Abstract:
The invention relates to a drive device, particularly for doors, garage doors, etc., comprising a guide device, particularly a rail or guide rail, extending in movement direction of the door. The invention is characterised in that the feed means comprises a first insert body which can be plugged at the ends of the guide rail into this and is provided with a connecting cable and which is held at the guide rail end and constructed in such a manner that it fulfils its function not only at one end of the guide rail, but also at the other end of the guide rail.
Abstract:
A hinge mechanism (200) for a portable electronic device (100) is provided. The hinge mechanism includes a first shaft (202) that is capable of rotating about a first axis (206). The hinge mechanism also includes a second shaft (204) that is capable of rotating about a second axis (208), wherein the second axis in substantially parallel to the first axis. A link (210) connects the first shaft and the second shaft, wherein the link enables the first shaft and the second shaft to rotate in opposite directions.
Abstract:
A method of feeding an animal in a feeding box. The method comprises at least the following steps, the steps a-c not necessarily taking place in the given sequence: a) identifying the animal in the feeding box, b) closing the feeding box, in such a way that access to the feeding box is impeded for an animal outside the feeding box, c) supplying feed to the animal in the feeding box in a chosen eating period of time. An installation for feeding an animal, which installation is provided with a frame that encloses at any rate at least partially a frame area. A neutral position means for positioning a passage means into one particular neutral position.
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 a damper arrangement for parts (1) of furniture that can be pivoted in relation to each other. Said arrangement comprises at least one damper (2) having a linear damping course, and at least two abutment parts (5, 6) which can be respectively fixed to one of the parts of the furniture, or can be supported thereon in an especially sliding manner. Said abutment parts are interconnected in such a way that they can be pivoted by means of at least one articulated axis (9). The damper (2) is arranged in such a way that the direction (10, 10′, 10″) of the linear damping course thereof is at an angle to a parallel (37), deviating from a vertical (36), preferably essentially parallel to the articulated axis (9).
Abstract:
Furniture hinge with damping and/or braking device in alternative to those already existing and capable of guaranteeing an improved efficiency during the closing or opening operation of the doors, or other furniture parts, thanks to an improvement of the characteristics of rigidity and, simultaneously, elasticity of the means for transmitting motion from one of the rockers to the damping elements. The improved efficiency of this hinge is also obtained by increasing the friction surfaces with a viscous medium present in suitable areas of the hinge and by allowing regulation of the trend of the angular velocity of a circular shaped element, for example a disc, which acts as braking element in contact with the viscous medium.
Abstract:
An opening/closing device (1) for a double flap door (3) of an item of furniture (3) is described, wherein the top part (2′) and the bottom part (2″) of the door (2) are not hinged to each other.The device (1) comprises means (4)—connected to the furniture item (3) and to the top part (2′) of the door (2) and adapted to cause the top part (2′) of the door (2) to rotate with respect to the furniture item (3)—and an articulated quadrilateral (5), connected to the means (4) and adapted to cause the bottom part (2″) of the door (2) to rotate with respect to the top part (2′) concomitantly with the rotation of the top part (2′) of the door (2) with respect to the furniture item (3).The articulated quadrilateral (5) comprises a first and a second arm (5′, 5″) having one end hinged to the bottom part (2″) of the door (2) and the other end hinged to the means (4), integral respectively with the top part (2′) of the door (2).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a hinge arrangement, in particular refrigerator housing comprising a refrigerator door pivotably articulated thereto, with a first part (2), with a second part (4) pivotably articulated to the first part (2) via a hinge (3, 3a), with a piston cylinder damping unit (6), which is operatively arranged between the first part (2) and the second part (4) for damping a pivoting movement of the two parts (2, 4) relative to one another, and which is articulated to at least one part (2, 4).
Abstract:
A hinge for wings or doors, in particular of electrical appliances, having a first element, a second element and a rocker lever for connecting the first and second elements; the lever pivots on the second element and has a first arm integral with the first element to render the first and second elements movable relative to one another with a tilting action between a closed position and an open position; the second element consisting of a substantially box-shaped body containing both elastic parts, inserted between the second element and a second arm of the lever to apply an elastic action on the lever, and a damping device, for applying a damping action on the lever during the reciprocal motion of the first and second elements, when the closed position is almost reached.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a gear motor, preferably for driving a door, comprising a motor and a transmission flanged to the same with a central, continuous hollow shaft and a plug-in shaft adapted to the profile shape of the hollow shaft, which serves as an output shaft.
