first embodiment

[0037] With reference to the figures, a hinge particularly for box-like or boxed-shaped bodies according to the invention is generally designated by the reference numeral 10 in a first embodiment, which is shown in FIGS. 1 to 13.

[0038] The hinge 10 is constituted by two mutually opposite rigid or semirigid flaps 11 and 12, which are suitable to be inserted and concealed in corresponding seats 13 and 14, respectively of a first containment part 15 and of a second closure part 16 of a box-like body 22.

[0039] In the exemplary embodiment described here, the box-like body 22 is a case, of the type for jewels or other similar valuables.

[0040] Each of the flaps 11 and 12 is provided with at least one engagement portion 17, 18 or 19, described in greater detail hereinafter, which is contoured so as to engage and slide tangentially on a flat longitudinal pivoting element 20.

[0041] The pivoting element 20 has a circular arc-like cross-section, so as to define the rotation axis 21 for the f...

second embodiment

[0069] In a second embodiment, shown in FIGS. 14 to 18, the hinge 110 according to the invention is again constituted by two mutually opposite rigid or semirigid flaps 111 and 112 respectively, which are suitable to be inserted and concealed in corresponding seats, a first one 13 and a second one 14 respectively, of a first containment part 115 and of a second closure part 116 of a box-like body 122.

[0070] The first flap 111 and the second flap 112 are each provided with a portion, respectively 118 and 119, which is contoured so as to engage and slides tangentially on a flat longitudinal pivoting element 120.

[0071] In a manner similar to the first embodiment described above, the pivoting element 120 has a circular arc-like transverse cross-section and defines the rotation axis 121 for the flaps 111 and 112 and for the respective associated parts 115 and 116 of the box-like body 122.

[0072] Each of the first flaps 111 and 112 is formed substantially by a single plate, laterally to w...

Abstract

A hinge for a box-shaped body, comprising two mutually opposite rigid or semirigid flaps, which are suitable to be inserted and concealed in corresponding seats respectively of a first containment part and of a second closure part of the box-shaped body. The flaps are each provided with at least one engagement portion which is contoured so as to engage and slide tangentially on a flat longitudinal pivoting element, which has a circular arc-shaped cross-section which defines the rotation axis for the flaps and for the respective associated parts of the box-shaped body.

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a hinge particularly for box-like or box-shaped bodies. [0002] The present invention also relates to a case for jewels, watches, eyeglasses, pens and the like, which has at least one hinge according to the invention. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003] Shops selling valuable articles, such as jewels, watches, eyeglasses and the like, usually provide the valuable article with a case / box of matching quality, both in aesthetic terms and in terms of strength. [0004] Currently known cases are constituted generally by a first part, predominantly intended for containment, in which the valuable item is placed, and by at least one second part, designed predominantly for closure, or lid constituted either by a single element or by two elements hinged on two mutually opposite sides of the first part. [0005] Said at least one second closure part is rigidly coupled to the first containment part by way of a hinge. [0006] The most widely used known hinges are...
