes a drive shaft rotatably mounted on one hinge member and carrying a worm in mesh with a worm-wheel mounted for rotation with the other hinge member about the hinge axis, and in that the worm is mounted for axial slidable movement relative to the axis of the drive shaft against pre-load biasing means, so that the hinge members are biased together to be thereby locked in the open position because of axial movement of the worm against the biasing means due to continued rotation of the drive shaft with the worm-wheel in a stopped position corresponding to
  • the hinge members are hinged about a pivot pin and the hinge members are each of substantially elongated channel form and substantially U shaped in cross-section with a base web and two spaced apart side webs, which side webs each have an apertured pivot lug at or near the outermost comer thereof remote from the base web for receiving the pivot pin, and with the hinge members being dimensioned such that the base web of one hinge member is smaller in width than the base web of the other hinge member at the pivot lugs with the pivot pin passing through the aligned lug apertures.
  • the assembly includes an Acme externally screw threaded nose portion fixed to and projecting from the free end of the drive shaft for rotation therewith and a complementary Acme internally screw threaded lock nut non-rotatably but axially movably mounted on the other hinge member to that on which the drive shaft is mounted.
  • the lock nut is axially movably mounted in one end of a sleeve to which it is connected for axial but not rotative relative movement, with the other end of the sleeve being axially slidably mounted on a spigot fixedly attached to the said other hinge member.
  • the pre-load biasing means includes a first spring means between the spigot and the sleeve resiliently to bias the sleeve axially away from the spigot, and wherein a second spring means is provided between the other end of the sleeve and the end face of the nut innermost in the sleeve to bias the nut axially away from the sleeve, with deflector means being associated with the nose portion on the drive shaft to contact the leading end of the lock nut during angular pivoting movement of the respective hinge member, displace the nut rearwardly against the biasing force of the second spring means until the nose portion and nut are in axial alignment whereupon the second spring means biasing force re-urges the nut into contact with the nose portion for screw threaded engagement therewith on continued rotation of the drive shaft.
  • a power actuable, openable and closable, lockable and unlockable, hinge assembly as generally indicated at 1 in the accompanying drawings is intended primarily for use to interconnect two sections of a collapsible and extensible boom or mast. However although described in the following in terms of its use with such a boom or mast it is to be understood that the hinge assembly of the invention can be used for any other purposes as desired.
  • the hinge assembly 1 according to a first embodiment of the invention as shown in Figures 1 to 4 has pivot means 2 and two hinge members, namely an inner hinge member 3 and an outer hinge member 4 pivotally interconnected by the pivot means 2 for relative angular movement between an open position as shown in Figures 1, 2 and 4 in which the hinge members 3 and 4 extend substantially co-axially in end-to-end relationship and a closed position shown in Figure 3, in which the inner hinge member 3 is angularly displaced, with respect to the outer hinge member 4 about the pivot means 2 out of the end-to-end relationship.
  • the open position is pivoted through 180° from the closed position for the purpose of stowing in side by side relationship sections 5 and 6 of a mast or boom assembly (see Figure 1), but for alternative uses of the hinge assembly 1 the open position could be at any angular relationship to the closed position such as a 90° position.
  • the hinge assembly 1 of the present invention also includes a power drivable actuator locking means generally indicated at 7 having a first movable portion 8 carried on the outer hinge member 4 and a second co-operating movable portion 9 carried on the inner hinge member 3.
  • the first and second movable portions 8 and 9 are in engagement with one another.
  • the actuator locking means 7 is selectively operable to open and lock the hinge members 3 and 4 together by pivoting one of the hinge members, preferably the inner hinge member 3, from the closed position about the pivot means 2 into the substantially coaxial end-to-end relationship of the open position and then causing one of the movable portions 8, 9 to move in one direction relative to the other of said movable portions to lock the hinge members 3 and 4 together as will be later described in more detail in respect of Figures 3 and 4.
  • the actuator locking means 7 is also operable selectively to unlock and close the hinge members 3 and 4 by unlocking the end to end hinge members by causing one of the movable portions 8, 9 to move in the opposite direction relative to the other movable portion and then to pivot one of the hinge members, preferably the inner hinge member 3, about the pivot means 2 angularly with respect to the outer hinge member 4 out of the end-to-end relationship into the closed portion.
  • the pivot means 2 includes a pivot pin 10 supported by bearings which may be plain, ball or pre-loaded angular contact bearings, in the outer hinge member 4.
  • the hinge members 3 and 4 are each of substantially elongated channel form and substantially U shaped in cross section with a base web 3a and 4a and two spaced apart side webs 3b and 4b.
  • the side webs 3b and 4b each have an apertured pivot lug 3c and 4c at or near the outermost corner thereof, as can be seen in Figures 1 and 2, remote from the base web 3a, 4a for receiving the pivot pin 10.
  • the hinge members 3 and 4 are dimensioned such that the base web 3a of the inner hinge member 3 is smaller in width than the base web 4a of the outer hinge member 4 so that the inner hinge member 3 fits within the outer hinge member 4 at the pivot lugs 3c and 4c with the pivot pin 10 passing through the aligned lug apertures.
