Description

The invention relates to a furniture hinge for the articulated attachment of a furniture door, flap or the like to a furniture body, in particular to a frame of the furniture body, with a mounting body for attaching the furniture hinge to the furniture body and a hinge body for attaching the furniture hinge to the furniture door, flap or the like, wherein the hinge body is assigned a pivotally mounted hinge arm and wherein the hinge arm can be attached directly or indirectly to the mounting body.

The invention further relates to a method for the articulated attachment of a furniture door, flap or the like with at least one furniture hinge to a furniture body, in particular to a frame of a furniture body, with a mounting body of the furniture hinge on the furniture body and a hinge body of the furniture hinge on the furniture door, flap or the like is attached, wherein the hinge body is assigned a pivotally mounted hinge arm and wherein the hinge arm is attached indirectly or directly to the mounting body.

From Scripture EP 1 367 203 A2 a furniture hinge with a hinge cup and a base plate articulated via a multi-part arm connection is known. For this purpose, a hinge arm is connected to the base plate in an articulated manner. Opposite, an angled holding arm is attached to the hinge arm via a first eccentric. A second eccentric connects the holding arm opposite the first eccentric with an arm section which is attached to the base plate via a third eccentric. The base plate can be attached to a furniture wall using fastening screws, in particular on the front side to a vertically extending frame of the piece of furniture (face frame). The hinge cup is attached to a furniture door. The eccentrics each enable linear adjustment, so that the furniture door can be adjusted in three spatial directions relative to the furniture wall. They permanently connect the sections of the arm connection and the base plate so that the furniture hinge can only be installed as a coherent component. In order to attach the furniture door to the furniture body, the door must be held by a fitter while he simultaneously screws the base plate onto the furniture wall. This is energy-consuming and time-consuming and can lead to inaccurate assembly of the door or damage to the piece of furniture if the installer drops the door in unfavorable installation situations. Assembly is particularly difficult for pieces of furniture in which the furniture hinge is attached to the front of a frame (face frame), since there is only a small contact surface for the base plate.

The DE 7 924 808 U1 discloses a cabinet with a door pivoted about a vertical axis. A hinge mounting block is screwed to a vertical strip of the cabinet. Opposite, a hinge cup is embedded in a corresponding hole in a furniture door of the cabinet and connected to it. A hinge arm that is articulated to the hinge cup is guided to the mounting block and attached to it by means of a screw. To assemble the door, the hinge cup is first attached to the door and the mounting block to the bar of the cabinet. The door is then aligned with the body of the cabinet so that the hinge arm rests on the mounting block and can be screwed to it. Here, too, the door must be held by a fitter and at the same time a tool must be used to screw in the connecting screw between the hinge arm and the mounting block. This requires a lot of force and, especially in unfavorable assembly situations, can result in the installer tilting or dropping the door, which can damage the door or the piece of furniture.

The US 2005/251963 A1 discloses a hinge for attaching a door to a side wall of a piece of furniture. The hinge includes a second hinge element for attachment to the door and a first hinge element for attachment to the side wall. A hinge arm is pivotally connected to the first hinge element. The hinge arm is received in an intermediate hinge member having elongated guide members which can be slidably inserted into guide grooves provided in a housing of the second hinge member during assembly of the door of the side wall. The second hinge element further comprises a cover which is equipped with a counterpart which engages behind a tooth of the intermediate hinge element of the hinge arm when the insertion of the intermediate hinge element into the housing of the second hinge element is completed. The lid is biased into the closed position by a leaf spring.

It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a furniture hinge which enables a furniture door, flap or the like to be easily mounted on a furniture body of a piece of furniture, in particular on a frame (face frame) of the furniture body.

It is a further object of the invention to provide a method which allows a furniture door, flap or the like to be easily installed on a furniture body of a piece of furniture, in particular on a frame (face frame) of the furniture body.

It is a further object of the invention to provide a use for a furniture hinge.

According to the invention, this object is achieved by claims 1, 15 and 16.

The object of the invention is achieved in that at least a section of the hinge arm or a component connected to the hinge arm has at least one guide section which is connected to a sliding guide of the mounting body works together in such a way that the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm is mounted in the sliding guide so as to be displaceable along a mounting direction and held transversely to the mounting direction and that a movement of the hinge arm against the mounting direction can be blocked when a mounting position is reached. Due to the two-part design of the furniture hinge, a hinge part (mounting body) can be pre-assembled on the furniture body, in particular on a frame of the furniture body, and a hinge part (hinge body) on the furniture door, the flap or the like. The furniture door, flap or the like can then be stopped by a fitter on the furniture body and the guide section of the hinge arm or the component connected to it can be inserted into the sliding guide of the assembly body. The mounting direction is also proportionally not aligned against the acting gravity, preferably transversely or in the direction of the acting gravity. Since the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm is held in the sliding guide transversely to the assembly direction, when the guide section is inserted into the sliding guide, the furniture door, flap or the like is temporarily held on the furniture body. It therefore no longer needs to be stopped by the technician. If the guide section is pushed into the guide up to its final assembly position, it can be blocked directly or indirectly against sliding out of the guide. This means that the hinge arm and the mounting body and thus the furniture door, flap or the like and the furniture body are firmly and pivotably connected to one another. When the assembly position is reached, the installer does not have to hold the weight of the furniture door, flap or the like. This means he has his hands free to block the movement of the hinge arm against the assembly direction using a suitable blocking element. The assembly of the furniture door, flap or the like can therefore be carried out easily and safely by first inserting the guide section into the sliding guide and then blocking the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm against sliding out of the sliding guide. Preferably, a furniture door, flap or the like is held by at least two furniture hinges according to the invention. The at least two guide sections can then be inserted into the at least two sliding guides and the furniture door, flap or the like can thereby be temporarily held. In a second step, the movement of the hinge arms against the assembly direction can then be blocked when they reach their assembly position.

According to the invention, it is provided that the movement of the hinge arm against the assembly direction can be blocked via a blocking element that can be closed without tools. The guide section can first be pushed into the sliding guide and then blocked by means of the blocking element that can be closed without tools. This allows the assembly of the furniture door, flap or the like to be significantly simplified. For example, no screw connections connecting the hinge parts have to be screwed in with a screwdriver, which also significantly reduces assembly time.

