- the damper 500 inserted to the adapter 200 moves in a forward direction to be retuned to an original position by the sprig 112. While opening, the oil in the main body 100 flows from a BB section to an AA section.
- the oil in the BB section flows to the AA section passing through a case oil passage hole 130d of the sponge case 130, an oil passage hole 124e of the piston holder 124 and an oil passage hole 12B of the piston 120.
- the hinge operation part 312 pushes the hinge guide stopper 102.
- the damper 500 is inserted into the adaptor body 230. Accordingly, the rod 160 is inserted to the inside of the damper 500 and the oil moves from the AA section to the BB section.
- the oil in the AA section flows along the oil passage groove 124c through the oil passage hole 120b formed on a center portion of the piston 120 and the oil through hole 124c. After then, the oil flows to the sponge 132 through the case oil passage hole 130d of the sponge case 130. And then, the oil flows to the oil passage hole 214E through the oil passage control groove 114 of the spring guide 110.
- the hinge operation part 312 pushes the hinge guide stopper 102 with an impact, and the damper 500 is inserted into the adaptor body 230.
- the rod 160 is also inserted inside the damper 500 and the oil flows from the AA section to the BB section.
- the flow of the oil is identical to that of the case of slowly closing a door.
- an outer peripheral surface of the oil passage hole 120b of the piston 200 becomes closely adhered to the oil control groove 124d by the inertia force as shown as a dotted circle E in FIG. 14 .
- the entrance of the oil passage hole 120b become narrow and accordingly, the amount of flowing oil is suddenly reduced by blocking a predetermined portion of the oil passage groove 124c.
- the amount of the flowing oil is reduced after the piston 120 reaches the end of the oil control groove 14 of the spring guide 110, which is the deceleration section, to smoothly close the door.
- the damper 500 is formed as a rectangular shape having tapered corners in order to widen a size of the piston that absorbs the impact. Such a rectangular shaped damper 500 with round corners can absorb three or more times greater impact than a circular damper 500. And, it is easier to manufacture the rectangular shaped damper than the circular damper.

Description
- The present invention relates to a door damper, which is attachable to a door hinge and which is to reduce an impact and perform a damping function when a strong impact is applied.
- Generally, furniture and kitchen units have a door that can be closed or opened using a spring hinge. When the door is opened or closed, big noise occurs because a door is slammed into a frame of furniture with a bang. Specifically, there is bigger noise when children carelessly slam the door of the furniture. Moreover, it can be very dangerous for the children and also the furniture can be easily damaged.
- To resolve these problems, when door is closed, an impact and noise of the door can be reduced by installing a damper at a frame of the furniture. Moreover, the damage of the furniture can be prevented by installing a damper for furniture.
- Referring to
FIG. 19 , in a conventional damper for furniture, acylindrical damper 1 is inserted in a hole formed away from a door hinge or anadditional holder 2 mounted on a frame of furniture. - The reason why the damper is mounted away from the door hinge with a maximum distance is that a minimum power can be used to absorb an impact when the impact is directly applied to the end of the door. Because the force of closing the door needs to be the strongest at end of the door, that is, a portion of the door furthest from the door hinges.
- As the damper is closer to the door hinge from the end of the door, the force of closing the door correlates in strength to the length that the damper moves. Consequently, the damper needs to absorb the impact with greater power.
- Moreover, since the damper is formed on a frame of furniture in a circular shape, the size of the damper is limited. Consequently, the damper can not handle a greater impact and also there is a limitation to change a mounting position of the damper.
- Since the damper is protruded from a side of frame in furniture, appearance becomes somewhat awkward. Moreover, the damper or the holder can be easily broken because the damper is protruded when door is open.

