A hinge bolt is connected to the other component and extends through the eyelets in order to connect the components. To be able to displace the components relative to one another, the hinge bolt is fixedly connected to its component and the eyelets are attached to the hinge bolt via pivotable connected rods such that the eyelets are displaceable along an axis of the hinge bolt, with the hinge bolt having such a configuration that rotation of the hinge bolt effects displacement of the eyelets.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Scharnier zur Halterung von zwei um eine Scharnierachse drehbar aneinander gehaltenen Bauteilen wie Schrank und zugehörige Tür oder dergleichen mit einem zwei fluchtend angeordnete Ösen aufweisenden, an dem einen Bauteil angeordneten Scharnierbock und mit einer zur Verbindung der Bauteile die Ösen des Scharnierbockes durchgreifenden und mit dem anderen Bauteil verbundenen Scharnierbolzen.The invention relates to a hinge for holding two held together rotatably about a hinge axis Components such as cupboard and associated door or the like with two eyelets arranged in alignment the one component arranged hinge bracket and with a to connect the components, the eyes of the hinge bracket sweeping and connected to the other component Hinge pin.

Gattungsgemäße Scharniere sind durch Benutzung bekannt; bei ihnen greift üblicherweise ein an dem einen Bauteil befestigter Scharnierlappen mit einer zugeordneten Buchse zwischen die fluchtend angeordneten Ösen des an dem anderen Bauteil befestigten Scharnierbockes, wobei eine Verbindung der Bauteile durch einen durch die Ösen des Scharnierbockes und die Buchse des Scharnierlappens gesteckten Scharnierbolzen erfolgt. Somit ist das eine Bauteil um die durch den Scharnierbolzen festgelegte Achse zu dem anderen Bauteil drehbar an diesem gehaltert.Generic hinges are known from use; at they usually engage on one component attached hinge tab with an associated socket between the aligned lugs of the other Component fastened hinge bracket, being a connection the components through one through the eyes of the hinge bracket and inserted the socket of the hinge tab Hinge pin is done. So this is a component around axis defined by the hinge pin to the other Component rotatably supported on this.

Mit derartigen Scharnieren ist der Nachteil verbunden, daß die Drehachse des Scharniers in jeder Lage der beiden Bauteile zueinander unverändert festliegt, so daß die beiden durch das Scharnier verbundenen Bauteile in jeder Stellung zueinander im Bereich des Scharniers aneinander liegen. Damit sind Aufgabenstellungen für ein Scharnier nicht lösbar, bei denen beispielsweise eine Verlagerung des einen Bauteils gegenüber dem anderen Bauteil während der Drehbewegung wünschenswert ist. So kann es bei bestimmten Anordnungen beispielsweise eines Schrankes, vorzugsweise eines Schaltschrankes, mit einer zugehörigen Tür wünschenswert sein, daß sich die Tür bei der Öffnung von dem Schrankprofil um einen bestimmten Betrag abhebt.The disadvantage of such hinges is that the axis of rotation of the hinge in any position of the two Components fixed to each other unchanged, so that the two components connected by the hinge in any position lie against each other in the area of the hinge. This is not a problem for a hinge releasable, in which, for example, a shift of one Component compared to the other component during the Rotational movement is desirable. So it can be with certain Arrangements for example of a closet, preferably of a control cabinet with an associated door it would be desirable for the door to open when the door opened Cabinet profile stands out by a certain amount.

Ein gattungsgemäßes Scharnier ist in der nicht vorveröffentlichen DE 40 35 199 A1 beschrieben, bei welchem eine Verlagerungsmöglichkeit der Scharnierbolzenanordnung vorgeschlagen ist, indem die den Scharnierbolzen aufnehmende Scharnierbuchse an dem zugeordneten Scharnierteil über ein Schiebestück verschiebbar angeordnet ist, so daß die Lage des Scharnierbolzens entsprechend frei einstellbar ist. Die bekannte Verlagerungsmöglichkeit erlaubt jedoch keine Verlagerung des Scharnierbolzens gleichzeitig mit der Drehbewegung des Scharniers.A generic hinge is described in the unpublished DE 40 35 199 A1, in which a possibility of relocating the Hinge pin arrangement is proposed by the Hinge pin receiving hinge bush on the assigned hinge part via a sliding piece is slidably arranged so that the location of the Hinge pin is freely adjustable accordingly. The Known relocation option does not allow Displacement of the hinge pin simultaneously with the Rotation of the hinge.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein gattungsgemäßes Scharnier zur Verfügung zu stellen, welches eine gegenseitige Verlagerung der mit dem Scharnier verbundenen Bauteile wie Schrank und zugehörige Tür oder dergleichen während der Drehbewegung erlaubt.The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a generic hinge, which a mutual relocation of the one with the hinge connected components such as cabinet and associated door or the like allowed during the rotational movement.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe ergibt sich aus den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1; vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.The solution to this problem follows from the characteristic ones Features of claim 1; advantageous embodiments and developments of the invention are in the subclaims specified.