Preferably, it can be provided that the blocking element can be opened without tools and the hinge arm can be released from the mounting body. This also makes dismantling the furniture door, flap or the like much easier. After opening the blocking element, the guide section assigned to the hinge arm continues to be guided in the sliding guide of the mounting body, so that the furniture door, flap or the like is held on the furniture body. A fitter therefore has both hands free to grasp the furniture door, flap or the like and pull the guide section out of the sliding guide. This significantly reduces the risk of the furniture door falling and being damaged during dismantling. According to a preferred embodiment variant of the invention, it can be provided that the blocking element is movably mounted and fixes the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm on the mounting body in a closed position and releases it in an open position. To assemble the furniture door, flap or the like, the guide section assigned to the hinge arm must be inserted into the sliding guide and the blocking element must be adjusted into its open position so that the hinge arm can be adjusted into its assembly position. Once this is reached, the blocking element is moved into its closed position and the linear movement of the hinge arm is thus blocked. The two positions of the blocking element are clearly defined so that incorrect assembly can be largely ruled out.

The assembly of the furniture door, flap or the like is thereby further simplified, that the blocking element is in the closed position by at least one spring is held and that the blocking element can be adjusted into the open position against the spring force introduced by the spring. The blocking element is thus adjusted into its closed position without external force. In this closed position, the mounted hinge arm is fixed directly or indirectly to the mounting body. The spring thus ensures that the hinge arm is held securely on the mounting body without external force and does not come loose unintentionally. To assemble or disassemble the furniture door, flap or the like, the blocking element can be easily and quickly adjusted into its open position and the connection between the hinge arm and the assembly body can be released.

Depending on the installation situation of the furniture hinge, good accessibility of the blocking element can be achieved by arranging the blocking element on the hinge arm or on the component connected to the hinge arm or on the mounting body.

The assembly of the furniture door, flap or the like can be simplified in that the blocking element can be adjusted from its closed position to its open position by the insertion movement of the hinge arm along the assembly direction through the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm and that the blocking element is in the assembly position of the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm is adjusted into its closed position by the at least one spring. A fitter therefore only has to align the furniture door with respect to the furniture body and insert the guide section into the sliding guide. At the end of the insertion movement, the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm abuts the blocking element. By exerting a small force directed in the assembly direction on the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm, the blocking element is moved from its closed position to its open position against the acting spring force and thus clears the way so that the hinge arm is moved into its assembly position can be moved. Once this is reached, the blocking element is moved back into its closed position by the acting spring force and the movement of the hinge arm is blocked against the assembly direction. The hinge parts can thus be connected to one another in a continuous assembly movement, in which the guide section is inserted into the sliding guide. The fitter must do this advantageously Do not operate the blocking element separately by hand. This means that he has both hands free to guide the furniture door, flap or the like in such a way that the guide element threads into the sliding guide and is blocked when the assembly position is reached. This is particularly advantageous when assembling a furniture door, flap or the like with two or more furniture hinges. The hinge arms are all adjusted to the same position, preferably to their open position, and then the guide elements are inserted into the assigned sliding guides until at the end of the insertion movement the respective blocking elements block the hinge arms or the components connected to them from sliding out of the sliding guide.

According to the invention, the simple design of the sliding guide is achieved in that the mounting body has a base support with a mounting section, which has side guides arranged laterally to the mounting direction, which each form a sliding guide pointing towards the mounting section in the form of a guide groove and that the hinge arm or the component connected to it has opposite guide sections, which can be mounted in a linearly movable manner in the opposite guide grooves of the mounting body. The guide sections can be easily and smoothly inserted into the sliding guide formed by guide grooves. Due to the spaced arrangement of the guide grooves, torques such as those transmitted to the sliding guide by the weight of the furniture door, flap or the like can be safely absorbed. The guide grooves only allow a sliding movement of the guide section in or against the assembly direction. This means that the hinge arm or the component connected to it is securely held transversely to the assembly direction. The side guides and the guide sections are designed in such a way that sufficiently large forces for permanently supporting the furniture door, flap or the like can be transferred from the guide sections to the side guides and thus to the assembly body and the frame of the piece of furniture.

A simple and secure blocking of the hinge arm in its assembly position can be achieved in that the hinge arm or the component connected to it has a holding area pointing in the assembly direction with a locking recess, that the blocking element has a holding section and that Blocking element engages in the mounting position of the hinge arm with its holding section in the locking recess.

Preferably, it can be provided that the blocking element has a starting slope, which is guided when the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm is inserted into the sliding guide of the mounting body in the adjustment path of the holding area of the hinge arm or the component connected to it and / or that the Holding area of the hinge arm or the component connected to it has a bevel and that the blocking element has a starting bevel, which is guided into the positioning path of the bevel when the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm is inserted into the sliding guide of the mounting body. The starting slope can preferably be arranged on the holding section of the blocking element. Particularly preferably, the blocking element is pressed into its closed position by a spring force. Towards the end of the insertion movement of the guide section into the sliding guide, the holding section is pressed against the starting slope of the blocking element. The holding section slides along the starting slope and pushes it to the side. As a result, the pivotably mounted blocking element is adjusted into its open position, preferably against a spring force. In this open position, the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm can be pushed into its assembly position. This eliminates the pressure on the starting slope and the control element swings back into its closed position. The hinge arm is thus fixed relative to the mounting body. If the holding area of the hinge arm or the component connected to it has a bevel, this bumps against the starting bevel of the blocking element when the guide section is pushed into the sliding guide. The bevel and the starting bevel are preferably aligned in the same way, so that the bevel slides past the starting bevel during further insertion and thereby adjusts the blocking element from its closed position to its open position. When pushed in further, the hinge arm then reaches its assembly position. Preferably, the holding section of the blocking element then reaches the area of the locking recess of the holding area of the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm and engages therein due to an acting spring force, so that the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm is in the assembly position is held.

If it is provided that the blocking element has an actuating section with which the blocking element can be manually adjusted from its closed position to its open position against the acting spring force, then the blocking element can be operated manually. The actuating section is preferably arranged in such a way that it is easily accessible during assembly or disassembly of the furniture door, flap or the like. When assembling the furniture door, flap or the like, the guide section of the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm is first pushed into the sliding guide of the assembly body until it rests on the blocking element. The furniture door, flap or the like is now held automatically. In the further assembly process, an increased force can now be applied to the guide section in the assembly direction in order to move the blocking element into its open position, or the blocking element can be manually adjusted into its open position using the actuating section and the guide section can be pushed into its assembly position. To dismantle the furniture door, flap or the like, the blocking element is manually adjusted into its open position using the actuating section and the guide section is pulled out of its assembly position. This can be done one after the other for several furniture hinges provided on the furniture door, flap or the like, with the guide sections remaining partially inserted into the associated sliding guides on the already opened furniture hinges and being held in this way. This effectively prevents the furniture door, flap or the like from falling to the floor during its dismantling.

