The coupling portion is releasably connected to the mounting portion, and the mounting portion includes a housing. The coupling portion, when connected with the mounting portion, is received within the housing. The coupling portion is releasably connected to the mounting portion by a locking device, the locking device including a movably-mounted locking element for releasably locking the coupling portion, and the locking element is pressurized by a force storage member.

Detachable and Reversible Cooler Lid Hinge Assembly
20220112750 · 2022-04-14 ·

The invention consists of a novel cooler hinge construction that allows for the cooler's lid to be removed and reattached easily. One benefit of such an assembly is that either side of the lid may be used facing upwards, depending on what the user is doing at the time. The lid is attached to the hinge by a clamp assembly that pinches the lid and holds it in place. The jaws of the clamp are housed within identical grooves on the top and bottom of the lid, allowing the lid to be pulled out of the clamp when the cooler is open and to be subsequently reattached by sliding the lid back into the clamp. This functionality allows for the lid to be removed and reattached easily, but also holds it securely in place when the cooler is closed because the lid is unable to move laterally. The clamp also serves as a controlled fail point for the invention, allowing the lid to break away before the hinge or clamp are damaged.

Hinge assembly

A hinge assembly is designed to reduce the number of details in the hinge assembly and to simplify the construction of the hinge assembly. The hinge assembly includes an arm having a length with a pivot post on a first end of the arm and an arm lock on an opposite second end of the arm. An internally screw threaded hole extends through the arm block. The plate is attached to the second end of the arm. The plate has a plate surface configured for attachment to a ceiling panel and an opposite adjustment surface. A ridge extends across the adjustment surface and a slot extends through the ridge. The arm block is positioned adjacent the ridge with the internally screw threaded hole of the arm block aligned with the slot through the ridge. An externally screw threaded rod extends through the slot and is screw threaded into the internally screw threaded hole through the arm block. The externally screw threaded rod is turned in opposite directions to alternatively lock the arm to the plate, and release the arm from the plate for adjustable positioning of the plate relative to the arm.

A furniture fitting includes a first fitting part for fastening to a furniture body and a second fitting part for fastening to a movably mounted furniture part. The two fitting parts can be pivotally interconnected, and at least one of the two fitting parts is designed to be arranged in a recess in the furniture body or the movably mounted furniture part. The furniture fitting includes a fastening device for fastening the fitting part in the recess, the fastening device including a rotatably mounted actuating element and at least two fastening elements to be recessed in or pressed against a wall of the recess. A coupling device can convert a rotation of the actuating element into a recessing and/or pressing movement of the fastening elements. The actuating element and the fastening elements are arranged on the same side of the fitting part and spaced apart in a longitudinal direction.

Furniture hinge

The invention relates to a furniture hinge for the articulated securing of a furniture door, leaf or similar to a furniture body, in particular to a frame of a furniture body, comprising a mounting plate for securing the furniture hinge to the furniture body and a hinge body for securing the furniture hinge to the furniture door, leaf or similar, wherein a pivotally mounted hinge arm is associated with the hinge body and wherein the hinge arm can be secured to the mounting plate directly or via at least one connection element secured to the hinge arm. In addition, the hinge arm can be secured to the mounting plate indirectly or directly via a connection system that can be closed without tools. The furniture hinge permits a quick and secure mounting of a furniture door, leaf or similar to a furniture body.

Simply fitted furniture hinge

The invention relates to a furniture hinge having a mounting body and a hinge body with a hinge arm for fastening, in a hinged manner, a furniture door or the like to a furniture carcass. According to the invention, at least one section of the hinge arm or of a component connected to the hinge arm has at least one guide section which interacts with a sliding guide on the mounting body in such a manner that the hinge arm or the component connected to the hinge arm is mounted displaceably in the sliding guide along an installation direction and is retained transversely to the installation direction and that a movement of the hinge arm against the installation direction can be blocked when an installation position is reached. The invention further relates to an associated method for mounting a furniture door in a hinged manner. The furniture hinge and the method permit the installation of a furniture door, flap or the like to a furniture carcass in a fast and reliable fashion.

Hinge bracket

A hinge bracket assembly includes an anchor plate. A retention member extends perpendicular to the anchor plate. The anchor plate defines a first receiving aperture. A hinge plate is aligned with the anchor plate and includes a hinge arm and a protrusion. The protrusion extends from an edge of the hinge plate opposite the hinge arm. The hinge plate defines a second receiving aperture aligned with the first receiving aperture when the protrusion is received by a space defined by the retention member. A locking arm is rotatable between an unlocked position and a locked position and is configured to be at least partially received by the first and second receiving apertures to couple the anchor plate and the hinge plate.
