Hinge fitting

The innovation concerns a hinge fitting for a sash of windows, doors or the like that is mounted on a frame so that it can rotate, tilt or fold at least about a lateral axis. This consists of a frame joint component and a sash joint component, each of which is anchored to the frame or sash rebate peripheral surface via a fastening base and carries a joint eye or a bearing sleeve that constantly protrudes beyond the front surface of the frame on the inside of the room, but is concealed in a recess in the rear in the overlap.

engaging the holder mounted on the impact surface of the wing.

Hinge fittings of this type are known from US-PS 2 808 610 and have the advantage that all their functional parts are hidden in the sash overlap or covered by it when the sash is in the closed position against the frame, i.e. they have an invisible installation position and therefore do not affect the appearance of windows and doors with generally standard sash and frame profiling. The criterion for a generally usual or normal profile shape for sashes of windows, doors or similar that can be rotated, tilted, folded or even rotated and tilted about a lateral axis is that the sash profile - regardless of whether it is a window or door made of wood, plastic or metal or even a mixed construction of these materials - has a profile section, the so-called overlap, which, when the sash is closed, not only protrudes beyond the front surface of the frame on the inside of the room, but also overlaps the opening edge of the frame by a minimum amount in the direction of its installation plane.

According to DE-PS 15 59 934, hinge fittings - in the arrangement and design made known through US-PS 2 808 610 - are already known not only for windows and doors in wooden construction, but also for those in plastic or metal construction.

For windows and doors with normal or generally common profile design of the sash and frame beams, hinge fittings for completely concealed installation between the frame and sash rebate peripheral surfaces are already known, for example from GB-PS 1 163 798, EP-PS 0 204 267 and DE-OS 39 19 970, which function in the manner of so-called opening devices. For this purpose, they are equipped with several, namely at least two, opening arms, which engage on the one hand on a bearing rail on the frame and on the other hand on a retaining rail on the sash, either only pivotably or pivotably displaceably. Due to the extension arms used to control the movement of the sash between it and the frame, the support and holding of the opened sash is relatively unstable relative to the frame, because the extension arms of the extension device have to swing out both relative to the frame and relative to the sash and are exposed to the weight of the sash.

The disadvantages of the hinge fittings mentioned above are not present in the hinge fittings according to DE-GM 90 00 594 and DE-GM 90 16 204, just as they are not present in the hinge fittings arranged and designed according to the type according to US-PS 2 808 610 and DE-PS 15 59 934. However, these known hinge fittings have the disadvantage that they can only be used for windows, doors or the like in which the frame and sash are made of special profiles, the peculiarity of which is that at least the front surface of the frame and sash facing the room are flush with each other and there is a gap between their adjacent or facing peripheral edge surfaces.

Limit gap opening. So that the gap opening between the

facing peripheral edge surfaces of the sash and frame at all times to ensure that the window or the

In order to ensure that the door can be adjusted evenly on all sides, the frame joint components of the hinge fitting according to DE-GM 90 00 594 are adjustable in a direction parallel to the frame plane, using threaded elements as adjustment elements. The hinge fittings according to EP-PS 0 204 267 also use threaded elements as adjustment elements for the purpose of adjusting the position of the sash relative to the frame. However, these are each assigned to the sash joint components of the hinge fitting in such a way that they are accessible for operation with practically no hindrance when the sash is open in the turning position.

The aim of the innovation is to improve hinge fittings of the type previously known from US-PS 2 808 610, namely in such a way that at least one of the hinge eyes or bearing sleeves of the frame and/or sash hinge component that constantly protrude beyond the room-side frame face can be adjusted in a direction transverse to the common hinge axis and parallel to the locking plane of the door or window.

This task is solved by the innovation

that the mounting base of the wing joint component consists of a retaining rail mounted on the wing and a transverse to the axis

the joint eyes or bearing sleeves in the direction of the wing plane are guided longitudinally displaceable support rails,

that the support rail has the wing-side joint eye or the wing-side joint sleeve with a cross-section to its direction of displacement

directed axis position,

that the support rail and the retaining rail are held in a longitudinally adjustable connection to one another by a threaded member, 35

and that the threaded member is connected to the support rail as well as to the

retaining rail is in positive engagement and on the side of the

The sash rebate peripheral surface is accessible for its operation.

Hinge fittings of the - completely concealed - installation type previously known from US-PS 2 808 610 can thus be easily adjusted at any time in a similarly simple manner as the display devices of the other type already known from EP-PS 0.204 267.

An advantageous further development of the hinge fitting with the aforementioned features is also characterized by 15

an angle rail inserted into a stepped groove in the peripheral rebate surface at a sash corner, in particular made of strip material with a flat, rectangular cross-section,

- whereby the retaining rail of the wing joint component is fixed and secured in position on one leg,

and the other leg of which contains a cutout into which the threaded member can be releasably inserted transversely to its longitudinal axis by means of a circumferential recess located near its free end.

can be positively engaged,

while on the other hand it sits screw-adjustably in a threaded eyelet of the support rail.