Preferably, it can be provided that the blocking element has at least one stop, with which movement of the blocking element in the direction of the acting spring force beyond the closed position is blocked. The blocking element thus remains exactly aligned with respect to the holding area of the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm when inserted into the sliding guide.

An exact positioning of the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm in its assembly position relative to the mounting body can be achieved in that at least one stop section is arranged on the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm, which Insertion movement of the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm into the sliding guide of the mounting body in the mounting direction is blocked when the mounting position is reached. This can ensure that, for example, a holding section of the blocking element is aligned exactly with respect to a locking recess of the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm, so that the holding section can engage in the locking recess and thus block the hinge arm or the component connected to it.

A secure storage of the furniture door, flap or the like with the guide section partially inserted into the linear guide can be achieved in that the holding area or the bevel of the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm in the last movement section of the insertion movement of the hinge arm along the assembly direction, in particular within the last 5% of the insertion movement of the hinge arm hits the starting slope of the blocking element. The guide section can therefore initially be pushed far into the linear guide until the stop occurs. As a result, it is held transversely to the assembly direction and the furniture door, flap or the like is initially temporarily fixed. The assembly position, in which the blocking element blocks the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm, is then achieved by a linear displacement of the guide section along the last movement section of the insertion movement.

In order to be able to align the furniture door, flap or the like with respect to the furniture body at least in one spatial direction, it can be provided that the hinge arm is connected to an intermediate piece, that the intermediate piece is connected to a connecting element which can be fixed to the mounting body, and that the position of the hinge arm relative to the intermediate piece is adjustable at least in one spatial direction and/or that the position of the intermediate piece relative to the connecting element is adjustable at least in one spatial direction.

The easy and precise mounting of the furniture hinge on a frame of the furniture body (face frame) can be made possible in particular by the fact that the mounting body has a mounting surface for contact with the furniture body, in particular on the frame of the furniture body, and that at least one stop protrudes beyond the mounting surface . For assembly, the mounting surface can be attached to the frame be created. The stop can be pressed against the edge of the frame. The mounting body is thus aligned with the frame. This means that the holes through which the mounting body is screwed to the frame are arranged exactly to the frame, for example in the middle of the frame. This can prevent the mounting screws from being screwed in too close to the edge of the frame and tearing out under load. Furthermore, mounting bodies of several furniture hinges provided can be aligned exactly with one another, so that the furniture door, flap or the like can be mounted without torsion.

According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, it can be provided that the hinge cup has a centering area and a mounting area with a pot depth that is reduced compared to the centering area, that a housing with a damper in the assembly area is attached to a bottom of the hinge cup from the outside and that a piston or a cylinder is guided through an opening into the centering area and there into the pivoting area of a joint lever of the hinge arm, which is pivotally mounted in the centering area. The housing with the damper is therefore not arranged inside the hinge cup. This means that when the furniture hinge is installed, the interior of the hinge cup is free, easily accessible and easy to clean. The surface of the hinge cup that is visible when the furniture hinge is installed can be made uniformly, for example from metal. This results in a uniform and high-quality appearance of the furniture hinge while at the same time ensuring high mechanical resistance of the surface. The damper itself is arranged with its housing behind the hinge cup, protected from external mechanical stress and contamination. The damper and the housing can be made inexpensively, for example from plastic that is soft compared to metal. By arranging the housing with the damper on the assembly area with the cup depth reduced compared to the centering area, the external dimensions of the assembly remain the same compared to hinge cups of known furniture hinges, so that the hinge cup can be embedded and fastened in standardized holes on the piece of furniture. To assemble the piece of furniture, the furniture hinge is preferably present as a pre-assembled structural unit, in which the housing with the damper is already attached to the assembly area. The furniture hinge can be attached to the piece of furniture quickly and easily. The centering area enables precise positioning of the hinge cup in the standardized hole and thus on the piece of furniture. Through this, Because a piston or a cylinder of the damper is guided into the centering area and thus into the travel of the articulated lever, the movement of the furniture door can be dampened during the closing process.

The object of the invention relating to the method is achieved in that, in a first method step, at least a section of the hinge arm or a component connected to the hinge arm is partially inserted along a mounting direction into a sliding guide of the mounting body until the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm a blocking element abuts, wherein the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm is held in the partially inserted position transversely to the assembly direction by the sliding guide, so that in a second method step when the section of the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm is pushed in further, a closing force of the blocking element overcome and the blocking element is adjusted into an open position and that when an assembly position of the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm is reached, the blocking element is adjusted into its closed position by an acting spring force and a movement of the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm counterclockwise Mounting direction blocked. After the first process step, the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm is held transversely to the assembly direction. The mounting direction is preferably not aligned against the force of gravity. The furniture door, flap or the like is thus provisionally fixed to the furniture body after the first procedural step. When the section of the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm is pushed in further, it is moved into the effective range of the blocking element and thereby blocked. The hinge arm or the component connected to it is now secured against being pulled out of the sliding guide. A fitter can therefore first connect one or more furniture hinge parts to one another in such a way that the furniture door, flap or the like is secured to the furniture body to prevent it from falling. This first connection step is carried out by simply inserting a section of the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm into a sliding guide, which can also be easily carried out with several furniture hinges arranged on the furniture door, flap or the like. The fitter now has both hands free to connect the hinge arm or in a second connection step to move the component connected to the hinge arm into its assembly position and thus to secure the hinge arm or the component connected to it against sliding out of the sliding guide. The assembly direction is the same for both connection steps, so that the assembly of the furniture door, flap or the like can be carried out in a continuous sequence of movements.

Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of a piece of furniture 2 with an articulated furniture door 5. It is conceivable to provide a flap or another piece of furniture that is foldably connected to the piece of furniture 2 instead of the furniture door 5. The furniture door 5 is attached to a frame 4 of a furniture body 3 with two furniture hinges 1. Each furniture hinge 1 is assigned a mounting body 6 and a hinge body 7. The hinge body 7 is connected to the furniture door 5. The mounting body 6 is fixed to the frame 4. The mounting body 6 is attached to the front side of the frame 4. Such a form of assembly is also known as a face frame and is used particularly in the US market. The furniture hinges 1 make it possible to open and close the furniture door 5 in a pivoting movement.

