Definitions
- the present invention relates to an accessory for a snap hinge.
- Snap hinges are normally made of metal in order to better withstand the mechanical forces to which they are subjected and they are widely used in caravans, or the like, where, in extremely reduced spaces, the best use is sought of all the available space, using every single gap as a containment compartment.
- the reduced space available dictates, consequently, the use of compact and articulated hinges comprising two or more levers in order to be able to open and close the various leaves without occupying too much space inside the containment compartment and without interfering with other, adjacent leaves.
- Such conventional snap hinges are not free from drawbacks including the fact that, after a long period of use, they release residues deriving from their use, soiling the portions of furniture and objects located nearby.
- such hinges of extremely reduced size are comprised of a plurality of levers which, in cramped spaces, generate friction during their use in the steps of closing and opening the leaf, producing metal dust, which, by gravity, falls onto objects near the hinges.
- Metal dust in contact with the air and the water particles suspended therein, tends to oxidize irrevocably soiling the fabrics and objects on which it comes to rest. In addition to this the metal dust could fall on foodstuffs placed inside the containment compartments, thus rendering the subsequent consumption thereof unhygienic.
- the aim of the present invention is to provide an accessory for a snap hinge that compensates for the drawbacks and overcomes the limitations of the known art by making it possible to keep the objects adjacent thereto clean.
- an object of the present invention is to provide an accessory that is capable of offering the widest guarantees of reliability and safety in use.
- Another object of the invention is to provide an accessory that is easy to implement and has a low cost.
- an accessory for a snap hinge characterized in that it comprises a body provided with a receptacle within it and means for fastening to at least one lever of a snap hinge, said receptacle being provided with at least one concave portion thereof that is directed upward, during the use of said accessory on the hinge, in order to define substantially a collection bag for residues deriving from the use of the hinge.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of an accessory for a snap hinge, according to the invention.
- Figures 2 and 3 are side elevation views of the accessory applied to a first snap hinge respectively in the closed position and in the open position, according to the invention
- Figure 4 is a perspective view of a different embodiment of an accessory for a snap hinge, according to the invention.
- Figures 5 and 6 are side elevation views of the different embodiment of the accessory applied to a second snap hinge respectively in the closed position and in the open position, according to the invention.
- an accessory for a snap hinge generally designated with the reference numeral 1, according to the invention, comprises a body 2 that is provided therewithin with a receptacle 3 with a concave portion.
- the body 2 has a polygonal shape composed of a plurality of walls that are substantially mutually continuous and consecutive and an opening 12 through which the inside of the body 2 is accessed.
- the body 2 is comprised of a central plate 8 that is substantially rectangular in plan view and from which extend, from two first opposite ends, two side walls 6 that are substantially parallel to each other and, from the remaining two opposite ends, two transverse walls 9.
- the central plate 8 comprises a first plate 10 and a second plate 11 , substantially sheet-like, connected to each other by way of a common side 13.
- the first plate 10 and the second plate 11 are arranged on respective planes substantially transverse to each other and substantially perpendicular to the side walls 6.
- the accessory 1 comprises fastening means 4 for the engagement thereof with at least one lever 101 of the hinge 100.
- the fastening means 4 are arranged on the side walls 6 and comprise at least one pair of recesses 7, in line with each other, defined on each one of the walls.
- the fastening means comprise two pairs of recesses 7 defined, two by two, on the inner surfaces of the side walls 6.
- the body 2 is composed of elastically deformable material which, advantageously, is polymeric material. Such material, in addition to offering a surface that is resistant to the various chemical agents present in the liquid inserted in the shock absorber pistons placed between the levers of the individual hinges, is conveniently adapted to mass production so as to be able to offer a final product at low cost.
- the body 2 is made of metallic material of limited thickness so as to be capable of being elastically deformable.
- the body 2 has a more elongated shape in order to be capable of being coupled to a different type of hinge 100, with side walls 6 of lesser width and a central plate 8 that is longer with respect to the embodiment described above.
- the mounting of the accessory 1 on the snap hinge 100 makes it possible to arrange the receptacle 3 in proximity to the lower end of the hinge 100, thus enabling the positioning of the concave portion of the receptacle 3 always facing upward.
- the concave portion acts as a collection bag to hold within it any ferrous dust or droplets of excess liquid from shock absorber pistons of the hinge 100 thus preventing such residues from exiting from the accessory 1, and soiling objects located below it.
- the receptacle 3 in which the accessory 1 is installed on hinges respectively in the closed position and in the open position, it should be noted that the receptacle 3 always presents the concave portion directed upward, thus preventing the possible tipping-out of the substances accommodated within it.
- the side walls 6 have a geometric profile that is such as to not knock against parts of the hinge 100 or of the item of furniture during the opening and closing of the leaf.
- the body of the accessory can have different shapes, such as for example a single curvilinear body or multiple consecutive curvilinear and/or planar portions, all shapes featuring a concave portion in which to accommodate residues deriving from the wear or use of the hinge.
- shape must follow the outline of the hinge so as to occupy the least possible space within the containment compartment and, at the same time, not impede the movements thereof.
- the means of fastening the accessory can also take different forms or comprise purchase elements to be engaged on the hinge, such as for example U-shaped elastically deformable elements to be snapped on over the body of the lever or small clamps that, by way of springs, hook over the body of the lever.
- the accessory for a snap hinge according to the present invention achieves the intended aim and objects in that it makes it possible to collect within it residues deriving from the use of the hinges.
- a further advantage of the accessory according to the invention consists in that it can be installed on hinges already in use, since its installation does not require the dismantling of any element.