Die Erfindung sieht im einzelnen vor, daß die Ösen an dem Scharnierbock über schwenkbare Lenker derart angeschlagen sind, daß die Ösen längs der Achse des Scharnierbolzens verschiebbar sind und daß der Scharnierbolzen mit dem zugehörigen Bauteil drehfest verbunden ist und eine die Ösen bei Drehung des Scharnierbolzens verschiebende Gestaltung aufweist. Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Gestaltung ist der Vorteil verbunden, daß die Drehung beispielsweise einer Tür den damit verbundenen Scharnierbolzen mitdrehen läßt, wodurch die an dem Scharnierbock über Lenker drehbeweglich angelenkten Ösen sich längs der Achse des Scharnierbolzens bewegen; je nach Stellung der die Ösen tragenden Lenker zu dem Scharnierbock ergibt sich ein unterschiedlicher Abstand des Scharnierbolzens von dem Scharnierbock, so daß auch die mit dem Scharnierbolzen beziehungsweise dem Scharnierbock jeweils verbundenen Bauteile einen unterschiedlichen Abstand zueinander einnehmen. Somit ist es möglich, bei Drehbewegung des einen Bauteils eine gleichzeitige Verlagerung seiner Stellung zu dem anderen Bauteil herbeizuführen, indem die Drehachse parallel zu sich verlagert wird.The invention provides in detail that the eyelets on the Hinge bracket struck in such a way over swiveling handlebars are that the eyelets are along the axis of the hinge pin are movable and that the hinge pin with the associated component is rotatably connected and one of the eyelets Moving design when the hinge pin rotates having. With the design according to the invention Advantage connected that the rotation of a door, for example lets the associated hinge pin rotate, whereby the rotatable on the hinge bracket over the handlebars hinged eyelets along the axis of the hinge pin move; depending on the position of the handlebars carrying the eyelets there is a different distance between the hinge bracket of the hinge pin from the hinge bracket, so that the with the hinge pin or the hinge bracket each connected component a different distance to each other. So it is possible with rotary motion the one component a simultaneous shift of its To bring about position to the other component by the Axis of rotation is shifted parallel to itself.

Nach einem Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung sind in der geschlossenen Stellung des Scharniers mit aneinander anliegenden Bauteilen die Ösen an den äußeren Enden des Scharnierbolzens gelegen und durch die Drehung des Scharnierbolzens in eine gegenläufige Bewegung zueinander zu bringen. Aufgrund der an den Ösen drehbar angelenkten Lenker vergrößert sich dabei der Abstand des Scharnierbolzens zu dem Scharnierbock. Alternativ ist der gleiche Effekt beispielsweise auch herstellbar, wenn die Ösen mittels eines Parallelogrammlenkers an dem Scharnierbock angeschlagen sind, weil auch dann eine Verschiebung der Ösen eine Verlagerung des Scharnierbolzens bewirkt.According to an embodiment of the invention are in the closed position of the hinge with each other adjacent components the eyelets at the outer ends of the Hinge pin located and by the rotation of the Hinge pin in an opposite movement to each other bring. Due to the handlebars pivoted on the eyelets the distance between the hinge pin increases Hinge bracket. Alternatively, the same effect For example, can also be produced if the eyelets are by means of a Parallelogram handlebar attached to the hinge bracket are, because even then a shift of the eyelets one Displacement of the hinge pin causes.