A coordinate system 8 shows, based on the orientation of the piece of furniture 3, three spatial directions, namely an x-direction 8.1, a y-direction 8.2 and a z-direction 8.3. The spatial directions indicate possible adjustment directions of the furniture door 5, as made possible by the furniture hinges 1.

Fig. 2 shows an exploded view of the mounting body 6 for attaching the furniture hinge 1 to the furniture body 3. A base support 10 and a blocking element 20 are assigned to the mounting body 6.

The base support 10 serves to attach the mounting body 6 to the in Fig. 1 shown piece of furniture 2. It is designed as a stamped part, in particular as a sheet metal stamped part. A mounting section 11 of the mounting body 6 is plate-shaped. It has a recess 12. Facing away from the viewer, the base support 10 forms a mounting surface 10.1 in the area of the mounting section 11. The mounting surface 10.1 is delimited by two inner stops 13 and by two outer stops 14, which face each other in a mounting direction 9.1 shown by an arrow. The stops 13, 14 are designed as angled tabs molded onto the mounting section 11. They are aligned in such a way that they protrude beyond the mounting surface 10.1.

Two side guides 15 are formed on the side and opposite each other on the mounting section 11 of the base support 10. The side guides 15 are arranged along the edges of the mounting section 11 which are arranged transversely to the mounting direction 9.1. They are angled towards the mounting section 11 and directed away from the mounting surface 10.1. At the end, the side guides 15 are angled in such a way that the final edges of the oppositely arranged side guides 15 face each other. The side guides 15 thus each form a side section 15.1 and a cover section 15.2 formed thereon, which, together with the mounting section 11, each comprise a guide groove 15.4. The guide grooves 15.4 of opposite side guides 15 face each other. They form a sliding guide 15.3. The sliding guide 15.3 is aligned in the assembly direction 9.1.

A holding attachment 16 is attached to the mounting section 11 via a step 16.1. The holding projection 16 is formed onto the mounting section 11 outside the area delimited by the stops 13, 14. Two retaining webs 17 are formed laterally on the retaining attachment 16. The holding webs 17 are designed as tabs that are angled relative to the holding projection 16. The holding webs 17 are preferably in one Arranged at an angle of 90 ° relative to the holding attachment 16. They are angled in the direction facing away from the mounting surface 10.1. The surface normals of the holding webs 17 are aligned transversely to the mounting direction 9.1. Each of the retaining webs 17 is penetrated by an axle bore 17.1. The axle bores 17.1 of the oppositely arranged holding webs 17 are aligned with one another. In the area between the holding webs 17, knob-shaped spring guides 18 are formed on the edge of the holding attachment 16.

The blocking element 20 is bow-shaped. It has a flat actuation section 21, onto which laterally angled joint sections 22 are formed. An axle mount 22.1 is introduced in the form of a hole into the joint sections 22. The axle mounts 22.1 are aligned with one another. The joint sections 22 are aligned in such a way that, when the mounting body 6 is mounted, they are arranged laterally and at a small distance from the holding webs 17 of the base support 10. The axle mounts 22.1 are then aligned with the axle bores 17.1 of the retaining webs 17. Covered or partially covered by the actuating section 21 are stops 24 and a holding section 23, as shown in Fig. 5 is shown, formed onto the actuating section 21. The stops 24 and the holding section 23 are arranged on the edge of the actuating section 21 which is aligned opposite to the mounting direction 9.1. They are tab-shaped and angled relative to the actuating section 21 in the direction of the holding attachment 16. The actuating section 21 forms an actuating side 21.1 on its side facing away from the holding projection 16 and a spring contact surface 21.2 on the opposite side. To improve the feel, the actuation side 21.1 has a structured surface.

An axis 26 is also assigned to the mounting body 6. The axis 26 has stops at the ends in the form of widenings 26.1. At least one of the expansions 26.1 is only attached during the assembly of the mounting body 6.

Two springs 25 are assigned to the blocking element 20. The springs 25 each have a winding area 25.1, which is connected to a spring clip 25.3. The ends of the springs 25 are designed as legs 25.2. The legs 25.2 of the springs 25 are aligned in the direction of the spring contact surface 21.1 of the blocking element 20 and the spring clips 25.3 in the direction of the surface of the holding attachment 16.

Fig. 3 shows the in Fig. 2 shown assembled mounting body 6 in a top view. The same components are included as before Fig. 2 introduced. The blocking element 20 is pivotally connected to the base support 10 of the mounting body 6 by means of the axis 26. This is how clear Fig. 4 can be seen, the joint sections 22 are arranged laterally outside the holding webs 17 and the axle 26 is through the now aligned axle mounts 22.1 and axle bores 17.1, as shown in Fig. 2 shown are inserted. At the end, the expansions 26.1 are formed onto the axle 26 so that it cannot be accidentally pushed out of the axle bores 17.1 and axle mounts 22.1. The axis 26 thus forms an axis of rotation for the blocking element 20. This is arranged in the assembly direction 9.1 in an extension of the sliding guide 15.3. The springs 25 are between the in Fig. 2 shown spring contact surface 21.2 of the actuating section 21 and the opposite side of the holding projection 16 of the base support 10 used prestressed. You thus press the blocking element 20 into its closed position. In this closed position, the blocking element 20 lies with its in Fig. 2 shown stops 24 on the holding attachment 16.

With reference to the description too Fig. 3 shows Fig. 4 the in Fig. 3 Mounting body 6 shown in a perspective view. In this perspective, the arrangement of the springs 25 can be clearly seen. The spring clips 25.3 rest on the side of the holding attachment 16 facing the blocking element 20. They are guided laterally by the spring guides 18 formed on the holding attachment 16. The legs 25.2 of the springs 25 rest on the spring contact surface 21.2 of the actuating section 21 of the blocking element 20. The blocking element 20 is moved into its closed position by the pretensioning of the springs 25.

