Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a fitting for movably supporting a swivel element, particularly a furniture part, a door or a window, relative to a stationary support, having the features of the preamble of claim 1.

[0002] Such fittings are already known from the prior art, for example, based on the Austrian Patent Invention No. 506903 owned by the applicant. This known fitting has the disadvantage that a relatively laborious mechanism is required to be able to shift a damping device from a first damping position to a second damping position having a reduced damping performance compared to this first damping position. As a result, on the one hand, more production labor and higher production costs are incurred. On the other hand, complex mechanisms are also more prone to failure.

[0003] Furthermore, there is an increasing development to use fittings that are as invisible as possible or only slightly visible to the user in the assembled state. This is achieved, for example, by arranging the fitting parts of the fitting as completely as possible within a stationary element or a swivel element. In the case of such a fitting, it is impossible to use a prior art device to shift the damping device from a first damping position to a second damping position having a reduced damping performance compared to this first damping position due to the structural form.

[0004] The object of the present invention is to at least partially avoid the above-mentioned disadvantages of the prior art and to provide a fitting for movably supporting a swivel element, particularly a furniture part, a door or a window, relative to a stationary support, which is improved compared to the prior art, and a furniture provided with such a fitting.

[0005] These objects are solved by the features of independent claims 1 and 25.

[0006] In other words, according to the present invention, the damping device is capable of moving from a first damping position to a second damping position having reduced damping performance compared to the first damping position, the damping device is located within a first metal fitting portion, and a locking device is provided for holding the damping device in the second damping position.

[0007] According to a preferred embodiment, the damping device has an engaging element, and the locking device has a locking element, the locking element being configurable in a released position where it is separated from the engaging element and in a locked position where it is engaged with the engaging element, the locking element being movable in a first direction when moving from the released position to the locked position, the engaging element being configured to move over the locking element positioned in the locked position, the locking element being configurable in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction by the engaging element when being overtaken.

[0008] To move the damping device from a first damping position to a second damping position, it is necessary to engage the locking element with the engaging element. For this purpose, in the first step, the locking element is moved in a first direction from the released position to the locked position. Then, in the second step, the locking element may be overcome by the engaging element. In this case, as the locking element is overcome, it is moved by the engaging element in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. As a result, the locking element and the engaging element are positioned in an engaged position with each other.

[0009] This makes it easy to shift the damping device from the first damping position to the second damping position.

[0010] For fittings that are to be as inconspicuous as possible, the locking element is movable in a first direction during its movement from the unlocked position to the locked position, and the engaging element is configured to move over the locking element positioned in the locked position, starting from a first damped position, and the locking element is also movable in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction by the engaging element when it is overtaken.

[0011] This makes it possible to adjust the damping performance, including the transition of the damping device from the first damping position to the second damping position, even with such a novel fitting.

[0012] With respect to the furniture, it has been identified that the furniture comprises a swivel element, a stationary support, and at least one such fitting, wherein the swivel element is formed in the form of a movable furniture part, and the stationary support is formed in the form of a furniture cabinet.

[0013] Further advantageous embodiments of the present invention are provided in the dependent claims.

[0014] The locking device may be specified to have an operating element for operating the locking device, preferably one that can be operated without tools.

[0015] In particular, if the operating element can be operated without tools, this presents a simple possibility for the user to move the damping device from a first damping position to a second damping position. However, it is also possible that the operating element can be operated via a tool, such as a screwdriver.

[0016] In one embodiment of the present invention, the operating element may be specified to be operable by movement of the operating element in a direction orthogonal to a first direction and / or a direction orthogonal to a second direction.

[0017] This results in a user-friendly operation. Furthermore, it is easy to determine whether the operating device is being operated or not. It is also possible to operate the operating element in a different way, for example, by rotation.

[0018] It may be specified that a deflection device is provided that converts the motion of the operating element into the motion of the locking element in a first direction.

[0019] For this purpose, preferably, the steering device is formed in the form of a guide groove, and preferably, this guide groove is specified to have an angle of 30° to 55°, preferably 45°, with respect to the first direction.

[0020] This presents a simple possibility for realizing a steering device. Of course, other configurations of the steering device are also possible in this specification. In particular, the steering device may be selected according to the operating mode of the operating element.