Nach einem Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung weist der Scharnierbolzen einen als Flachprofil ausgebildeten Abschnitt zur Befestigung an dem zugeordneten Bauteil auf, wobei die die Ösen bei Drehung des Scharnierbolzens verschiebende Gestaltung der Scharnierbolzen beiderseits des vorgenannten Abschnittes als die Ösen des Scharnierbockes durchgreifende Drehspindel ausgebildet ist. Wird der Scharnierbolzen mit seinem Flachprofil an dem zugeordneten Bauteil beispielsweise angeschraubt, so ergibt sich eine drehfeste Verbindung des Scharnierbolzens mit dem Bauteil. Die spindelartige Ausführung der beiden Endabschnitte des Scharnierbolzens führt dazu, daß eine Verdrehung des Scharnierbolzens die Ösen über die Längsachse des Bolzens sich verschieben läßt.According to an embodiment of the invention, the Hinge pin designed as a flat profile Section for attachment to the assigned component, the design of the hinge pins displacing the eyelets when the hinge pin rotates on both sides of the aforementioned Section as penetrating through the eyes of the hinge bracket Rotary spindle is formed. Is the hinge pin with its flat profile on the assigned component for example screwed on, there is a non-rotatable Connection of the hinge pin to the component. The spindle-like design of the two end sections of the Hinge pin causes a twist of the Hinge pin the eyelets along the longitudinal axis of the pin can be moved.

Vorzugsweise sind die Drehspindelabschnitte des Scharnierbolzens dadurch ausgebildet, daß das Flachprofil des mittleren Abschnitts des Scharnierbolzens in eine Spiralform gebogen ist, wobei die so gebildeten Spiralen die an dem Scharnierbock angelenkten Ösen in den zugeordneten Öffnungen durchgreifen.Preferably, the rotary spindle sections of the Hinge pin formed in that the flat profile the middle section of the hinge pin into one Spiral shape is bent, the spirals thus formed the attached to the hinge bracket in the assigned Reach through openings.

Entsprechend weisen die drehbar mit den zugehörigen Lenkern verbundenen Ösen für ihre Durchtrittsöffnung für den Scharnierbolzen einen Rechteckquerschnitt auf, dessen Maß den Abmessungen des Flachbandprofilabschnitts des Scharnierbolzens in etwa entspricht, so daß sich die aus dem Flachbandprofil gebildete Spirale in den Durchtrittsöffnungen der Ösen drehen und die Ösen dadurch verschieben kann.Accordingly, they are rotatable with the associated handlebars connected eyelets for their passage opening for the Hinge bolts have a rectangular cross-section, the dimension of which the dimensions of the ribbon profile section of the Hinge pin corresponds approximately, so that from the Ribbon profile formed spiral in the Turn the openings of the eyelets and thereby the eyelets can move.

Nach einem Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist der Scharnierbolzen mit einem Schraubgewinde versehen, und die Ösen sind als auf dem Scharnierbolzen sitzende Buchsen mit einem zugehörigen Innengewinde ausgebildet; mit einer solchen Gestaltung kann die Leichtgängigkeit der entsprechenden Verschiebebewegung verbessert werden.According to an embodiment of the invention Hinge pin provided with a screw thread, and the Eyelets are included as sockets on the hinge pin an associated internal thread formed; with a such design can ease the corresponding displacement movement can be improved.

In dieser Beziehung sieht ein weiterhin verbessertes Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung vor, daß der Scharnierbolzen einen Gewindegang zur führenden Aufnahme einer Kugel aufweist und die zugehörige Öse als auf dem Scharnierbolzen sitzende Buchse mit einer darin ortsfest angeordneten, in den Gewindegang des Scharnierbolzens eingreifenden Führungskugel ausgebildet ist; eine solche Kugelführung verbessert die Leichtgängigkeit der Verschiebebewegung weiter. In einer entsprechenden Weiterbildung der Erfindung können auf dem Außenumfang des Scharnierbolzens mehrere Gewindegänge angeordnet sein, denen in der den Scharnierbolzen übergreifenden Buchse mehrere Führungskugeln zugeordnet sind.A further improved exemplary embodiment sees in this respect the invention that the hinge pin has a thread for the leading reception of a ball and the associated eyelet as on the hinge pin seated socket with a stationary arranged therein, in engaging the thread of the hinge pin Guide ball is formed; such a ball guide improves the smooth movement of the sliding movement continue. In a corresponding development of the invention can have several on the outer circumference of the hinge pin Threads can be arranged in which the hinge pin overlapping bushing several guide balls assigned.