Fig. 5 shows the in Fig. 3 Mounting body 6 shown in a side sectional view. The cutting process follows in Fig. 3 Cutting line marked with V. The base support 10 has the mounting surface 10.1 in its mounting section 11, with which the mounting body 6 rests against the furniture body 3 when the furniture hinge 1 is mounted. The inner and outer stops 13, 14 are molded onto the mounting section 11 and protrude beyond the mounting surface 10.1. The mounting surface 10.1 is thus limited by the stops 13, 14. The mounting body 6 can thus be placed with the mounting surface 10.1 on the frame 4 of a furniture body 3 and aligned with respect to it with the help of at least two of the stops 13, 14. The side guides 15 are formed laterally on the base support 10. The guide grooves 15.4 are aligned in the direction of the mounting section 11. Together with the opposite side guides 15 and the mounting section 11, the guide grooves 15.4 form a sliding guide 15.3. This is aligned in the assembly direction 9.1. The assembly section 11 merges into the holding section 16 via the gradation 16.1. This is aligned parallel to the mounting section 11. The blocking element 20 is pivotally connected to the holding webs 17 of the base support 10 by means of the axis 26. For this purpose the axis is 26, as in Fig. 3 described, inserted through the axle bores 17.1 of the oppositely arranged holding webs 17 and the axle receptacles 22.1, which are formed into the joint sections 22 of the blocking element 20. The springs 25 are each plugged onto the axis 26 with their winding area 25.1. The legs 25.2 of the springs 25 rest on the spring contact surface 21.2 of the blocking element 20. The spring clips 25.3 rest on the retaining projection 16. They are guided laterally by the spring guides 18 formed on the holding attachment 16. The springs 25 are pretensioned. As a result, a torque directed against an actuation direction 9.2 indicated by an arrow is transmitted to the blocking element 20. The blocking element 20 is thereby adjusted and held about its axis of rotation formed by the axis 26 into the closed position shown. In this closed position, the stops 24 rest against the holding attachment 16. The gradation 16.1 ensures that the axis of rotation formed by the axis 26 is arranged in an extension of the sliding guide 15.3. The stops 24 are designed in such a way that a starting bevel 23.1, which is attached to the end of the holding section 23 of the blocking element 20, is arranged at the level of the sliding guide 15.3 and aligned towards it. By pressing on the actuation side 21.1, the blocking element 20 can be adjusted from its closed position shown into an open position against the spring force in accordance with the actuation direction 9.1.

Fig. 6 shows an exploded view of a hinge body 7 with a hinge cup 30 for attaching the furniture hinge 1 to a furniture door 5, flap or similar. The hinge body 7 is also assigned a hinge arm 40 and, in this case, an intermediate part 80 and a connecting element 50.

As in Fig. 1 shown, the hinge cup 30 can be inserted into a hole in the furniture door 5 and screwed to the furniture door 5, flap or the like with screws which are guided through side flanges 33 formed on the side of the hinge cup 30. For this purpose, the side flanges 33 are penetrated by mounting holes 33.1. A centering area 31, starting from an outer contact surface 32, forms a recess which extends into a mounting area 34, which is also designed as a recess (see Fig. 9 ) of the hinge cup 30 passes. Towards the furniture door 5, the hinge cup 30 is closed off in the assembly area 34 by a cover 37. Locking recesses in the form of openings are made in the cover 37. Locking elements 73 are locked into the locking recesses. The locking elements 73 are part of one in the Fig. 9 shown housing 70 for receiving a damper 60. The damper 60 is thus arranged outside the hinge cup 30 below the cover 37 of the mounting area 34. In order to create sufficient space to accommodate the damper 60, the cover 37 has an indentation 37.1 along which the damper 60 is arranged.

A section of the damper 60 is inserted into the centering region 31 through an opening 35. In the exemplary embodiment shown, a movably mounted cylinder 61 of a linear damper is inserted into the centering region 31. The cylinder 61 has a slope 62 at the end. A locking element 36 is rotatably mounted in the cover 37. With the help of the locking element 36, the damper 60 can be blocked in a retracted position so that the slope 62 is not guided into the centering area 31.

A second spring 38 is also arranged outside the hinge cup 30. Its free ends 38.2 are guided through the opening 35 into the centering area 31. The second spring 38, designed as a leg spring, has a winding 38.3 and a second spring clip 38.1.

The centering area 31 is formed by pot side walls 31.2, a rounded section 31.4 and a pot bottom 31.1. Joint receptacles 31.3 in the form of holes are embedded in the opposite pot side walls 31.2. The Joint receptacles 31.3 are assigned a joint pin 39 with end stop sections 39.1. A stop section 39.1 is only formed on the hinge pin 39 when the hinge body 7 is assembled.

The hinge arm 40 has an articulated lever 43. At the end and facing the hinge cup 30, a bolt receptacle 41 is formed onto the articulated lever 43, as shown in more detail in Fig. 9 is shown. The bolt receptacle 41 is designed as a cylindrically curved end region of the articulated lever 43. In the area of the bolt receptacle 41, two guide curves 42 are arranged on the articulated lever 43, opposite one another.

The articulated lever 43 is connected in one piece to a fastening section 44 of the hinge arm 40. It is also conceivable to design the articulated lever 43 and the fastening section 44 separately and to connect them to one another, for example with the help of fasteners. The fastening section 44 is preferably designed as a stamped part. It has side regions 44.2 that are angled laterally towards the connecting element 50. These form guide surfaces 41.1 aligned in the direction of the longitudinal extent of the hinge arm 40. A threaded receptacle 45 and a recess 46 are introduced into the fastening section 44. An extension piece 44.3 is formed onto the fastening section 44 via a gradation. The plane of the extension piece 44.3 is arranged offset in the direction of the intermediate part 80 relative to the plane of the fastening section 44. The extension piece 44.3 is pierced by an X-eccentric guide 47 in the form of an elongated hole.

Between the hinge arm 40 and the connecting element 50, the intermediate part 80 is arranged and aligned for assembly with the hinge arm 40 and the connecting element 50. The intermediate part 80 has a flat contact section 81, onto which a flat extension 82 is formed. The plane of the extension 82 is offset from the plane of the contact section 81 in the direction of the hinge arm 40. The approach 82 is arranged opposite the extension piece 44.3 of the hinge arm 40. In the present case, the approach 82 is connected to the contact section 81 by means of three webs 81.2 aligned towards the hinge arm 40. Between the webs 81.2, the contact section 81 each has an extension in the form of guide tabs 81.1.

