DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0032] like Figure 1-Figure 2 , is a schematic diagram of a buffer shower room provided by an embodiment of the present invention, which can be used in a home shower space. The buffer shower room of this embodiment includes a movable door panel 41, a fixed door panel 42, a buffer hinge, and a sealing strip 50, and the movable door panel 41 is rotatably connected to the fixed door panel 42 via a buffer hinge, wherein the movable door panel 41 and the fixed door panel 42 can be made of glass or other waterproof materials (such as aluminum alloy, etc.). The buffer hinge includes a first hinge 10 and a second hinge 20, wherein the first hinge 10 can be fixed to the movable door panel, and the second hinge 20 can be fixed to the fixed door panel, thereby allowing the movable door panel to rotate relative to the fixed door panel to realize the opening and closing of the movable door panel.

[0033] Similar to the existing closed door buffer hinge, the buffer hinge further includes a spring seat 31, a rotating shaft 32, a hydraulic buffer 33, an elastic component and a fixing component, etc. Figure 3-8 shown.

[0034] The spring seat 31 is machined from a hard material such as metal and includes an axial hole 311, a first accommodating chamber, and a second accommodating chamber. The centerline of the axial hole 311 is arranged along a first direction, while the centerlines of the first and second accommodating chambers are arranged along a second direction. The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction, and the first and second accommodating chambers are each in communication with the axial hole 311. For example, the first and second accommodating chambers extend from the rotating shaft hole 311 to the rear end of the spring seat 31, respectively, and each forms a corresponding opening at the rear end of the spring seat 31. The rotating shaft 32 includes a buffer section 321 and an abutting section 322, which are axially distributed along the rotating shaft 32. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the first direction specifically refers to the vertical direction of the buffer hinge after it is installed on the movable and fixed door panels, and the second direction refers to the horizontal direction of the buffer hinge after it is installed on the movable and fixed door panels.

[0035] The first hinge 10 has a clearance area 13 that opens toward the second hinge 20. Correspondingly, the movable door panel 41 has a clearance notch corresponding to the clearance area 31. The rear end of the spring seat 31 is fixed to the second hinge 20, and the front end of the spring seat 31 is embedded in the clearance area 13 of the first hinge 10. The rotating shaft 32 is rotatably connected to the spring seat 31 by inserting a buffer section 321 and an abutting section 322 into the shaft hole, with both ends secured to the first hinge 10 via fixing assemblies. This means that the rotating shaft 32 cannot rotate relative to the first hinge 10, while the spring seat 31 can rotate relative to the rotating shaft 32 (and the first hinge 10), thereby allowing the first hinge 10 to rotate relative to the second hinge 20. After the rotating shaft 32 is inserted into the shaft hole 311 of the spring seat 31, the buffer section 321 of the rotating shaft 32 faces the first accommodating cavity within the spring seat 31, while the abutting section 322 of the rotating shaft 32 faces the second accommodating cavity within the spring seat 31.

[0036] The elastic component is installed in the first accommodating cavity of the spring seat 31. For example, the elastic component can be inserted into the first accommodating cavity from the opening at the tail end of the spring seat 31, and the head end of the elastic component abuts against the abutting section 322 of the rotating shaft 32 in the shaft hole 311. Therefore, when the spring seat 31 rotates relative to the rotating shaft 32, the head end of the elastic component and the surface of the abutting section 322 generate sliding friction, and the friction force slows down the rotation speed of the first hinge 10 relative to the second hinge 20, thereby making a certain resistance when the movable door panel rotates relative to the fixed door panel, thereby preventing the movable door panel from opening and closing too smoothly, resulting in the opening and closing angle being difficult to control, or opening and closing in the wind.

[0037] The sealing strip 50 is made of a polymer material with a certain elasticity, and includes a first clamping strip 51, a second clamping strip 52, a connecting strip 53 and a seal 54, wherein the first clamping strip 51 and the second clamping strip 52 are respectively connected to the first side surface of the connecting strip 53, and the seal 54 is connected to the second side surface of the connecting strip 54. For example, the cross-section of the sealing strip 50 can be H-shaped.

