Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of door and window equipment, and more specifically, to a hinge assembly and a shower room. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, for a door connected by an outward-opening hinge assembly, during the closing process of the door panel, the hinge assembly cannot automatically close at a small angle, and the operator needs to push the door panel by hand to make it close. Moreover, there is a situation where the hinge assembly does not close in place, resulting in poor sealing of the door after closing, thus affecting the user experience.

[0003] If the outward-opening hinge assembly is applied to the field of shower rooms, if the hinge assembly does not close in place, the door of the shower room will not close tightly. When the user takes a shower, the water in the shower room is likely to flow outside the shower room, making the shower room unable to achieve the effect of separating dry and wet areas. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] An embodiment of the utility model provides a hinge assembly and a shower room. The hinge assembly includes a first hinge seat, a second hinge seat, and a reset assembly. The second hinge seat is provided with a reset groove. The reset assembly is configured to be able to rotate relative to the second hinge seat together with the first hinge seat around a rotation axis. When the second hinge seat rotates relative to the first hinge seat to a closed position, an elastic member and a pressing member drive a reset cooperation member into the reset groove. Thus, the second hinge seat and the first hinge seat can automatically close at a small angle, and the hinge assembly closes in place and resets accurately.

[0005] The technical solution of the embodiment of the utility model is as follows:

[0006] A hinge assembly, comprising:

[0007] A first hinge seat, including a first hinge portion;

[0008] A second hinge seat, including a second hinge portion hinged to the first hinge portion. The second hinge portion is configured as a cylindrical shape coaxial with the rotation axis between the second hinge seat and the first hinge seat. A reset groove is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge portion; and

[0009] A reset assembly, configured to be able to rotate relative to the second hinge seat together with the first hinge seat around the rotation axis. The reset assembly includes:

[0010] A reset cooperation member, which abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge portion;

[0011] A pressing member, connected to the reset cooperation member and capable of sliding relative to the first hinge seat, so that the reset cooperation member can move in a direction close to and away from the rotation axis; and,

[0012] An elastic member for applying an elastic force to the pressing member so that the reset fitting member presses the second hinge portion;

[0013] Wherein, the hinge assembly is arranged such that when the second hinge seat rotates relative to the first hinge seat to the closed position, the reset fitting member enters the reset groove.

[0014] A shower room, comprising: a shower room main body, a door, and a hinge assembly as described in the above embodiment, the door is installed on the shower room main body, and the door is connected to the hinge assembly.

[0015] The technical effects of the hinge assembly of the embodiment of the present utility model are as follows:

[0016] In the hinge assembly of the embodiment of the present application, the second hinge portion of the second hinge seat is provided with a reset groove, the reset fitting member and the first hinge seat rotate together around the rotation axis, the reset assembly includes a reset fitting member, a pressing member and an elastic member, the pressing member can drive the reset fitting member to move in the direction close to and away from the rotation axis under the elastic force of the elastic member, so that the reset fitting member keeps pressing against the second hinge portion and abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge portion. Thus, when the hinge assembly rotates from the open position to the closed position, the reset fitting member can be driven by the elastic member and the pressing member to press the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge portion and enter the inside of the reset groove, thereby realizing the small-angle automatic closing action of the hinge assembly. And, in the closed position of the hinge assembly of the present application, due to the driving force of the elastic member and the pressing member on the reset fitting member, it will press against the inner wall of the reset groove, and it is difficult for the reset fitting member to get out of the inside of the reset groove, so that the hinge assembly is reset and closed in place, so that the door connected to the hinge assembly closes tightly and has good sealing performance.

[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer and more understandable, the embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in this application and the features in the embodiments may be combined arbitrarily with each other.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 1 to Figure 14 the structural schematic diagram of the hinge assembly 100 of the embodiment of the present application shown in Figure 1 , Figures 4 - 6 and Figures 9 - 10As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present application provides a hinge assembly 100, including a first hinge seat 1, a second hinge seat 2, and a reset assembly 4; the first hinge seat 1 includes a first hinge portion 1-1, and the second hinge seat 2 includes a second hinge portion 21 hinged to the first hinge portion 1-1; the second hinge portion 21 is configured as a cylindrical shape coaxial with the rotation axis 3 between the second hinge seat 1 and the first hinge seat 2, and a reset groove 211 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge portion 21; the reset assembly 4 is arranged to be able to rotate relative to the second hinge seat 2 around the rotation axis 3 together with the first hinge seat 1; the reset assembly 4 includes a reset fitting 41, a pressing member 42, and an elastic member 43; the reset fitting 41 abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge portion 21; the pressing member 42 is connected to the reset fitting 41 and can slide relative to the first hinge seat 1 so that the reset fitting 41 can move in the direction close to and away from the rotation axis 3; the elastic member 43 is used to apply an elastic force to the pressing member 42 so that the reset fitting 41 presses against the second hinge portion 21; wherein, the hinge assembly 100 is arranged such that when the second hinge seat 2 rotates relative to the first hinge seat 1 to the closed position, the reset fitting 41 enters the reset groove 211.

