The hard mounting point is configured to accept an accessory bracket and the accessory bracket is configured to accept one or more accessories.
Motor vehicle door with hinge reinforcement
A motor vehicle door is configured to hingedly mount to the body of a motor vehicle. The door includes a door structure having a hinge reinforcement arranged on an interior side of the door structure. The hinge reinforcement includes a respective mounting flange section abutting the door structure on at least two opposing outer edges and a force absorption area between the at least two opposing mounting flange sections. The force absorption area is situated at a distance from the door structure to define a hollow space there between. The force absorption area is supported against the door structure by at least one bushing.

PATCH FITTING
A patch fitting for a fire-retardant glass door is disclosed herein. The patch fitting comprises a support sandwiched between a first layer of fire retardant material on a first side of the support and a second layer of fire retardant material on an opposing second side of the support. The support comprises a first attachment means for attaching to a first pane of glass of the fire-retardant glass door on the first side of the support, and a second attachment means for attaching to a second pane of glass of the first-retardant glass door on the opposing second side of the support. The patch fitting is configured, in use, to be at least partially sandwiched between the two layers of glass of the firm-retardant glass door.

REFRIGERATOR
A refrigerator includes a cabinet including a refrigerating compartment and an evaporation chamber, a first door, a housing in the first door, an ice making room defining a cool air inflow hole and a cool air discharge hole, a chiller room defining a cool air discharge hole, a second door connected to the first door, a partition wall defining the ice making room, the chiller room, and a communication hole, a damper opening and closing the communication hole, a cool air supply duct connecting an outlet of the evaporation chamber and the cool air inflow hole to supply cool air of the evaporation chamber to the ice making room, and a cool air return duct having a first inlet connected to the cool air discharge hole of the ice making chamber and a second inlet connected to the cool air discharge hole of the chiller room.
Hinge device provided with power generating device and capable of extracting energy from user's living activities to generate electric power
A hinge device includes: a first and a second hinge components having a common reference axis; and a power generating device. The first and the second hinge components are engaged with each other, so as to be rotatable about the reference axis relative to each other, and so that one of the first and the second hinge components supports the other. The power generating device includes a housing and an input shaft, and generates electric power by rotation of the input shaft. The housing of the power generating device is fixed to the first hinge component, so that the input shaft of the power generating device is positioned on the reference axis. The input shaft of the power generating device is restrained to the second hinge component with respect to the direction of rotation about the reference axis, so that the input shaft of the power generating device rotates by as much as rotation of the second hinge component when the second hinge component rotates about the reference axis.

COUNTERBALANCE AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME
A counterbalance assembly, including a spring pack, including a rod including a first end and a second end, a connector connected to the first end, an energy storage device arranged between the first end and the second end, a pivot plate arranged on the rod between the second end and the energy storage device, and a spacer removably arranged on the rod between the second end and the pivot plate, the spacer operatively arranged to maintain the energy storage device in a first compressed state having a first compression force.
REFRIGERATOR
A refrigerator includes a cabinet, a door, and a hinge connecting the door to an upper surface of the cabinet. The hinge includes a mounting part mounted on the cabinet and a hinge pin inserted into the door. The door includes a door body that has a hinge mounting part and is filled with an insulating material, and a panel assembly mounted on a front surface of the door body. The hinge mounting part is recessed into the door body and receives the hinge inserted at a position spaced apart from the upper end of the door body. A pin mounting hole into which the hinge pin is inserted is formed on a lower surface of the hinge mounting part, and an upper opening through which an electric wire directed into the door passes is formed on an upper surface of the hinge mounting part.
