GN 7243

The multiple-joint hinge GN 7243 is installed on the inside of doors, flaps and hatches to save space and ensure protection against vandalism. The hinge has a maximum opening angle of 120°, allowing for easy accessibility and making them suitable for use with medium-thick doors.

Use of this hinge type leaves housing exteriors free of attachments that do not match the design or that should be avoided entirely in the interests of fast and easy cleaning.

Multiple-joint hinges are generally used in pairs. For higher loads, e.g. from large doors, these can be supplemented with additional hinges. Four reinforced washers are supplied, which can be used with fastening screws of thread size M6.

• other fastening flanges

• other opening angles

• other max. wall thicknesses

• other lifting motion

 

The multiple-joint hinges can be adjusted in three planes during installation. For example, this allows adjustment for tolerances or establishing of required compressive forces for seals.

Two planes can be adjusted via parallel or perpendicular slots in the fastening flanges. In the third plane, position corrections can be made using the Stainless Steel-Spacer plates GN 7247.2 .

Stainless Steel-Plates with tapped holes GN 7247.4  as well as Stainless Steel-Plates with threaded studs GN 7247.6 are also available for fastening the hinges. The latter can be welded on or inserted through the wall from the outside and fastened in place. The holes d₂ receive tensioning or positioning pins, making it easy to position the hinge. This also prevents unintended turning or slipping under load. The pins cannot be removed for subsequent adjustment.

Doors, flaps and hatches can be inset, flush or mitered. The maximum wall thicknesses and bend sizes for sheet metal constructions given below arise from the respective installation type.
