Abstract: A refuse container contains at least one door which may be easily pushed toward an open position in which the door rotates into an interior of the container. The door returns to a closed position under the force of a closing mechanism which may be a spring. However, the closing of the door is slowed by a damping mechanism.

Abstract: A storage apparatus includes a storage unit defining a front opening, and a closure member configured to cover the front opening. The closure member is attached to the storage unit for movement between open, intermediate and closed positions. The storage apparatus further includes a dampening element operably coupled to the closure member and the storage unit. The dampening element provides enhanced resistance to the movement of the closure member during a final phase of the opening and closing movements of the closure member while not providing enhanced resistance during an initial phase of the opening and closing movements.

Abstract: To provide a rotary damper in which a viscous fluid does not leak from between an inner end face of a land and an outer circumferential surface of a rotatable member, and a decrease in torque caused by an eccentric rotation of the rotating member is prevented. The rotary damper has a rotatable member being relatively rotatable with respect to a casing, the proximal portion of the rotatable member being accommodated in a chamber of the case; a ridge member extending axially along and projecting radially outwardly from an outer circumferential surface of the proximal portion of the rotatable member, the ridge member having a radially outer end face disposed for sliding contact with an inner circumferential surface of the chamber; and the land extending axially along and projecting inwardly from the inner circumferential surface of the chamber, the land having a face transverse with respect to the rotational direction of the rotatable member. The ridge member and the land divide an interior of the chamber into a compression compartment and a decompression compartment, the volume of these compartments being variable complementarily to each other in response to the relative rotation of the rotatable member and the casing. A spacer is interposed between the land and the proximal portion of the rotatable member and adapted to be pressed against the outer circumferential surface of the proximal portion and the transverse face of the land by the pressure built up in the compression compartment in response to rotation of the rotatable member.

Abstract: An apparatus for the damping of impacts, preferably the impacts of furniture doors or drawers, consists of a cylinder with a piston whose piston rod sealingly guided out of a cylinder side forms a ram absorbing the impacts which divides the cylinder space filled with a liquid into two chambers and has perforations and/or, together with the cylinder wall, bounds a passage gap. A guide bushing guiding the piston rod is arranged in the region of the discharge end of the cylinder. A compression spring is clamped between the piston and the cylinder bottom. To ensure a smooth and quiet running with a compact construction, the guide bushing has a central shaft part of reduced diameter. A widened end part of the guide bushing is supported on a step or annular flange constricting the inner diameter of the cylinder and the guide bushing is supported at the other end on a cover closing the cylinder. The shaft part of the guide bushing is encompassed by a tube-section-like part made of elastic material.

Abstract: A front lid opening and closing assist which enables an easy and safe operation of opening and closing a front lid of a keyboard instrument. A buffer in the front lid opening and closing assist has a first damping mechanism for damping the front lid when pivoted from a neutral position to an open position, and a second damping mechanism for damping the front lid when pivoted from the neutral position to a closed position. When the front lid is pivoted beyond the neutral position, it spontaneously pivots toward the open or closed position by its own weight. However, this motion is damped by the first and second damping mechanisms, which results in a slowed pivot motion of the front lid. As a result, a user can safely open or close the front lid relative to a back lid, with only minimal force for supporting the front lid.

Abstract: A springing up apparatus for the door (especially the rear door of a cargo box) of a van-type truck is constructed by pivotally attaching the second end of an arm A having a first end pivotally attached to a cargo box body and a second end of an arm B having a first end pivotally attached to the door of the cargo box, and loading a tension spring between a prescribed point on the arm B and a prescribed point on the cargo box body or on the door of the cargo box. This makes it easy to open and close the door of the cargo box by human power. Further, use is made of a compression spring, which is provided on the roof of the cargo box, and there are additionally provided a spring cover mounting structure, which is capable of rotating about a horizontal shaft fixed to the roof, as well as a door-opening adjustment mechanism, which comprises a bracket and an adjustment disk, for adjusting initial amount of compression of the compression spring. This makes it easy to bring the door to rest at a desired position.

Abstract: A pneumatic strut for use as an opening power assist mechanism for a motor vehicle tailgate has a piston rod extending from a piston contained within a cylinder. The piston separates the cylinder into two work chambers, each containing a gas charge under pressure. A bypass opening is active to connect the work chambers during the initial opening displacement of the tailgate to automatically open the tailgate through a first opening angle range. A second valve can be externally actuated to connect the two work chambers to further selectively open the tailgate into a second opening angle range. To close the tailgate, a third, directionally dependent valve can automatically connect the two work chambers during the closing displacement of the tailgate.