  • the outer hinge member 4 is fixedly attached to the hinge pin 10 to rotate therewith.
  • the inner hinge member 3 is rotationally supported by bearings which may be plain, ball or pre-loaded angular contact bearings, on the pivot pin 10 for pivotal rotational movement relative thereto.
  • the actuator locking means 7 includes a rotatable drive shaft 11 rotatably carried at bearings 12 in the outer hinge member 4 to extend substantially transversely to the longitudinal axis of the pivot pin 10. Also forming part of the means 7 is a screw threaded worm, forming the first movable portion 8, carried on the drive shaft 11 adjacent a free end thereof which is adjacent the open pivot pin end of the outer hinge member 4 for rotation with the drive shaft 11.
  • the worm 8 is a single start worm.
  • a screw threaded worm wheel forming the second movable portion 9, which may be peripherally interrupted as at 9a.
  • the worm wheel 9 is in mesh with the worm 8 and is rotationally mounted on the pivot pin 10 via bearings to rotate with the inner hinge member 3.
  • the worm 8 is mounted for axial slidable movement along the shaft 11 against pre-load biasing means such as compression spring 13 mounted on the shaft 11 between a collar 14 fixed to the shaft 11 and a shoulder 15 fixed relative to the outer hinge member 4.
  • pre-load biasing means such as compression spring 13 mounted on the shaft 11 between a collar 14 fixed to the shaft 11 and a shoulder 15 fixed relative to the outer hinge member 4.
  • the actuator locking means 7 includes a drive motor connected to the end of the drive shaft 11 remote from the free end.
  • This drive motor preferably is an electric motor 16 with gearbox housed in and attached to the outer hinge member 4 which drives the shaft 11 by means of a motor output shaft 17 which is flexibly coupled to the adjacent end of the drive shaft 11.
  • This form of construction allows for a degree of end float between the motor 16 and shaft 11 if necessary.
  • the motor 16 has been shown as integral with the hinge assembly member 4 it is alternatively possible to provide a drive motor externally of the assembly so that a plurality of hinge assemblies can be actuated by means of a single drive motor in communication with the individual drive assemblies in a multi section boom or mast via a control drive cable passing through the sections.
  • the hinge assembly 1 according to the first embodiment of the invention as illustrated in Figures 1 to 4 operates in the following way. With the hinge assembly in the closed position as shown in Figure 3 rotation of the drive shaft 11 by the electric motor and gear box 16 transmits rotary motion to the worm 8 which in turn, being in mesh with the worm wheel 9, transmits rotary motion to the worm wheel 9. This causes the hinge member 3 to pivot about the pivot pin 10 into the fully closed end-to-end position of the hinge members 3 and 4 as shown in Figures 4, 1 and 2.
  • the direction of movement of the hinge member 3 relative to the hinge member 4 depends on the direction of rotation of the worm 8 and on whether or not the worm thread left or right handed.
  • the worm 8 is mounted on a sleeve 18 which is slidably movable on the drive shaft 11 under axial restraint of the compression spring 13.
  • the hinge assembly movement resistance torque is less than the pre-load effect of the spring 13 the worm 8 will not move axially.
  • the hinge members will not be displaced until the worm 8 has been displaced axially towards the right into the position shown in Figure 4 where the pre-load in the spring 13 is equal to the hinge resistance torque.
  • the locking action of the worm 8 and worm wheel 9 is as follows.
  • the hinge assembly 1 When the hinge assembly 1 is in the fully open position of Figures 1, 2 and 4 the hinge torque resistance is much higher in the opening direction than the pre-load on the worm 8.
  • the worm 8 is rotated further in the opening direction, it is axially displaced towards the right into the position shown in Figure 4 and the pre-load in the spring 13 is increased.
  • This increase in the spring pre-load causing the hinge assembly itself to be pre-loaded.
  • the hinge pre-load is dependent on the spring pre-load, the size of the worm/worm wheel gear set and the geometry of contact points or stops 19 on the hinge members 3 and 4.
  • the worm/worm wheel gear set is non-back drivable so that when the worm 8 is pre-loaded against its spring 13 the pre-load in the hinge assembly 1 is maintained after the drive torque is removed from the worm 8.
  • controllable compliance is built into the worm/worm wheel gear set so that a controllable and predictable pre-load is achievable simply by tightening up the gear set. A separate pre-loading or locking mechanism is thus not necessary.
  • the compliance within the gear set makes the hinge assembly 1 partially back drivable which is an advantage during vibration or loading. Additionally the hinge assembly 1 according to the embodiment of Figures 1 to 4 can be pre-loaded in the open condition or the closed condition.
  • the worm 8 and worm wheel 9 are each Acme threaded.
  • a tinge assembly according to the second embodiment of the invention as illustrated in Figures 5 to 8 of the present application basically is similar to that of the first embodiment of Figures 1 to 4 and like parts have been given like reference numerals and will not be further described in detail.
  • the hinge members 3 and 4 have been shown in Figure 5 only and not in Figures 6 to 8.
