Abstract:
An adjustable glide apparatus is for a sliding panel to slide along a track between open and closed positions. The adjustable glide apparatus comprises a housing defining a cavity with at least one receiver disposed within the cavity. An adjustment stem has an end that has a thread and is disposed within the cavity. A cam is coupled to the receiver for moving the receiver relative to the housing. The cam comprises a plurality of teeth for engaging the thread to rotate the cam as the adjustment stem is rotated thereby moving the receiver relative. A glide is coupled to the receiver and comprises a contact surface. The contact surface is adapted for sliding engagement with the track to slide the sliding panel between the open and the closed positions. A distance between the contact surface and the housing is adjusted as the receiver is moved by the cam.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a household appliance (1) such as a dishwasher or an oven, the front door (3) of which is opened by pulling from the top downwards, comprising an adjustment mechanism (5) that balances the weight of the door (3) so that while the door (3) is being opened it doesn't fall by its own weight or closed in a hard way. The adjustment mechanism (5) comprises a spring (9) that applies a tensile force on the door (3), that is pulled to be tensioned by the pulling cable (10) which is activated by an adjustment rod (6), an endless screw (7) and a gearwheel (8).

Abstract:
The carriage, which serves for holding a slidable separation element, comprises a carriage body and at least one running wheel, which is a rolling along a rail when the separation elements is displaced. According to the invention the carriage body comprises a housing with an interior space, in which an adjusting element is provided, which is protruding through an opening out of the housing and which is seated slidable in a direction at least approximately vertically to the running direction of the carriage, and which adjusting element comprises a holding element that interacts within the housing with an adjusting element, that is displaceable in relation to the holding element by means of an adjusting screw, which is held by the carriage body, so that the adjustment element is held at a selected position, whereas either the part of the adjusting element that is protruding out of the housing is provided with the at least one running wheel and the carriage body is connected to the separation element; or the part of the adjusting element that is protruding out of the housing is connected to the separation element and the carriage body is provided with the at least one running wheel.
Abstract:
A stop arrangement for forming an adjustable stop between a first component and a second component that are movable in relation to each other, in particular between a vehicle body and a flap hinge-connected to it, including a fastening element which is connected to the first component and has a first threaded portion, and including a stop part, which serves as a stop for the second component and has a second threaded portion, which can be brought into engagement with the first threaded portion in such a way that, by turning the stop part, the distance of the latter from the first component can be set.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a regulation mechanism for built-in sliding doors of the type comprising a sliding leaf (4), a guide (6) in the lower part of said sliding leaf (4) and a fixed stop (16) inside said guide (6), comprising a cover (1) fixed at the end of the sliding leaf (4), a mobile stop (2) slidable through the inner part of the guide (6) situated between the cover (1) and the fixed stop (16), and an adjustment screw (3) traversing the cover (1) and the mobile stop (2) by means of which the relative position between both elements (1) and (2) is regulated.
Abstract:
A spindle or worm drive for adjusting devices, especially seat adjustment devices, window lifters and sliding roofs, in motor vehicles. The drive includes a fixed spindle or relatively fixed toothed rack which is secured to the second of the two parts. The gear elements are mounted in a housing which includes at least two plates that can be secured to each other by plug-in connectors. The connectors are also configured as supporting joints that absorb the forces of the gear.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a piece of furniture comprising a body (1) and at least one flap (2) that can be upwardly displaced by means of at least one actuating arm (3) which is joined to the flap in an articulated manner and can preferably be pivoted about a horizontal axis. At least one actuating arm (3) is subjected to the action of a spring device (4), and at least one electric drive (5) acts on at least one actuating arm (3, 3′). A coupling device (40) acts between the electric drive (5) and the actuating arm (3), said coupling device having a free wheel for freely displacing the actuating arm (3) into an open position and/or a closed position, in at least one rotary direction over a defined angular region.