An X-eccentric bearing 83 in the form of a hole is inserted into the approach 82, aligned with the X-eccentric guide 47. Opposite the recess 46 of the hinge arm 40, a Y-eccentric guide 84 in the form of an elongated hole and a through opening 86 are formed in the contact section 81. Opposite the Y-eccentric guide 84, a Y-guide cam 89 is attached to the contact section 81. The Y-guide cam 89 is guided through the contact section 81 and rises above the surface of the contact section 81 in the direction of the connecting element 50. Side tabs are attached to the contact section 81 on the side. The side tabs 85 are angled relative to the contact section 81 and aligned in the direction of the hinge arm 40. Opposite the approach 82, a fastening web 87 is formed on the contact section 81. The fastening web 87 rises in the direction of the hinge arm 40 over the surface of the contact section 81. Its upper surface is arranged at the level of the extension 82 of the intermediate part 80. An adjusting screw receptacle 88 in the form of a slot is incorporated into the surface of the fastening web 87, starting from its outer edge. The adjusting screw receptacle 88 is arranged opposite the threaded receptacle 45 of the hinge arm 40.

The connecting element 50 has a flat base body 51. In the assembly direction 9.1, an extension of the base body 51 forms a holding area 51.1. In the area of the front end of the holding area 51.1, based on the mounting direction 9.1, this is penetrated by a locking recess 51.2. The front edge of the holding area 51.1 has a bevel 51.3. This is aligned in the assembly direction 9.1 and towards the hinge arm 40. To the side of the holding area 51.1 and set back to its front edge, 2 outer holding tabs 55 are molded onto the base body 51. The outer retaining tabs 55 are bent from the plane of the base body 51 in the direction of the hinge arm 40 in such a way that they each encompass an outer retaining groove 55.1 which is open against the mounting direction 9.1. Opposite the outer holding tabs 55, inner holding tabs 54 are formed on the edge of the base body 51. The inner retaining tabs 54 are designed in mirror image to the outer retaining tabs 55, so that an inner retaining groove 54.1 enclosed by the inner retaining tabs 54 is aligned in the direction of the opposite outer retaining groove 55.1 of the outer retaining tabs 55. A linear guide aligned transversely to the mounting direction 9.1 is thus formed by the holding tabs 54, 55. The intermediate part 80 can be used with its opposite The edge aligned with the mounting direction 9.1 is inserted into the inner holding grooves 54.1 and with its edges of the guide tabs 81.1 aligned in the mounting direction 9.1 into the outer holding grooves 55.1. The intermediate part 80 can thus be displaced transversely to the mounting direction 9.1 and in the plane of the contact section 81, while it is held in the remaining directions by the retaining tabs 54, 55 or the base body 51 of the connecting element 50. The Y-guide cam 89 is guided in a Y-guide elongated hole 58 of the connecting element 50.

A guide section 52 is formed laterally opposite each other on the base body 51 of the connecting element 50. The guide sections 52 are flat. They are aligned along their longitudinal extent in the mounting direction 9.1. The front ends of the guide sections 52, based on the mounting direction 9.1, are arranged set back relative to the front end of the holding area 51.1, as shown in more detail Fig. 7 can be seen. The side edges of the guide sections 52 arranged transversely to the mounting direction 9.1 form guide edges 52.3. The guide sections 52 taper towards the front end. As a result, an outward-pointing threading bevel 52.1 is formed on the guide sections 52 in an extension of the guide edges 52.3. A stop section 52.2 is formed onto the guide sections 52 in the opposite direction to the direction of movement 9.1 and opposite the threading bevels 52.1. These limit the guide edges 52.3.

A breakthrough 53 is introduced into the base body 51. The opening 53 is arranged opposite the through opening 86 of the intermediate part 80 and thus the recess 46 of the hinge arm 40. A Y-eccentric bearing 56 is introduced into the base body 51 in the form of a hole on the side of the opening 53 in the base body 51. The Y-eccentric bearing 56 is arranged in alignment with the Y-eccentric guide 84 of the intermediate part 80. On the opposite side of the opening 53, the base body 51 is penetrated by the Y-guide elongated hole 58. The Y-guide elongated hole 58 is arranged opposite the Y-guide cam 89 of the intermediate part 80.

The hinge body 7 also has an adjusting screw 90 with an adjusting screw tool holder 90.1, a thread 90.2, a groove 90.3 and a closure assigned to 90.4. The adjusting screw 90 is designed in such a way that its thread 90.2 can be screwed into the threaded receptacle 45 of the hinge arm 40. The groove 90.3 then engages in the adjusting screw receptacle 88 of the intermediate part 80. Axially, the mounted adjusting screw 90 is held on the fastening web 87 of the intermediate part 80 by the end 90.4, which has an enlarged diameter compared to the groove.

An X-eccentric 91 is assigned to the hinge body 7. The X eccentric 91 has an X tool holder 91.1, an X guide area 91.2 and an X eccentric cam 91.3. The X eccentric cam 91.3 is arranged outside the central axis of the X guide area 91.2. The X-eccentric 91 is aligned with the X-eccentric guide 47 of the hinge arm 40 and the X-eccentric bearing 83 of the intermediate part 80. Once installed, the X-eccentric cam 91.3 engages in the X-eccentric bearing 83. The X-guide area 91.2 is guided in the X-eccentric guide 47 of the hinge arm 40.

The hinge body 7 is also assigned a Y eccentric 92, the structure of which corresponds to the X eccentric 91. It therefore has a Y tool holder 92.1, a Y guide area 92.2 and a Y eccentric cam 92.3. The Y eccentric cam 92.3 is arranged outside the central axis of the Y guide area 92.2. The Y eccentric 92 is aligned with the Y eccentric guide 84 of the intermediate part 80 and the Y eccentric bearing 56 of the connecting element 50. When installed, the Y eccentric cam 92.3 engages in the Y eccentric bearing 56. The Y-guide area 92.2 is guided in the Y-eccentric guide 84 of the intermediate part 80.

Fig. 7 shows the in Fig. 6 shown assembled hinge body 7 in a top view. In Fig. 8 is the one in Fig. 7 Hinge body 7 shown shown in a perspective view, while Fig. 9 the in Fig. 7 shown hinge body 7 shows in a side sectional view. The cut runs along an in Fig. 7 Cutting line marked IX.