Nach einem Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung sind die Lenker zwischen Scharnierbock und Ösen beziehungsweise Buchsen des Scharniers in einem scherenförmigen Verlauf angeordnet, wodurch der Einbauraum bei geschlossenem Scharnier verkleinert ist. Nach einem Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist dabei der Scharnierbock zur Führung der scherenförmigen Lenker als Doppel-C-Schiene mit einem Führungsschlitz zum einfassenden Führen der Lenker ausgebildet.According to an embodiment of the invention, the handlebars between hinge bracket and eyelets or sockets of the Hinge arranged in a scissor-shaped course, whereby the installation space with the hinge closed is reduced. According to an embodiment of the Invention is the hinge bracket for guiding the scissor-shaped handlebars as a double C-rail with a Guide slot for guiding the handlebars educated.

Soweit ein erfindungsgemäßes Scharnier auch zum Aushängen eines Scharnierteiles, vorzugsweise einer Schranktür, ausgebildet sein soll, ist es zweckmäßig, den Scharnierbock als U-förmiges Gehäuse zur Aufnahme der Lagerbolzen der Lenker auszubilden, wobei die eine offene Seite des Gehäuses mit einer lösbaren Arretierung verschlossen ist, wobei nach Lösen dieser Arretierung die Lenker mit den zugeordneten Lagerbolzen aus dem Scharnierbock herausnehmbar sind, so daß insoweit die Teile des Scharniers voneinander lösbar sind, wie dies beim Aushängen einer Tür erforderlich ist. As far as a hinge according to the invention also for hanging a hinge part, preferably a cabinet door, should be trained, it is appropriate to the hinge bracket as a U-shaped housing for receiving the bearing bolts of the Training handlebars, the one open side of the housing is closed with a releasable locking device, whereby after Release this lock the handlebars with the assigned Bearing bolts are removable from the hinge bracket, so that insofar as the parts of the hinge can be detached from one another, as is necessary when a door is unhooked.

In den Figuren 1 bis 5 sind zunächst in vereinfachter Form nur die Einzelteile des Scharniers dargestellt, ohne daß auch die zugehörigen Bauteile als Träger des Scharniers mit dargestellt sind. In Figures 1 to 5 are first in a simplified form only the individual parts of the hinge shown without also the associated components as carriers of the hinge are shown.

Das Scharnier besteht aus einem Scharnierbock 10, der über Befestigungsbohrungen 11 durchgreifende, nicht dargestellte Befestigungsmittel an dem einen der beiden durch das Scharnier zu verbindenden Bauteile, beispielsweise einem Schrank, zu befestigen ist. An dem Scharnierbock 10 sind über Schrauben 12 um deren Achse schwenkbare Lenker 13 befestigt, die an ihrem anderen Ende ebenfalls drehbar über zugehörige Befestigungsmittel 14 mit jeweils einer Öse 15 verbunden sind. Die Ösen 15 weisen Durchtrittsöffnungen 16 (Figur 5) für einen Scharnierbolzen 17 auf.The hinge consists of a hinge bracket 10 which over Fastening holes 11 penetrating, not shown Fasteners on one of the two through the Hinge components to be connected, for example a Closet to attach. Are on the hinge bracket 10 Handlebars 13 which can be pivoted about their axis via screws 12 attached, which is also rotatable at its other end associated fastening means 14, each with an eyelet 15 are connected. The eyelets 15 have passage openings 16 (Figure 5) for a hinge pin 17.

Der Scharnierbolzen 17 besteht in seinem mittleren Teil aus dem als Flachprofil ausgebildeten Abschnitt 18, an den sich beiderseits nach Art von Drehspindeln ausgebildete Abschnitte als eine die Ösen 15 bei Drehung des Scharnierbolzens 17 verschiebende Gestaltung 19 anschließen, mit denen der Scharnierbolzen 17 die Durchtrittsöffnung 16 der beiden Ösen 15 durchgreift. Zur Ausbildung der Drehspindel ist das Flachprofil des Abschnitts 18 in eine Spirale verdreht.The hinge pin 17 consists in its central part the section 18 designed as a flat profile to which trained on both sides in the manner of rotating spindles Connect sections as a design 19 displacing the eyelets 15 when the hinge pin 17 rotates, with which the hinge pin 17 the Passing through opening 16 of the two eyelets 15. For Training of the rotating spindle is the flat profile of the Section 18 twisted into a spiral.

