Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] A hinge is generally used to connect two objects and allow the two objects to rotate relative to each other. The existing hinge generally consists of a core shaft (also called a rotating shaft), and two hinge pieces with protective sleeves sleeved on the core shaft, and damping oil is added between the core shaft and the protective sleeve.

[0003] However, for an existing hinge, which includes a core shaft, a first hinge piece, a second hinge piece, a first shaft sleeve connected to the first hinge piece and sleeved on the core shaft, a second shaft sleeve connected to the second hinge piece and sleeved on the core shaft with a gap from the first shaft sleeve, and a bearing made of a self-lubricating material arranged in the gap. The bearing includes a first connecting piece, a second connecting piece and a connecting sleeve. The first connecting piece includes a connecting seat and a connecting ring. The connecting ring is sleeved between the first shaft sleeve and the core shaft. The connecting seat is provided with a clamping groove. The second connecting piece is inserted into the clamping groove and can rotate relative to the first connecting piece. One end of the connecting sleeve is sleeved between the second connecting piece and the core shaft, and the other end is sleeved between the second shaft sleeve and the core shaft. The bearing in the hinge provided by the utility model can effectively improve the smoothness of the rotation between the first hinge piece and the second hinge piece, and has a better lubricating effect while ensuring the service life of the hinge. However, this hinge only relies on the sliding friction between the lubricating bearing itself and the surfaces of the shaft sleeves of the first hinge piece and the second hinge piece to improve the smoothness of the rotation between the first hinge piece and the second hinge piece. And the first connecting piece includes a connecting seat and a connecting ring. The connecting ring is sleeved between the first shaft sleeve and the core shaft. Since the core shaft rotates, it often drives the connecting ring to rotate. Therefore, during the rotation of the hinge, the connecting seat generates friction with the second connecting piece and the outer side of the first shaft sleeve respectively, and at the same time, the connecting ring generates friction with the inner wall of the first shaft sleeve. After long-term use and wear, the wear rate of the first connecting piece is high and the service life is short, which easily causes the lubricating bearing to deform or get stuck due to wear, or the doors and windows to be quickly opened and closed due to the disappearance of the damping effect, affecting the user experience. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] Based on the above problems, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a hinge.

[0005] In view of the above problems, the following technical solutions are provided: A hinge, including a core shaft, a first hinge piece and a second hinge piece sleeved on the core shaft. The first hinge piece includes a first bushing for installing the core shaft. The first bushing includes a first installation cavity. Two first protective sleeves in interference fit with the first installation cavity are arranged in the first installation cavity. The second hinge piece includes a second bushing for installing the core shaft. There is a clearance between both sides of the first bushing and the second bushing. Rotating bearings sleeved outside the core shaft are respectively arranged in the clearances on both sides of the first bushing. The rotating bearing includes a housing, a rotating member and a fixing member. The fixing member includes an installation base and an installation convex portion. The rotating member is sleeved outside the installation convex portion. The installation base is provided with an annular groove corresponding to one end of the rotating member. One side of the rotating member corresponding to the installation base is provided with an annular engaging portion adapted to the annular groove. The thickness of the rotating member and the fixing member in the inserted state is greater than the depth of the inner cavity of the housing. The housing abuts against the second bushing. The rotating member and the fixing member rotate relatively as the first hinge piece or the second hinge piece rotates.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, compared with the existing hinge that only improves the smoothness of rotation between the first hinge piece and the second hinge piece through bearings, in the present utility model, the rotating member and the first protective sleeve are separately arranged, and the two do not interact with each other, reducing the wear on the rotating member, and at the same time, the assembly is more simple and fast; the thickness of the rotating member and the fixing member in the inserted state is greater than the depth of the inner cavity of the housing, that is, the rotating member protrudes outside the housing and abuts against the first bushing, avoiding the friction between the housing and the first bushing; at the same time, the rotating member is sleeved outside the installation convex portion, and the rotating member does not rub against the core shaft, prolonging the service life.

