Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of hinge technology, specifically a garage door hinge structure that is easy to install. Background Technology
[0002] A hinge is a mechanical device used to connect two solid objects and allow relative rotation between them. Hinges are generally composed of movable components or made of foldable materials. Hinges are commonly installed on cabinets and are mainly classified into stainless steel hinges and iron hinges according to their materials. To provide a better user experience, hydraulic hinges (also known as damping hinges) have emerged. Their characteristic is that they provide a buffer function when the cabinet door closes, minimizing the noise generated by the door colliding with the cabinet body.
[0003] A search revealed a garage door hinge structure with authorization number CN221143963U that is easy to install, comprising a hinge, wherein a mounting plate is movably connected to the left side of the hinge, and mounting grooves are provided on the top of the mounting plate and the top of the hinge. This invention enables quick installation of the hinge. First, the support rod is positioned on the garage door. The user places the mounting slot onto the support rod, allowing the limiting ring to pass through the mounting slot. Then, the user rotates the worm gear, which drives the worm wheel to rotate. The worm wheel's rotation drives the screw to rotate, which in turn moves the moving plate outwards, locking the slot onto the support rod and securing it in place. This allows for quick and easy installation of the hinge onto the garage door, replacing the existing method that requires specialized tools and personnel. However, this device is cumbersome during the installation of folding garage doors, as the connection between the folding door panel and the wheels is complicated, requiring simultaneous installation of both the folding door and the vehicle, necessitating the cooperation of multiple workers. Therefore, we propose a garage door hinge structure that is easier to install. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the above situation and to overcome the defects of the prior art, this utility model provides a garage door hinge structure that is easy to install, effectively solving the above problems.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a garage door hinge structure that is easy to install, comprising a door panel connector, an adjusting connector, and a wheel connector. The lower side of the door panel connector is connected to the upper side of the adjusting connector. Both the door panel connector and the adjusting connector are provided with mounting holes. The adjusting connector is trapezoidal in shape. The wheel connector is located on the upper side of the adjusting connector, and a connecting pipe is provided on the upper side of the wheel connector.
[0006] Preferably, the wheel connector has mounting holes on both the left and right sides, and the adjusting connector has mounting grooves on both the left and right sides.
[0007] Preferably, an auxiliary limiting block is connected to the lower side of the wheel connector, and the auxiliary limiting block is located in the mounting groove of the adjusting connector.
[0008] Preferably, the lower side of the auxiliary limiting block is provided with a placement hole, and an auxiliary limiting component is placed in the placement hole of the auxiliary limiting block.
[0009] Preferably, the auxiliary limiting component includes a bidirectional screw, and both the left and right sides of the bidirectional screw are connected to a helical tube.
[0010] Preferably, the lower side of the adjusting connector has a retrieval hole.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0012] 1. By setting the wheel connectors, door panel connectors, and adjustment connectors separately, the workers can install the door panel and rollers separately during the installation process, avoiding the troubles in the installation process and making the installation more convenient for the workers;
[0013] 2. By setting the mounting groove, the pressure on the wheels is reduced when the wheel connector becomes loose or tight due to the door panel flipping during use, thereby indirectly improving the stability of the device.
[0014] 3. By setting auxiliary limiting components, the auxiliary limiting block and wheel connector cannot be disengaged from the adjusting connector, thus improving the stability of the device. By setting bidirectional screws and solenoids, the tightness of the connection between the adjusting connector and the wheel connector can be effectively improved. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Please see Figure 1-3 A garage door hinge structure for easy installation includes a door panel connector 100, an adjusting connector 200, and a wheel connector 300. The lower side of the door panel connector 100 is movably connected to the upper side of the adjusting connector 200. A groove is provided on the door panel to match the connection between the lower side of the door panel connector 100 and the adjusting connector 200. Both the door panel connector 100 and the adjusting connector 200 have mounting holes. The adjusting connector 200 is trapezoidal in shape and has a retrieval hole on its lower side, which facilitates the removal of the adjusting connector 200 by the operator. The wheel connector 300 is located above the adjusting connector 200, and a connecting pipe 301 is provided on the upper side of the wheel connector 300. By separating the wheel connector 300 from the door panel connector 100 and the adjusting connector 200, the operator can install the door panel and the wheel separately during installation, avoiding the hassle of installation and making the installation process more convenient.
[0023] The wheel connector 300 has mounting holes on both its left and right sides, and the adjusting connector 200 has mounting grooves on both its left and right sides. These mounting grooves reduce the pressure on the wheel when it becomes loose or tight due to rotation with the door panel during use, thus indirectly improving the stability of the device. An auxiliary limiting block 310 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the wheel connector 300. The auxiliary limiting block 310 is located in the mounting groove of the adjusting connector 200. By limiting the position of the adjusting connector 200 and the wheel connector 300, the position of the auxiliary limiting block 310 is improved, enhancing the stability of the device. A placement hole is provided on the lower side of the auxiliary limiting block 310, into which a [missing information - likely a device name or designation] is placed. An auxiliary limiting component 320 is provided to prevent the auxiliary limiting block 310 and the wheel connector 300 from detaching from the adjusting connector 200, thereby improving the stability of the device. The auxiliary limiting component 320 includes a bidirectional screw 321, with a screw tube 322 connected to both sides of the bidirectional screw 321. The bidirectional screw 321 is inserted into the placement hole of the auxiliary limiting block 310. After the screw tube 322 is connected to the bidirectional screw 321, it contacts the upper side wall of the adjusting connector 200, thereby improving the tightness of the connection between the adjusting connector 200 and the wheel connector 300. By providing the bidirectional screw 321 and the screw tube 322, the tightness of the connection between the adjusting connector 200 and the wheel connector 300 can be effectively improved.