[0038] The sealing strip 50 is attached to the edge of the fixed door panel 42 adjacent to the movable door panel 41 and passes through the second hinge 20. Outside the second hinge 20, the first clamping strip 51 and the second clamping strip 52 are respectively attached to the two surfaces of the fixed door panel 42, the connecting strip 53 is attached to the end surface of the fixed door panel 42, and the sealing strip 54 extends and overlaps the surface of the movable door panel 41. Inside the second hinge 20, the first clamping strip 51 and the second clamping strip 52 are also attached to the two surfaces of the fixed door panel 42, the connecting strip 53 is attached to the end surface of the fixed door panel 42 and faces the end surface of the rear end of the spring seat 31, and the sealing strip 54 extends and overlaps one surface of the rear end of the spring seat 31.

[0039] In this manner, the sealing strip 50 can be assembled without cutting, thereby simplifying the assembly process. Furthermore, since the sealing strip 50 passes through the second hinge 20 and the seal 53 overlaps the spring seat 31, the sealing performance at the buffer hinge is greatly improved without affecting the opening and closing of the movable door panel 41.

[0040] In one embodiment of the present invention, the buffer section 321 of the rotating shaft 32 includes a protruding tongue 325 having a triangular cross section, such as Figure 9 As shown, the hydraulic buffer 33 has a strip-shaped protrusion 333 on its front end, and the cross-section of the strip-shaped protrusion 333 is an isosceles trapezoid. The hydraulic buffer 33 is installed in the second accommodating cavity with its front end facing the shaft hole 311, for example, and can be inserted into the second accommodating cavity through the opening at the bottom end of the spring seat 31.

[0041] As is well known to those skilled in the art, the hydraulic buffer 33 comprises a piston sleeve 331 and a piston rod 332, and the piston sleeve 331 is filled with hydraulic oil. When either the piston sleeve 331 or the piston rod 332 is pushed (the other is fixed), the hydraulic buffer 33 is slowly compressed. When the shaft 32 rotates along with the first hinge 10 until the tongue 325 abuts against the top edge of the strip-shaped protrusion 333, as shown in FIG. Figure 10 As shown in (c), the strip protrusion 333 prevents the shaft 32 from continuing to rotate. At the same time, the hydraulic buffer 33 is slowly compressed under the push of the tongue 325. At the same time, the shaft 32 and the first hinge 10 also rotate slowly, that is, the speed at which the first hinge 10 reaches the zero position is slowed down; when the tongue 325 slides over the top edge of the strip protrusion 333, it is released. Since the top of the strip protrusion 333 is a flat surface, the rotation of the shaft 32 is no longer hindered, and the first hinge 10 can be accelerated (relative to when the tongue 325 and the top edge of the strip protrusion 333 collide) to return to zero.

[0042] That is, when the movable door panel fixed to the first hinge 10 is in the process of being fully opened to being fully closed, the tongue 325 on the rotating shaft 32 is no longer in contact with the piston sleeve 331 of the hydraulic buffer 33. Figure 10 As shown in (a), it gradually abuts against the piston sleeve 331 (for example, when the movable door panel rotates 45 degrees), as shown in FIG. Figure 10 As shown in (b), at this time, the tongue 325 contacts the end surface of the front end of the piston sleeve 331 and pushes the hydraulic buffer 33 to start compression, thereby forming a resistance to the rotation of the tongue 325, so that the rotation speed of the movable door plate is relatively slowed down (because the compression speed of the hydraulic buffer 33 is relatively fast in the initial stage of compression, and the shape of the side of the tongue 325 does not reduce the rotation speed of the movable door plate much); when the front end of the tongue 325 contacts the top edge line of the strip-shaped protrusion 333, as shown in FIG. Figure 10As shown in (c), at this time, the compression stroke of the hydraulic buffer 33 is close to the end, which forms a large compression resistance. At the same time, the side of the tongue 325 is close to a straight line, which greatly reduces the rotation speed of the movable door panel. After the end of the tongue 325 passes over the top edge of the strip-shaped protrusion 333, the tongue 325 is no longer blocked and will quickly rotate to the zero position under the action of inertia. Figure 10 As shown in (d), during this process, since the reset speed of the hydraulic buffer 33 is relatively slow, it will basically not affect the rotation of the rotating shaft 32, that is, it will not affect the zero return speed of the movable door panel.

