The invention relates to a hinge for connecting two securing arts for directly or indirectly securing to two furniture parts pivotable relative to each other, the securing parts being pivotably connected to each other by means of a connecting assembly. It is thereby provided that a linear guide element is disposed on each of the two securing parts, said elements interacting to form a linear guide, and that the hinge comprises a guide device implemented for displacing the linear guide depending on the pivot position of the securing parts relative to each other. The invention further relates to a method for displacing a first securing part of a hinge in an articulated manner relative to a second securing part. The hinge and the method enable a pivotable connection between furniture parts having at least a reduced risk of injury.

The invention relates to a hinge (10) comprising a swivellable hinge part (12), a stationary hinge part (14) and a tensionable spring element (34), wherein the stationary hinge part (14) is designed with a first bearing (16) as well as a second bearing (18), wherein the bearings (16, 18) have swivel axes (S1, S2) that are offset to one another. According to the invention, the swivellable hinge part (12) is mounted on the stationary hinge part (14) via the first bearing (16) such that it can swivel about a swivel axis (S1), and the tensionable spring element (34) is arranged on the stationary hinge part (14) via the second bearing (18).

In a mobile communication terminal in which a flexible display panel is provided in two body portions which are foldably connected to each other, a plurality of rotation supports are provided in a central joint that connects the two body portions and two sliding panels sliding in the respective body portions together and the rotation supports are directly connected to the two body portions to support rotation of the body portions such that the body portions do not rotate over 180 degrees when the two body portions are fully unfolded, whereby damage of the flexible display panel provided on the surfaces of the two body portions is prevented.

A hinge for a swinging gate includes a base plate, a hinge base pivotally secured to the base plate and a mounting member connected in spaced apart relation to the hinge base by an elongate bolt. A gate-engaging member is secured to the mounting member so that pivoting of the hinge base effects conjoint pivoting of the mounting member, the gate-engaging member and a gate that it engages. An upstanding post has a pair of laterally spaced apart T-shaped slots that extend along its height. A bolt disposed within a T-shaped slot is disposed horizontally and cannot rotate. The bolts housed in a T-shaped slot screw-threadedly engage apertures formed in the corners of the base plate to secure the base plate to the upstanding post. In a second embodiment, a cantilever gate supported by a trolley assembly is secured in cantilever relation to at least one upstanding post.

As described herein, a hinge system may comprise one or more a guide wire hinges. In general, the guide wire hinges may be unitary members having a generally constant diameter. A pair of guide wire hinges may be utilized to hingeably couple a stow box door to the stow box housing. The hinge system may be configured to be deformable in response to experiencing a warping.

An injection molded housing includes a first piece, a second piece, and a wall defined by the first piece removably joined to the second piece by a joint at abutting surfaces of the first piece and the second piece. A central catch is integrally molded with the first piece, protruding from the wall. A latch is integrally molded with the second piece, and connected to the second piece first and second living hinges. A half-knuckle is integrally molded with the second piece, protruding from the wall. A hinge pin is fixedly attached to the latch. The latch is bendable at the living hinges to align the hinge pin with the half-knuckle. The latch is rotatable about the hinge pin to engage the central catch and selectably prevent the first piece from being disengaged from the second piece.