[0021] It may be specified that the operating element is covered by either the first or second fitting portion when the fitting is in the closed position. This contributes to a visually pleasing overall appearance of the fitting, even at positions other than the closed position.

[0022] Preferably, the fitting may be specified to have a closing device that automatically moves the fitting to the closed position after a predetermined position relative to at least both fitting portions.

[0023] This ensures that the closing process is always properly carried out or completed, and that the fittings are actually closed. Furthermore, such a closing device facilitates the use of furniture or similar items equipped with such fittings.

[0024] Preferably, the closing device may be specified to have an energy accumulator, preferably a spring, and particularly preferably a compression spring. The energy accumulator can provide the force necessary to move the fitting to the closed position.

[0025] It may also be specified that the closing device has a deflecting lever, and a deflecting roller is arranged on the deflecting lever.

[0026] Preferably, it may be specified that the accumulator is configured to apply a force to the deflecting lever. Therefore, through the deflecting lever and the deflecting roller, the force provided by the accumulator can be deflected, and thereby this force can be provided at a specific position.

[0027] According to an embodiment of the present invention, it may be specified that the longitudinal extension direction of the accumulator and the longitudinal extension direction of the damping device are arranged substantially parallel to each other.

[0028] This enables a space-saving arrangement of the accumulator and the damping device. This promotes a small structural size of the fitting.

[0029] A similar statement can be made even if the closing device is arranged within the first fitting part.

[0030] The fitting may have at least one first pivoting lever and at least one second pivoting lever, and both pivoting levers are pivotally supported on the first fitting part at a first location and pivotally supported on the second fitting part at a second location, respectively.

[0031] On the one hand, this causes the two fitting parts to be pivotally connected to each other. On the other hand, a locus is defined by both pivoting levers, by which the second fitting part can be pivoted relative to the first fitting part.

[0032] Preferably, it may be specified that the first pivoting lever can have a contact section that can bring this first pivoting lever into contact with the damping device.

[0033] This represents a simple possibility for realizing the damping of the pivoting movement between the two fitting parts.

[0034] Preferably, the first swivel lever may be specified to have a control contour portion that allows the steering roller to travel.

[0035] The force provided by the energy accumulator can be applied to the first swivel lever via the steering lever, the steering roller, and the control contour section, thereby easily realizing a closing device.

[0036] Since both the contact area and the control contour are located on the first swivel lever, one of the swivel levers has a somewhat more complex shape. However, this makes the overall fitting less complex. This, in turn, leads to less production effort and lower production costs.

[0037] It may be specified that the damping device is formed in the form of a linear damper. This offers the possibility of a simple and space-saving implementation of the damping device. However, it is also possible to use a different type of damper, such as a rotary damper.

[0038] The damping device may be specified to have a travel stroke of 10 mm to 15 mm, preferably 12 mm. Such a travel stroke is, on the one hand, large enough to ensure the best damping, and on the other hand, small enough not to require excessive space.

[0039] In one embodiment of the present invention, the damping device may be specified as a spring damper, a gas pressure damper, and / or a hydraulic damper. Other damper configurations are also possible.

[0040] It may also be specified that the damping device has a housing.

[0041] Particularly preferable is that the engaging element is formed integrally with the housing. This saves the manufacturing steps and costs associated with producing a separate engaging element.

[0042] Particularly preferable, the engaging element may be specified to be formed in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped projection, which represents the simplest possibility for realizing the engaging element.

[0043] Furthermore, the engaging element may have a chamfered area or similar to facilitate overcoming the locking element.

[0044] Preferably, the locking element may be specified to be elastically formed. This allows the locking element to move in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction by pure elastic deformation when the engaging element overcomes it.

[0045] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the locking element may be characterized to have a chamfered region on at least one side, preferably both sides, from which the engaging element can overcome the locking element.

[0046] This makes it easier for the engaging element to overcome the locking element.

[0047] With respect to the furniture, it may be specified that the first metal fitting is preferably completely positioned within the support plate. This promotes a visually appealing appearance of the furniture.

[0048] Furthermore, it may be specified that the second metal fitting is preferably completely positioned within the pivot element. This promotes a visually appealing appearance of the furniture.

[0049] Particularly preferable, it may be specified that at least two fittings are provided. This ensures a particularly stable connection between the pivoting element and the stationary support.

[0050] Further details and advantages of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings, based on the description of the drawings. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[Figure 2b] This is a partial disassembled perspective view of the metal fittings. [Figure 3a] This is a plan view of the metal fitting at the first damping position.

