    Abstract: The one-way hinge damper includes a cylindrical housing into a rotor is rotatably inserted. A gap is formed between the rotor and the cylindrical housing which is filled with silicone or a similar viscous fluid for damping the rotation of the rotor. The damping can be increased by forming longitudinal grooves or similar discontinuities in the interior surface of the cylindrical housing and longitudinal passageways on the exterior surface of the rotor. A clutch, to which the output shaft is attached, is biased against an end of the rotor by a wave spring. Both the clutch and the end of the rotor include complementary rotationally alternating ramped surfaces and flat (or longitudinally level) surfaces. Radially extending walls are formed between the higher end of the ramped surfaces and the adjacent flat surface. When the output shaft and the clutch are rotated in a first direction, the radially extending walls of the clutch align with and engage the radially extending walls of the rotor and the rotor rotates through the viscous fluid thereby achieving damping. However, when the output shaft and clutch are rotated in a second direction, the ramped surfaces of the clutch "ramp over" the ramped surfaces of the rotor, and the rotor does not rotate, thereby allowing the clutch and output shaft to rotate substantially free of damping.

    Abstract: A rotary damper for use with a toilet lid has a damper shaft rotatably supported by a damper housing, a collar of synthetic resin fitted over the damper shaft for rotation therewith, and a casing of synthetic resin fixed to the damper housing and disposed around the collar for rotation relative thereto. The collar has a pair of diametrically opposite axial ridges disposed on the outer circumferential surface thereof and projecting radially outwardly. The casing has a pair of diametrically opposite cantilevered resilient arms defined by respective slits in the circumferential wall thereof. The cantilevered resilient arms have respective axial teeth disposed on the inner circumferential surface of the casing and projecting radially inwardly for engagement with the axial ridges, respectively. When the collar rotates in one direction, respective slanting surfaces of the axial ridges engage and move over the respective axial teeth, displacing the axial teeth radially outwardly against the resiliency of the cantilevered resilient arms. After the axial ridges move past the respective axial teeth, respective step surfaces of the axial ridges are locked by the axial teeth, retaining the collar and hence the damper shaft in a rotated position unless strong forces are applied to rotate the damper shaft backward.

    Abstract: A one-way damping system is provided for dampening the movement of a closure member when the closure member is moved in a first direction toward its opened position such that the closure member is opened at a controlled rate of speed, and for permitting the closure member to be moved in a second direction toward its closed position such that the closure member is able to be closed at an undampened or unrestricted rate of speed. The closure member includes a gear rack integrally molded therewith, and a rotary damper gear is movable into engagement with and out of engagement from the gear rack in order to provide the dampened and undampened movement modes. An idler gear or a pair of control arms are operatively associated with the rotary damper gear so as to ensure proper engagement and disengagement of the rotary damper gear with respect to the gear rack.

    Abstract: A damper for a flapdoor that does not show any damping effect when its movable shaft of the damper is rotated with the door in one sense whereas it effectively damps the rotary movement of the flapdoor when the movable shaft is rotated with the door in the other sense, wherein a one-way clutch for engaging or disengaging the movable shaft with a movable member depending on the sense of rotation of the movable shaft to cause a viscous shearing drag in the viscous fluid contained in the damper and a power source constitute so many integral parts of a coil spring. A damper for a flapdoor having such an arrangement can have a simplified configuration as compared with a damper provided with a separate coil spring as power source and a separate one-way clutch and therefore can be realized with reduced dimensions. Moreover, since such a one-way clutch can be prepared from a coil spring without requiring any additional processes and by simply engaging a portion of the coil spring with the movable member, the rest of the coil spring functioning as power source, the damper can be realized at a significantly reduced cost.

    Abstract: A toilet covering hinge assembly for mounting a toilet covering to the rear of a toilet for rotation of the toilet covering about a hinge axis between a lowered and a raised position. The hinge assembly includes a hinge element which is provided at the rear end of the toilet covering and is formed with a bore extending along the hinge axis. A hinge shaft extends through the bore in a rotatively fixed relation thereto so as to be rotatable together with the toilet covering about the hinge axis. One end of the hinge shaft is received by a support member provided on the side of the toilet for allowing the hinge shaft to rotate together with the toilet covering relative to the toilet. A retainer spring is secured to the hinge element adjacent to the bore for latching the hinge shaft against an axial movement thereof. The retainer spring comprises an outer section and an inner section having an inner edge projecting radially inwardly into the bore and capable of being resiliently deformed into and out of locking engagement with a stepped shoulder in the outer surface of the hinge shaft.
