HINGE' Application filed March 16, 1926. Serial No. 95,065.
This invention relates to hinge control attachment for hinge butts particularlyof the parliament type adapted for use with swinging closures, such as doors, windows and the like, and one of the ob ects of the invention is to provide an improved device of this adjusted to any position and to be heldat' its angle ofadj ustmentand then released.
Another .ObjBCtOf tllB'lIlVGIltlOnlS to pro.- vide a tension attachment for hinges having means for readily adjusting the-tension of thesame. v
To the attainment of these ends, and the accomplishment of other new and useful objects as will appear, the invention .consists in the features of novelty in substantially the construction, combination andarrangement of the several partshereinafter more fully described and claimed and-shown in the accompanying drawing illustrating the invention and in which Fig. 1 is an inside elevation of a hinge partly in vertical section and illustrating the application of the invention thereto;
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional-detail on line 22 of Fig. 1 and looking downwardly;
Fig. 3 is a disassembled view of the hingeand control attachment;
Fig. a is a vertical section on Fig. 1; I
Fig. is a view in section showinga modified form of the attachment;
Fig; 6 is a detailin horizontal and plan as seen on the line 6-6 of Fig. 5;
Fig. 7 is a detail section as seen on line 77 of Fig. 6.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, the hinge leaves 1 and 2 have bearings 3, 4 and 5, the bearing 5 being between the bearings 3 and 4 and a hinge pin 6 extends through the bearings 3, 4 and 5 having a head 7 and a screw threaded end 8.
This type of hinge is known as a parliament butt and is adapted more particularly for connection to French and casement windows and it is for the purpose of holding the window in different adjusted positions;
In the accomplishment of this object we line H of provide a pair of circular disks 9 and 10, preferably struck out of a relatively thin sheet of resilient metal, the said disks being formed with peripherially disposed arms 11 and1 2 extending in opposed directions, the
longitudinal axes ofwhichare at one side of" the axesof the respective disks 9 and and at opposite sides thereof.
During the stamping operation, to form the disks and arms, central openings13 are tormed.-;Likewise, the disk 10 is pressed outwardly to form a series of spaced apart concentrically arranged circular beads 14L on.
its upper surface a'djacentthe outer peripheraledge thereof. Likewise, disk; 9 resultantof a similar stamping operation is rormed witha series of concentrically arranged spaced circular. sockets 15.
Arms ll and 12 are of different lengths,-
the arm 11 on the disk 9 being relatively longer and the a'r1n12 ofv disk 10' and said arms adjacent theireouter ends are formed with pairs of vertically depending flanges 16 and 17 constituting yokes adapted to set astride the hinge leaves'to'cause the washers and'hinge' leaves to rotate together. Owing to the arm 11 of disk 9 being longer than arm 12 of dis'klO, the flanges of arm 11 extend belyondthe flanges of the other arm" permitting the hinge leaves to fold more closely together.
.The; disks are adapted for connection to the'butt, by first assembling the two in superimposed relation, the disk 9 carrying the sockets 15 being disposed above the disk 10 carrying the beads. 14, so'that the beads will seat withinthe said sockets. The hinge pin 6is inserted through the central openings 13 of the disks and through the'knuckles 3f, 4 and'o ofthehingeleaves. V I i The flanges 16 and 17 are pressed downwardly uponthe upper edges of the hinge leaves and by reason of their resiliency will closely clutch the leaves as before mentioned. I A coil spring 20 encircles the upper part of hinge pin 6 between the head '7 and the upper disk 9 and a nut 21 when adjusted on the lower threaded end 8 of the hinge pin serves to compress the spring 20 to vary the degree of tension exerted thereby upon the upper disk 9. The degree of tension upon the disks is controlled by the adjustment of the nut 21 and when the proper friction is obtained it will be manifest that when the window is moved about its pivot, exemplified by the hinge butts with respect to a casing, the knuckles 3 and 4 will be rotated about the hinge pin 6 and the spring will tension the upper disk 9 into association with the lower disk 10, so that the beads will be held in the recess sockets thereabove.
The arm 11 of disk 9 as heretofore stated, is relatively longer than the arm 12 of disk 10 to provide for clearance when the window is swung on the hinge butts and per mit the flanges 16 to project beyond the flanges 17 when thehinge leavesare closed upon each other.
With this construction it will be manifest that when the closure or window is opened, the tension between the parts will maintain the same in adjusted position by reason of the beads seating in the sockets in which.
ed end of the hinge pin 6 and a lock nut 24 is then screwed thereagainst for locking nut 21 in adjusted position.
A shallow cap similar to cap 22 may be inserted upon the lower end of the hinge pin 6 to cover the nuts 21 and 24.
It is to be understood that the manner of carrying the invention into eiiect is "herein specifically set forth to enable those skilled in the art to make and use the same and is to be considered as illustrative and not in a limiting sense; and that various changes may be made in the parts and in their construction and arrangement within the meaning of the terms and scope of the appended claims without departing from the spirit of the invention, for example, the disks 9 and 10 may be formed with interengaging radial serrations 25 shown in Figs. 5, 6 and 7, in-
stead of the sockets and beads as shown in Fig. 3. p
Likewise, the use ofthe spring as a tension means may be dispensed with and in this instance, the disk is formed with a centrally disposed boss 25 apertured for the reception of the hinge pin 26. A nut'27 threaded upon the lower end of pin 26, serves when tightened tohold the head 28 of the hinge pin against the uppermost disk so that the said disks are tensioned together. Resultantly, the corrugations 29' seat within the recesses 30 on the surface of the opposing disk.
It is obvious that'we may utilize projections of any configuration on the disks without departing from the spirit of the invention.
What we claim is 1. A control attachment for hinges comprising superimposed disks having a pair of peripherally disposed arms which normal- 1y extend in opposite directions; said arms having pairs of opposed flanges adapted to straddle the hinge leaves, beads formed on one of said disks, sockets provided on the other of said disks and adapted for the reception of said beads, and resilient means to press said disks toward each other to cause said beads and sockets to yieldingly resist relative rotation of said disks.
2. In a hinge, a pivot element, hinge leaves to swing on said pivot element, apair of superimposed washers rotatable on said pivot element, each of said Washers having a flat radial arm which is provided with a pair of opposed flanges adapted to straddle an edge portion of one of the leaves of the hinge to cause such washer to rotate therewith, one of said radial arms being longer than the other so that its flanges extend beyond the flanges of the other arm to permit the hinge leaves to fold more closely together, means for producing friction be tween said washers, and resilient means for pressing said washers toward each other.
In testimony whereof, we hereunto ailix our sfgnatures.
