Description

[0001] Fitting which is designed as furniture fitting or as building fitting

[0002] The present invention relates to a fitting, which is designed as a furniture fitting or as a building fitting, for pivotally supporting a door element relative to a stationary base, comprising:

[0003] - a base fitting for attachment to the stationary base,

[0004] - a door fitting part for fastening to the door element, wherein the door fitting part is pivotally mounted relative to the base fitting part about an imaginary axis of rotation,

[0005] - at least one first articulated lever, which has a

[0006] Base axis is pivotally connected to the base fitting part,

[0007] - at least one second articulated lever, which has a

[0008] Door axis is pivotally connected to the door fitting part, wherein the first articulated lever and the second articulated lever are pivotally connected to one another via at least one central axis,

[0009] - whereby the base axis, the door axis and the central axis each run obliquely to the axis of rotation.

[0010] Furthermore, the invention relates to an arrangement with a stationary base, at least one door element pivotable relative to the stationary base and with at least one fitting of the type to be described for pivotably supporting the at least one door element relative to the stationary base.

[0011] Furthermore, the invention relates to a use of the fitting to be described, which is used to support a blunt door element or a folded door element relative to a stationary base. A fitting of the type mentioned at the outset is shown, for example, in AT 14165 Ul by the applicant. The fitting has two fitting parts for fastening to furniture parts, wherein the two fitting parts are pivotally connected to one another via an articulated lever mechanism. The articulated lever mechanism has at least two articulated levers connected to one another in an articulated manner, wherein the joint axes of the articulated levers run obliquely to an imaginary pivot axis of the fitting.

[0012] This type of fitting has the advantage that the hinge axes can be arranged very compactly relative to one another and that the fitting takes up very little space in the closed position. The space required for arranging the fitting is therefore relatively small. The compact design of the fitting also provides additional space for any drives. Despite the compact arrangement in the closed position, a large opening angle range of the fitting can be achieved, and complex kinematics can also be controlled.

[0013] A disadvantage of the state of the art is that the fitting tends to become unstable in certain open positions, so that the door element connected to the fitting lowers in an open position and can drag on the floor.

[0014] The object of the present invention is to provide an improved fitting of the type mentioned at the outset while avoiding the disadvantages discussed above.

[0015] This is achieved according to the invention by the features of claim 1. Further advantageous embodiments of the present invention are specified in the dependent claims. According to the invention, it is provided that

[0016] - the angle enclosed between the axis of rotation and the base axis is between 33° and 55°, preferably between 38° and 48°, and particularly preferably approximately 43°, and that

[0017] - the angle enclosed between the rotation axis and the door axis is between 30° and 60°, preferably between 48° and 60°, and particularly preferably approximately 50°.

[0018] Numerous calculations, simulations, and tests conducted by the applicant have shown that the above-mentioned angle ranges and angle specifications lead to a significant improvement in the stability of the fitting and to minimal sagging of a door element connected to the fitting. In particular, this can significantly reduce the risk of the door element sagging, particularly within an opening angle range between 90° and 160°, and the risk of it dragging on the floor.

[0019] Further details and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the following description of the figures.

[0024] Fig. 6a-6d show the opening process of a rebated door element connected to the fitting,

[0025] Fig . 7a-7d show the opening process of a blunt door element connected to the fitting,

[0026] Fig. 8a- 8e show a perspective view of the fitting in the fully closed position as well as the relative positions of the two

[0027] Articulated lever arrangements to each other when opening the fitting,

[0028] Fig. 9 shows schematically the arrangement of the base axis, the central axis, the door axis and the imaginary axis of rotation of the fitting in a coordinate system,

[0029] Fig. 10a, 10b show a perspective view of a piece of furniture, wherein a door element is pivotally mounted about a vertically extending axis of rotation via the fitting, as well as an enlarged detailed view thereof, Fig. 11a, 11b show the fitting according to Fig. 10a, 10b in two different perspective views.

[0030] Fig. 1 shows an arrangement 1 with a stationary base 2, wherein a door element 4 is pivotally mounted relative to the stationary base 2 via two or more fittings 3. In the figure shown, the door element 4 is pivotally mounted about a rotation axis that runs vertically in the assembled position.

