  • Working Principles and Applications of Friction Hinges

    These last few decades have seen great advances in domestic appliances that utilize concealed and visible friction hinges for better performance in holding and moving objects. Hence, they can rest completely with or keep room for swing or rotational actions. In this article we will study working principles of friction hinges and where they are applied using JESD as an example of the manufacturer in this market.Get more news about Friction Hinges,you can vist our website!

    Understanding Friction Hinges

    Friction hinges are simply two plates connected by a pivot point although they have additional features in their design due to incorporation of friction elements within the hinge parts. These parts provide certain opposition during motion which allows the hinge to stay in place under applied forces. The design and structure of these fittings relies on the ability to modulate the amount of friction in them which can vary in size as per the application of the hinge.

    Working Principles

    These types of hinges Empirically rely on the eradication of any movements within the hinge elements as the simple means of controlling the nuts and bolts of the hinge. So, when there is any torque applied at the hinge, it’s the friction elements that generate resistive force and in turn holds the positional hinge when warped. The primary feature of this movement is that all the changes made are smooth throughout the range, and unnecessary motions are not permitted.

    Key Components

    Pivot Point: It is the point about which the hinge revolves

    Friction Plates: These are the components that provide the requisite resistance and are made up of a wide range of materials to fit different situations.

    Adjustment Mechanism: There are some friction hinges that have a feature to control and adjust the level of friction, which makes it possible to use the hinge according to certain demands.

    Applications of Friction Hinges
    Furniture Design

    Friction hinges are incorporated in modern furniture such as foldable tables and cabinets and other furniture design applications in a bid to improve versatility and conserve space.

    Why Choose JESD?

    JESD design and manufacture friction hinges which are of superior quality and performance. Since the invention of JESD’s products, the company has been consistent in its high quality. JESD has cover of a wide selection of areas in availability of Friction hinges; it makes sure of appropriate solutions for engineers and designers.

    Conclusion

    Friction hinges are very important devices in many fields as their operation involves controlled motion as well as stability. Realization of their principles of operation as well as appreciating how they function will enable you to understand the need for their synthesis in technology and design. JESD still remains a leader in providing high quality friction hinge solutions fitting every application.