The feature set according to this innovation proposal aims to enable the hinge fitting to be fitted in an arrangement similar to DE-PS 241 491 in the area of the sash and frame corners of windows, doors or the like even if other fitting elements that are necessary for the window, door or the like must be provided there. This can, for example, be a corner deflection device for a drive rod fitting, in which case, after a further

-5-

Innovation proposal: the angle rail is formed by the faceplate angle of this corner deflection device.

The innovation also includes the support rail being connected to the retaining rail in a form-fitting sliding connection via a dovetail or T-guide rail, while the retaining rail can be coupled to one leg of the angle rail transversely to its longitudinal direction using a hole/tenon plug connection and can also be screwed together.

A stable connection of the wing joint component with the angle rail and a relief of the guide rail between the support rail and the holding rail is useful if, in a further development of the innovation, the support rail has a boom extending parallel to the axis of its joint eye or bearing sleeve, which at its end has a fixing recess that grips a locking projection that protrudes from the second leg of the angle rail. The fixing recess and locking projection are designed in such a way that their mutual engagement is ensured in every possible relative displacement position of the support rail on the holding rail. It has proven to be effective if the locking projection consists of a bolt that is screwed into a threaded hole on the second leg of the angle rail.

According to the innovation, it is also beneficial to stabilize the entire hinge fitting if the joint eye of the frame joint component is angled in a roughly Z-shape away from the fastening base in front of the room-side front face of the frame and has a bearing pin for engagement in the

Joint eye or the bearing sleeve of the wing joint component.

When using the new hinge fitting as a corner bearing assembly for tilt and turn windows, it is finally important that the bearing pin has a ball head on which a ball socket is supported in the joint eye or in the bearing sleeve of the sash joint component, whereby the ball socket in the joint eye or in the bearing sleeve can be axially displaced to a limited extent by an adjusting screw or similar in order to adjust the height of the sash.

to be able to adjust relative to the frame in the direction of the hinge axis of the hinge fitting.

An embodiment of the subject of the innovation is shown in the drawing. It shows

Fig. 1 shows a longitudinal section through a hinge fitting designed as a corner bearing assembly for a tilt and turn window or a tilt and turn door,

Fig. 2 seen in the direction of arrow II of Fig. 1 and partly in section the corner bearing assembly according to Fig. 1, whereby in each case partly

a sash frame profile and a frame profile can be seen,

The drawing shows an example of a hinge fitting 1

a corner bearing assembly, as required for windows, doors, etc. with tilt and turn sashes.

This hinge fitting 1 or this corner bearing assembly consists of a frame joint component 2, a sash joint component 3 and an angle rail 4 with which the sash joint component 3 is to be connected.

The frame joint component 2 is anchored via a fastening base 5 to the rebate peripheral surface 6 of the frame 7, e.g. by means of screws 8, as can be seen in Fig. 2 of the drawing. In a similar way, the sash joint component 3 is also connected via a fastening base 9 to the rebate peripheral surface 10 of the sash 11, namely with the interposition of the angle rail 4, which is received in the usual way by a stepped profile groove 12, which adjoins the rebate peripheral surface 10 of the sash 11.

The profile groove 12 has two groove steps of different depths and widths, whereby the wide and flat groove step directly adjoins the rebate peripheral surface 10 of the sash 11, while the narrow and deep groove step only starts from the wide and flat groove step.

Usually, the profile groove 12 in the sash 11 is provided to accommodate functional elements of drive rod fittings.

The fastening base 5 of the frame joint component 2 has a flat screwing plate 13, which is supported along its entire length by an adapter piece 14 that is matched to the respective profile design of the rebate peripheral surface 6 of the frame 7 (Fig. 1 and 2).

The screwing plate 13 has, over part of its length, an approximately Z-shaped angled or cranked profile piece 15, which reaches with its crossbar 16 in front of the room-side front surface 17 of the frame 7 and is supported on it. The end leg of the Z-shaped profile piece 15, which is parallel to the screwing plate 13, forms a joint eye 18 of the frame joint component 2, on which a bearing pin 19 is seated, which is equipped with a ball head 20.

The bearing pin 19 on the joint eye 18 of the frame joint component 2 protrudes from below into a bearing hole 21 of a joint eye or a bearing sleeve 22, which protrudes from the wing joint component 3, preferably in one piece.

-8th-

A ball socket 23 is accommodated in the bearing hole 21 of the joint eye or the bearing sleeve 22 in a rotationally fixed manner but can be moved in the direction of the bearing axis 24-24, which is supported by an adjusting screw 25 which can be screwed into an internal thread 25 of the joint eye or the bearing sleeve 22.

It is particularly evident from Fig. 2 that the joint eyes or bearing sleeves 18 and 22 of the frame joint component 2 and the sash joint component 3 are always located in front of the front face 17 of the frame 7 on the inside of the room, but they engage in a receptacle of the sash overlap. The receptacle is machined out of the overlap impact surface at the rear.