[0031] The door element 4 can be a door, a furniture part movable relative to a furniture body, or even a window. At least one sealing element 5, preferably made of plastic, can be arranged on the stationary base 2, by means of which a gap formed between the stationary base 2 and the door element 4 can be sealed at least in part. The sealing element 5 ensures that the door element 4 closes quietly and that disturbing drafts are reduced.

[0032] At least one cover frame 6 can be arranged on the stationary base 2. However, this cover frame 6 can also be omitted, depending on the application.

[0033] Fig. 2a shows the frame-shaped stationary base 2 in a view from the front, wherein at least one fitting 3 for the movable mounting of the door element 4 is arranged on the stationary base 2.

[0034] The fitting 3 comprises a base fitting part 9 for fastening to the stationary base 2 and a door fitting part 10 for fastening to the door element 4, wherein the door fitting part 10 is pivotally mounted relative to the base fitting part 9 about an imaginary axis of rotation 23 (Fig. 4c).

[0035] The reference symbol "H" indicates a movement of the door fitting part 10 relative to the stationary base 2 in the vertical direction (i.e. in a direction parallel to the rotation axis 23). The reference symbol "S" indicates a movement of the door fitting part 10, starting from a measuring point located on the rotation axis 23, relative to the stationary base 2 in a lateral direction.

[0036] The view below shows the stationary base 2 in a cross-section, wherein the reference symbol "V" denotes a movement of the upper region of the door fitting part 10 relative to the stationary base 2, i.e. a movement of the upper region of the door fitting part 10, starting from a measuring point located on the rotation axis 23, in a direction pointing away from the stationary structure 2.

[0037] Fig. 2b shows a diagram of the movements (H, S, V) of the door fitting part 10 during opening according to the prior art, wherein the opening angle (a) of the door fitting part 10 is plotted in degrees on the horizontal axis and a path (s) of the door fitting part 10 is plotted in millimeters on the vertical axis.

[0038] It can be seen that the movement (H) in the vertical direction in the prior art is largely constant up to an opening angle (α) of approximately 90°, although within an opening angle between 90° and 180°, a significant movement (H) of the door fitting part 10 occurs in the vertical direction. This movement (H) in the vertical direction can lead to an undesirable grazing of a lower end of the door element 4 connectable to the door fitting part 10 or even to a blockage of the door element 4 during opening.

[0039] Fig. 2c shows a diagram of the movements (H, S, V) of the door fitting part 10 during opening according to the invention. It can be seen that all movements (H, S, V) of the door fitting part 10 relative to a measuring point arranged on the rotation axis 23 are largely constant over an opening angle range between 0° and 180°.

[0040] According to one embodiment, a lowering of the door fitting part 10 in a direction parallel to an imaginary axis of rotation 23 (Fig. 9) of the fitting 3 over an opening angle range between 0° and 180° can be less than 2 mm, preferably less than 1 mm. Fig. 3a shows the arrangement 1 according to Fig. 1 with the stationary base 2, the frame 6 and the two fittings 3 for the movable mounting of the door element 4 in a view from the rear.

[0041] The fittings 3 are each connected to the stationary base 2 via a, preferably substantially plate-shaped, mounting device 7, wherein the mounting device 7 is connected to the fitting 3 or alternatively can be detachably connected.

[0042] Fig. 3b shows the area framed in Fig. 3a in an enlarged view. The mounting device 7 has a flat contact surface 7a for contact with the stationary base 2, preferably on an outer side surface of the stationary base 2, and at least one fastening element 8 (for example at least one screw) for mounting on the stationary base 2.

[0043] The fitting 3 has a base fitting part 9 for fastening to the stationary base 2, which is designed to be partially received in a recess of the stationary base 2. The mounting device 7 is connected to the base fitting part 9 or is designed to be detachably connected to the base fitting part 9.

[0044] Fig. 4a-4d show the opening process of the fitting 3 in chronological sequences.

