Abstract:
A hinge unit includes a hinge arm which defines a room in which a securing frame is installed. The securing frame includes two side panels with an engaging member connected therebetween. Each of the two side panels has an engaging portion on the inside thereof. The engaging member has a through hole and a protrusion extends from the periphery of the through hole. A damper has a body and a piston. The body has a front end portion having a recessed area, and a rear end portion having a protrusion. A fixing member connects the securing frame to the hinge arm. The piston extends through the through hole and the protrusion is engaged with the recessed area, the body of the damper is installed between the two side panels. The contact portion of the body contacts the engaging portion.
Abstract:
A hinge assembly for pivotably attaching a door to a domestic appliance is provided. The hinge assembly includes a hinge body; a damper having a central longitudinal axis; a first linkage member pivotably attached to the damper; a second linkage member pivotably attached to the damper; and a foot pivotably attached at a first end of the foot to the first and second linkage members, the foot being configured to engage at a second end of the foot a foot receiving portion of the domestic appliance such that the hinge body and the door pivot relative to the domestic appliance. The first and second linkage members are offset from and positioned on opposite sides of the central longitudinal axis of the damper.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an actuator (1), comprising an output member (6); a resilient element (8) connected to said output member (6) so as to urge it in a first direction; and an hydraulic rotation damper (5) with a closed cylinder cavity, a rotational damper shaft which extends into the cylinder cavity, and a piston dividing the cylinder cavity into a first side and a second side. Within the rotation damper (5), the rotational movement of the damper shaft is converted into a translational movement of the piston along a longitudinal axis of the shaft. A restricted fluid passage communicates said first and second sides. The damper shaft is connected over a gearing (10, 15, 17) to the output member (6) and resilient element (8) of the actuator for damping movement of said output member (6) in said first direction.The present invention relates to both rotational and linear actuators as well as to a closing mechanisms for hinged members, such as doors, gates, or windows, comprising such actuators.
Abstract:
The hinge for wings or doors, in particular of electrical appliances, comprises a first box-shaped body, a second box-shaped body, a connecting element between the first and second bodies, and a damper cylinder for applying on the second body an action damping its movement towards the first body.
Abstract:
A hinge, for automatically-closing a door which opens in both directions, includes a cylinder (2); an operating rod (3) to be rotatable and restricted from moving in the longitudinal direction; two substantially V-shaped grooves (33) provided on an outer periphery of the operating rod (3) in the cylinder (2) to oppose to each other; two spheres (55) provided engage the substantially V-shaped grooves (33); an upper piston (5) engaged with the spheres (55); a compression coil spring (4) disposed between the upper piston (5) and an upper end portion of the cylinder (2) and configured to urge the upper piston (5) to the other end side of the cylinder (2), and a fluid pressure shock absorbing mechanism configured to absorb a shock caused by the movement of the upper piston 5 to the other end side with a liquid pressure.
Abstract:
A damping device furniture door leaves includes a damper housing with a base plate whose base area rests against and is fastened to an effective bearing area of the door opening of the furniture door leaf. The base plate includes a screw bore through which a fastening screw can be screwed into the effective bearing area. A spring projection extending from the base area of the base plate can be pushed behind the base area against spring resistance.
Abstract:
The hinge, particularly for a furniture, comprises a hinge arm (5) which can be associated to a fixed part (1, 2) of the furniture, a hinge box (6) which can be associated to a movable part (3) of the furniture and connected to the hinge arm (5) in rotation between an opening position and a closing position of the hinge (4), at least one plate (28) having at least one seat (29) for at least one shock absorbing device (30) of the closing of the hinge (4) and/or for at least an assist device for the opening of the hinge (4), and at least one fixing element (21) in common with the hinge arm (5) and with the plate (28) for being fixed to the fixed part (1, 2) of the furniture.
Abstract:
A door opening and closing device can change a damping force of a damper when an arm rotates by opening and closing of a door. On a case 11 of the door opening and closing device 7, the arm 8 is mounted which rotates by opening and closing of the door 2. Inside the case 11, friction generating unit 22 is provided. The friction generating unit 22 has a slider 12d which moves linearly relative to the case 11 by opening and closing of the door 2 and a fixed part 21 which is fixed to the case 11 to slide the slider 12d. The friction generating unit 22 generates friction between the slider 12d and the fixed part 21. In opening and closing of the door 2, a radio of the rotation angle of the arm 8 and the amount of displacement of the slider 12d is varied.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a damping device for damping an opening and/or closing motion of a furniture fitting. The damping device includes a restoring mechanism, by which an actuating element of the damping device can be moved into a starting position of the subsequent damping stroke after damping has been carried out. The location of the starting position of the actuating element can be set relative to the damping device by an adjusting unit. The actuating element of the damping device is rotatably supported, and the adjusting unit can be used to adjustably limit the restoring stroke of the actuating element relative to the damping device.
Abstract:
In an arrangement for damping and/or retarding a movable part, including a housing with a pressure member slidably supported in the housing and a cylinder piston unit arranged in the pressure member and in the housing wherein the housing includes a mounting flange with a support surface provided with at least two throughbores, the mounting flange has at least two spaced guide surfaces which are oriented at least approximately normal to the support surface, the guide surfaces delimiting an adapter area at several sides thereof. The damping arrangement can be used and installed rapidly and accurately to various types of hinges.