[0043] Compared with setting a ridge with a triangular cross section on the front end face of the hydraulic buffer 33, the above structure can quickly return the movable door panel to zero after the door closing buffer, thereby achieving door closing buffering without causing the door closing speed to be too slow.

[0044] In one embodiment of the present invention, the maximum compression stroke of the hydraulic buffer 33 is 6.5-7 mm, while the top surface of the strip-shaped protrusion 333 protrudes from the front end of the hydraulic buffer 33 by 0.75-0.85 mm. Compared to conventional hydraulic buffers with a maximum compression stroke of approximately 5 mm, this structure reduces the slowdown in the closing speed of the movable door panel during the initial closing process, further preventing excessively slow closing speeds.

[0045] In one embodiment of the present invention, the front end surface of the hydraulic buffer 33 (i.e., the front end surface of the piston sleeve 331) is circular, the center of the bottom surface of the strip-shaped protrusion 333 coincides with a diameter of the front end surface of the hydraulic buffer 33, the width of the strip-shaped protrusion 333 and the bottom surface is 2.4-2.6 mm, and the angle between the side surface of the strip-shaped protrusion 333 and the front end surface of the hydraulic buffer 33 is 76-82°. This arrangement ensures that when the movable door panel rotates to an angle of approximately 20° with the fixed door panel, the front end of the tongue 325 contacts the top edge of the strip-shaped protrusion 333, effectively preventing finger pinching or damage caused by rapid closing of the movable door panel. Furthermore, when the movable door panel rotates to an angle of approximately 15° with the fixed door panel, inertia allows the panel to quickly return to zero. Because the door closing speed is slow when the movable door panel rotates from 20° to 15°, most of the kinetic energy of the movable door panel is absorbed, so hands will not be pinched or injured when the movable door panel returns to zero.

[0046] like Figure 9As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the buffer section 321 of the rotating shaft 32 comprises a circumferential surface 3211, two connecting flat surfaces 3212, and a wedge surface 3213 (the wedge surface 3213 is formed by two intersecting flat surfaces). The centers of the circumferential surface 3211 and the wedge surface 3213 are 180° apart. The two connecting flat surfaces 3212 are respectively connected between the circumferential surface 3211 and the wedge surface 3213, and the wedge surface 3213 forms the two surfaces of the tongue 325. This structure not only facilitates the smooth rotation of the rotating shaft 32 during the rotation of the movable door panel, but also facilitates the tongue 325 to compress the hydraulic buffer 33 according to a predetermined program, thereby achieving the fast, slow, and fast closing of the movable door panel.

[0047] Specifically, the central angle of the circumferential surface 3211 is 55-59°, the central angle of the wedge surface 3213 is 90-100°, and the included angle of the wedge surface 3213 is 83-87°. Furthermore, a transition arc may be provided between the wedge surface 3213 and the connecting plane 3212 to prevent damage to the tongue 325 from colliding with the hydraulic buffer 33.

[0048] like Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the rotating shaft 32 includes two fixed sections 324, and the two fixed sections 324 are respectively located at the two axial ends of the rotating shaft 32. A plurality of axial teeth are formed on the outer surface of each fixed section 324, and the plurality of axial teeth are evenly distributed along the circumference of the fixed section 324.

[0049] Correspondingly, the first hinge 10 includes a first thick plate 11 and a first clamping plate 12. The first thick plate 11 and the first clamping plate 12 can be locked together by screws 14, thereby clamping and fixing the movable door panel. The inner side of the first thick plate 11 has two first arcuate grooves located on either side of the clearance position 13. The fixing assembly includes two locking blocks 361, each having a second arcuate groove. The two locking blocks 361 are respectively locked and fixed to the inner side of the first thick plate 11 by locking screws 362, with the second arcuate groove of the locking blocks 361 opposing the first arcuate groove. The two fixing sections 324 of the rotating shaft 32 are respectively locked between the first and second arcuate grooves.