Entsprechend weisen die Durchtrittsöffnungen 16 in den Ösen 15 einen rechteckigen Querschnitt auf, der in etwa den Abmessungen des Flachprofils des Abschnitts 18 des Scharnierbolzens 17 entspricht, so daß eine Verdrehung der Drehspindeln (Gestaltung 19) des Scharnierbolzens 17 in den Durchtrittsöffnungen 16 möglich ist.Correspondingly, the passage openings 16 in the eyelets 15 has a rectangular cross section, which is approximately the Dimensions of the flat profile of section 18 of the Hinge pin 17 corresponds, so that a rotation of the Rotary spindles (design 19) of the hinge pin 17 in the passage openings 16 is possible.

In den Figuren 1 und 2 ist die geschlossene Stellung des Scharniers mit einer gestreckten Lage der Lenker 13 dargestellt, bei denen der Abstand des Scharnierbolzens 17 zum Scharnierbock 10 sein geringstes Maß hat, so daß die jeweils mit den Teilen des Scharniers verbundenen Bauteile aneinander anliegend ausgerichtet sind. Bei Drehung des Scharnierbolzens 17 um 180 Grad in die aus Figur 3 ersichtliche Lage werden die Ösen 15 längs der Drehspindeln (Gestaltung 19) des Scharnierbolzens 17 in gegenläufiger Bewegung aufeinander zu verschoben, und sie nehmen dabei die Lenker 13 mit, so daß sich eine entsprechende parallele Verlagerung des Scharnierbolzens 17 zu sich und eine Vergrößerung des Abstandes des Scharnierbolzens 17 von dem Scharnierbock 10 ergeben. Wie sich insbesondere aus der Figur 4 entnehmen läßt, hat sich bei einem um 180 Grad aufgeschwenkten Bauteil, beispielsweise einer Tür, diese Tür von dem Schrankprofil als Träger des Scharnierbockes um den durch die Lage der Lenker 13 bewirkten Abstand abgehoben. Zum Schließen wird der Scharnierbolzen 17 wieder in seine Ausgangslage gemäß Figur 1 zurückgedreht, wodurch sich eine Verlagerung der Ösen 15 nach außen ergibt, die somit die Lenker 13 wieder in die gestreckte Lage zum Scharnierbock 10 überführen mit einer entsprechenden Verringerung des Abstandes des Scharnierbolzens 17 zum Scharnierbock 10.In Figures 1 and 2, the closed position of the Hinge with the handlebars 13 in an extended position shown, in which the distance of the hinge pin 17th to the hinge bracket 10 has its smallest dimension, so that the components connected to the parts of the hinge are aligned with each other. When the Hinge pin 17 by 180 degrees into that of Figure 3 visible position, the eyelets 15 along the rotating spindles (design 19) of the hinge pin 17 in opposite movement moved towards each other and they take the handlebars 13 with, so that there is a corresponding parallel displacement of the hinge pin 17 to itself and an enlargement of the Distance of the hinge pin 17 from the hinge bracket 10 surrender. As can be seen in particular from FIG. 4 can, has swung open at 180 degrees Component, for example a door, this door from that Cupboard profile as a carrier of the hinge bracket around the the position of the handlebars 13 caused distance lifted. To the The hinge pin 17 will close again in its Starting position turned back according to Figure 1, whereby a Displacement of the eyelets 15 results in the outside, thus the Handlebar 13 again in the extended position to the hinge bracket 10 convict with a corresponding reduction in Distance of the hinge pin 17 to the hinge bracket 10.

In den Figuren 6 bis 7 ist eine konstruktiv weitergebildete Ausführungsform der Erfindung dargestellt, bei welcher das Scharnier als innenliegendes Scharnier mit einem Öffnungswinkel von 180 Grad ausgebildet ist, wie es für eine Anwendung des Scharniers bei in Reihenschrankanordnung aufzustellenden Schränken zweckmäßig ist. Wie sich aus Figur 6 ergibt, ist das Scharnier in einem Eckraum 26 eines Schrankes, vorzugsweise eines aus dünnwandigem Blech bestehenden Schaltschrankes, angeordnet, wobei dieser Eckraum 26 zwischen einer eine Abkantung 25 aufweisenden Tür 24 und einer mit Versatz 22 zur Seitenwand 21 angeordneten Vorsprungleiste 23 des Schrankkorpus gebildet ist. Beim Aufschwenken der Tür 24 ergibt sich dann die in Figur 7 ersichtliche Stellung, bei welcher deutlich das Abheben der Tür 24 von dem Schrankkorpus zu erkennen ist, so daß ein entsprechender Freiraum zum Aufschwenken der Tür 24 vor die zugeordnete Tür des benachbarten Schrankes gegeben ist.FIGS. 6 to 7 show a further construction Embodiment of the invention shown, in which the Hinge as an internal hinge with an opening angle of 180 degrees, as it is for a Use of the hinge in a row cabinet arrangement to be installed cabinets is appropriate. How to figure 6 results, the hinge in a corner space 26 is one Cupboard, preferably one made of thin-walled sheet metal existing control cabinet, arranged, this Corner room 26 between a door having a bend 25 24 and one with offset 22 to the side wall 21 Projection strip 23 of the cabinet body is formed. At the The door 24 then swings open as shown in FIG. 7 apparent position, in which clearly the lifting of the Door 24 can be seen from the cabinet body, so that a Corresponding free space for opening the door 24 in front of the assigned door of the adjacent cabinet is given.