[0038] In the prior art, for a door connected by an outward-opening hinge assembly, during the closing process of the door, the hinge assembly cannot automatically close at a small angle, and the operator needs to push the door by hand to make it close. Moreover, there are problems that the hinge assembly cannot be closed in place and the door cannot be closed tightly. In the hinge assembly 100 of the embodiment of the present application, the second hinge portion 21 of the second hinge seat 2 is provided with a reset groove 211, the reset fitting 4 rotates around the rotation axis 3 together with the first hinge seat 1, the reset assembly 4 includes a reset fitting 41, a pressing member 42, and an elastic member 43, and the pressing member 42 can drive the reset fitting 41 to move under the elastic force of the elastic member 43, so that the reset fitting 41 moves in the direction close to and away from the rotation axis 3, so that the reset fitting 41 keeps pressing against the second hinge portion 21 and abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge portion 21. Thus, when the first hinge seat 1 and the reset assembly 4 rotate relative to the second hinge seat 2 together, when the hinge assembly 100 rotates from Figure 12 the open position shown in the figure to Figure 10 the closed position shown in the figure, the reset fitting 41 can be driven by the elastic member 43 and the pressing member 41 to press against the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge portion 21 and enter the inside of the reset groove 211, thereby realizing the small-angle automatic closing action of the hinge assembly 100. Moreover, in the Figure 10 closed position of the hinge assembly 100 of the present application, due to the driving force of the elastic member 43 and the pressing member 42 on the reset fitting 41, it will press against the inner wall of the reset groove 211, and it is difficult for the reset fitting 41 to come out of the inside of the reset groove 211, so that the hinge assembly 100 is reset and closed in place, so that the door connected to the hinge assembly 100 is closed tightly and has good sealing performance.

[0039] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, the reset fitting 41 is configured as a roller rotatably connected to the pressing member 42, and the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge portion 21 is a curved surface; the hinge assembly 100 is arranged such that when the second hinge seat 2 rotates relative to the first hinge seat 1, the roller can roll along the circumferential direction of the second hinge portion 21 on the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge portion 21.

[0040] Specifically, the reset fitting 41 is configured as a roller rotatably connected to the pressing member 42, the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge portion 21 is a curved surface, and the roller can roll along the circumferential direction of the second hinge portion 21 on the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge portion 21. This can reduce the friction between the relative movement of the reset fitting 41 and the second hinge portion 21, making the reset fitting 41 and the second hinge portion 21 not easily worn, and improving the service life of the hinge assembly 100.

[0041] It can be understood that the reset fitting 41 can also be arranged in other structural forms such as ball bearings, and a sliding connection can also be adopted between the reset fitting 41 and the second hinge portion 21. However, there are problems of large friction and large wear when the reset fitting 41 and the second hinge portion 21 adopt a sliding connection.

[0042] In the embodiment as Figure 6 shown, the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge portion 21 includes an arc-shaped curved surface 213 and a reset groove 211. The arc-shaped curved surface 213 is connected to the reset groove 211, and the opening of the reset groove 211 faces the side of the second hinge seat 2 of the hinge assembly 100. It can be understood that the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge portion 21 can also be arranged in other shapes.

[0043] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 5 and Figure 7 shown, the roller is provided with a first through hole 411 coaxially arranged with the roller, the pressing member 42 is provided with a groove 421, the roller is installed in the groove 421, and two opposite side walls of the groove 421 along the axial direction of the roller are both provided with second through holes 422.

[0044] The reset assembly 4 further includes a first pin shaft 44, and the first pin shaft 44 passes through the first through hole 411 and is inserted into the second through hole 422.

[0045] Specifically, the roller is installed in the groove 421 of the pressing member 42, and the first pin shaft 44 is arranged to pass through the first through hole 411 of the roller and be inserted into the second through holes 422 of the two opposite side walls of the groove 421. In this way, the roller can rotate relative to the pressing member 42 around the central axis of the roller. This structural design is simple, easy to process and install, and the rotational connection between the roller and the pressing member 42 is reliable.