Thespring guide 110 is formed in a cylindrical shape, a fixing steppedend 110a is formed on an end of the rear with a thinner diameter, and apassage control groove 114 is formed on a side with a predetermined length in a longitudinal direction respectively. - A section of the
passage control groove 114 is used for a damping section since oil runs when absorbing an impact, and an end of the passage control groove can be used for a deceleration section. - The
piston 120 is formed of a thin film of a material (e.g., rubber) having elasticity. Thepiston 120 has an open front side and a closed rear side. Also, the piston has twoinsert holes 120a and one passage hole 120B. - The
piston 120 has a stepped stopper to a predetermined depth at the rear side and has thepassage hole 120b formed on the center thereof. The outer periphery of thepassage hole 120b has a tapered shape tapering toward the rear side and protruding to the rear side. - A
spring holder 122 is formed such that it is inserted into the open inner periphery of thepiston 120. Thespring stand 122 includes: athin press plate 122b formed to press aspring 112 when adamper 500 operates (i.e., abody 100 is pushed to the rear side); and asupport plate 122a perpendicularly bent at the upper and lower surfaces of thepress plate 122b and having a predetermined width. - The
support plate 122b is designed to fix upper and lower inner walls of thepiston 120 and allow the piston to operate with the outer periphery of thepiston 120 closely contacted with the inner periphery of thebody 100. - The
press plate 122b has two guides throughholes 122c that allow each spring guide 106 to pass through at both ends of thepress plate 122b, and has a center passed through. - The
piston holder 124 closely contacts the rear side of thepiston 120 to support thepiston 120. Thepiston holder 124 has a plate shape whose outer periphery is the same as the outer periphery of thepiston 120 and has four sides spaced a little width from the inner wall of thebody 100. - Also, the
piston holder 124 has two throughholes 124b communicating with twoinsert holes 120a formed at the rear side of thepiston 120 to receive aspring guide 110. Apassage groove 124c, apassage control groove 124d, and a passage throughhole 124e are formed at the center of thepiston holder 124, and arod fixing member 124a is protruded at the center of the rear side to allow therod 160 to be inserted and fixed therein. - The
passage control groove 124d is a groove formed at the front center of thepiston holder 124 and has a shape that corresponds to the outer periphery of thepassage hole 120b tapered at the rear side of thepiston 120. - Also, the
passage groove 124c cut with a predetermined width is formed to communicate at both sides of thepassage control groove 124d, and the passage throughhole 124e is formed at the end of thepassage groove 124c. - Unlike the shape of the
piston 120, thesponge case 130 has a closed front side and an open rear side. Arod inserting hole 130a is formed at the front center of thesponge case 130 to receive therod fixing member 124a and therod 160. Twoguide fixing holes 130b are formed at positions spaced right and left of therod inserting hole 130a. Acase passage hole 130d formed in a rectangular through hole shape is spaced up and down of eachguide fixing hole 130b. Asponge guide 130c having a partition shape formed from the front to the rear is formed on the inside with the same length as that of the rear of thesponge case 130. - The
sponge 132 closely contacts eachsponge guide 130c and the inner wall of thesponge case 130 and is inserted therein. - The
packing 140a blocks the rear side of thesponge case 130 and has anadherent part 140a to allow the outer periphery to closely contact the end side of the fixingpart 108 formed at the rear side of thebody 100. The packingpart 140 has arod packing part 140b formed at the center thereof, therod packing part 140b having a through hole so that oil may not leak out along arod 160. - The cover has an open front side and a closed rear side and has a hole at the rear side thereof so that the
rod 160 may be inserted therein. - The
cover 150 has a side formed to receive the fixingpart 108 made thin by the stepped stopper of thebody 100. At this point, thecover 150 has an outer periphery that coincides with the outer periphery of thebody 100. That is, the fixingpart 108 and thecover 150 overlap each other at the rear side of the stepped stopper of thebody 100. At this point, the fixingpart 108 sticks on the rear inner wall of thecover 150 with the packing 140 interposed. Therod 160 passes through the hole of thecover 150 and the hole formed on arod packing part 140b of the packing 140 and is mounted on arod fixing member 124a. At this point, therod 160 is protruded from thecover 150 to the rear side. - Hereinafter, assembling and operation of a damper attachable to a door hinge according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.