[0045] Fig. 4a shows the fitting 3 in a fully closed position. The base fitting part 9 has a housing 9a which can be connected to the mounting device 7 via at least one fastening device 11. The mounting device 7 has a contact surface 7a for contact with the stationary base 2. The fitting 3 further has a door fitting part 10 with a housing 10a, wherein the door fitting part 10 is pivotally connected to the base fitting part 9. The door fitting part 10 has at least one fastening device 12 by means of which the door fitting part 10 can be fastened to the door element 4.

[0046] The base fitting part 9 has an end face 13 and the door fitting part 10 has an end face 14, wherein the end faces 13, 14 can be inserted substantially flush in the stationary base 2 or in the door element 4 in an assembled state. In a closed position of the fitting 3, the two end faces 13, 14 face each other and / or are aligned substantially parallel to each other.

[0047] Fig. 4b shows the fitting 3 in a partially open position. The fitting 3 has at least one first articulated lever 15, which is mounted on the base fitting part 9 via a base axis 21 (not visible here) (Fig. 8a), the first articulated lever 15 being connected to at least one second articulated lever 16 via a central axis 17. The second articulated lever 16 is pivotally mounted on the door fitting part 10 via a door axis 19 (Fig. 8a) (not visible here).

[0048] Fig. 4c shows the fitting 3 in a further open position, wherein the first articulated lever 15 and the second articulated lever 16 are visible.

[0049] Fig. 4d shows the fitting 3 in a further open position. The first articulated lever 15 and the second articulated lever 16 form a first articulated lever arrangement 18, by means of which the base fitting part 9 and the door fitting part 10 are pivotally connected to one another. In addition, a second articulated lever arrangement 18a is provided, by means of which the base fitting part 9 and the door fitting part 10 are pivotally connected to one another. The second articulated lever arrangement 18a has a first articulated lever 15a, which is pivotally mounted on the base fitting part 9 and which is pivotally connected via a central axis 17a to a second articulated lever 16a pivotally mounted on the door fitting part 10.

[0050] According to possible embodiments, it can be provided that the base fitting part 9 and the door fitting part 10

[0051] - are only connected to each other by the two articulated lever arrangements 18, 18a, and / or

[0052] - are mirror-symmetrical to each other.

[0053] Fig . 5a-5d show the further opening process of the fitting 3 in chronological sequences .

[0054] Fig. 5a shows the fitting 3 with the base fitting part 9 and with the door fitting part 10, which can be pivoted relative to one another via the first articulated lever arrangement 18 with articulated levers 15, 16 and via the second articulated lever arrangement 18a with articulated levers 15a, 16a.

[0055] Fig. 5b shows the fitting 3 in a further open position, wherein the second articulated lever 16 is pivotally connected to the door fitting part 10 via a door axis 19. The door axis 19 is arranged at least partially, preferably substantially completely, within the housing 10a of the door fitting part 10.

[0056] Fig. 5c shows the fitting 3 in a further open position, wherein the two articulated levers 15, 16 are pivotally connected to one another via the central axis 17 and the other articulated levers 15a, 16a are pivotally connected to one another via the central axis 17a. Fig. 5d shows the fitting 3 in a fully open position. The base fitting part 9 and the door fitting part 10 can be pivoted relative to one another over an opening angle of approximately 180°. In the fully open position, the two articulated lever assemblies 18, 18a are arranged essentially parallel to one another.

[0057] The two end faces 13 , 14 are in the complete

[0058] Open position of the fitting 3 in a direction transverse to an imaginary axis of rotation 23 and / or in a depth direction of the base fitting part 9 spaced from each other.

[0059] According to possible embodiments, it can be provided that the first articulated lever 15, 15a and the second articulated lever 16, 16a

[0060] - in a fully closed position of the fitting 3 (Fig. 4a) are arranged in a substantially V-shaped manner, and / or

[0061] - in a fully open position of the fitting 3 (Fig. 5d) assume a stretched position relative to each other, and / or

[0062] - have at least one curvature .

[0063] Fig. 6a-6d show the opening process of a rebated door element 4 connected to the fitting 3, wherein the door element 4 in the closed position partially covers an end face 2a of the stationary structure 2.