[Figure 6c] This is a diagram showing detail A of Figure 6b. [Figure 7a] This is a plan view of the metal fitting at the second damping position. [Figure 7b] This is a plan view of the damping device at the second damping position. [Figure 7c] This is a diagram showing detail A of Figure 7b.

[0052] Figure 1 shows a perspective view of furniture 100. It can be seen that this furniture 100 has a stationary support 102 in the form of a furniture cabinet. This stationary support consists of a plurality of plates 103 arranged substantially vertically or horizontally.

[0053] In this embodiment, two fittings 1 can be recognized. The first fitting portion 2 of these fittings 1 is substantially entirely located within a horizontally oriented plate 103. The second fitting portion 3 of the fittings 1 is substantially entirely located within a pivot element 101 in the form of a furniture door as described herein.

[0054] For example, a partition 104 may be placed inside the furniture.

[0055] Figure 1 clearly shows that the metal fitting 1 in this embodiment is almost invisible, neither in its specific configuration nor its arrangement. Only the end faces of the metal fitting portions 2 and 3 are visible. This results in a visually pleasing shape for the furniture 100.

[0056] Figure 2a shows a perspective view of fitting 1, and Figure 2b shows a corresponding partial exploded view.

[0057] It can be seen that the first metal fitting portion 2 is formed from two parts. The assembly portion 2b may be inserted into a notch provided in the plate 103. The assembly portion 2b may then be fixed into the notch via a fixing device 2c.

[0058] In this embodiment, this is done by rotating the operating element of the fixing device 2c. This results in rotation of the tightening element of the fixing device 2c. As a result, the assembly portion 2b is tightened into the notch of the plate 103.

[0059] The hinge element 2a may be inserted into the assembly element 2b and releasably locked within the assembly element 2b.

[0060] It is clear that the operating element 5b of the locking device 5 is located on the end face of the fitting 1, which remains visible in the assembled state.

[0061] The swivel levers 7 and 8 are also located within the plane that substantially includes the first fitting portion 2. This also applies to the second fitting portion 3. However, it is also possible that the first fitting portion 2 and the second fitting portion 3 are located in a plane rotated relative to each other, particularly in a plane rotated 90° relative to each other.

[0062] The second metal fitting portion 3 is also equipped with a fixing device 3a that functions in essentially the same way as the fixing device 2c of the first metal fitting portion 2.

[0063] Figure 3a shows a plan view of the fitting 1 at the first damping position, Figure 3b shows a corresponding plan view of the damping device 4, and Figure 3c shows detail A of Figure 3b.

[0064] The assembly part 9b and the cover of the hinge part 2a are not shown in order to ensure visibility of the inside of the hinge part 2a.

[0065] The damping device 4 comprises a housing 4b and a piston rod 4c. The piston rod 4c is positioned on the base plate 2d of the first metal fitting portion 2, and the housing 4b may be moved to dampen along the piston rod 4c.

[0066] Damping of the motion of the housing 4b along the piston rod 4c is performed inside the housing 4b, for example, via a spring or fluid.

[0067] The contact section 7c of the first swivel lever 7 may be in contact with the housing 4b. The first swivel lever 7 is swivelably connected to the first metal fitting portion 2 at a first location 7a and swivelably connected to the second metal fitting portion 3 at a second location 7b (not shown).

[0068] The second swivel lever 8 is also swivelably connected to the first metal fitting portion 2 at the first location 8a and swivelably connected to the second metal fitting portion 3 at the second location 8b (not shown).

[0069] Based on the different configurations of the swivel levers 7 and 8, the contact section 7c is brought into contact with the housing 4b of the damper 4 after a specified closing angle between the first fitting section 2 and the second fitting section 3 (in Figure 3b, this closing angle has not yet been achieved, and therefore the contact section 7c is not yet in contact with the housing 4b).

[0070] As fitting 1 continues to close, that is, as the closing angle decreases, contact section 7c is moved toward housing 4b, which in turn moves housing 4b toward piston rod 4c. This movement is damped by damping device 4. Therefore, the closing movement is also damped.

[0071] At the first damping position, a sufficient travel stroke V of the damping element 4 is provided for damping.

