A footrest apparatus is formed by a base structure and a padded upper panel. The base structure has an insulated compartment therein with an insulated cover to keep articles cool or warm therein. A hinge mechanism connected between the base and panel releasably locks the panel in an upward position.

A wall vent door assembly including a multi-functional hinge including flexible and resilient material extending continuously along the hinge edge of the door; one edge of the door is configured to accept and/or otherwise interface with a complimentary edge of the hinge material, and the adjacent hinge edge of the mounting frame is configured to accept and/or otherwise interface with another complimentary edge of the hinge material. Besides providing the hinge connection between the door and the adjacent frame, the flexible material also seals the interface to prevent entry of light and wind when the door is closed. The flexible and resilient hinge material also acts as a spring, exerting force to assist in the movement of the door from the closed position to open positions.

A uniform distribution support structure of rotary shaft link assembly includes a rotary shaft assembly and a support assembly. The rotary shaft assembly has multiple connection members. Each connection member is formed with a hollow section and a perforation. A guide face is disposed in each hollow section. A spacer shaft rod is disposed between each two adjacent connection members. Each spacer shaft rod is formed with a through hole. A guide arched face is disposed in each through hole. The support assembly has a support member and a lateral support member passing through the through holes and the hollow sections. Multiple opposite guide arched faces are disposed on the support member. Multiple opposite guide faces are disposed on the lateral support member. The guide faces and the guide arched faces respectively abut against the opposite guide faces and the opposite guide arched faces.

A hinge constituent component according to the disclosure includes a plate-like portion extending along a length direction, a pair of rotating shafts or a pair of bearing portions provided at each of both ends of the plate-like portion in the length direction, and at least one protruding portion protruding from the plate-like portion in a width direction of the plate-like portion.

A saloon-type door assembly that includes left and right door assemblies that each include a frame adapter having a curved inner surface with a first apex, a front portion and a rear portion, a door adapter that includes a curved outer surface with a second apex a front portion and a rear portion, a door panel associated with the door adapter, at least one front hinge strip secured along a front hinge strip path, and at least one rear hinge strip that is secured along a rear hinge strip path. The front hinge strip path extends from the front portion of the curved outer surface of the door adapter to the rear portion of the curved inner surface of the frame adapter. The rear hinge strip path extends from the rear portion of the curved outer surface of the door adapter to the front portion of the curved inner surface of the frame adapter. The door panels are movable between a front open position, a closed position and a rear open position.

The present disclosure provides a bendable support structure and a flexible display device. The supporting structure includes a flexible substrate. The flexible substrate includes a bendable region, transition regions and non-bendable regions. The non-bendable regions are disposed on opposite sides of the bendable region. The bendable regions are connected to each of the non-bendable regions through one of the transition regions. First supporting units are fixedly disposed on each of the non-bendable regions. Second supporting units are disposed on each of the transition regions and connected to the first supporting units. A thickness of the second supporting unit gradually decrease from an end close to the non-bendable region to an end close to the bendable region

A door assembly for a vehicle can include a door panel having a front edge and a rear edge pivotably attached along a hinge axis to a frame assembly of the vehicle. The hinge axis can be angled away from a vertical direction of the vehicle at an acute angle. A hinge can be disposed at the rear edge of the door panel. The door panel can be configured to pivot about the hinge axis between an opened position and a closed position. A strut can be connected to the door panel and movable between an extended position and a retracted position. A net can be attached to the door panel and can be in tension when the door panel is in the closed position and can be in a less tensioned more curved configuration when the door panel is in the opened position.

A hinge includes: a first and second gear; a cover configured to attach the gears; a first outside surface associated with the first panel; a second outside surface associated with the second panel; wherein when the first and second outside surfaces are in a generally co-planer orientation, a tooth from one of the first and second gears fits next to a tooth from the other of the first and second gears to form a water shedding joint. A method of forming a hinge includes: extruding a gear together with a panel having a first outside surface; a second panel a second outside surface; wherein when the first and second outside surfaces are in a generally co-planer orientation, a tooth from one of the first and second gears fits next to a tooth from the other of the first and second gears to form a water shedding joint.