Wie den Figuren 6a, 7a im einzelnen weiter zu entnehmen ist, ist der an dem Schrankkorpus befestigte Scharnierbock 10 als Doppel-C-Profilschiene ausgebildet, in welcher die Lenker 13 mit zugeordneten Lagerbolzen 32 gehalten und geführt sind und aus dem Scharnierbock 10 über einen zugeordneten Längsschlitz in dem Schienenprofil heraustreten. Die Lenker 13 sind in einem scherenförmigen Verlauf mit einem Scherendrehpunkt 27 angeordnet. Wie in den Figuren angedeutet, sind bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel die auf dem Scharnierbolzen 17 bei der Öffnungsbewegung der Tür verschiebbaren Ösen als den Scharnierbolzen 17 umgreifende Buchsen 28 ausgebildet. Die besonders leichtgängige Führung der Buchsen 28 auf dem Scharnierbolzen 17 ist dadurch gegeben, daß der Scharnierbolzen 17 auf seinem Umfang mit mehreren schraubenförmig angeordneten Gewindegängen 29 versehen ist, in welchen im Inneren der Buchsen 29 ortsfest gelagerte Kugeln laufen. Hierbei kann es zweckmäßig sein, die entsprechenden Führungskugeln nicht an der Buchse 28 selbst zu lagern, sondern hierzu in der Buchse 28 noch eine Innenhülse anzuordnen.As can be seen in more detail in FIGS. 6a, 7a, is the hinge bracket 10 attached to the cabinet body as Double-C profile rail formed in which the handlebars 13th are held and guided with associated bearing bolts 32 and from the hinge bracket 10 via an associated Step out the longitudinal slot in the rail profile. The handlebars 13 are in a scissor-shaped course with a Scissor pivot 27 arranged. As in the figures are indicated in the illustrated embodiment the on the hinge pin 17 during the opening movement of the Door slidable eyelets as the hinge pin 17th encompassing bushings 28 formed. The special smooth guidance of the bushings 28 on the hinge pin 17 is given by the fact that the hinge pin 17 its circumference with several helically arranged Threads 29 is provided, in which inside the Bushings 29 run stationary balls. Here it can be appropriate not to the corresponding guide balls the socket 28 itself, but for this purpose in the socket 28 to arrange an inner sleeve.

Wie insbesondere der Figur 7 deutlich zu entnehmen ist, ist der als Doppel-C-Profilschiene ausgebildete Scharnierbock 10 in Längsrichtung des Scharniers als ein U-förmiges Gehäuse 30 ausgebildet, dessen offene Seite mit einer lösbaren Arretierung 31 derart verschlossen ist, daß die Lenker 13 mit den zugeordneten Lagerbolzen 32 in dem Gehäuse 30 gehalten und geführt sind. Wird die Arretierung 31 aus dem Gehäuse 30 des Scharnierbockes 10 entfernt, sind die Lenker 13 aus dem Scharnierbock 10 herauszuziehen, so daß damit eine Lösung der Scharnierteile voneinander ermöglicht ist, die eine Aushängbarkeit der Tür 24 gegenüber dem Schrankkorpus zur Folge hat.As can be clearly seen in particular from FIG the hinge bracket 10, which is designed as a double-C profile rail in the longitudinal direction of the hinge as a U-shaped housing 30 formed, the open side with a detachable Lock 31 is closed such that the handlebars 13th with the associated bearing bolts 32 in the housing 30 are held and led. If the locking 31 from the Housing 30 of the hinge bracket 10 are removed, the handlebars 13 pull out of the hinge bracket 10 so that the hinge parts can be separated from one another, which a detachability of the door 24 compared to Cabinet body results.