Like in particular Fig. 9 As can be seen, the articulated lever 43 is guided into the centering area 31 of the hinge cup 30 and is articulated there. This is what the in Fig. 6 shown joint bolts 39 guided through the joint receptacles 31.3 of the pot side walls 31.2 of the centering area 31 and the bolt receptacle 41 of the joint lever 43 and axially through end stop sections 39.1 stipulated how this in particular Fig. 8 can be seen. The free ends 38.2 of the second spring 38 rest on the guide curves 42 on the articulated lever 43 and transmit a spring force to them. The guide curves 42 are designed in such a way that the second spring 38 supports an opening movement from a certain opening angle of the furniture hinge 1 and a closing movement of the furniture hinge 1 and thus the connected furniture door 5, flap or the like from a certain closing angle of the furniture hinge 1. How clear in Fig. 9 shown, the damper 60 is inserted with the slope 62 of its cylinder 61 into the centering area 31 and thus into the travel of the articulated lever 43. Opposite, the damper 60 is supported on the housing 70 with a piston 63. When the furniture hinge 1 is closed, the articulated lever 43 rests against the bevel 62 of the damper 60 and presses it together. As a result, the closing movement of the furniture hinge 1 is dampened in its last movement section. The movement of the damper 60 can be controlled by means of the 7 and 8 Locking element 36 shown can be blocked in its inserted position. This results in a non-damped furniture hinge 1.

The fastening section 44 of the hinge arm 40 is connected to the intermediate part 80, as shown in more detail in Fig. 9 is shown. The intermediate part 80 is in turn connected to the connecting element 50. The intermediate part 80 is mounted on the connecting element 50 in a linearly adjustable manner transversely to the mounting direction 9.1, as is the case Figure 6 is described.

How clear Fig. 9 As can be seen, the adjusting screw 90 is screwed with its thread 90.2 into the threaded receptacle 45 of the hinge arm 40. It is mounted with its groove 90.3 in the adjusting screw receptacle 88. The intermediate part 80 is held axially by the adjusting screw 90 due to the end 90.4, which is wider in diameter compared to the groove 90.3. The X-eccentric 91 is guided with its X-guide area 91.2 laterally in the X-eccentric guide 47 of the hinge arm 40 and is inserted with its eccentrically arranged The Y-eccentric 92 is correspondingly and not shown in section with its Y-guide area 92.2 guided laterally in the Y-eccentric guide 84 of the intermediate part 80 and with its Y-eccentric cam 92.3 in the in Fig. 6 shown Y eccentric bearing 56 of the connecting element 50 inserted. The Y tool holder 92.1 is in the recess 46 Fastening section 44 of the hinge arm 40 accessible, as shown in particular Fig. 7 can be seen.

The adjusting screw 90 and the two eccentrics 91, 92 serve to align the assembled furniture door 5 on the furniture body 3. The distance between the fastening section 44 of the hinge arm 40 and the intermediate part 80 can be changed using the adjusting screw 90 and the furniture door 5 can thus be moved along the z -Axis 8.3, like this one Fig. 1 shown can be adjusted. The X-eccentric 91 enables the mounted furniture door 5 to be adjusted along the in Fig. 1 x-axis shown 8.1. By turning the X eccentric 91, the hinge arm 40 is displaced relative to the intermediate part 80 in the x direction 8.1. For this purpose, the intermediate part 80 is guided laterally through the guide surfaces 44.1 of the side regions 44.2 of the fastening section 44 of the hinge arm 40, on which the side tabs 85 and the extension 82 of the intermediate part 80 rest (see Fig. 6 ). The Y eccentric 92 allows the furniture door 5 to be aligned along the in Fig. 1 shown y-axis 8.2. By rotating the Y eccentric 92, the intermediate part 80 and thus the hinge arm 40 connected to the intermediate part in a blocked manner in the y direction is adjusted linearly relative to the connecting element 50 along the y axis 8.2. The intermediate part moves guided by the holding grooves 54.1, 55.1 formed by the holding tabs 54, 55, as also shown in Fig. 6 are shown. Additional guidance is achieved by the Y-guide cam 89 of the intermediate part 80, which is linearly guided in the Y-guide elongated hole 58 of the connecting element 50.

Like that Fig. 7 and 9 As can be seen, in the assembly direction 9.1, the holding area 51.1 of the base body 51 of the connecting element 50 with its bevel 51.3 forms the frontmost area of the hinge body 7.

As especially in the in Fig. 8 As can be seen in the selected view, the second spring 38 is arranged outside the hinge cup 30. She is, as in Fig. 7 shown, with their free ends 38.2 guided through the opening 35 into the centering area 31 of the hinge cup 30 and there to the guide curves 42 of the hinge arm 40. The damper 60 is also arranged with its housing 70 below the mounting area 34 of the hinge cup 30 and guided through the opening 35 into the centering area 31. In the sectional view in Fig. 9 the storage of the second spring 38 on the housing 70 is shown. The housing 70 forms towards its housing base 71 a spring receptacle 72 on the side facing away from the hinge arm 40. The second spring clip 38.1 of the second spring 38 is held in the spring receptacle 72.

Like in particular Fig. 9 shown, the centering area 31 forms a recess starting from the outer contact surface 32. The assembly area 34 also forms such a recess. The pot depth in the assembly area 34 is smaller than in the centering area 41. The assembly area 34 is closed by a cover 37. The damper 60 is attached to the cover 37 of the mounting area 34 from the outside. For this purpose, the damper 60 is stored in the housing 70. The housing 70 is by means of the in Fig. 6 Locking elements 73 shown are attached to the cover 37 of the mounting area 34. The housing base 71 is preferably arranged in the same plane as the pot base 31.1 of the centering region 31.

Fig. 10 shows a perspective view of the hinge body 7 and the mounting body 6 in a position aligned with each other. The hinge body 7 is opened and held in this position by the second spring 38. The holding area 51.1 of the connecting element 50 is aligned in the direction of the blocking element 20 of the mounting body 6. The guide sections 52 of the connecting element 50 protrude laterally beyond the fastening section 44 of the hinge arm 40. The hinge body 7 can thus be inserted with its guide sections 52 along the mounting direction 9.1 into the sliding guide 15.3 of the mounting body 6. The sliding guide 15.3 is formed by the guide grooves 15.4, as formed by the side guides 15 arranged laterally on the mounting section 11 of the base support 10 of the mounting body 6. When the connecting element 50 is inserted into the sliding guide 15.3, the guide edges 52.3 of the guide sections 52 slide along the inner surfaces of the side sections 15.1 of the side guides 15. The hinge body 7 can therefore only be adjusted in or against the mounting direction 9.1 when the guide sections 52 are inserted into the sliding guide 15.3. The threading bevels 52.1 make it easier to insert the guide sections 52 into the guide grooves 15.4.

