Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hardware hinges, in particular to a damping buffer hinge. Background Art

[0002] Hinges are widely used in furniture, and include hinge cups and connecting seats that are hinged to each other. The hinge cup is fixed to the door panel, and the connecting seat is equipped with a fixing seat fixed to the frame of the furniture. A transmission assembly is installed at the connection between the hinge cup and the connecting seat, and the transmission assembly is connected to a damper to enable the hinge cup to open and close smoothly relative to the connecting seat, and also has a buffering effect to ensure normal and stable use of the furniture.

[0003] The hinge generally uses a compression spring as an elastic part, and is positioned at the hinge of the connecting seat and the upper swing arm through a pin shaft. The buffer cylinder generally has one end pivoted in the connecting seat and the other end pivoted to the transmission assembly. The transmission assembly is pivoted on the connecting seat, and the hinge cup is driven to rotate by the rotation of the transmission assembly to realize the opening and closing of the hinge. Since the installation and matching requirements are high in precision, the production and installation structure of the hinge are more complicated and the production cost is higher. If there are errors between the components, the connection effect is poor and the transmission stability will be reduced. Therefore, it is necessary to further improve the existing hinge structure and technology. Utility Model Content

[0027] refer to Figures 1 to 10 A damping buffer hinge comprises a hinge cup 10 mounted on a door body and a connecting seat 20 mounted on a cabinet body, a transmission assembly is arranged between the hinge cup 10 and the connecting seat 20, and the transmission assembly comprises an upper swing arm 30 and a lower swing arm 40, and the ends of the upper swing arm 30 and the lower swing arm 40 are respectively hinged to the hinge cup 10 and the connecting seat 20, a cavity 101 is arranged in the hinge cup 10, and the transmission assembly is accommodated in the cavity 101 when the hinge is in a closed state, wherein a first cam 401 and a second cam 402 are arranged on the end of the lower swing arm 40 close to the connecting seat 20, a compression spring 50 and a damper 60 are arranged in the connecting seat 20, and the first cam 401 and the compression spring 402 are arranged on the lower swing arm 40. The spring 50 abuts against the second cam 402 and the damper 60; the spring 50 and the damper 60 are respectively compressed by the first cam 401 and the second cam 402 on the lower swing arm 40 to abut against each other. When the hinge is opened, the first cam 401 pushes and compresses the compression spring 50 to store energy. When the hinge is closed, the compression spring 50 releases the stored energy and pushes the lower swing arm 40 to rotate. When the lower swing arm 40 rotates, the second cam 402 presses on the damper 60, so that the damping force of the damper 60 is applied to the transmission component, thereby realizing the buffering effect of the hinge; in the damping hinge structure, this structure is more convenient to install than the previous elastic parts and dampers 60, and has lower production requirements and costs.

[0028] The first cam 401 is tilted upward, and the second cam 402 is tilted downward. It should be understood that when the transmission assembly is opening, the first cam 401 rotates along the hinge point between the lower swing arm 40 and the connecting seat 20, and approaches the compression spring 50, so that the compression spring 50 realizes compression and energy storage. At the same time, the second cam 402 moves away from the damper 60, so that the damper 60 reaches the maximum stroke. When the transmission assembly is closing, the compression spring 50 releases the stored energy and pushes the first cam 401 away, so that the lower swing arm 40 rotates. At this time, the second cam 402 pushes the damper 60, and the damper 60 provides a buffer for the second cam 402 and the lower swing arm 40, thereby slowing down the closing speed.

[0029] A first pressing sleeve 70 is arranged between the first cam 401 and the compression spring 50, and a pressing surface 4011 is arranged on the side of the first cam 401. When the hinge is in a closed state, the first pressing sleeve 70 contacts the pressing surface 4011, and a protrusion 4012 is formed at the end of the pressing surface 4011. A pit 701 is provided at the end of the first pressing sleeve 70 close to the first cam 401, and the protrusion 4012 abuts against the pit 701 when the hinge is in an open state. To be precise, when the hinge is opened, the first pressing sleeve 70 moves in a straight line under the push of the pressing surface 4011 until the protrusion 4012 abuts against the pit 701 after the hinge is fully opened, thereby realizing the positioning function of the hinge when it is opened.

[0030] A second pressing sleeve 80 is arranged between the second cam 402 and the damper 60. The end surface of the second pressing sleeve 80 close to the first cam 401 is arc-shaped. The surface of the second cam 402 is arc-shaped and matched with the end of the first cam 401. When the hinge is in the open state, the first cam 401 pushes the second pressing sleeve 80 to move in a straight line; to be precise, when the hinge is closed, the second cam 402 acts on the damper 60 through the second pressing sleeve 80, so that the damping force of the damper 60 acts on the transmission assembly, realizing the buffering function when the compression spring 50 releases the stored energy and automatically closes, thereby slowing down the closing speed.

[0031] The connecting seat 20 is provided with a first accommodating chamber 201 for linear motion of the compression spring 50 and the first pressing sleeve 70, and a second accommodating chamber 202 for linear motion of the damper 60 and the second pressing sleeve 80; wherein the rear ends of the first accommodating chamber 201 and the second accommodating chamber 202 are respectively provided with adjusting members 90, and the adjusting members 90 include a door closing speed adjusting member 90a and a damping force adjusting member 90b, the door closing speed adjusting member 90a abuts against one end of the compression spring 50 away from the first cam 401, and is used to adjust the axial position of the compression spring 50 in the first accommodating chamber 201, and the damping force adjusting member 90b abuts against one end of the damper 60 away from the second cam 402, and is used to adjust the axial position of the damper 60 in the second accommodating chamber 202.

[0032] The rear ends of the first accommodating chamber 201 and the second accommodating chamber 202 are radially penetrated with an adjustment groove 203. The adjustment member 90 at least includes a driving portion 901 and an adjustment portion 902 eccentrically arranged on the driving portion 901. The driving portion 901 is rotatably arranged in the adjustment groove 203, and the adjustment portion 902 is rotatably arranged in the first accommodating chamber 201 or the second accommodating chamber 202, so that the compression spring 50 / damper 60 acts on the adjustment portion 902. In this embodiment, by rotating the adjustment member 90 on the first accommodating chamber 201, the driving portion 901 is rotated. The speed regulating surface 901 in contact with the compression spring 50 is offset and changed. To be precise, there are 6 speed regulating surfaces, and adjacent speed regulating surfaces have arc transitions. The ends of the compression spring 50 are respectively in contact with the 6 speed regulating surfaces to achieve 6 compression strengths, thereby realizing multi-speed adjustment of the door closing speed. Similarly, the buffering force of the damper 60 is adjusted by rotating the adjustment member 90 on the second accommodating chamber 202, and the user adjusts it according to the door closing speed to prevent the door from closing too quickly and causing insufficient buffering force, or preventing the door from being closed due to excessive buffering force.

[0033] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
