Detailed Implementation

[0025] 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.

[0026] like Figure 1-5 As shown:

[0027] An improved door hinge structure includes a connecting shaft 104;

[0028] A first hinge seat 101 and a second hinge seat 102 are respectively sleeved on the connecting shaft 104;

[0029] Multiple sets of connecting bolts 103 are fixedly installed on one side of both the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102.

[0030] Bearing seats 105 are installed on the surface of the connecting shaft 104 at the hinge sleeves of the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102. A sleeve 106 is fixedly installed on the outer rotating surface of the bearing seat 105, and the length of the sleeve 106 is greater than the length of the bearing seat 105.

[0031] A connector 2 is installed between the connecting shaft 104 and the housing 106. The connector 2 is used to connect and lock the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102 to the corresponding housing 106 respectively.

[0032] The connector 2 includes a symmetrically arranged card seat 204 on the housing 106. The card seat 204 is composed of a U-shaped seat and a conical block. The surface of the housing 106 is provided with a moving hole that matches the U-shaped seat. A spring 207 is fixedly installed between the U-shaped seat and the housing 106.

[0033] A frustoconical sleeve 203 is fitted on the outside of the connecting shaft 104 near the sleeve 106. A threaded pin 201 is provided inside the connecting shaft 104. The bottom end of the connecting shaft 104 is sealed and the top end is open. A round hole is opened at the bottom of the connecting shaft 104. One end of the threaded pin 201 passes through the round hole at the bottom end of the connecting shaft 104 and is threadedly connected to the nut 202 at the bottom end of the connecting shaft 104. The frustoconical sleeve 203 is fixedly connected by a straight rod and the threaded pin 201. The inner walls of the hinge sleeves of the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102 are provided with locking grooves 205 that are adapted to the card seat 204.

[0034] A cap plate is fixed to the top of the threaded pin 201 to seal the open end of the connecting shaft 104;

[0035] The threaded pin 201 has symmetrically arranged slots on its surface. When the threaded pin 201 drives the frustum sleeve 203 to move up and down through the straight rod, the straight rod moves within the slots on the connecting shaft 104.

[0036] One end of the card holder 204 is provided with an installation groove, and a ball bearing 206 is installed in the installation groove. The ball bearing 206 rolls in the installation groove at one end of the card holder 204.

[0037] A push rod 208 is provided below the housing 106. The push rod 208 is fixedly connected to the threaded pin 201. The push rod 208 can move within the slot opened in the threaded pin 201.

[0038] In this embodiment: the door hinge has an improved structure, and in use, the hinge sleeves of the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102 are fitted onto the connecting shaft 104.

[0039] Both the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102 are equipped with connecting bolts 103. The connecting bolts 103 on the first hinge seat 101 pass through the mounting holes of the door frame and are connected with nuts. At the same time, the connecting bolts 103 on the second hinge seat 102 pass through the mounting holes of the door and are connected with nuts, thereby realizing the hinge function of the door.

[0040] Before the first hinge seat 101 and the connecting bolt 103 are fitted, the threaded pin 201 is pulled up and the connecting shaft 104 is held by hand. The threaded pin 201 then drives the push rod 208 to move up. When the push rod 208 contacts the corresponding sleeve 106, the resulting squeezing force can effectively reduce the rotation of the sleeve 106 on the bearing seat 105, thereby facilitating the temporary locking of the retainer 204 on the sleeve 106.

[0041] When the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102 are inserted, and when the connecting shaft 104 is matched with the second hinge seat 102 and the connecting bolt 103, the locking slot 204 corresponds to the locking groove 205 opened on the inner wall of the hinge sleeve of the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102. Then, hold the connecting shaft 104 and push the threaded pin 201 down so that the threaded pin 201 passes through the round hole at the bottom of the connecting shaft 104 and is screwed and locked with the nut 202 at the bottom of the connecting shaft 104.

[0042] like Figure 4-5 As shown: When the threaded pin 201 moves down, it slides in the slot through the straight rod and drives the frustum sleeve 203 to move down synchronously. The frustum sleeve 203 has a frustum structure design. As the frustum sleeve 203 moves down, it presses the card seat 204. At this time, the card seat 204 presses the spring 207, causing the card seat 204 to move laterally and insert into the locking groove 205, thereby completing the connection, limiting and locking of the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102 with the corresponding sleeve 106.