[0072] In this case, it can be seen that the locking device 5 is not being operated. Therefore, the locking element 5a is not being moved in one direction to the locked position. This allows the housing 4b to move along the piston rod 4c over the entire travel stroke V without obstruction.

[0073] The first swivel lever 7 also has a control contour portion 7d. The steering roller 6c of the closing device 6 is in contact with this control contour portion 7d.

[0074] The steering roller 6c is supported by the steering lever 6b. Force is applied to this steering lever 6b by a power accumulator 6a in the form of a compression spring. As a result, the control roller 6c is pressed against the control contour 7d.

[0075] The movement of the second fitting portion 3 causes the control contour portion 7c to travel along the roller 6c. After the fitting 1 reaches a specified closing angle, the roller 6c is positioned in the section of the control contour portion 7d where the force applied to the control contour portion 7d through the deflection roller 6c causes the deflection lever 7 to rotate. This rotational movement causes the deflection lever 7 to move the second fitting portion 3 toward the closed position of the fitting 1.

[0076] Furthermore, it can be observed that the housing 4b has an engaging element 4a in the form of a protrusion.

[0077] Figure 4a shows a plan view of the fitting 1 in the first step when moving the fitting 1 from the first damping position to the second damping position, Figure 4b shows a corresponding plan view of the damping device 4, and Figure 4c shows detail A of Figure 4b.

[0078] It can be observed that the operating element 5b of the locking device 5 is being operated. By operating this operating element, the locking element 5a is moved in the first direction, and consequently, moved to the locked position.

[0079] The conversion of the motion of the operating element 5b to the motion of the locking element 5a is performed via a deflection device 5c. In this embodiment, the deflection device includes a guide groove on which the locking element 5c is movably supported.

[0080] The guide groove is positioned at a 45° angle to the direction of motion of the operating element 5b. The locking element 5a is only movable in a first direction parallel to the longitudinal direction of the locking element 5a. Therefore, the movement of the operating element 5a results in the movement of the locking element 5a in the first direction.

[0081] In this step, the locking element 5a is moved in the direction of the damping device.

[0082] Figure 5a shows a plan view of the fitting when the engaging element 4b overcomes the locking element 5a, Figure 5b shows a corresponding plan view of the damping device 4, and Figure 5c shows detail A of Figure 5b.

[0083] It can be observed that the housing 4b is moved in the direction of the piston rod 4c, and as a result, the engaging element 4a is also moved in the direction of the locking element 5a.

[0084] When the engaging element 4a overcomes the locking element 5a, it causes the locking element 5a to move in a second direction, which in this example is upward. Therefore, in this embodiment, this second direction is orthogonal to both the first direction (which is parallel to the longitudinal extension direction of the locking element) and the operating direction of the operating element 5b.

[0085] The locking element 5a may be chamfered in the region over which the engaging element 4a can overcome, thereby facilitating a corresponding overcoming. The engaging element 4a may also be chamfered at least partially, thereby facilitating overcoming.

[0086] Furthermore, the locking element 5a is formed to be at least partially elastic, which allows the engaging element 4a to easily overcome it.

[0087] Figure 6a shows a plan view of the fitting 1 in the second step when moving the fitting 1 from the first damping position to the second damping position, Figure 6b shows a corresponding plan view of the damping device 4, and Figure 6c shows detail A of Figure 6b.

[0088] It can be observed that the locking element 5a has been completely overcome by the engaging element 4a. The housing 4b is moved along the piston rod 4c over most of the travel stroke V.

[0089] Furthermore, it can be observed that the engaging element 4a is no longer engaged with the locking element 5a.

[0090] Figure 7a shows a plan view of the fitting 1 in the second step when moving the fitting 1 from the second damping position, Figure 7b shows a corresponding plan view of the damping device 4, and Figure 7c shows detail A of Figure 7b.

[0091] It can be observed that the engaging element 4a is engaged with the locking element 5a. Therefore, the travel stroke V of the housing 4b is significantly restricted. Consequently, damping of the closing movement of the fitting 1 can no longer be performed except within the restricted travel stroke V. Therefore, the damping performance is reduced compared to the first damped position.

[0092] To return the damping device 4 to the first damping position, only the operating element 5b needs to be operated. This moves the locking element back to the released position. In this case, the engaging element 4a is no longer engaged with the locking element 5a. This provides the damping device 4 with a full travel stroke V again. [Explanation of symbols]
