[0020] The following further specifically describes the present utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings. A hardware hinge for facilitating the positioning of hole opening on a plate, which includes a hinge cup 1 and a hinge arm 2. The hinge cup 1 and the hinge arm 2 are hinged through an upper connecting rod 3 and a lower connecting rod. The upper connecting rod 3 and the lower connecting rod swing relative to the hinge cup 1 and the hinge arm 2 to realize the opening and closing of the hinge. The hinge cup 1 includes a panel 11 and a cup body 12 provided in the middle thereof. The cup body 12 extends downward to form a receiving cavity 13. When the hinge is closed, the upper connecting rod 3 and the lower connecting rod retract into the receiving cavity 13. A positioning platform 4 is provided on the outer surface of the cup body 12. The distance between the outer end face 14 of the panel 11 and the positioning platform 4 is set equal to the distance A between the outer circumference of the hole 6 and the edge of the plate 7. A center scale line 5 parallel to and intersecting with the center of the cup body 12 is further provided on the upper end face of the panel 11.

[0021] In one embodiment: The positioning platform 4 is arranged parallel to the outer end face 14 of the panel 11.

[0022] In one embodiment: The main body of the receiving cavity 13 is cylindrical, and the positioning platform 4 is tangent to the main body of the receiving cavity 13.

[0023] In one embodiment: The main body of the receiving cavity 13 is rectangular, and the positioning platform 4 is located at the front end of the main body of the receiving cavity 13.

[0024] Working principle: The present utility model relates to a hardware hinge for facilitating the positioning of hole opening on a plate, which specifically includes components such as a hinge cup 1, a hinge arm 2, an upper connecting rod 3, a lower connecting rod 4, a panel 11, a cup body 12, a receiving cavity 13, a positioning platform 4, a center scale line 5 and an outer end face 14.

[0025] Among them, the hinge cup 1 is composed of a panel 11 and a cup body 12 provided in the middle thereof. The cup body 12 extends downward to form a receiving cavity 13 for accommodating the retraction of the upper connecting rod 3 and the lower connecting rod 4 when the hinge is closed.

[0026] Among them, the hinge arm 2 and the hinge cup are hinged through the upper connecting rod 3 and the lower connecting rod 4 to realize the opening and closing action of the hinge.

[0027] Among them, the positioning platform 4 is arranged on the outer surface of the cup body 12 as an auxiliary structure for punching positioning.

[0028] Among them, the center scale line 5 is arranged on the upper end face of the panel 11, parallel to and intersecting with the center of the cup body 12, and is used for auxiliary positioning and alignment.

[0029] Among them, it should be emphasized that when the manufacturer produces this hinge, the outer end face 14 is designed according to the design parameters so that the distance between it and the positioning platform 4 is equal to the distance between the outer circumference of the opening 6 and the edge of the plate 7, so as to accurately position.

[0030] During installation, first, the hinge cup 1 is abutted against the predetermined installation position of the plate 7. The positioning platform 4 on the hinge cup 1 maintains a preset distance A from the outer end face 14 of the panel 11 through its specific geometric position, and this distance A is equal to the distance between the outer circumference of the opening 6 and the edge of the plate. The positioning platform 4 abuts against the side wall of the plate to ensure the accurate relative position between the hinge cup 1 and the edge of the plate. And the positioning platform 4 is integrally flat. After abutting against the plate, it can ensure that the outer end face of the panel is parallel to the edge of the plate, and ensure that the plate is perpendicular to the hinge after installation.

[0031] After the hinge is positioned, the installer draws a straight line at the outer end face 14 of the panel 11 based on the positioning platform 4, and this straight line is the edge line of the plate opening. Subsequently, referring to the center scale line 5 provided on the panel 11, a second line is drawn on the upper end face of the panel. The intersection point of the center scale line 5 and the edge line is the outermost edge position of the opening.

[0032] According to the positioning result of the line drawing, the installer uses a hole opener to drill holes. The specific operation steps are as follows:

[0033] 1. Determine the center position: Utilize the center scale line 5 to accurately position the center of the hole opener on the center scale line to ensure the symmetry and accuracy of the hole opening.

[0034] 2. Position the hole opening edge: Adjust the hole opener so that its outer circle intersects the previously drawn edge line to ensure that the distance between the outer circumference of the hole opening and the edge of the plate remains consistent.

[0035] 3. Execute hole drilling: After accurate positioning, perform the hole drilling operation to ensure the accuracy and consistency of the hole position.

[0036] After the hole drilling is completed, the hinge cup can be placed into the opening 6 to complete the installation.

[0037] Compared with the traditional technology, the preset distance A between the positioning platform 4 and the outer end face 14 of the panel 11 in this case makes the distance between the hole drilling position and the edge of the plate always remain consistent, eliminating the error caused by manual measurement. At the same time, the setting of the center scale line 5 provides an intuitive alignment reference to ensure the accuracy of the hole drilling position. By the positioning platform 4 abutting against the side wall of the plate, the position of the hinge cup 1 is further stabilized to ensure the accurate delineation of the hole drilling edge line.

[0038] Meanwhile, by integrating the positioning platform 4 and the central scale line 5, installers do not need to perform cumbersome manual measurement and marking steps. They only need to follow the line marking and positioning method to quickly determine the drilling positions. This significantly shortens the installation time, is especially suitable for mass production environments, and improves the overall installation efficiency.

[0039] The integrated positioning structure reduces the manual operation steps. Installers do not need to rely on manual measurement and adjustment for a long time, reducing the operation complexity and labor intensity. At the same time, the central scale line 5 provides an intuitive reference, further simplifying the operation process and reducing the possibility of operation errors.

[0040] In summary, the hardware hinge for facilitating the positioning of plate hole opening of the present utility model realizes an efficient, accurate, and convenient installation process through its unique structural design and functional configuration, significantly improving the installation efficiency and installation accuracy of the hardware hinge. Therefore, it can be widely promoted and used.