In a first assembly step, the connecting element 50 is pushed into the sliding guide 15.3 until the bevel 51.3 of the holding area 51.1 touches the in Figure 5 shown starting slope 23.1 of the blocking element 20 abuts. The Hinge body 7 is now held on the mounting body 6 transversely to the mounting direction 9.1. When the connecting element 50 is pushed further into the sliding guide 15.3, the blocking element 20 is moved from its position by the bevel 51.3 sliding past the starting bevel 23.1 Figure 10 The closing position shown is adjusted into an open position along the actuation direction 9.2. The blocking element 20 pivots about the axis of rotation formed by the axis 26 against the spring force introduced by the two springs 25. When the connecting element 50 is moved further in the assembly direction 9.1, the locking recess 51.2 reaches the area of the in Figure 5 shown holding section 23. The springs 25 now move the blocking element 20 back into its closed position. As a result, the hinge body 7 is also blocked in or against the mounting direction 9.1. When the assembly position is reached, in which the locking recess 51.2 is arranged relative to the holding section 23 of the blocking element 20, the stop sections 52.2 attached laterally to the guide sections 52 rest on the front side guides 15.1 of the sliding guide 15.3. As a result, an exact alignment of the hinge body 7 relative to the mounting body 6 is achieved in the assembly position.

Fig. 11 shows a perspective view of the assembled furniture hinge 1st in Fig. 12 is that in Fig. 11 Furniture hinge 1 shown shown in a top view. Fig. 13 shows that in Fig. 11 Furniture hinge 1 shown in a side sectional view. The cutting process is in Fig. 12 marked and marked XIII.

The connecting element 50, as a component connected to the hinge arm 40, is pushed into the sliding guide 15.3 of the mounting body 6 up to its assembly position. The connecting element 50 is held transversely to the mounting direction 9.1 by the side guides 15. In the assembly direction 9.1, the stop sections 52.2 rest on the side guides 15 facing away from the blocking element 20. Contrary to the mounting direction 9.1, the connecting element 50 is blocked by the engagement of the holding section 23 of the blocking element 20 in the locking recess 51.2 of the holding area 51.1 of the connecting element 50, as can be seen in particular from the sectional view in Figure 13 can be removed. The blocking element 20 is held in its closed position by the two springs 25. The hinge body 7 is thus fixed to the mounting body 6.

In order to release the hinge body 7 from the mounting body 6, the blocking element 20 can be adjusted into its open position by pressing on the actuation side 21.1 of its actuation section 21 against the spring force introduced by the springs 25. The blocking element 20 is pivoted about the axis 26 in accordance with the actuation direction 9.2. The holding section 23 of the blocking element 20 is thus brought out of engagement with the locking recess 51.2 of the holding area 51.1 of the connecting element 50. The connecting element 50 can now be pulled out of the sliding guide 15.3 against the mounting direction 9.1.

Fig. 14 in a side view the furniture hinge 1 mounted on a piece of furniture 2. The hinge cup 40 is in a hole in the Figure 1 furniture door 5 shown and screwed to the side of the side flanges 33 on the furniture door 5. The mounting body 6 is attached to the frame 4 of the piece of furniture 2. For this purpose, the mounting body 6 lies with its mounting surface 10.1 on the frame 4. The outer stop 14 rests on the edge of the frame 4. As a result, the position of the mounting body 6 relative to the frame 4 is fixed. The mounting body 6 is attached to the frame 4 by means of a screw connection 19 indicated by a dashed line. For this purpose, a screw (not shown) is guided through the recess 12 of the base support 10.

To assemble the furniture door 5, the assembly body 6 and the hinge body 7 are present separately. Both are pre-assembled. First, the mounting body 6 is aligned with the outer stop 14 on the frame 4. The mounting body 6 is then screwed onto the frame 4. The hinge cup 30 is inserted into the hole in the furniture door 5, aligned and screwed onto the furniture door 5. If there are several furniture hinges 1, these are installed accordingly. The furniture hinge(s) 1 are folded into their open position. The furniture door 5 is then held against the opening of the furniture body 2 and aligned so that the guide sections 52 of the respective connecting element 50 are aligned with the sliding guide 15.2 arranged on the mounting body 6. The furniture door 5 is now pushed towards the furniture body 2. The guide sections 52 thread into the sliding guide 15.3. Thanks to the threading bevels 52.1, the guide sections 52 can also be attached to several on the furniture door 5 The furniture hinges 1 provided can be easily and simultaneously threaded into the sliding guides 15.2.

First, the guide sections 52 are pushed into the sliding guide 15.3 until the holding area 51.1 of the connecting element 50 abuts the holding section 23 of the blocking element 20. The connecting element 50 is now held transversely to the mounting direction 9.1 in the sliding guide 15.3. The sliding guide 15.3 is aligned so that the connecting element 50 does not slide out of the sliding guide 15.3 due to the weight. A fitter can thus release the furniture door 5 with the connecting element 50 partially inserted without it falling down. In a further step, the connecting element 50 is pushed further into the sliding guide 15.3 in the assembly direction 9.1. This can be done, for example, by applying appropriate pressure on the furniture door 5. The bevel 51.3 at the front end of the holding area 51.1 thereby slides past the starting bevel 23.1 of the blocking element 20, whereby the blocking element 20 is adjusted into its open position. The connecting element 50 can now be pushed into the sliding guide 15.3 until the final assembly position is reached. In this assembly position, the stop sections 52.2 of the guide sections 52 rest on the front side guides 15 of the base support 10. The locking recess 51.2 in the holding area 51.1 of the connecting element 50 is arranged in the area of the holding section 23 of the blocking element 20. The blocking element 20 is therefore brought into its position by the springs 25 Fig. 14 shown closed position and the holding section 23 brought into engagement with the locking recess 51.2 of the connecting element 50. This blocks movement of the hinge body 7 in or against the mounting direction 9.1. For dismantling, the blocking element 20 is manually adjusted into its open position. The connecting element 50 can now be pulled out of its assembly position against the assembly direction 9.1. The connecting element 50 is still held transversely to the mounting direction 9.1 by the sliding guide 15.3.
