[0036] The present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0037] Refer to Figures 1 - 17 , this damping device includes a housing 1 and a damping mechanism C disposed inside the housing 1. The damping mechanism C includes a first damping component a and a second damping component b. The end of the second damping component b is rotatably installed at the end of the first damping component a to form a piston body. The piston body divides the inner cavity of the housing 1 into a first oil chamber 2 and a second oil chamber 3. A first through hole 4 communicating with the first oil chamber 2 is provided on the second damping component b, and a second through hole 60 communicating with the second oil chamber 3 is provided on the first damping component a. An intermediate flow channel is provided between the first damping component a and the second damping component b. The first through hole 4 communicates with the second through hole 60 through the intermediate flow channel. When the first damping component a and the second damping component b rotate relative to each other, the length of the intermediate flow channel is adjustable, thereby changing the flow rate of the damping oil and the magnitude of the resistance. The greater the length of the intermediate flow channel, the smaller the flow rate of the damping oil and the greater the damping force. The smaller the length of the intermediate flow channel, the greater the flow rate of the damping oil and the smaller the damping force.

[0038] The telescopic movement of the damping mechanism C is within the housing 1. A first sealing ring 6 and a diversion groove 52 communicating with the first oil chamber 2 are provided between the piston body and the housing 1. An oil passage groove 7 communicating with the second oil chamber 3 is provided on the inner side of the housing 1. When the damping mechanism C extends, the diversion groove 52 is not communicated with the oil passage groove 7. When the damping mechanism C contracts, the diversion groove 52 is communicated with the oil passage groove 7. When the position of the first sealing ring 6 is higher than the position of the oil passage groove 7, the diversion groove 52 is not communicated with the oil passage groove 7. At this time, there is resistance when the damping mechanism C moves downward and contracts, that is, the damping device maintains a certain resistance to achieve slow closing of the hinge when closing the door. When the position of the first sealing ring 6 is not higher than the position of the oil passage groove 7, the diversion groove 52 is communicated with the oil passage groove 7. At this time, the resistance becomes very small when the damping mechanism C moves downward and contracts, and the damping device has basically no resistance, so that there is no resistance when the hinge closes to the end to achieve rapid closing and locking of the door.

A acting part 53 for rotating the housing 1 is provided at the lower end of the housing 1. When the housing 1 rotates, it drives the first damping component a to rotate relative to the second damping component b. The acting part 53 is a hexagonal hole. Insert the hexagonal wrench into the hexagonal hole to rotate the housing 1. Since the insertion hole 10 and the first piston rod 8 are non-circular, the housing 1 can drive the first piston rod 8 and the first piston 9 to rotate when it rotates.

[0040] Alternatively, the first damping component a includes a first piston rod 8 and a first piston 9.

[0048] A connecting block 45 is sleeved on the upper end of the second piston rod 11. A buckle 46 is arranged on the connecting block 45, and a buckle hole 47 is arranged at the lower end of the movable shaft 21.

[0050] It further includes a first sleeve 24 and a second sleeve 25. A first mounting hole 26 is arranged on the first blade 18, and second mounting holes 27 and third mounting holes 28 which are distributed up and down are arranged on the second blade 19.

The upper end of the second sleeve 25 is movably connected with the first mounting hole 26 (by insertion), and the lower end is in interference fit with the third mounting hole 28 by insertion; the cam assembly is installed in the first mounting hole 26 and is located between the first sleeve 24 and the second sleeve 25. The cam 20 is in interference fit with the first mounting hole 26. A rotation prevention tooth 29 is arranged at one end of the movable shaft 21, and a mating tooth 30 is arranged on the inner side of the first sleeve 24. The rotation prevention tooth 29 and the mating tooth 30 are axially slidably matched with each other, so that the first sleeve 24 drives the movable shaft 21 to rotate.

[0051] A first knurling pattern 57 which is in interference fit with the first mounting hole 26 is arranged on the outer side of the cam 20.

A second pressure bearing 49 is arranged between the cam 20 and the second sleeve 25. When the cam 20 is pressed, it may move downward. By the second cover 34 pressing against the second sleeve 25, the second sleeve 25 pressing against the second pressure bearing 49, the cam 20 will not move downward and does not affect the rotation of the leaf assembly.

[0053] It further includes a second elastic member 31 and a first adjusting member 33. The second elastic member 31 is arranged inside the first sleeve 24.

Through the adjustment of the closing force and the damping force, it is applicable to a large range of door weights and is more convenient for installation and adjustment. When the hinge assembly rotates forward (opens the door), the movable shaft 21 moves upward and compresses and stores energy in the second elastic member 31, and pulls out the damping mechanism C. When the hinge assembly rotates backward (closes the door), the second elastic member 31 expands and releases energy, and the movable shaft 21 drives the damping mechanism C to contract downward. The second elastic member 31 is a spring, and the second elastic member 31 and the damping device are of a split structure and can be detachably replaced.

[0054] It further includes a first cover 32, a second cover 34 and a second adjusting member 35.

A hexagonal wrench is passed through the first adjusting hole 50 and the second adjusting hole 51 in sequence and then sleeved into the hexagonal hole to rotate the housing 1 to adjust the length of the intermediate flow path between the first through hole 4 and the second through hole 60.

[0055] It further includes a first elastic member 16 and a cover body 17. The cover body 17 is fixed to the other end of the housing 1. One end of the second damping assembly b telescopically moves through the cover body 17 and then extends out of the housing 1. The first elastic member 16 is a spring.

[0056] The first elastic member 16 is arranged on the damping mechanism C and acts between the damping mechanism C (the first piston 9) and the housing 1. The first elastic member 16 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the first piston rod 8. Or, the first elastic member 16 is arranged on the damping mechanism C and acts between the movable shaft 21 and the cover body 17. The first elastic member 16 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the second piston rod 11.

[0057] When the movable shaft 21 drives the damping mechanism C to extend and move, the first elastic member 16 expands and releases energy. When the movable shaft 21 drives the damping mechanism C to contract and move, the first elastic member 16 compresses and stores energy.

[0058] The working principle of the buffer hinge:

[0059] When the door is opened between 0 - 90°, the first vane 18 drives the cam 20 to rotate, so that the movable shaft 21 moves upward, compresses the second elastic member 31 in the second vane 19, increases the elastic force of the second elastic member 31, and under the elastic force of the first elastic member 16 in the damping device, the damping mechanism C follows and extends. When the door is opened between 90 - 150°, the movable shaft 21 remains stationary, and the damping mechanism C remains in place. When the door is opened between 150 - 170°, the movable shaft 21 moves upward, and under the elastic force of the first elastic member 16 in the damping device, the damping mechanism C follows and extends. When closing the door, the movable shaft 21 moves downward under the action of the second elastic member 31 in the second vane 19, so that the cam 20 rotates, and the movable shaft 21 pushes the damping mechanism C to move downward and contract, realizing the process of automatically closing the door slowly - keeping stopped - automatically closing the door slowly.
