AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing door hinges face challenges in manufacturing complexity and functional limitations, particularly in achieving smooth, backlash-free, and accurate three-dimensional adjustments.

Method used

The door hinge design incorporates a screw element supported at both ends in a groove along the first horizontal direction within the receiving space, with a tool holder accessible through an elongated adjustment opening, and an eccentric arrangement with radial support at both ends, allowing for precise adjustments along multiple axes with minimal play.

Benefits of technology

This design simplifies manufacturing, reduces wear, and ensures smooth, accurate, and backlash-free adjustments in three dimensions, enhancing the hinge's functional properties and stability.

Abstract

The invention relates to a door hinge comprising a first hinge part (1) and a second hinge part (2), which are pivotably connected to each other about a vertical hinge pivot axis (3), and a receiving part (9) associated with the second hinge part (2), wherein the second hinge part (2) is adjustably arranged with a retaining section (7) in a receiving space (8) of the receiving part (9) and extends out of the receiving space (8) in the direction of a hinge roller section (6) along a first horizontal direction (x). A screw means (15) is provided for adjustment along a second horizontal direction (y), by means of which the second hinge part (2) can be pivoted relative to the receiving part (9) with respect to a pivot axis. According to the invention, the screw means (15) is supported on an inner side of the receiving space (8).The adjustment along the first horizontal direction x is made with an eccentric arrangement which includes a pivot pin (24) supported radially at its two ends opposite the receiving part (9).
