The present invention relates to a hinge mechanism and particularly relates to an overhead door hinge mechanism.
A hinge is a mechanical device used for connecting two solid objects and allowing the relative rotation thereof, and an overhead door hinge is mainly used in a joint of a box body or cabinet body provided with a cover door and can realize closing and opening of the cover door on the box body.
At present, many overhead door hinges are simple door hinges, and each hinge is provided with two rotating hinge pieces which are in shaft connection. Such hinges can only perform a simple function of rotating and opening a cover door and cannot keep the position and angle of the cover door, and collision easily occurs in the opening and closing process. For some cabinet bodies needing upturned cover doors, the hinge is required to provide stable and good elastic support for the cover door to keep the upturned door in an open state. For damping hinges or spring hinges on the market, the component mainly for keeping the turning angle is a spring or damping element easy to wear, so the service life is short. For cover doors of large cabinet bodies, in case of lack of a good and stable opening supporting mechanism, it is difficult to open and close the cover door and the cabinet body. Therefore, in view of the above problems, an overhead door hinge mechanism with reasonable structure and stable cover door opening and closing is required.
The purpose of the present invention is to provide an overhead door hinge mechanism to solve problems proposed in the above background art of the invention.
