Definitions

  • This invention relates to a hinge for a pivot window, particularly, but not exclusively, a pivot window for installation in an inclined roof.
  • Such hinges have been proposed heretofore and consist of two hinge parts, each hinge part having a base plate for securement respectively to a frame and to a sash of a window. Both plates are intended to be screw fastened to their respective surface with both having at least two spaced spigot pins on their respective reverse face to locate in corresponding socket holes provided in their respective surface.
  • One hinge part has on an obverse face guide means in the form of a part-circular guide having two members with the other hinge part having on its obverse face a slide member adapted to be displaceable in the guide between the two members.
  • the slide member of the other hinge part also defines a tilting axis for sash movement near the closed position with the axis being outside the window thickness.
  • the other hinge part is pivotable with respect to the one hinge part on a hinge pin carried by the slide member and is movable from a position within the window thickness to a position outside said thickness during movement of the sash away from the closed position by swinging around said tilting axis.
  • the slide member is desirably capable of maintaining any position in the guide members corresponding to keeping the window sash in a suitable ventilating position, but also the friction should not be so high that it hampers the opening and closing of the window and causes noticeable wear on the Involved parts, that is on the part circular outside faces of the slide member and the inside faces of the two members of the guide means.
  • a spring segment or blade spring which to a suitable extent urges the opposite side of the slide member against the convex side of the inner guide member.
  • DE-A-20 00 450 relates in its modified embodiment to a hinge (pivot bearer) for pivot windows comprising two hinge parts, each having a base plate for securement respectively to a frame and to a sash of a window, the part of the hinge on the frame having an elongate circular recess having one open end and a closed end and in which a bearer element slides together with the second part of the hinge on the sash, the whole being movable in order to fix the window leaf pivot axis which is outside the window leaf.
  • the parts can be pushed into one another so that they form a telescopic friction bearing.
  • GB-A- 2 334 999 relates to a friction window hinge of three parts, namely a frame part, a vent part and a curved link between the two plates, which link is slidably engagable in a curved guide track provided on each plate. Outward sliding movement is limited by a stop on the link engagable with a projection integrally formed on the frame part. The link is not connected to either part but slides relative thereto on the guide tracks between the limits of movement.
  • An object of the present invention Is to obviate or mitigate the problems described above.
  • the present invention Is a hinge for pivot windows comprising two hinge parts, both hinge parts having a base plate for securement respectively to a frame and to a sash of a window, a first hinge part having on an obverse face guide means of part-circular formation and formed of two spaced guide members defining an arcuate passageway therebetween and a second hinge part having on its obverse face a slide member pivoted at one end thereof and having an arcuate finger, the parts interacting with each other when the other end of the arcuate finger is slidable in and out of the passageway between the two guide members and a guide pin secured to the base plate of the second hinge part is provided to enter the passageway in front of the finger, the two guide members and/or the slide member are all formed of a hard wearing plastics, the guide pin having at least a covering of a resilient material, the pin having a dimension greater than the spacing between the two guide members.
  • the base plate and the two guide members are formed of a plastics material and integrally formed in the first hinge part.
  • the first hinge part has projecting outwardly from a reverse face at least one load-bearing spigot element to locate in a corresponding socket hole provided in a respective surface of a frame of a window to which the hinge is to be secured.
  • At least one load-bearing spigot element is of plastics material and formed integrally with the base plate and guide members in the first hinge part.
  • one side of one guide member bounding the passageway is recessed between two bosses, one at each end of the passageway and an arcuate leaf spring of similar width of the side is positioned thereat, the spring having curved ends, each to clip over a respective boss and be held thereby.
  • one or both guide members may be provided with a slot substantially along their length with the part of the guide member adjacent to the passageway being separated from the plate whereby to provide an additional resilience with that part thereby being made more resilient.
  • the side of each guide member defining the passageway may be provided with a lengthwise series of indentations.
  • a hinge for pivot windows comprises two hinge parts 10, 12. Both hinge parts 10, 12 have a base plate 14, 16 for securement by screw fastenings through screw holes 18 respectively to a frame (not shown) and to a sash of a window (not shown).
  • a first hinge part 10 has on an obverse face guide means of part-circular formation and formed of two spaced guide members 20, 22 defining a passageway 24 therebetween with a second hinge part 12 having on its obverse face a slide member 26 adapted to be displaceable in the passageway 24 of the guide between the two guide members 20, 22.
  • the base plate 14 and/or guide members 20, 22 of the first hinge part 10 are Integrally formed of a hard wearing plastics material.
  • the passageway 24 is a blind slot, the guide members 20, 22 being joined atone end.
  • the first hinge part 10 has on a reverse face two load-bearing, spigot pins 28 to locate in corresponding socket holes (not shown) provided in a respective surface of a frame and of a sash of a window to which the hinge is to be secured, the load-boaring, spigot pins 28 being integrally formed in the first hinge part.
