Definitions

the present invention relates to a detachable hinge for the articulation of a first element and a second element, in particular for the articulation of a cover on a box body.
Boxes of the aforementioned type are very frequently used for the storage of small materials, in particular sewing, electricity, fishing, etc .; for reasons of convenience both in storage and in use, it is particularly advantageous to provide such boxes with detachable hinges making it possible to make the cover independent of the box body or even to open the box by one or the other. other of its faces.
Patent FR 86 11 838 describes such a detachable hinge; however, it has the disadvantage of having a removable connecting member whose manipulation is not very easy and which can easily be lost.
the object of the present invention is to remedy this drawback by proposing a detachable hinge whose handling is extremely simple and which does not include a removable element.
This hinge is characterized in that it consists of a first articulation piece, in particular metallic, connected to the first element, of a second articulation piece, in particular metallic, connected to the second element and carrying the axis d articulation of the hinge as well as movable connecting means between a first locking position or position in which they cooperate with the articulation axis to hold the first articulation part integral with the second, and a second position or position release in which the two articulation parts are independent of each other.
connection means consist of a connection tab articulated by one of its ends around a connection axis secured to the first articulation piece and the opposite end of which carries a locking hook, this connecting tab being movable in rotation in a recess in the first articulation piece between a high position corresponding to the release position in which it is held elastically in the absence of any external stress acting on it and a low position corresponding to the locking position in which the locking hook engages the hinge pin, the connecting tab being able to be forced into the locking position and then being automatically locked in this position by locking members.
the second articulation part is provided, on either side of the articulation axis, with cylindrical bulges cooperating with concavities of corresponding shape and dimensions provided on the first articulation part, on either side of the recess allowing the rotation of the connecting tab.
the hinge comprises a movable blocking rod in translation in a slide parallel to the connecting axis provided for this purpose at the middle part of the first articulation piece, between a released position in which it is held elastically in the absence of any external stress acting on it by blocking the connecting tab in the locked position and a retracted position in which it can be brought by force by exerting a push on a first of its ends or external end, then automatically blocked by the locking members, the passage of the locking rod from the released position to the retracted position automatically causing the transfer of the connecting tab from the locking position to the release position .
the locking members consist of a bead carried by the second end or internal end of the locking rod and cooperating with a cavity of corresponding shape and dimensions laying provided on the side face opposite the connecting tab.
the locking rod can move freely to the released position; this movement is in fact limited by the rear wall of the cavity of the connecting tab which acts as a stop.
the movement of the connecting tab towards the release position is in fact limited by a part of the first articulation piece which forms a stop.
the internal end of the locking rod is provided with a longitudinal bore cooperating with a corresponding bore provided in the first articulation part, at the internal end of the slide, to define a housing for a first return spring capable of bringing and resiliently holding the locking rod in the released position in the absence of any external stress acting on it.
the connecting lug is provided, at its middle part, with a transverse bore defining a housing for a second return spring whose free end bears on the locking rod and which is likely to bring and elastically maintain the connecting lug in the release position in the absence of any external stress acting on it.
the first and the second articulation part are identical, each being provided with a connecting lug and a locking rod, and the articulation axis corresponding to the axis link.
the invention also relates to a rectangular box constituted by a cover and a box body, or even to a modular box provided at each of its corners with a hinge of the aforementioned type.
the hinge consists of a first articulation part 1 intended to be fixed to a first element, not shown, in particular a cover or a housing body as well as a second articulation part 1 'if milaire to the first articulation part 1 and also intended to be fixed to a second element, not shown, such as a cover or a box body.
each articulation part 1 carries an articulation axis 2 around which is articulated a connecting tab 3 terminated by a locking hook 4 intended to cooperate with the articulation axis 2 of a second part 1 'so as to secure these two parts 1, 1' relative to each other.
