Description

The invention relates to a mechanical housing that provides slow closing of toilet lids.

Mechanisms for smoothly closing the toilet lids have been manufactured for many years. In the prior art, it is well known to implement mechanisms and their housings for slowly closing toilet lids attached to the toilet. The problem of these mechanisms and / or their housing is that they contain many parts, have a complicated structure, and this determines the cumbersomeness of their installation on the toilet, the complexity of their assembly and operation.

According to the prior art, an articulated mounting element of a slow closing damper used in industry and installed separately on the mounting holes of the toilet bowl is used, and these elements are not connected to each other by a housing. This system is suitable for all types of toilets and toilet lids, but it is difficult to install because the casing and cavities for dampers are not connected to each other.

Also, according to the prior art, the hinged mounting element of the slow closing damper is all-body, and in it the slow closing dampers are fixed in the cavities with a cam clutch. But in this design, mounting is difficult due to the fact that the plastic fasteners in the slow-closing hinges are solid. During assembly, the one-piece mounting element is pre-installed on the damper and then secured in the hinge cavities. But since this one-piece mounting element remains attached to the hinge cavity, it is therefore very difficult to replace this part during dismantling. Even if slow-closing dampers are attached to the toilet lid, it must be disconnected from the toilet during complete disassembly.

Moreover, the slowly closing toilet lids of the prior art according to the patents / patent applications DE 10020180, DE 3718705, US 6009568, US 5946740, US 5842235 have problems in terms of cost, use and operation due to their complex design.

The objective of the invention is to provide a device applicable to a slow closing damper system for existing toilet lids. Due to the use of this device, the slow-closing damper hinge can be used on existing toilet lids without any modification, with the possibility of convenient assembly and disassembly.

The system in accordance with the present invention is presented in the accompanying drawings.

The invention relates to a mechanism (A) for slowly closing toilet lids; The hinged housing is designed to use the slow-closing damper (7) used in existing Vitra® toilet lids or in products from other manufacturers. The mechanism ensures that the damper (7) of slow closing produced by the industry is planted in the sockets (5) and prevents their accidental exit from the cavities of these nests.

The slow closing mechanism (A) according to FIG. 1 has a left hinge shaft (1), a right hinge shaft (2), a housing (3) and slotted mounts for mounting (4) on the housing (3), sockets (5) for dampers, a compressing element (6) and slow-closing dampers (7) (shown in FIG. 2).

According to figure 2, the housing (3) contains two slotted supports for mounting (4) on the toilet, on which the mounting grooves are made, a housing in the form of a hollow rectangular parallelepiped and a hollow half-cylinder containing a gap (17) for damper sockets, an opening (15) for the left hinge shaft on the left side and the hole (16) for the right hinge shaft on the right side.

The left hinge shaft (1) is a four-component construction and consists of the surface “a” of the cylindrical shape (1a) of the left hinge shaft, of the surface “b” of the hexagonal shape (1b) of the left hinge shaft, of the surface “c” of the left cylindrical shape (1c) the hinge shaft and from the surface "d" of the cylindrical shape (1d) of the left hinge shaft.

The right hinge shaft (2) is a four-component construction and consists of the surface “a” of the hexagonal shape (2a) of the right hinge shaft, of the surface “b” of the cylindrical shape (2b) of the right hinge shaft, of the surface “c” of the right cylindrical shape (2c) the hinge shaft and from the surface "d" of the cylindrical shape (2d) of the right hinge shaft.

Slow closing dampers (7) are made of a cylindrical elastic polymer material.

Two slots (5) for the damper have a semicircular gap on which slow-closing dampers (7) are tightly fixed, and are arranged to accommodate them in the accommodating gap (17) of the slots (3) for the damper on the body.

The compression element (6) according to FIGS. 2 and 3 is placed between the damper sockets (5) attached to the housing (3) and compresses the slow-closing dampers with its end surfaces (6a, 6b).

According to figures 1 and 3, the left joint shaft (1) is attached to the housing (3) so that the surface d (1d) of the left joint shaft remains in the housing (3), and the surfaces (1a, 1b, 1c) of the left joint shaft protrude from the hole (15) for the left joint shaft. The diameter of the hole (15) for the left hinge shaft is less than the diameter of the surface d (1d) of the left hinge shaft and larger than the diameter of the surfaces (1a, 1b, 1c) of the left hinge shaft. The right hinge shaft (2) is attached to the housing (3) so that the surface "d" (2d) of the right hinge shaft remains in the housing (3), and the surfaces (2a, 2b, 2c) of the right hinge shaft protrude from the hole (16 ) right hinge shaft. The diameter of the hole (16) for the right hinge shaft is less than the diameter of the surface "d" (2d) of the right hinge shaft and larger than the diameter of the surfaces (2a, 2b, 2c) of the right hinge shaft.

The mechanism in the housing (3) according to FIG. 2 is formed when the slow-closing dampers (7) according to FIG. 2 are tightly seated in the dampers sockets (5) and occupy a position in the dampers sockets (5) according to FIG. 3 due to that the compressing element (6), according to figure 3, is placed between the slots (5) for the damper. Rotary movements of the left shaft (1) of the hinge and the right shaft (2) of the hinge are slowed down due to the fact that the end surfaces (6a, 6b) of the compressing element compress the dampers (7) of slow closing between the left and right shafts (1, 2) of the hinge in the housing (3).

In the smooth closing mechanism (A) according to FIG. 4, the right bracket (11) of the bottom cover hinge and the left bracket (12) of the bottom cover hinge are attached to the bottom cover (14) of the toilet bowl. The right hinge bracket (11) of the bottom cover hinge is attached to the surface “b” (2b) of the right hinge shaft with a loose fit. The left hinge bracket (12) of the lower cover is also attached to the surface “b” of the left shaft (1b) of the hinge. Since the hole in which the left hinge bracket (12) of the lower cover is attached to the surface “b” (1b) of the left hinge shaft has a hexagonal shape, as does the surface “b” (1b) of the left hinge shaft, so the bottom cover and the left bracket (14) the hinges can provide pivoting movement of the left shaft (1) of the hinge. Therefore, the bottom cover (14) has the property of slow closing and opening.

In the smooth closing mechanism (A) according to FIG. 4, the right upper cover hinge bracket (10) and the upper cover hinge bracket (13) are attached to the upper lid (8) of the toilet bowl. The right bracket (10) of the hinge of the upper cover is attached to the surface "a" (2a) of the right shaft of the hinge. The left bracket (13) of the hinge of the upper cover is also attached to the surface "a" (1a) of the left shaft (1b) of the hinge with a loose fit. Since the hole in which the right hinge bracket (10) of the top cover is attached to the surface “a” (1a) of the right hinge shaft has a hexagonal shape, as does the surface “a” (1a) of the right hinge shaft, therefore, the top cover (8) and the right hinge bracket (14) of the top cover hinge can rotate the right shaft (2) of the hinge. Therefore, the top cover (8) has the property of slow closing and opening.

The grooves in the slotted supports on the housing (3) for mounting (4) on the toilet according to FIG. 4 are used to fix the screws (9) on the toilet.

A preferred slow closing mechanism (A) for toilet lids does not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. In view of the above description of the present invention, all modifications of this preferred slow closing mechanism (A) should be considered as being within the scope of the present invention.