[0007] The present utility model is further provided that: A storage oil cavity is formed by the clearance between the annular engaging portion and the annular groove. The inner diameter of the rotating member is greater than the outer diameter of the installation convex portion, and the outer diameter of the rotating member is less than the outer diameter of the installation base.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the lubricating oil is arranged in the storage oil cavity, making the friction between the annular engaging portion and the annular groove smaller; the inner diameter of the rotating member is greater than the outer diameter of the installation convex portion, and the two are arranged with a clearance, reducing the friction between the rotating member and the fixing member; the outer diameter of the rotating member is less than the outer diameter of the installation base, reducing the friction between the rotating member and the housing, prolonging the service life.

[0009] The present utility model is further provided that: The fixing member includes an installation channel adapted to the core shaft, and one or more oil storage grooves are arranged on the inner wall of the installation channel.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the oil storage grooves store the lubricating oil, reducing the wear between the fixing member and the core shaft, and prolonging the service life.

[0011] The present utility model is further configured such that: the total length of the two first protective sleeves is adapted to the length of the first installation cavity, a first positioning recess is provided on one side of the first installation cavity, and a first positioning protrusion is provided at the position of the first protective sleeve corresponding to the first positioning recess.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the total length of the two first protective sleeves is adapted to the length of the first installation cavity. Compared with the existing technology that only relies on the frictional contact of the lubricated bearing surface, in the present utility model, not only does the rotating bearing play a role in radial friction, but also the circumferential friction between the first protective sleeve and the mandrel is increased, greatly increasing the contact surface, achieving the dispersion and balance of force, making its rotation more stable, with a better sound insulation effect, a better damping effect, and an extended service life. Compared with the existing hinge, its lubricating sleeve rotates along with the mandrel. During actual use, that is, relative rotation occurs between the lubricating sleeve and the inner wall of the bushing, generating friction. In the solution of the present utility model, through the cooperation of the first positioning protrusion and the first positioning recess, the first protective sleeve is limited and clamped with the first installation cavity, preventing the first protective sleeve from rotating along with the mandrel, that is, relative rotation between the mandrel and the inner diameter wall of the first protective sleeve. And the inner diameter wall of the first protective sleeve has the function of wear resistance and lubrication. Therefore, due to the change of the relative rotation object, the sound insulation effect is better, and at the same time, the service life of the entire hinge can be extended.

[0013] The present utility model is further configured such that: the second bushing includes a second installation cavity, a second positioning recess is provided on one side of the second installation cavity, a second protective sleeve that is in interference fit with the first bushing is provided at one end of the second installation cavity corresponding to the first bushing, and a second positioning protrusion is provided at the position of the second protective sleeve corresponding to the second positioning recess.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the second protective sleeve is limited and clamped with the second installation cavity, preventing the second protective sleeve from rotating along with the mandrel, that is, relative rotation between the mandrel and the inner diameter wall of the second protective sleeve. And the inner diameter wall of the second protective sleeve has the function of wear resistance and lubrication. Therefore, due to the change of the relative rotation object, the sound insulation effect is better, and at the same time, the service life of the entire hinge can be extended.

[0015] The present utility model is further configured such that: the other end of the second installation cavity relative to the second protective sleeve is the outer end, an installation clamping sleeve is provided at the outer end, a connection clamping portion is provided at one end of the installation clamping sleeve corresponding to the second installation cavity, positioning clamping teeth are provided on the outer periphery of the connection clamping portion, and the connection clamping portion is inserted into the second installation cavity and fixedly connected to the second bushing.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, compared with the existing hinge that uses a stepped limiting groove and screws for limiting, the technical solution of the present utility model uses plugging and interference fit to achieve connection, which is fast and convenient for assembly, has high stability, and positioning clamping teeth are provided on the outer periphery of the connection clamping portion, further strengthening the stability of the fixed connection.