The fastening base 9 of the wing joint component 3 consists of a holding rail 26 that is to be mounted fixedly to the wing and a support rail 27 that is guided longitudinally displaceably transversely to the bearing axis 24-24 of the joint eye or the bearing sleeve 22. The joint eye or the

Bearing sleeve 22 is firmly connected, preferably formed in one piece.

The retaining rail 26 has a dovetail-shaped or T-shaped profiled guide rail 28, with which a matching guide groove 29 of the support rail 27 is in a positive sliding connection. The retaining rail of the wing joint component 3 is coupled to the leg 4a of the angle rail 4 via a plug connection formed by holes 30 and pins 31, and is additionally fixed to this leg 4a by countersunk screws screwed into the thread 32 of this leg 4a, which in the process each pass through countersunk holes 33 in the retaining rail 26.

When screwing the retaining rail 26 to the leg 4a of the

Angle rail 4 allows the support rail 27 to remain engaged with the retaining rail 26 because the countersunk holes 33 correspond to openings 36 in the support rail 27, which allow the countersunk screws to be inserted.

The support rail 27 is provided near the joint eye protruding from it or the bearing sleeve 22 with a parallel to the bearing axis 24-24

extending arm 35, which is crossed by a threaded eye 36, which accommodates a threaded member 37 in a screw-adjustable manner to a limited extent. While the threaded member 37 has a head 38 with a front-side engagement 39 for an operating tool at one end, it is equipped near its other end with a circumferential recess 40, which is constantly in front of the inner surface 41 of the arm. Via the circumferential recess 40, the threaded member 37 comes into positive engagement with a cutout 42, which extends from the corner zone 4c of the angle rail 4 into its upright leg 4b. The cutout 42 has a dimension in its semicircular closed end area that is adapted to the core diameter of the threaded member 37 in the area of the circumferential recess 40. Towards the corner zone 4c, however, the cutout 42 has an extension 43, which is somewhat larger in its outline dimensions than the collar 44 that delimits the circumferential recess 40 towards the free end of the threaded member 37. This makes it possible for the threaded member 37 to be releasably but positively engaged in the cutout 42 of the leg 4b when the holding rail 26 is attached to the leg 4a of the angle rail 4, and in this way to establish an adjustment connection of the support rail 27 with the angle rail 4. The free end of the arm 35 has a fixing recess 45, with which a locking projection 46 is gripped, which protrudes from the outside of the second leg 4b of the

Angle rail 4 protrudes, as shown in Fig. 2 and 3. The

The locking projection 46 can consist of a bolt that can be screwed into a threaded hole 47 that is already located in the leg 4b of the angle rail 4. When the threaded member 37 is actuated, the support rail 27 of the wing joint part 3 is displaced relative to the angle rail 4 in the longitudinal direction of its leg 4a, whereby the distance between the inner surface 41 of the arm 35 and the outer surface of the leg 4b changes. However, over the entire adjustment range, the fixing recess 45 of the arm 35 remains in engagement with the locking projection 46 on the leg 4b, thereby ensuring that undesirable overstressing of the guide rail 28 and the guide groove 29 between the holding rail 26 and the support rail 27 is avoided.

Fig. 3 of the drawing shows, approximately in natural size, that a hinge fitting 1, for example a corner bearing assembly for tilt-and-turn windows, doors or the like, can be connected to a corner deflection device 51 for a drive rod fitting, as is usually inserted at a sash corner in the stepped profile groove 12 located on the rebate peripheral surface 10. The corner deflection device 1 serves to deflect a longitudinal movement, for example from a horizontal fitting component 52 through the drive rod 53, to a drive rod 54 of a vertical fitting component 55 running at right angles to it. The drive rods 53 and 54 are connected via coupling points 56 and 57 to drive rod connecting pieces 58 and 59 of the

Corner deflection device 51. A movement deflection

The metal band 61 which causes the corner deflection is guided in an angle-shaped deflection channel 60 in a known manner, whereby the thrust movement of a drive rod fitting is deflected from the horizontal to a vertical direction or vice versa. In the embodiment of a corner deflection device 51 shown, the metal band 61 is connected to the drive rod connecting pieces 58 and 59 by rivets 62. The fastening of the wing joint component 3 to the faceplate angle 65 of the corner deflection device 51 is effected by fastening screws 63, which find their abutment in threaded holes 64 which are identical to the threaded holes 32 of the angle rail according to Fig. 1.

Of course, a hinge fitting 1, in particular a corner bearing assembly of the type explained in detail above, can also be mounted via its wing joint component 3 on the rebate surface 10 of the wing if there is no corner deflection in the profile groove 12 there, but rather only an angle rail 4, as can be seen in Figs. 1 and 2. In this case, the angle rail can then also be profiled in such a way that it fully fills the entire cross section of the profile groove 12 and provides additional corner reinforcement there.