- The
damper 500 is assembled as follows. Thesprings 122 is inserted to eachspring guide 110 of themain body 100, and thespring holder 122 is inserted to a front side of thepiston 120. After inserting, thepiston holder 124 adhercs closely to a rear side of thepiston 120, and the insertinghole 120a of thepiston 120 is inserted to thespring guide 110. The fixing steppedend 110a formed on thespring guide 110 is inserted to theguide fixing hole 130b of the spring, and then thesponge 132 is inserted. - After inserting the fixing stepped
end 110a into theguide fixing hole 130b, the packing 140 is inserted inside thecover 150, and the fixingpart 108 of themain body 100 is inserted to thecover 150. At the moment, the end of the fixingpart 108 is pressed to theadherent part 140a of the packing 140 to contact to the end of the fixingpart 108 and theadherent part 140a. The fixing steppedend 110a and the front end of thecover 150 are fused using high frequency. - After then, the oil is injected inside the
main body 100 and thecover 150 through a hole formed at a center portion of the rear side of thecover 150. After injecting the oil, therod 160 is inserted and fixed in therod fixing hole 124a of thepiston holder 124. Finally, thedamper 500 is completely assembled. - Such a
damper 500 is inserted to theadapter 200 to contact therod 160 protruded from the rear side ofdamper 500 to an inside surface of thedamper 500 and to insert the conveystopper 103 of themain body 100 in theguide part 222 of the auxiliary supportingpart 210 of theadaptor 200. - When the
damper 500 is pushed in a backward direction, the conveystopper 103 is conveyed along theguide part 222, and accordingly, therod 160 is inserted to the inside of thedamper 500. That is, the insertedrod 160 pushes thepiston holder 124, and the pushedpiston holder 124 pushes thepiston 120. As a result, thespring holder 122 presses thespring 112. - As shown in
FIG. 17 , thedamper 500 jointing to the adapter is coupled to thehinge fixing part 300 using thestopper 220 formed at a front lower portion of the auxiliary supportingpart 210 of theadaptor 200 and anotherstopper 220 formed on the front lower portion of theadaptor body 230. That is, the end of thehinge fixing part 300 is hooked on the stopper formed on the front lower portion of theadaptor body 230, and thestopper 220 formed on the front lower portion of the auxiliary supportingpart 210 is jointed to a connection groove (not shown) formed on thehinge fixing part 300. - The
hinge fixing part 300 hooked to thedamper 500 may be installed at a door or an inside of furniture as shown inFIG. 18 . Thehinge fixing part 300 installed the door or the furniture is jointed to thehinge 310 installed a corresponding predetermined location of the furniture to thehinge fixing part 310. - Hereinafter, operations of the damper 400 will be described in detail with reference to
FIGS. 14 and 15 according to three cases of operations, i.e., a case of opening a door, a case of slowly closing a door, and a case of forcibly closing a door. - When a door opens, the
damper 500 inserted to theadapter 200 moves in a forward direction to be retuned to an original position by thesprig 112. While opening, the oil in themain body 100 flows from a BB section to an AA section. - The oil in the BB section flows to the AA section passing through a case
oil passage hole 130d of thesponge case 130, anoil passage hole 124e of thepiston holder 124 and an oil passage hole 12B of thepiston 120. - When the piston 20 reaches the
oil control groove 114 of thespring guide 110 by the movement ofmain body 100, the oil in the AA section directly flows to the oil through hole 214E through theoil control groove 114. - When the door is slowly closed, the
hinge operation part 312 pushes thehinge guide stopper 102. As a result, thedamper 500 is inserted into theadaptor body 230. Accordingly, therod 160 is inserted to the inside of thedamper 500 and the oil moves from the AA section to the BB section. - The oil in the AA section flows along the
oil passage groove 124c through theoil passage hole 120b formed on a center portion of thepiston 120 and the oil throughhole 124c. After then, the oil flows to thesponge 132 through the caseoil passage hole 130d of thesponge case 130. And then, the oil flows to the oil passage hole 214E through the oilpassage control groove 114 of thespring guide 110. - When the
piston 120 reaches the end of the oilpassage control groove 114 of thespring guide 110 by the movement of themain body 100, the flow of the oil through the oilpassage control groove 114 of thespring guide 110 is closed. That is, the oil flows through only theoil passage hole 120b formed on a center portion of thepiston 120. Such an oil passage forms a deceleration section. That is, the amount of the flowing oil is reduced to smoothly close the door at the moment of completely closing the door. - When the door forcibly closes, the
hinge operation part 312 pushes thehinge guide stopper 102 with an impact, and thedamper 500 is inserted into theadaptor body 230. At this moment, therod 160 is also inserted inside thedamper 500 and the oil flows from the AA section to the BB section. - The flow of the oil is identical to that of the case of slowly closing a door. However, if the greater impact is applied, an outer peripheral surface of the
oil passage hole 120b of thepiston 200 becomes closely adhered to theoil control groove 124d by the inertia force as shown as a dotted circle E inFIG. 14 . As a result, the entrance of theoil passage hole 120b become narrow and accordingly, the amount of flowing oil is suddenly reduced by blocking a predetermined portion of theoil passage groove 124c. - As like as the case of slowly closing the door, the amount of the flowing oil is reduced after the
piston 120 reaches the end of the oil control groove 14 of thespring guide 110, which is the deceleration section, to smoothly close the door. - The
damper 500 is formed as a rectangular shape having tapered corners in order to widen a size of the piston that absorbs the impact. Such a rectangular shapeddamper 500 with round corners can absorb three or more times greater impact than acircular damper 500. And, it is easier to manufacture the rectangular shaped damper than the circular damper.
