Abstract:
A device lor the transfer of a torque from an output shaft of a drive mounted on the body of a motor vehicle with a rotational axis of the output shaft and a hinge axis arranged flush with one another. The device includes a drive lever rotationaily connected to the output shaft of the drive, a connecting member on the drive lever extending from a connecting region of the drive lever. The connecting member includes a sliding block and an adapter part that is connected to a first half of a hinge and is provided with a journal. The journal rotates directly in, but independently of, the sliding block.
Abstract:
A door closing device (10) for an automatic closing of a door leaf (B) coupled with a floor and/or a doorpost (S) so as to swing. The door closing device (10) comprises a fixed unit (12) that is fixed on the floor and/or the doorpost (S), a translating unit (14) and a rotating unit (16) on which the door leaf (B) is fixed. The coupling of the three units (12, 14, 16) and the presence of spring (38) are such that, when the rotating unit (16) rotates in a first sense of rotation, the translating unit (14) is caused to translate in a direction and such that, when the translating unit (14) translates in an opposite direction, the rotating unit (16) is caused to rotate in an opposite sense of rotation.
Abstract:
A retrofit conversion kit for facilitating the conversion of a door operating apparatus conventionally mounted above the door, to a position mounted and anchored underground for operating a swinging door therefrom. The conversion to an anchored underground position is facilitated by incorporating positional adjustment mechanisms covering any or all possible adjustment dimensions.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an improved sash window including a window frame (1) containing two sashes (2 and 3) which are disposed in the same first vertical plane in the closed window position. The lower sash (3) is connected to a counterweight mechanism (8) enabling same to move vertically in the window frame (1). The window also includes scissor mechanisms (9) which are guided between the jambs (4) of the window frame (1) in order to move the lower sash (3) horizontally forward from the first vertical plane in which the window is closed to a second vertical plane in which the window is open or vice versa. The lower sash is maintained in the open position by means of blocking elements (24, 25) and is moved vertically with the aid of the counterweight mechanism (8).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a synchronization device for moving a first actuating device in synchronization with at least one second actuating device, wherein the first actuating device and the second actuating device are provided on a piece of furniture in the installed state in order to move a movable furniture part. The device includes a synchronization rod for transferring a synchronous motion of the at least two actuating devices, at least one fastening device, by which the synchronization rod can be detachably connected to at least one of the two actuating devices, wherein at least one detachable locking device is provided, which prevents the synchronization rod from being connected to the at least one fastening device in the locked state of the locking device, wherein the locking device is in the locking state without prior actuation by a user.
Abstract:
A door closing mechanism which comprises a hydraulic rotation damper 5, comprising a closed cylinder cavity 20 within a cylinder barrel 19, a rotational damper shaft 22 which extends into the cylinder cavity 20, a piston 21 dividing the cylinder cavity 20 into a first side 20a above the piston 21 and a second side 20b below the piston 21, a one-way valve 33 allowing fluid flow from said first side 20a to said second side 20b of the cylinder cavity 20, and a fluid passage 31 between said first and second sides 20a,20b of the cylinder cavity 20, with a flow restrictor, in particular in the form of a needle valve 32, adjustable through an orifice in the cylinder barrel 19, wherein said second side 20b of the cylinder cavity 20 and said orifice are at opposite sides of the flow restrictor.
Abstract:
An output shaft, to which the rotational force of a motor is transmitted, is rotatably supported and housed in a case. One end of the output shaft protrudes from the case, and a pinion gear is provided on this one end. Teeth that mesh with the pinion gear are provided on the outer circumferential surface of cables. A guide member for guiding the cables in such a way that they mesh with the pinion gear is mounted on the case. An urging plate portion that presses against the side of the pinion gear is provided on the guide member. The urging plate portion urges the output shaft in the axial direction and, as a result, rattle of the output shaft is alleviated.
Abstract:
Furniture hinge with alternative damping and/or braking device with respect to those existing and able to guarantee a better functional efficiency during closing and opening operation of the doors, or other parts of furniture, even after long periods of inactivity of the same device. The better efficiency of such hinge is also obtained by increasing the friction surfaces with a viscous means present in suitable areas of the hinge and by allowing the regulation of the angular velocity trend of a circular shaped element, for example a disk, that acts as a braking element in contact with the viscous means.
Abstract:
A hinge assembly is provided to mount a door to a housing, and includes a housing fixation section (1), a hinge cup (3) pivotally connected to the housing fixation section (1), and a damping mechanism (4) positioned entirely within the hinge cup (3) to dampen movement of the door as it closes on the housing.
Abstract:
An upper and lower traffic door support that may be installed in a first position for a first opening arc for the traffic door and installed in a second position to have an increased arc of travel.
