Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of furniture hinge bracket technology, and in particular to a hinge bracket with an anti-clothes-snagging arm cover structure. Background Technology

[0002] Hinges, as a fundamental connecting component, are widely used in the assembly of furniture cabinets and doors. Their core function is to achieve a stable connection and relative rotation between the cabinet door and the cabinet body. Traditional hinges typically employ a modular design, comprising a base, hinge body, cup, and rotating assembly. The hinge body is detachably mounted on top of the base, forming a cavity structure to house the rotating assembly; the cup is mounted on the front of the hinge body via the rotating assembly to enable the opening and closing of the cabinet door. However, existing hinges have significant drawbacks in practical applications: when the cabinet contains a large amount of clothing, the clothing easily approaches or comes into contact with the rear area of ​​the hinge body. During the process of retrieving or placing clothing, clothing fibers or decorative parts can easily get caught on the protrusions, gaps, or bolts on the top side of the hinge body, making it difficult to remove clothing and even causing damage due to pulling. This problem not only affects the user experience but may also restrict the efficient use of the cabinet's internal space. Therefore, it is necessary to consider optimizing the structural design of the hinges to reduce the risk of interference with clothing. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes a hinge bracket with an anti-clothes-snagging arm cover structure.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by one embodiment of this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a hinge bracket with an anti-clothes-snagging arm cover structure, including a base and a hinge body; the hinge body is fitted with a hinge arm cover; the hinge arm cover includes an integrally formed upper baffle and a rear baffle; the upper baffle is disposed above the hinge body, and the rear baffle is disposed behind the hinge body and the base.

[0005] Optionally, side baffles are provided on both sides of the rear portion of the upper baffle; the side baffles are integrally connected with the upper baffle and the rear baffle; the side baffles are positioned on the side of the rear portion of the hinge body.

[0006] Optionally, the outer edge of the upper baffle is provided with a lower edge portion facing downward, and the lower edge portion is continuously transitioned to the side baffle; the lower edge portion can abut against the upper part of the hinge body, and the upper baffle and the hinge body are spaced apart to form a clearance space for avoiding the bolt end.

[0007] Optionally, the side baffle has an outwardly protruding step portion on its lower side; the step portion can fit against the side of the base.

[0008] Optionally, a buckle is provided below the upper baffle, and an adjustment groove is provided above the hinge body; the buckle can be engaged with the adjustment groove.

[0009] Optionally, the hinge arm cover is made of plastic.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By adding an integrally molded hinge arm cover structure, this utility model effectively solves the problem of clothing snagging caused by exposed protrusions, gaps, bolts, and other components on the rear and top sides of traditional hinge brackets. Specifically, the upper baffle completely covers the top side of the hinge body, eliminating the risk of contact between bolts and other fasteners and clothing; the rear baffle seamlessly covers the exposed structure at the back of the hinge body, forming a smooth transition surface, which greatly reduces the possibility of clothing fibers or decorative parts being snagged.

[0023] Example

[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The present invention proposes a hinge bracket with an anti-clothes-snagging arm cover structure, comprising a base 10, a hinge body 20, a cup head 30, and a rotating assembly 40; the hinge body 20 is detachably covered above the base 10 and forms a cavity structure for accommodating the rotating assembly 40; the cup head 30 is rotatably mounted on the front side of the hinge body 20 via the rotating assembly 40; the hinge body 20 is fitted with a hinge arm cover 50; the hinge arm cover 50 includes an integrally formed upper baffle 51 and a rear baffle 52; the upper baffle 51 covers the top of the hinge body 20, and the rear baffle 52 blocks the rear of the hinge body 20 and the base 10.

[0025] In this invention, the addition of an integrally formed hinge arm cover 50 effectively solves the problem of clothing snagging caused by exposed protrusions, gaps, bolts, and other components on the rear and top sides of traditional hinge brackets. Specifically, the upper baffle 51 completely covers the top side of the hinge body 20, eliminating the risk of contact between bolts and other fasteners and clothing; the rear baffle 52 seamlessly covers the exposed structure at the rear of the hinge body 20, forming a smooth transition surface and significantly reducing the possibility of clothing fibers or decorative parts being snagged.

[0026] In this embodiment, side baffles 53 are provided on both sides of the rear portion of the upper baffle 51; the side baffles 53 are integrally connected to the upper baffle 51 and the rear baffle 52; the side baffles 53 are positioned on the side of the rear portion of the hinge body 20. By adding the side baffles 53 and integrally connecting them with the upper baffle 51 and the rear baffle 52, the exposed area on the side of the rear portion of the hinge body 20 is further covered, preventing clothing from being caught on the side. The addition of the side baffles 53 enhances the overall coverage, forming a wrap-around protective structure, while the integral molding design ensures structural stability and prevents the cover from falling off due to external impact.

[0027] Furthermore, the outer edge of the upper baffle 51 is provided with a lower edge 54 facing downwards, and the lower edge 54 is continuously connected to the side baffle 53. The lower edge 54 can abut against the top of the hinge body 20, and the upper baffle 51 and the hinge body 20 are spaced apart to form a clearance space for avoiding the bolt end. By providing a downwardly extending lower edge 54 on the outer edge of the upper baffle 51 and continuously connecting it with the side baffle 53, it can abut against the top surface of the hinge body 20, ensuring that a stable clearance space is formed between the upper baffle 51 and the hinge body 20, and preventing the bolt end from being exposed. On the other hand, the smooth connection between the lower edge 54 and the side baffle 53 further reduces structural sharp edges, reduces the risk of snagging, and at the same time retains enough space for bolt adjustment operations, taking into account both protection and functionality.

[0028] In this embodiment, a protruding step 55 is provided on the lower side of the side baffle 53 facing outward; the step 55 can fit against the side of the base 10. This enhances the tightness of the fit between the hinge arm cover 50 and the base 10, preventing the cover from shaking or shifting.

[0029] In this embodiment, a buckle 56 is provided below the upper baffle 51, and an adjustment groove 21 is provided above the hinge body 20; the buckle 56 can be engaged with the adjustment groove 21. By providing a buckle 56 below the upper baffle 51 and engaging it with the adjustment groove 21 at the top of the hinge body 20, the hinge arm cover 50 can be quickly positioned and securely installed.

[0030] In this embodiment, the hinge arm cover 50 is a plastic part. Using plastic materials such as ABS to manufacture the hinge arm cover 50 ensures that the cover body has the characteristics of being lightweight, wear-resistant, and impact-resistant, and can also achieve one-piece molding of complex curved surfaces through injection molding, reducing processing difficulty and cost.

[0031] Of course, this utility model is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this utility model. All such equivalent modifications and substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