[0064] The door element 4 has a rebate 20 in the form of an L-shaped edge, wherein the rebate 20 rests against the end face 2a in the closed position of the door element 4 or is spaced from the end face 2a to form a gap. The advantage of a rebated door element 4 is that the door element 4 can be reliably locked relative to the stationary base 2 by means of the sealing element 5 and that the passage of light, sound, and odors can be reduced. Of course, the door element 4 can also have a double or triple rebate 20.

[0065] Fig. 6a shows the mounting device 7, which is fastened to the stationary base 2 and on which the base fitting part 9 with the housing 9a is or can be arranged. The housing 9a of the base fitting part 9 and / or the housing 10a of the door fitting part 10 is or are designed to be received substantially entirely in a recess of the stationary base 2 and in a recess of the door element 4.

[0066] In the fully closed position of the door element 4, the base fitting part 9 and the door fitting part 10 are not visible to a person, ensuring a compact arrangement with an attractive design.

[0067] Fig. 6b and Fig. 6c show the folded door element 4 in further open positions.

[0068] Fig. 6d shows the fully open position of the folded door element 4, wherein the opening angle of the door element 4 relative to the stationary structure 2 is approximately 180°. The two articulated levers 15, 16, pivotally connected via the central axis 17, assume an extended position relative to one another.

[0069] In an open position of the fitting 3, only the two end faces 13, 14 (Fig. 5d) and the articulated levers 15, 16 are visible.

[0070] A particular feature of the fitting 3 is that, in the fully open position of the fitting 3, the two articulated levers 15, 16 have a maximum deflection, which is essentially flush with a plane 25 formed by a side surface 2d (the so-called lining board) of the stationary base 2. In this way, a maximum passage width is available without the two articulated levers 15, 16 protruding beyond the plane 25 and increasing the risk of collision with objects moving past.

[0071] Fig. 7a-7d show the opening process of a blunt door element 4 connected to the fitting 3, wherein the blunt door element 4, in the fully closed position, is aligned substantially flush with the end face 2a of the stationary base 2. This results in a flush, minimalist design, wherein a circumferential gap is formed between the door element 4 and the end face 2a of the stationary base 2.

[0072] Fig. 7a shows the door element 4 in a fully closed position relative to the stationary base 2, wherein the door element 4 and the end face 2a are aligned substantially coplanar to one another.

[0073] Fig . 7b and Fig . 7c show the blunt door element 4 in further open positions .

[0074] Fig. 7d shows the fully open position of the blunt door element 4, wherein the opening angle of the door element 4 relative to the stationary structure 2 is approximately 180°. The two articulated levers 15, 16, pivotally connected via the central axis 17, assume an extended position relative to one another.

[0075] Thus, the fitting 3 in question can be used equally for both rebated door elements 4 and for flush door elements 4, thereby massively expanding the application area of ​​the fitting 3. Figs. 8a-8e show a perspective view of the fitting 3 in the fully closed position as well as the relative positions of the two articulated lever assemblies 18, 18a to one another when opening the fitting 3.

[0076] Fig. 8a shows the fitting 3, wherein the base fitting part 9 with the housing 9a and the door fitting part 10 with the housing 10a are in a fully closed position relative to one another. The base fitting part 9 and the door fitting part 10 can be pivoted relative to one another via two articulated lever assemblies 18, 18a.

[0077] The first articulated lever arrangement 18 has two articulated levers 15, 16, which are pivotally connected to one another via a central axis 17. The first articulated lever 15 of the first articulated lever arrangement 18 is pivotally connected to the base fitting part 9 via a base axis 21, wherein the position of the base axis 21 does not change when the fitting 3 is opened and closed. The second articulated lever 16 of the first articulated lever arrangement 18 is pivotally connected to the door fitting part 10 via the door axis 19.

[0080] Door fitting part 10 is or are insertable in a recess in the stationary base 2 or in the door element 4, wherein the base axis 21 and / or the door axis 19 is arranged predominantly, preferably substantially completely, within the housing 9a, 10a.
