Abstract
A slow-closing door hinge, includes a first foldout and a second foldout having a shaft sleeve respectively. A fixed rod mounted in the sleeve of the first foldout, and a rotating rod mounted in the sleeve of the second foldout are connected by a connecting rod. The connecting rod and the fixed rod are movably connected, with a hollow groove at the joint. A restoring spring in contact with the fixed rod and fixed to the connecting rod in the hollow groove. The connecting rod is connected with the rotating rod in a coaxial, rotationally actuating manner. The forward and backward rotation of the fixed rod and the rotating rod cooperates with the restoring spring to drive the connecting rod in a reciprocal motion within the shaft sleeve.

A slow-closing door hinge, including a first foldout and a second foldout having a shaft sleeve respectively,
- wherein, a fixed rod is fixedly mounted in the shaft sleeve of the first foldout, and a rotating rod is fixedly mounted in the shaft sleeve of the second foldout,
- the fixed rod is connected with the rotating rod by a connecting rod,
- the connecting rod and the fixed rod are flexibly connected, and form a hollow groove,
- a restoring spring being in contact with the fixed rod and fixed to the connecting rod is provided in the hollow groove,
- the connecting rod is connected with the rotating rod in a coaxial, rotationally actuating manner,
- the connecting rod is driven reciprocally to move within the shaft sleeve by a relative forward and backward rotation of the fixed rod and the rotating rod cooperating with the restoring spring, and
- a structure of the coaxial rotational actuation of the connecting rod and the rotating rod is as follows:
- an undulating chute is provided on a first contact end surface of the connecting rod and a contact end surface of the rotating rod, respectively,
- the undulating chute includes a convex portion, a concave portion, and a slope between the convex portion and the concave portion, and
- when the connecting rod and the rotating rod relatively rotate, a dislocation of the concave portion and the convex portion of the undulating chute changes the axial displacement of the connecting rod and the rotating rod.