  • Figures 5 to 8 also includes an Acme externally screw threaded nose portion 20 fixed to and projecting from the free end of the drive shaft 11.
  • the nose portion 20 may be formed integrally with the drive shaft 11 by machining therefrom.
  • the shaft 11 and nose portion 20 are formed they are formed so as to rotate together.
  • a complementary Acme internally screw threaded lock nut 21 non-rotatably but axially movably mounted on the inner hinge member 3. The nut 21 is axially movable along its longitudinal axis, which, in the open position of the assembly 1, is coaxial with the longitudinal axis of the drive shaft 11 and Acme nose portion 20.
  • the longitudinal axis 11a of the drive shaft 11 preferably is not coaxial with the longitudinal axis of the hinge member 4 but preferably is slightly spaced from the longitudinal axis of the hinge member 4 on the side thereof remote from the pivot pin 10.
  • the longitudinal axis of the nut 21 is not coincident with the longitudinal axis of the hinge member 3 but preferably is spaced slightly therefrom on the side thereof remote from the pivot pin 10. This offset location of the axes is to improve the locking and unlocking action of the nut 21.
  • the nut 21 is axially movably mounted in one end of a sleeve 22 to which it is connected for axial but not rotative relative movement in any convenient manner.
  • the other end of the sleeve 22 is axially slidably mounted on a spigot fixedly attached to the inner hinge member 3.
  • a first spring means in the form of a disc spring 24 is provided between a shoulder portion 23a of the spigot 23 and the sleeve end face 22a.
  • the disc spring 24 acts as a pre-load compliance spring.
  • a second spring means in the form of a light compression spring preferably is provided within the sleeve between the facing end of the nut 21 and an internal shoulder provided on the sleeve at the end 22a thereof. This compression spring acts to bias the nut 21 axially away from the sleeve.
  • Deflector means in the form of a collar 25 surrounding the nose portion 20, are provided on the hinge member 4 or on a housing 26 of the worm 8 to contact the leading end 21a of the nut 21, as illustrated in Figure 6, during angular pivoting movement of the inner hinge member 3.
  • This contact is such that the collar 25 acts as a cam face which displaces the nut 21 rearwardly against the biasing force of the spring 24 until the nose portion 20 and nut 21 are in axial alignment whereupon the spring 24 re-urges the nut 21 into contact with the nose portion 20 so that on continued rotation of the actuator means drive shaft 11 the screw thread of the nose portion 20 engages the screw thread in the nut 21 drawing the nut 21 onto the nose portion 20.
  • the hinge member 3 continues to open as shown in Figure 7 and the nut 21 is further displaced axially into the sleeve 22 against the spring.
  • the screw thread on the nose portion 20 starts to engage the internal screw thread on the nut 21 and with the worm wheel 9 at the end of its permitted travel the worm 8 runs along the worm wheel 9 towards the right said side of Figure 8.
  • the drive motor 16 continues to run and the worm 8 and nose portion 20 continue to rotate so that the nut 21 is drawn onto the nose portion 20 with the assistance of the compression spring.
  • the spigot 23 is pulled axially forward with the nut 21 until the disc spring 23 is clamped tight between the spigot shoulder 23a and the sleeve end face 22a as shown in Figure 8.
  • This provides the desired pre-load which can be used to initiate a switch off of the drive motor 16, preferably by means of a microswitch on the spring 23.
  • the degree of pre-load can be varied by appropriate choice of the configuration and/or number of elements in the disc spring 23.
  • the drive motor 16 could be a stepper motor programmed to rotate the nut 21 by a predetermined number of steps to achieve the correct degree of pre-load on the spring 23.
  • Figure 8 represents the hinge assembly 1 in the fully locked open position.
  • Reclosure is effected by operating the assembly in the reverse direction.
  • Initial rotation of the motor 16 drives the worm 8 along the stationary worm wheel 9 so freeing, i.e. unscrewing, the nose portion 20 from the lock nut 21 and returning the assembly to the Figure 7 position.
  • Continued operation of the motor 16 rotates the worm wheel 9 and displaces the hinge member 3 through the Figure 6 position back into the fully closed position of Figure 5.
  • Complementary finger and recessed means preferably are provided on the two hinge members 3 and 4 with the finger means projecting substantially parallel to the longitudinal axes of the two hinge members.
  • the finger means may be provided on one hinge member and the recess means on the other hinge member or some of the finger means may be provided on one hinge member and some on the other hinge member with the recess means being distributed accordingly on the two hinge members.
  • the purpose of the finger and recess means is that the finger means engage in the appropriate complementary recesses in the open position of the hinge assembly 1 to improve the rigidity and transverse load carrying capability of the assembly in the open position.
  • the complementary finger and recess means conveniently take the form of a cylindrical, or tapered, finger 27 mounted on the side web 4b of the outer hinge member 4 to project proud of the end thereof towards the inner hinge member 3, and a recessed member 28 having a complementary shaped recess for receiving the leading end of the finger 27.
  • the member 28 is mounted on the inner hinge member side web 3b with the mouth of the recess opening towards the outer hinge member 4.
