[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the silent hinge with buffer closure:

[0022] 1. When the device is in use, the connecting hinge plate drives the docking parts to move, which is transmitted to the limiting connecting frame through the first and second connecting parts, and finally drives the buffer telescopic rod to work. The buffer spring and damping structure installed inside the buffer telescopic rod effectively slow down the closing speed of the door and window components, avoiding damage to the door, window and surrounding structure caused by the impact force generated by rapid closing.

[0023] 2. Furthermore, the shaft diameter of the second-section connector is smaller than that of the first-section connector, and it moves within the space formed by the hinge frame and the protective cover, effectively ensuring smooth and reasonable relative movement between the components.

[0024] 3. An auxiliary damping block inside the device contacts the surface of a connecting piece, effectively reducing friction and impact noise between the connecting hinge plate and the connecting piece during rotation.

[0032] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0033] Please see Figures 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a buffer-closing silent hinge, including a hinge frame 1, a protective cover 2, a buffer telescopic rod 3, a connecting sealing cover 4, a limiting connecting frame 5, a two-section connecting piece 6, a one-section connecting piece 7, an auxiliary damping block 8, a connecting hinge plate 9, a docking piece 10, a sound-absorbing sponge 11, a limiting damping block 12, and an auxiliary connecting plate 13.

[0034] Among them, the hinge frame 1 is set as a U-shaped metal frame, the upper opening of the hinge frame 1 is equipped with a protective cover 2, and a buffer telescopic rod 3 is installed inside the hinge frame 1. The hinge frame 1, the protective cover 2 and the buffer telescopic rod 3 constitute the main structure of the hinge.

[0035] A U-shaped groove is provided on one end of the hinge frame 1, and a connecting piece 10 is installed in the groove of the hinge frame 1. The other end of the connecting piece 10 is rotatably connected to the connecting hinge plate 9. The connecting hinge plate 9 is a T-shaped plate structure. The connecting piece 10 is connected to the hinge frame 1 by a short screw. A silent damping is provided at the connection between the connecting piece 10 and the connecting hinge plate 9. An auxiliary damping block 8 is provided in the groove of the connecting hinge plate 9 near the hinge frame 1. The auxiliary damping block 8 is in contact with the surface of a connecting piece 7. An auxiliary connecting plate 13 is rotatably connected to one side of the bottom end of the hinge frame 1 by a shaft. A connecting thread is provided in the auxiliary connecting plate 13. Airfoil connecting plates are provided on both sides of the hinge frame 1. A limit damping block 12 is installed in the hinge frame 1. The surface of the limit damping block 12 abuts against the surface of the buffer telescopic rod 3. A protruding structure connected to the hinge frame 1 is provided on the outer wall of the buffer telescopic rod 3. The buffer telescopic rod 3 has a built-in buffer spring and damping medium.

[0036] Referring to the attached diagrams in the instruction manual Figures 1-6As shown, when the device is in use, the hinge can be installed and fixed on corresponding furniture, doors, windows, and other components through the connecting threads in the auxiliary connecting plate 13, which is rotatably connected to the wing-shaped connecting plates on both sides of the hinge frame 1 and the shaft on one side of the bottom. Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the auxiliary connecting plate 13 can rotate within a certain angle range to adapt to different installation requirements;

[0037] As the doors and windows are opened, the connecting hinge plate 9 rotates, causing the docking piece 10 to move. During this process, the docking piece 10 is connected to a first connecting piece 7 via a shaft, causing the first connecting piece 7 to rotate. The first connecting piece 7 drives the second connecting piece 6, which is rotatably connected to it, to move. The rotation of the second connecting piece 6 is centered on the shaft of the first connecting piece 7. The limiting connecting frame 5 is connected to the connecting sealing cover 4 to transmit the movement of the second connecting piece 6. Since the connecting sealing cover 4 is installed at the output end of the buffer telescopic rod 3, it drives the buffer telescopic rod 3 to work.

[0038] The buffer telescopic rod 3 generates a reverse force by utilizing the built-in buffer spring and damping medium, which slows down the closing speed of the door and window components and achieves a buffering effect. During this process, the limiting damping block 12 installed in the hinge frame 1 abuts against the surface of the buffer telescopic rod 3, further damping and limiting the movement of the buffer telescopic rod 3 and optimizing the buffering performance.

