Abstract:
A hinged system includes a preassembled hinge module for pivotally coupling a first component to a second component. The preassembled hinge module includes a shaft, a torque element frictionally engaging the shaft, and a housing. The housing includes a cover, a side wall, and a rear wall that define an interior space enclosed within the housing. The interior space receives the torque element inside the housing. The cover defines a first aperture, and the rear wall defines a second aperture, the first aperture and the second aperture aligned with a pivot axis of the shaft. The shaft extends through at least the first aperture, the interior space, and the second aperture. The shaft is separate from, and configured to be mounted to, the first component. The housing is separate from, and configured to be mounted to, the second component.
Abstract:
A fire protection securing apparatus for securing a door actuator includes a retaining plate, designed for being secured to an assembly surface, in particular door, frame or wall, wherein, perpendicular to the retaining plate, an assembly axis is defined. The fire protection securing apparatus further includes an assembly plate which is secured to the retaining plate and which is designed for receiving the door actuator, and at least one closed reaction chamber arranged between the retaining plate and the assembly plate. The apparatus also includes a drive element of thermally intumescent material which is arranged in the reaction chamber and which is designed to push the assembly plate away from the retaining plate upon thermal activation.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a hinge unit of a console armrest for a vehicle, which includes an upper bracket including an armrest installation part coupled to an armrest, and upper hinge parts formed at both sides of the armrest installation part, each having a first upper hinge hole, a lower bracket including a console installation part coupled to a console, and lower hinge parts formed at both sides of the console installation part, each having a first lower hinge hole, an upper bracket cover configured to surround at least a portion of each of the upper hinge parts and to have a second upper hinge hole formed at a position corresponding to the first upper hinge hole, and a lower bracket cover configured to surround at least a portion of each of the lower hinge parts and to have a second lower hinge hole.
Abstract:
A hydraulic door closer is disclosed. The hydraulic door closer may include a top cap surrounded by an O-ring that is located at the top of the hydraulic door closer housing opposite a spindle to seal the hydraulic fluid within the housing. In addition to or in lieu of the top cap design, the door closer may include a locking washer to secure the valves to the housing; epoxy and an O-ring at the interface between the top cap and the housing of the door closer; use of a dual-walled rubber seal around the spindle; use of dual O-rings on each valve stems; use of caps that are made of the same material as the housing instead of aluminum and use of epoxy on the end caps; and/or use of backcheck with an adjustable spring.
Abstract:
A door closer comprises a piston cooperating with a rotating pinion. Upon rotation of the pinion in the door opening direction, the piston moves toward the second end of the housing forcing fluid from a second variable volume chamber through a passage to a first variable volume chamber and compressing a spring assembly for storing energy. The spring assembly urges the piston toward the first end of the housing for forcing fluid from the first variable volume chamber to the second variable volume chamber and rotating the pinion in the door closing direction. A controller controls the position of a valve in the passage based on the sensed angular position of a door and the position of the valve for determining the amount of hydraulic fluid flowing through the valve.
Abstract:
A cover device, includes a movable cover configured to cover retaining jaws of a retaining jaws module; a retaining cover connected to a side wall frame of a vehicle body and configured to enclose in the shape of a U an insertion end side of a retaining jaws module for insertion of a striker plate module to releasably couple with the retaining jaws module so as to connect a vehicle door with the side wall frame, and adjacent longitudinal sides of the retaining jaws module in transverse direction of the vehicle; and a rubber lip configured to elastically connect the retaining cover to the retaining jaws module and to compensate for tolerance compensation.
Abstract:
A multifunction frame for an electric sliding door has a body, a holding segment, a connecting segment, a positioning rod and a hub frame. The body has a mounting recess, a rear opening and two side holes. The rear opening and the side holes communicate with the mounting recess. The holding segment is formed on and protrudes from a bottom of the body and has two holding hooks. The connecting segment is formed on and protrudes from a top of the body and has at least one connecting hook. The positioning rod is formed on and protrudes from a front side of the body near the top of the body. The hub frame is formed on and protrudes from the front side of the body below the positioning rod and has a front opening formed through a front side of the hub frame.
Abstract:
A method for closing an opening in a body, for example in a housing of a door operator, and such a closure arrangement, a closure element being provided for this purpose, which is inserted into the opening, where the method includes providing the closure element having a pot-shaped embodiment such that the closure element includes a bottom and a surrounding border extending upwards from the extension plane of the bottom, forming the opening with a circumferential edge projecting into the opening, behind which edge an undercut area is formed, and joining the closure element into the opening such that the bottom points towards the inside, and widening the surrounding border into the undercut area.
Abstract:
There is provided a window/door system with a flat track having “”-shaped roller supports to provide a nice appearance and to improve air tightness and water tightness by reducing the number of grooves exposed on a window/door frame when a window/door is opened, by using the roller supports in a cross sectional shape of “” which is open at one side.
Abstract:
The present invention relates a hinge safety cover and, more particularly, a hinge safety cover in which a hinge installed between a door frame and a door of furniture or a sink, a cabinet, etc. used in a kitchen, is prevented from being exposed to the outside, thereby preventing clothes/bedclothes or a hanger being caught in the hinge so that the clothes/bedclothes are not damaged or the hinge is not broken, or preventing an accident which may cause a part of the body of a person, such as a finger, etc., to be trapped and injured.
