Abstract (en)

[origin: US2007157429A1] Damping device ( 30 ) for hinges ( 10 ) for the pivotable articulation of door leaves ( 12 ) or door flaps on the carcass of pieces of furniture, in which the hinge has respectively a supporting wall mounting part ( 18 ) which can be fixed on the supporting wall ( 14 ) and a door leaf mounting part ( 24 ) which is pivotably coupled via a linkage mechanism ( 20; 22 ) to the supporting wall mounting part and can be fixed on the inner face of the door leaf or flap, and which is preferably constructed as a cup part which is countersunk and engages in a recess in the door leaf or flap and has a laterally projecting fixing flange which bears on the inner face of the door leaf. The damping device ( 30 ) has a damper housing which is provided on the door leaf mounting part ( 24 ) and which is provided in the cavity thereof with a fluid or gaseous damping medium and a resistance element which is movable relative to the damping medium and is coupled to an actuating element ( 39 ) which extends out of the housing. At least during part of the pivoting movement of the mounting parts ( 18, 24 ) relative to one another the actuating element is in engaged connection directly or indirectly with the supporting wall mounting part ( 18 ) and transmits to the resistance element the relative movement of the mounting parts as they pivot. The damper housing ( 32 ) is a separate component which is provided with laterally projecting fixing flanges ( 38, 46 ) which can be fixed on the fixing flanges of the door leaf mounting part ( 24 ).
