The first hinge member includes a fuselage fitting pivotably coupled to a fuselage bracket. The second hinge member includes a door fitting pivotably coupled to a door bracket of the door. The articulated hinge assembly includes a linkage assembly coupled to the articulated hinge arm, the fuselage fitting and the door fitting. The linkage assembly includes a hinge linkage assembly coupled to the articulated hinge arm and the fuselage fitting and controlling movement of the hinge members relative to each other and relative to the fuselage fitting. The linkage assembly includes a door linkage assembly coupled to the articulated hinge arm and the door to control positioning of the door between open and closed positions.
Abstract:
An assembly for covering an agricultural receiving unit is provided. The assembly may include a covering body configured to, in a first position, extend over an opening of the agricultural receiving unit to prevent access to the opening. The assembly may also include an actuation assembly configured to move the covering body from the first position to a second position. In the second position, the covering body is configured to permit access to the opening of the agricultural receiving unit.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a drive configuration for the motorized displacement of a displacement element of a motor vehicle, at least one drive having an electrical drive motor, in particular a DC motor, and a drive controller, which is associated with the drive and connected to a supply voltage UV, being provided, the drive not being designed as self-locking, so that in the case of a non-motorized displacement of the displacement element, the drive motor operates as a generator and generates a generator voltage UG. It is proposed that the drive controller is equipped with an overvoltage protector, which can be triggered by exceeding a limiting supply voltage UV, and that the configuration is further made so that the overvoltage protector can additionally be triggered by a non-motorized displacement of the displacement element if a limiting generator voltage UG is exceeded.
Abstract:
An articulated hinge assembly for connecting a door to a fuselage of an aircraft includes an articulated hinge arm having a first hinge member pivotably coupled to a second hinge member at an elbow. A fuselage fitting is pivotably coupled to a fuselage bracket and a door fitting is pivotably coupled to a door bracket of the door. The articulated hinge arm is movable from a collapsed position to an expanded position to move the door from a door closed position to a door open position. The articulated hinge assembly includes a linkage assembly coupled to the articulated hinge arm, the fuselage fitting and the door fitting controlling movement of the first hinge member and the second hinge member relative to each other and relative to the fuselage fitting. The linkage assembly controls positioning of the door.
Abstract:
A movement device for the sliding movement of furniture and wardrobe doors having inner and outer doors which slide along parallel tracks/guides. The movement device includes inner and outer pairs of carriages each having a roller. The carriages are fixed to the inner front of each door. A plate directly attaches each inner carriage to the inner door. A frame with an inverted “U” cross-section attaches each outer carriage to the outer door. Air pistons are fixed proximate the ends of the guides, along which the rollers of the carriages slide for the cushioned stop at the end stroke of moving the carriages when opening and closing the doors. The mounting device includes a support member housing a second piston which is surmounted by an elastic clamp. The clamp selectively interfaces with an aligned wedge extending from a carriage from the other door to prevent abutment between door handles.

Abstract:
A combined hydraulic and pneumatic actuation system including a cylinder, a first piston, and a second piston. The cylinder may include a first cylinder portion configured to hold or retain a first fluid and a second cylinder portion configured to hold or retain a second fluid. The first piston can be operatively coupled or in fluid communication with the first fluid, and the second piston can be operatively coupled or in fluid communication with the second fluid. The second piston may be disposed between the first cylinder portion and the second cylinder portion. In an embodiment, the first piston can move or translate axially within the cylinder independently of the second piston, and an increase in pressure in the second cylinder portion can actuate the first piston and the second piston. Further, in embodiments, the first fluid can comprise a liquid, and the second fluid can comprise a gas.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for opening of doors. Electromechanical systems contain many expensive components and are thereby expensive to manufacture. Installed electromechanical systems are expensive in operation by virtue of the high and energy-demanding friction which always are present in mechanical constructions. The present operating device is less energy-demanding by the formed transmission of power via two piston-like parts (5 and 6). A driving device (2) is arranged to drive the piston-like part (5) and the second piston-like part (6) is connected to an operable element.
Abstract:
A door closer may utilize a door closing device (e.g., spring) and a force adjustment device (e.g., a motor) in order to allow for manual door opening and assisted door closing. During operation, as a door is manually opened, the spring is loaded (e.g., compressed or tensioned) above its pre-loaded closed position state. Once manual opening is completed, the spring that is loaded during opening begins returning to the pre-loaded closed position state, and thus, moves the door automatically towards the closed position. Depending on the pre-loaded spring setting, the closing force of the door may not be enough to close the door, or to close the door with the preferred force. As such, during closing a controller may engage a motor not to drive the door directly, but to increase the pre-load of spring to increase the closing force in order to allow the door to close as preferred.