[0050] The first clip has two through-holes 121, which correspond to locking screws 362 for securing two locking blocks 361. After the buffer hinge is installed on the movable and fixed door panels, the locking screws 362 can be loosened by inserting a locking tool into the through-holes 121. The movable door panel can then be rotated, causing the shaft 32 to rotate relative to the first hinge. This allows the door closing buffer angle to be adjusted (i.e., the angle at which the strip-shaped protrusion 333 on the hydraulic buffer 33 contacts the tongue 325 on the shaft 32). Once the angle is adjusted, the locking screws 362 can be tightened to complete the adjustment.

[0051] In addition, in order to enable the first thick plate 11 and the first clamping plate 12 to stably clamp the movable door panel, the first hinge 10 further includes a plurality of elastic gaskets 15 disposed between the first thick plate 11 and the first clamping plate 12 .

[0052] In order to make the rotation of the rotating shaft 32 and the spring seat 31 relatively smooth, Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the rotating shaft 32 further includes two cylindrical sections 323, which are respectively located inside the two fixed sections 324. That is, the buffer section 321 and the abutment section 322 are located between the two cylindrical sections 323. The buffer hinge also includes two bearings 35, with the inner rings of the two bearings 35 respectively fixed to the two cylindrical sections 323 of the rotating shaft 32, and the outer rings of the two bearings 35 respectively fixed to the spring seat 31 (that is, fixed to the inner wall of the shaft hole 311). In addition, to prevent the bearings 35 from sliding, a gasket 38 can be added to the outside of the bearings 35.

[0053] In one embodiment of the present invention, the elastic component includes a compression spring 341 and an adjusting member, and when the elastic component is installed in the first accommodating chamber, the adjusting member abuts against the abutting section 322 of the rotating shaft 32 and the friction force between the adjusting member and the abutting section 322 of the rotating shaft 32 is adjusted by adjusting the compression amount of the compression spring 341, thereby adjusting the rotation speed of the movable door panel relative to the fixed door panel.

[0054] Specifically, the adjustment member includes a sleeve 342, an adjustment screw, and a top shaft 343. The top shaft 343 and compression spring 341 are inserted into the sleeve 342 from the rear end of the sleeve 342, with the compression spring 341 being sleeved onto the top shaft 343. The adjustment screw is inserted into the sleeve 342 from the front end and threadedly connected to the sleeve 342. The rear end of the adjustment screw abuts the top end of the top shaft 343. The adjustment screw rotates relative to the sleeve 342, pushing the top shaft 343 and adjusting the compression of the compression spring 341. The abutment section 322 of the rotating shaft 32 has a radial through-hole 326, and the spring seat 31 has an adjustment hole. When the movable door panel is fully opened (e.g., the angle between the movable door panel and the fixed door panel is 90°), the adjustment hole, radial through-hole 326, and adjustment screw are coaxial.

[0055] In one embodiment of the present invention, the second hinge 20 includes a second thick plate 21 and a second clamping plate 22 that are interlocked and secured together by screws 24, thereby clamping and securing the door panel. The inner side of the second thick plate 21 includes a fixing block 211, and the spring seat 31 is locked and secured to the second hinge 20 via screws 23 that pass through the fixing block 211. The tail end of the hydraulic buffer 33 and the tail end of the elastic component (i.e., the tail end of the compression spring) respectively abut against the fixing block 211. The connecting strip 53 of the sealing strip 50 faces the side of the fixing block 211 facing away from the spring seat 31, and the outer sides of the first clamping strip 51 and the second clamping strip 52 respectively abut against the inner sides of the second thick plate 21 and the second clamping plate 22. In particular, the fixing block 211 is located near the side of the second thick plate 21 adjacent to the first hinge 20, thereby increasing the clamping dimension of the door panel and improving the strength of the clamping and securing of the second hinge 20 to the door panel.

[0056] In addition, in order to enable the second thick piece 21 and the second clamping piece 22 to stably clamp and fix the door panel, the second hinge 20 further includes a plurality of elastic gaskets 25 disposed between the second thick piece 21 and the second clamping piece 22 .