[0046] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 6 shown, the reset groove 211 is a strip-shaped groove extending along the axial direction of the second hinge portion 21, and the inner wall of the reset groove 211 is an arc surface.

[0047] Specifically, the reset groove 211 is set as a strip-shaped groove extending along the axial direction of the second hinge portion 21 so that the roller can rollingly cooperate with the reset groove 211, and the inner wall of the reset groove 211 is an arc surface to facilitate the roller to enter and exit the reset groove 211.

[0048] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 7 shown, the pressing member 42 includes a mounting portion 423, a guiding portion 424, and a connecting portion 425. The mounting portion 423 is used for mounting the reset fitting 41. The guiding portion 424 includes an abutting portion 4241. The guiding portion 424 is further provided with a guiding hole 4242 whose extending direction is perpendicular to the rotation axis 3. The connecting portion 425 connects the mounting portion 423 and the guiding portion 424.

[0049] As Figure 9 shown, a guiding and fitting portion 1-2 is provided on the first hinge seat 1. The guiding and fitting portion 1-2 is provided with a guiding post 1-21 passing through the guiding hole 4242. The guiding and fitting portion 1-2 further includes an abutting and fitting portion 1-22. The guiding post 1-21 is connected to the abutting and fitting portion 1-22.

[0050] As Figure 10 、 Figure 12 and Figure 14 shown, one end of the elastic member 43 abuts against the abutting portion 4241, and the other end abuts against the abutting and fitting portion 1-22.

[0051] Specifically, the pressing member 42 includes a guiding hole 4242 whose extending direction is perpendicular to the rotation axis 3. The first hinge seat 1 includes a guiding post 1-21. The guiding post 1-21 passes through the guiding hole 4242. In this way, when the guiding hole 4242 and the guiding post 1-21 move relative to each other along the axis of the guiding post 1-21, the pressing member 42 can perform a sliding movement relative to the first hinge seat 1, and the sliding direction can be perpendicular to the rotation axis 3, thereby driving the reset fitting 41 to move in a direction away from and close to the rotation axis 3.

[0052] One end of the elastic member 43 abuts against the abutting portion 4241, and the other end abuts against the abutting and fitting portion 1-22. In this way, the elastic force generated by the elastic deformation of the elastic member 43 can drive the pressing member 42 to move, so that the reset fitting 41 connected to the pressing member 42 can be kept pressed against the outer wall surface of the second hinge portion 21.

[0053] For the hinge assembly 100 of the present application, the structure for limiting the movement of the pressing member 42 in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis 3 is not limited to Figure 7 andFigure 9 The structure shown. For example, in the hinge assembly 100 of the present application, a slider may also be provided on one of the pressing member 42 and the first hinge seat 1, and a sliding groove may be provided on the other, which can also achieve the effect of limiting the movement of the pressing member 42 in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis 3.

[0054] Figure 10 In the shown hinge assembly 100, the elastic member 43 is in a compressed state, and the reset fitting 41 and the elastic member 43 are located on both sides of the rotation axis 3. In the hinge assembly 100 of the present application, the connection and cooperation relationship among the reset fitting 41, the pressing member 42, the elastic member 43, and the first hinge seat 1 is not limited to Figure 10 The structural features shown. For example, the elastic member 43 of the hinge assembly 100 of the present application may also be in a stretched state, and the abutting and cooperating portion 1-22 is provided on the side of the abutting portion 4241 away from the rotation axis 3; the reset fitting 41 of the hinge assembly 100 of the present application may also be located on the same side of the rotation axis 3 as the elastic member 43, and both the reset fitting 41 and the elastic member 43 are located on the side away from the second hinge seat 2, and both the elastic member 43 and the abutting and cooperating portion 1-22 are provided on the side of the abutting portion 4241 facing away from the rotation axis 3.

[0055] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 10 shown, the reset assembly 4 further includes a set screw 45, the pressing member 42 is provided with an adjustment hole 4243 communicating with the guide hole 4242, and the set screw 45 is inserted into the adjustment hole 4243 for adjusting the gap between the guide post 1-21 and the guide hole 4242.

[0056] Specifically, the set screw 45 inserted into the adjustment hole 4243 can adjust the gap between the guide post 1-21 and the guide hole 4242. By reasonably adjusting the gap between the guide post 1-21 and the guide hole 4242 with the set screw 45, it can be ensured that the pressing member 42 moves relative to the first hinge seat 1 in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis 3, and the situation of skew and wobbling when the pressing member 42 slides relative to the first hinge seat 1 can be avoided.

[0057] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 10 , Figure 12 and Figure 14 shown, the reset fitting 41 and the elastic member 43 are respectively located on both sides of the rotation axis 3.