the connecting tab 3 is movable between a high position shown in FIG. 1 in which it is held elastically in the absence of any external stress acting on it thanks to a return spring which will be described in more detail below. of this presentation, and a low position shown in Figure 2 in which it engages the hinge pin 2 of the associated hinge part to allow the articulation of the two parts 1, 1 '.
the articulation piece 1, l ' has a transverse recess 7 at its central part.
the high position of the connecting lug 3 shown diagrammatically in dotted lines in FIG. 3 corresponds to the position of release of the hinge in which the two articulation parts 1 and 1 ′ are independent of each other.
the low position shown in solid lines in this same FIG. 3 corresponds to the locking position of the hinge, in which the two articulation parts I and 1 ′ are integrally movable in rotation about the articulation axis 2.
the articulation piece 1, l ' also comprises a longitudinal slide 10 allowing the displacement of a blocking rod 11 movable in translation between a disengaged position shown in Figure 2 in which it is held elastically in the absence of any external stress acting on it under the action of a return spring which will be described more precisely in the remainder of this description, and a retracted position shown in FIG. 1 in which it can be brought by force by exerting a push along arrow A on its outer end 12; the transfer of the locking rod 11 from the released position to the retracted position automatically causes the movement of the connecting lug 3 towards its high position (FIG. 1).
the connecting tab 3 can be brought into the low position ( Figure 2) by exerting a constraint B at its middle part; this movement automatically causes the displacement of the locking rod 11 from its retracted position to its released position; locking members which will be described in more detail in the remainder of this description allow each time to block the elements 3 and 11 in their final position.
the articulation piece 1, 1 ' is provided with a plate 13 bent at 90 forming an angle; as already mentioned, this characteristic is in no way limitative of the invention.
cylindrical bores 14, 14 ′ situated on either side of the recess 7 allowing the movement of the connecting tab 3, are intended to receive the axis of joint 2 not shown. Stops 15 make it possible to limit this movement.
the slide 10 has a geometry corresponding to that of the locking rod 11 shown in FIGS. 6a, 6b and 6c and is provided at its internal end with a notch 16 terminated in a hole 17.
the locking rod 11 is provided, at its external end 12, with a tongue 18 whose particular shape makes it possible to facilitate its pushing according to arrow A.
the internal part 19 of the rod blocking 11 carries a bead 20 clearly shown in Figure 6c which has a shape corresponding to that of the notch 16 in which it is intended to be introduced and whose role will be described in more detail in the following description; an internal bore 21 cooperates with the bore 17 of the slide 10 of the articulation piece 1, l 'to define a housing for a first return spring, not shown, whose role is, as has already been indicated, d bringing and resiliently holding the locking rod 11 in the disengaged position shown in FIG. 2. This movement is limited by a part forming an abutment of the connecting rod 3.
the connecting tab 11 is provided at one of its ends with two tongues 22, 22 'respectively carrying a perforation (23) allowing its articulation around the axis of articulation 2; the end opposite to these tabs 22, 22 ′ carries the locking hook 4.
the middle part of the connecting lug 3 carries, moreover, a shoulder 24 allowing the passage of the middle part of the locking rod 11.
This recess is bordered, on one of the lateral faces 25 of the connecting lug 4 , by a cavity 26, the shape and dimensions of which correspond to those of the bead 20 of the locking rod 11 which it is intended to receive; the bottom 27 of this cavity 26 constitutes a stop for the movement of the locking rod 11 in its displacement towards its released position (FIG. 2) under the action of the return spring placed in the housing 17, 21.
connecting lug 3 is also provided with a transverse bore 28 terminated by a projection 29 and defining a housing for a second return spring, not shown, the free end of which rests on the middle part of the rod. blocking 11; this return spring is capable of bringing and elastically maintaining the connecting tab 3 in the release position (FIG. 1) in the absence of any external stress acting on it.
the invention also relates to the finishing pieces having the overall shape of the articulation pieces 1, the but coming at the end of the chain and no longer receiving other articulation pieces.
