Damping hinge and functional entity with a damping hinge

A damping hinge, comprising:

• a first hinge lever, which comprises at a first end a first lever sleeve and at a second end a first mounting part, which is connected or connectable to a first installation part or directly to a first separating element;
• a second hinge lever, which is rotatable about a hinge axis relative to the first hinge lever, and which comprises at a first end a second lever sleeve and at a second end a second mounting part, which is connected or connectable to a second installation part or directly to a second separating element;
• a hinge shaft, which is arranged in the first lever sleeve and the second lever sleeve coaxially aligned with the hinge axis;
• and
• a damping device with an actuating element which can be actuated by a mutual rotation of the two hinge levers, wherein,
• the hinge shaft is traversed by a bearing channel;
• in the second lever sleeve at least one guide element is provided, which is extending spirally from one end to the other end of the second lever sleeve;
• and
• an actuating rod is displaceably held within the bearing channel of the hinge shaft, which actuating rod is aligned parallel or coaxially with the hinge axis and which actuating rod comprises a rod element and at least one track element that is connected to the rod element, which at least one track element interacts with the guide element in such a way that the actuating rod is displaceable axially against the actuating element of the damping device when the two hinge levers are rotated relative to one another.
