Abstract:
A hinge device increases an open angle of a second member relative to a first member without enlarging the hinge device. A first pulley is fixed to a first mounting member mounted on the first member. A second pulley is fixed to a second mounting member mounted on the second member. A timing belt runs between the first and second pulleys. One end of a connecting member that connects the first mounting member to the second connecting member connects rotatably to an axis part of the first mounting member, with the opposite end connected rotatably to an axis part of the second mounting member. Pins to that abut to the outside of the timing belt are provided such that the width between one side and the opposite side of the timing belt becomes smaller than the diameter of at least one of the first pulley and the second pulley.
Abstract:
A step unit includes: a step member which is provided with a pair of lower rails extending in an opening and closing direction of a slide door of the vehicle; and a rail plate member which is provided to a cutout formed in a part of either of the lower rails and which continuously connects the lower rails in the opening and closing direction. The step member is molded using a resin material and is provided with an insertion hole which vertically penetrates through the step member at a position corresponding to the cutout; and a support extension section which is extended from a side end of the cutout of the lower rail. The rail plate member is mounted to the step member by being inserted so as to penetrate through the insertion hole from above the step member.
Abstract:
Presented herein is a novel sliding door system that that enables adjustment of at least two sliding doors relative to each other such that surfaces of the sliding doors create a substantially flush surface a support onto which the sliding door mechanism is mounted. The system includes at least one inner and outer sliding door slidably coupled to corresponding guide rails. The guide rail that is coupled to the outer sliding door is selectably moveable by a sliding door mechanism between a first and a second position. In the first position, a user can slide outer and inner sliding doors along said guide rails, whereas in the second position, a surface of the outer sliding door is substantially flush with a surface of said inner sliding door.
Abstract:
A support having a transmission mechanism using a thin connecting piece includes a support base body, a transmission plate, a supporting plate and at least one thin connecting piece. The support base body has a base and brackets extending upwardly from the base. The distal end of the bracket is provided with a fixing sleeve. One end of the transmission plate is pivotally connected to the bracket. The supporting plate connected to the other end of the transmission plate. The supporting plate is provided with pivoting sleeves. The thin connecting piece is disposed on the transmission plate. Via this arrangement, the supporting plate can be kept vertical in synchronization with the swinging of the transmission plate. Thereby saving the space greatly and reducing the whole volume occupied by the support and peripheral elements. In this way, the assembling process is simplified, the productivity is increased, and the cost is reduced.
Abstract:
A drive arrangement (10) has first and second wheels (12, 14) and an endless loop member (16). The path of the member (16) is defined in part by a third wheel (18), between the wheels (12, 14). The wheel (18) is movably mounted so that the length can be changed for the path of the member (16) as it passes around the wheel (18), between the wheels (12, -14). Accordingly, the member (16) can be tightened or slackened around the wheels (12, 14), so that the wheels (12, 14) can be coupled to convey drive from one to the other, through the member (16), or disengaged, so that drive is not conveyed.

Abstract:
A synchronized actuation system for sliding doors, of the type of those formed, in which the pulling grip (1) and the free grip (2) have flanges (12) and the belt (4) and free (2) and pulling (1) grips are joined by a connecting shoe (3). With this configuration it is possible to carry out assembly and maintenance operations vertically and therefore in situ.
Abstract:
A drive arrangement for a shaft, such as a shaft for driving a sectional door, roller shutter or the like, is in the form of a module, carried, in use, by the shaft and including a motor, a driven wheel fixed for rotation with the shaft and drivable, in use, by the motor, and clutch means and operable between the motor and the wheel. The module further includes brace means in the form of a limb attachable to a member which is fixed relative to the axis of the shaft, to brace the module against turning as the shaft is driven.
Abstract:
An apparatus for moving a window glass of a vehicle includes a carrier fixed to a window glass, a guiding rail for slidably supporting the carrier, a driven member fixed to the carrier and an actuator for driving the driven member. The actuator includes a cylinder-shaped rotational driving member for driving the driven member, a holder provided at an outside of the rotational driving member and having an arc-shaped inner surface facing an outer circumferential surface of the rotational driving member and coaxial with the rotational driving member and an arc-shaped moving member having a circumferential length longer than that of the inner surface of the holder, the moving member being provided between the rotational driving member and the inner surface of the holder for circumferential movement by the driven member.
Abstract:
In the case of a hinge device with an arm and with two head pieces mounted to pivot/swivel on the ends of the arm around respectively one axis, the head pieces are respectively joined to revolve with one of the two belt pulleys, which are circumscribed by a common traction belt on one circumferential surface, and at least one of the belt pulleys is not circular but preferably elliptical.