[0058] Specifically, the reset fitting 41 and the elastic member 43 are respectively located on both sides of the rotation axis 3, and the reset fitting 41 is provided on the side close to the second hinge seat 2, which can make the structural design of the hinge assembly 100 of the present application more compact and occupy less space.

[0059] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 10 , Figure 12 and Figure 14 shown, the elastic member 43 is in a compressed state, and the abutting and mating portion 1-22 is located between the abutting portion 4241 and the second hinge portion 21.

[0060] It further includes an anti-collision member 5, which is located between the abutting and mating portion 1-22 and the second hinge portion 21; the anti-collision member 5 is arranged to prevent the second hinge portion 21 from colliding with and wearing against the first hinge seat 1 during the rotation of the hinge assembly 100.

[0061] Optionally, the anti-collision member 5 can be made of POM material to prevent collision and wear between the second hinge portion 21 and the first hinge seat 1. The POM material has the advantages of high strength, high stiffness, good elasticity, and good anti-friction and wear resistance, which can improve the service life of the hinge assembly 100.

[0062] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 9 shown, there are multiple elastic members 43, guide holes 4242, and guide posts 1-21. The multiple guide posts 1-21 are parallel to each other and respectively pass through the corresponding guide holes 4242.

[0063] Specifically, by providing multiple elastic members 43, guide holes 4242, and guide posts 1-21, a multi-group guiding and mating structure is adopted to enable the pressing member 42 to slide relative to the first hinge seat 1, so that the translational movement of the pressing member 42 relative to the first hinge seat 1 along the direction perpendicular to the rotation axis 3 can be more stable, making the rotational movement of the hinge assembly 100 of the present application more stable and reliable.

[0064] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 5 , Figure 8 and Figure 10 shown, the hinge assembly 100 further includes a waterproof member 6, which is arranged outside the pressing member 42 and the elastic member 43 to prevent water from entering and moisture from accumulating inside the reset assembly 4.

[0065] Optionally, the waterproof member 6 can be a waterproof rubber pad. When the hinge assembly 100 is installed on the door of the shower room, the hinge assembly 100 is in a humid environment, and the waterproof member 6 can prevent water from entering and corroding and damaging the inside of the reset assembly 4.

[0066] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 9As shown, an installation notch 1-3 is provided at one end of the first hinge seat 1 close to the second hinge seat 2. The first hinge portion 1-1 includes two support portions 1-11, and the two support portions 1-11 are respectively located on opposite sides of the installation notch 1-3, and the two support portions 1-11 are arranged oppositely along the extension direction of the rotation axis 3. Installation holes 1-12 are provided on both support portions 1-11.

[0067] As Figure 6 shown, a convex portion 22 extending into the installation notch 1-3 is provided at one end of the second hinge seat 2 close to the first hinge seat 1. The second hinge portion 21 is located on the convex portion 22, and a pin hole 212 is provided on the second hinge portion 21.

[0068] As Figure 5 and Figure 10 shown, the hinge assembly 100 further includes a second pin shaft 7. The second pin shaft 7 penetrates through the pin hole 212, and both ends of the second pin shaft 7 are respectively inserted into the corresponding installation holes 1-12.

[0069] Specifically, the second pin shaft 7 is provided to penetrate through the pin hole 212 of the second hinge portion 21, and both ends of the second pin shaft 7 are respectively inserted into the installation holes 1-12 of the corresponding first hinge portion 1-1. In this way, the first hinge seat 1 can rotate around the rotation axis 3 relative to the second hinge seat 2. This structural design is simple, easy to process and assemble, and has good connection stability.

[0070] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, it further includes a gasket 71, which is sleeved outside the second pin shaft 7 and is located between the second hinge portion 21 and the support portion 1-11.

[0071] Optionally, the gasket 71 is made of stainless steel. It can prevent wear between the second pin shaft 7, the first hinge portion 1-1 and the second hinge portion 21.

[0072] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, the hinge assembly 100 further includes a first back plate 8 and a second back plate 9. The first back plate 8 and the first hinge seat 1 are arranged oppositely and are connected together by a first fastener 10. The second back plate 9 and the second hinge seat 2 are arranged oppositely and are connected together by a second fastener 11.

[0073] Specifically, a reset assembly 4 is provided between the first back plate 8 and the first hinge seat 1, and the first back plate 8 has a limiting effect on the reset assembly 4. One door can be arranged between the first back plate 8 and the first hinge seat 1, and the other door can be arranged between the second back plate 9 and the second hinge seat 2. The first fastener 10 and the second fastener 11 respectively penetrate through the door, and the first back plate 8 and the second back plate 9 have the effect of pressing the door.