[0039] A shaft is provided inside a first-section connector 7, which passes through the hinge plate 9 and the docking part 10. One side of the first-section connector 7 is rotatably connected to the second-section connector 6. One end of the second-section connector 6 is provided with a limiting connecting frame 5. The other end of the limiting connecting frame 5 is connected to the connecting sealing cover 4. The connecting sealing cover 4 is installed at the output end of the buffer telescopic rod 3. The two ends of the limiting connecting frame 5 have a height difference, and the height difference between the two ends of the limiting connecting frame 5 is consistent with the height difference between the connecting sealing cover 4 and the second-section connector 6. The limiting connecting frame 5 passes through the sound-absorbing sponge 11, and the sound-absorbing sponge 11 is installed on the inner wall of the hinge frame 1 and the protective cover 2. The shaft diameter of the second-section connector 6 is smaller than the shaft diameter of the first-section connector 7, and the second-section connector 6 moves within the space formed by the hinge frame 1 and the protective cover 2.

[0040] Referring to the attached diagrams in the instruction manual Figures 1-6 As shown, the auxiliary damping block 8 in the groove of the connecting hinge plate 9 contacts the surface of a connecting piece 7. During rotation, the auxiliary damping block 8 reduces the friction and impact noise between the connecting hinge plate 9 and the connecting piece 7. The silent damping provided at the connection between the docking piece 10 and the connecting hinge plate 9 can also reduce the noise generated in this part during rotation. The sound-absorbing sponge 11 penetrated by the limiting connecting frame 5 can absorb the noise generated by the hinge during movement. It works together from multiple aspects to achieve a silent effect.

[0041] Although the two ends of the limiting connecting frame 5 have a height difference, this height difference is consistent with the height difference between the connecting sealing cover 4 and the two-section connecting piece 6. This allows the limiting connecting frame 5 to limit the movement of the connecting sealing cover 4 and the two-section connecting piece 6 through its own structure and cooperation with other components when the door and window components are closed or opened to a certain extent. This ensures that the door and window components are in the appropriate opening and closing position, while avoiding damage to the hinge due to excessive movement. The two-section connecting piece 6 moves within the space formed by the hinge frame 1 and the protective cover 2, and its shaft diameter is smaller than that of the shaft diameter of the first-section connecting piece 7. This design helps to ensure that the relative movement between the components is smooth and within a reasonable range. Combined with the limiting connecting frame 5 and other structures, this makes the hinge work more stable and reliable.

[0042] Working principle: When using this silent hinge with buffer closure, when the component to be closed drives the connecting hinge plate 9 to rotate, the connecting hinge plate 9 pushes the docking part 10 connected to it to move. At this time, the docking part 10 causes a section of the connecting part 7 to rotate through the shaft, and the section of the connecting part 7 drives the second section of the connecting part 6 connected to it to move. As the second section of the connecting part 6 rotates, the connecting sealing cover 4 is connected, which drives the buffer telescopic rod 3 installed in the hinge frame 1 to work. The buffer telescopic rod 3 uses the built-in buffer spring and damping medium to generate a reverse force, which slows down the closing speed of the component and achieves a buffering effect. At the same time, the limiting damping block 12 in the hinge frame 1 abuts against the surface of the buffer telescopic rod 3, further limiting the movement speed of the buffer telescopic rod 3 and optimizing the buffering performance.

[0043] During use, the auxiliary damping block 8 contacts the surface of a connecting piece 7. When the two move relative to each other, the auxiliary damping block 8 can absorb and buffer the vibration generated by rotation, reducing friction and impact noise. The silent damping set at the connection between the docking piece 10 and the connecting hinge plate 9 can also effectively reduce the noise generated by rotation at this point. At the same time, the sound-absorbing sponge 11 installed on the inner wall of the hinge frame 1 and the protective cover 2 will absorb the noise generated and propagated when the hinge components move, converting the noise energy into other forms, thereby achieving a silent effect and increasing the overall practicality.

[0044] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
