Definitions
- the present invention relates to a safety hinge, preferably for windows and doors, comprising a first hinge part for fastening on a stationary frame part and a second hinge part for fastening on an opening leaf or sash part, which hinge parts have substantially tubular guideways, which at assembly of the hinge parts are axially aligned and, for removable axially positioned retention of a hinge pin, together form a substantially continuous tubular bearing which is closed at one end and open at the other end and has a greater length than the hinge pin so that the said hinge pin does not project from the open end of the bearing, the bearing being formed with an opening which is accessible only in an open position of the leaf part or the sash part for disengagement of the hinge pin for removal from the bearing.
- the hinge pin is secured against unauthorized removal by means of a hole formed on a side of the bearing which is inaccessible when the leaf part or sash part is in its closed position, through which hole a securing screw can be screwed into the pin.
- the pin is disengaged for removal, which may, for example, be effected by hitting the pin with a punch which is inserted through the open end of the bearing, possibly after removal of a closing screw therein as shown in the above FR publication.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a hinge of a simple design in which the hinge pin is secured against removal in the closed position of the leaf or sash part without the use of securing screws or similar additional securing elements, so that the safety against burglary is always effective in this position.
- a safety hinge of the type stated characterized in that said opening is provided in a position on a side of a first guideway, which is inaccessible in the closed position of the leaf or sash part, such that in the said open position it permits insertion of a tool for impact on the hinge pin for disengagement thereof from the bearing.
- the pin can only be removed in the open position of the leaf or sash part by insertion of a tool for impact on the pin through the said side opening.
- the closed end of the bearing prevents removal of the pin by axial impact, for example by means of a punch, and as the pin does not project from the open end of the bearing there is no possibility of removal by means of nippers or the like. Due to the absence of a securing screw or similar additional securing elements there is no risk of oversights in connection with the mounting leading to lack of securing of the hinge.
- the hinge parts and the pin can be made of materials of the necessary strength and corrosion resistance, such as iron alloys, bronze alloys or light metal alloys, if necessary with a corrosion-resistant coating. Synthetic materials of the required strength can also be used.
- the hinge can be manufactured by conventional processes comprising, for example, punching or bending of plate-shaped material or casting or forging.
- the safety hinge according to the invention has three knuckles and comprises a first hinge part 1 for fastening on a frame 4, such as a window frame, a second hinge part 2 for fastening on the opening sash part 5 of the window and a hinge pin 9.
- the hinge parts 1 and 2 each has a fastening part 3 and 3a, respectively, in the form of a conventional plate element with holes for screws or other retaining elements for secure fastening of the hinge parts 1 and 2 to the frame 4 and the sash part 5, respectively.
- the fastening part 3 for the hinge part 1 is formed as a plate angle, a so-called angle brace, which makes it more difficult to remove the hinge part 1 once it has been mounted on the frame 4.
- the hinge part 1 is formed with a first and a second tubular guideway 6 and 7, respectively, in linear, coaxial alignment and with a space for positioning of a third tubular guideway 8 pertaining to the second hinge part 2.
- the guideways 6, 7 and 8 together form a tubular bearing for reception of the hinge pin 9 and provision of the assembled hinge.
- the bearing formed by the guideways 6, 7 and 8 is continuous.
- the first guideway 6 on the hinge part 1 and thus the assembled bearing are closed at one end so that the pin 9 is inaccessible through the said end. This renders it impossible to remove the pin 9 by axial impact, for example with a punch, from this closed end.
- the second guideway 7 on the hinge part 1 is open at both ends for providing an open end of the assembled bearing for removal of the pin 9.
- the length of the pin 9 is smaller than the total length of the bearing formed by the guideways 6, 7 and 8, and as shown in Fig. 3 the pin 9 is positioned in the bearing in the axial direction so that it does not project from the open end of the bearing, which renders it impossible to remove the pin from the said end, for example by means of nippers or similar tools, in the closed position of the window.
- the pin 9 In the closed position of the window, in which the hinge parts 1 and 2 are folded together as shown in Fig. 2, the pin 9 thus presents no points of attack accessible from the outside and is thereby secured against unauthorized removal from the bearing.
- an opening 11 is positioned on the side 10 of the first guideway 6 on the first hinge part 1, which is inaccessible in the closed position of the sash part 5, but which is accessible from the outside in the open position, the said opening being positioned in the axial direction on a level with the end surface 15 of the pin 9 inserted in the guideway 6.
- the pin 9 can be pushed in the axial direction towards the open end of the bearing at the end of the second guideway 7 and thus be disengaged from its axial retention in the bearing, which may be provided by press fitting of the pin into the guideway 6.
- the embodiment shown in Figs. 1-3 comprises an opening 12 in the form of a recess at the opening edge of the guideway positioned on the side of the second guideway 7 which is only accessible in the open position, and in the vicinity of the end surface inserted in the guideway 7, the pin 9 is manufactured with a transverse hole 13 which at disengagement of the pin is brought into communication with the recess 12.
- the recess 12 also functions as an engaging part for positioning of the pin 9 in both the axial and radial directions, as the pin 9 flush with the hole 13 is manufactured with a lug 14 projecting from its end surface.
- the lug 14 is pushed into the recess 12, thereby achieving exact positioning of the pin 9 both axially, so that the end surface 15 is placed on a level with the opening 11 in the first guideway 6, and radially for placing the hole 13 on a level with the recess 12 in the second guideway 7.
- the design of the second guideway 7 with the recess 12 and of the pin with the hole 13 in correspondence therewith and the engaging lug 14 is not, however, a necessary characteristic of the hinge according to the invention, as the desired possibility of removing the pin 9 in the open position of the sash part 5 can be provided solely by means of the opening 11 in the first guideway 6 positioned on a level with the end surface 15 of the pin 9, especially if the opening 11 as shown in Fig. 1 is manufactured as an axially extending slot, which provides a certain amount of tolerance in respect of the positioning of the end surface 15 when the pin 9 is pressed into the guideway 6.
- the axial retention of the pin 9 in the bearing can be secured solely by press fitting of the pin into the guideway 6, as the inner surface of the guideway 6 and the part of the pin 9 intended for insertion therein may, for example, be slightly conical as shown in Fig. 3.
- the pin 9 may alternatively be manufactured with a hole or a recess, with which the inserted tool engages instead of acting direct on the end surface 15 of the pin.
- disengagement of the pin 9 for removal from the bearing can be effected by insertion of a tool below the lug 14 pressed into the recess 12, thus rendering dispensable the opening 11 in the guideway 6 with the closed end.
- the two-knuckle hinge has guideways 17 and 18 on each one of two hinge parts 19 and 20 for fastening on a frame and a sash part, respectively.
- the pin 21 For securing the axial retention of the pin 21 in the bearing formed by the guideways 17 and 18, the pin 21 must, in this embodiment, be inserted with relatively tight press fitting into the guideway 18 containing the closed end of the bearing.
- the guideways 17 and 18 as well as the pin 21 can furthermore be manufactured with openings 22 and 23 and a hole 24 and a lug 25, respectively, in the same way as described above for the embodiment shown in Figs. 1-3.
- the guideway 18 may be manufactured without the engaging parts 23 and 25, but if so the pin 21 must be press fitted or otherwise retained in both guideways 17 and 18.
- the two-knuckle hinge in Figs. 4 and 5 is substantially suited for horizontal mounting, for example as a hinge for a top-hung window, while the hinge designed with three or more knuckles can be used both for horizontal and vertical mounting, in the latter case with optional orientation of the bearing with the open end facing upwards as shown in Fig. 1 or downwards.