[0074] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, on one side of the first hinge seat 1 facing the first back plate 8, there is a first protrusion 1-4, and on one side of the second hinge seat 2 facing the second back plate 9, there is a second protrusion 23. Threaded holes are provided in both the first protrusion 1-4 and the second protrusion 23. The first fastener 10 passes through the first back plate 8 and is connected to the threaded hole of the first protrusion 1-4, and the second fastener 11 passes through the second back plate 9 and is connected to the threaded hole of the second protrusion 23.

[0075] Specifically, the first protrusion 1-4 can limit the relative distance between the first hinge seat 1 and the first back plate 8, and the second protrusion 23 can limit the relative distance between the second hinge seat 2 and the second back plate 9. Optionally, as Figure 5 shown, the first hinge seat 1 is provided with two first protrusions 1-4 to make the connection between the first hinge seat 1 and the first back plate 8 more stable, and the second hinge seat 2 is provided with two second protrusions 23 to make the connection between the second hinge seat 2 and the second back plate 9 more stable.

[0076] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, the hinge assembly 100 further includes a plurality of expansion sleeves 12, and the plurality of expansion sleeves 12 are respectively sleeved outside the first protrusion 1-4 and the second protrusion 23.

[0077] Specifically, the plurality of expansion sleeves 12 are respectively sleeved outside the first protrusion 1-4 and the second protrusion 23. The expansion sleeve 12 can be made of POM material. In this way, when the first protrusion 1-4 and the second protrusion 23 pass through the holes of the external structure, the connection between the first protrusion 1-4 and the second protrusion 23 and the external structure can be made more tight. For example, the external structure can be a door. A door is arranged between the first hinge seat 1 and the first back plate 8, and a door is arranged between the second hinge seat 2 and the second back plate 9. The first protrusion 1-4 is arranged to pass through the hole in the thickness direction of one door, and the second protrusion 23 is arranged to pass through the hole in the thickness direction of the other door. The expansion sleeve 12 can make the connection between the first protrusion 1-4 and the second protrusion 23 and the door more tight.

[0078] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, the hinge assembly 100 further includes a first gasket 13 and a second gasket 14. At least one first gasket 13 is provided between the first back plate 8 and the first hinge seat 1, and at least one second gasket 14 is provided between the second back plate 9 and the second hinge seat 2.

[0079] Optionally, both the first gasket 13 and the second gasket 14 can be made of PE material. When a door is installed between the first back plate 8 and the first hinge seat 1, the first gasket 13 can be arranged between the first back plate 8 and the door and between the first hinge seat 1 and the door to prevent the two outer surfaces of the door from being scratched and damaged by the first back plate 8 and the first hinge seat 1. When a door is installed between the second back plate 9 and the second hinge seat 2, the second gasket 14 can be arranged between the second back plate 9 and the door and between the second hinge seat 2 and the door to prevent the two outer surfaces of the door from being scratched and damaged by the second back plate 9 and the second hinge seat 2. Multiple first gaskets 13 and multiple second gaskets 14 can be set to different thicknesses so that the hinge assembly 100 of the present application can install doors of different thicknesses.

[0080] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the first gasket 13 is provided with a notch 131 for avoiding the reset assembly 4 and the expansion sleeve 12 .

[0081] Specifically, the notch 131 has a giving way function, so as to facilitate the installation of the reset assembly 4 and the expansion sleeve 12 between the first back plate 8 and the first hinge seat 1 .

[0082] The working principle of the hinge assembly 100 of the present application is as follows: Figure 14 The fully open position shown, gradually turn to Figure 12 In the partially open position shown, the first hinge seat 1 rotates around the rotation axis 3, and the reset fitting 41 rolls along the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge part 21 in the circumferential direction. The elastic restoring force of the elastic member 43 in the compressed state has a tendency to drive the pressing member 42 to move away from the rotation axis 3, so that the reset fitting 41 is pressed against the outer peripheral wall of the second hinge part 21. When the reset fitting 41 bypasses the arc-shaped surface of the second hinge part 21 and reaches the intersection of the arc-shaped surface and the reset groove 211, the elastic restoring force of the elastic member 43 will drive the pressing member 42 and the reset fitting 41 to move toward the rotation axis 3, so that the reset fitting 41 can automatically enter the reset groove 211, and realize the small-angle automatic closing action of the hinge assembly 100. Due to the force of the elastic member 43, the hinge assembly 100 in the closed position is stable. When the reset fitting 41 is set as a roller, the hinge assembly 100 of the present application has less wear during the rotation process and a long service life.