[0043] When the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102 rotate, the retainer 204 drives the housing 106 to rotate. The housing 106 rotates through the bearing seat 105, which can reduce friction to a certain extent. At the same time, a ball bearing 206 is provided at one end of the retainer 204. When the housing 106 rotates, the retainer 204 rotates together. At this time, the ball bearing 206 at one end of the retainer 204 can slide on the surface of the frustum sleeve 203, thereby reducing the friction between the retainer 204 and the frustum sleeve 203. Although the frustum sleeve 203 squeezes the retainer 204, the retainer 204 still rotates more smoothly.

[0044] The card holder 204 is composed of a U-shaped seat and a conical block. The design of the conical block makes the diameter of one end smaller than the diameter of the locking groove 205, which makes it easier for the card holder 204 to be better inserted into the locking groove 205.

[0045] When disassembling the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102, the nut 202 is disengaged from the threaded pin 201, and the threaded pin 201 is pulled up. At this time, the driving cone sleeve 203 releases the pressure on the retaining seat 204, and the spring 207 in the compressed state rebounds, driving the retaining seat 204 to disengage from the corresponding first hinge seat 101 and second hinge seat 102. The first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102 can then be pulled out to complete the disassembly.

[0046] This solution, with the cooperation of bearing seat 105, sleeve 106 and connector 2, effectively reduces the coefficient of friction and wear, thereby significantly improving the service life of the hinge and the smoothness of the door opening and closing. Moreover, the connector 2 makes subsequent disassembly and assembly more convenient compared to interference fit installation, meeting actual use needs and avoiding the risk of material fatigue or damage, thus ensuring the stability and reliability of the hinge.

[0047] The working principle and usage process of this utility model: The door hinge has an improved structure. In use, the hinge sleeves of the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102 are fitted onto the connecting shaft 104. Before the first hinge seat 101 and the connecting bolt 103 are fitted, the threaded pin 201 is pulled upwards while the connecting shaft 104 is held. The threaded pin 201 then drives the push rod 208 upwards. When the push rod 208 contacts the corresponding housing 106, the resulting pressure temporarily locks the retaining seat 204 on the housing 106. When the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102... After insertion, when the connecting shaft 104 corresponds and fits with the second hinge seat 102 and the connecting bolt 103, the locking groove 205 of the locking sleeve of the retaining seat 204 corresponds to the locking groove 205 of the hinge sleeve of the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102. Then, hold the connecting shaft 104 and push the threaded pin 201 down, so that the threaded pin 201 passes through the round hole at the bottom of the connecting shaft 104 and is screwed and locked with the nut 202 at the bottom of the connecting shaft 104. At the same time as the threaded pin 201 moves down, the straight rod slides in the strip-shaped opening, and drives the frustum sleeve 203 to move down synchronously. The device features a frustum-shaped structure. As the frustum sleeve 203 moves downward, it compresses the retaining seat 204. This compresses the retaining seat 204 against the spring 207, causing it to move laterally and engage with the locking groove 205. This completes the connection and locking of both the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102 with their corresponding housings 106. One end of the retaining seat 204 is equipped with a ball bearing 206. As the housing 106 rotates, the retaining seat 204 rotates simultaneously. The ball bearing 206 at one end of the retaining seat 204 can slide on the surface of the frustum sleeve 203, thereby reducing the risk of jamming. The friction between seat 204 and frustoconical sleeve 203 causes the seat 204 to rotate more smoothly, even though the frustoconical sleeve 203 presses against the seat 204. When disassembling the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102, the nut 202 is disengaged from the threaded pin 201, and the threaded pin 201 is pulled up. At this time, the frustoconical sleeve 203 is released from pressing on the seat 204, and the spring 207 in the compressed state rebounds, driving the seat 204 to disengage from the corresponding first hinge seat 101 and second hinge seat 102. The first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 102 can then be pulled out, completing the disassembly.

[0048] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.
