A closing hinge device includes a fixed element, a movable element and a pair of counteracting elastic members. One of the movable element or fixed element includes a generally box-shaped hinge body with a pair of working chambers to slidably house the counteracting elastic members. The other of the movable element or fixed element includes a pivot having a cylindrical portion that includes a pair of substantially equal grooves angularly spaced at 180 and each having a helical portion, the grooves communicating with each other to define a single guide element passing through the cylindrical portion. The box-shaped hinge body includes elongated slots, a pin being inserted through the single guide element and through the elongated slots to slide therethrough, and the counteracting elastic members act on the pin to promote the automatic returning of the closing element from the open position to the closed position.

A multi-joint link hinge includes a hinge bracket, a plurality of side portions, a link module, and a door bracket coupled to the link module. The hinge bracket includes a base portion that defines a plurality of screw coupling holes at a vertical surface of the base portion, and a plurality of side portions that extend from the base portion in a horizontal direction and are spaced apart from each other in a vertical direction. The link module includes a plurality of links that are coupled to the plurality of side portions along an axis that extends in the vertical direction, where the plurality of links is disposed between the plurality of side portions.

Techniques for fabric lamination to a component are described. According to various implementations, a single piece of fabric is laminated to a moveable component and to an apparatus to which the moveable component is attached. Generally, lamination of fabric to a moveable component and portions of an associated apparatus can enhance a user experience in a variety of ways. Embodiments may also be employed to cut fabric from around a surface component of an apparatus.

A spring system that translates linear motion into rotary motion near or on the hinge line of a hinge assembly.

A door hinge for a laboratory instrument door, the door hinge comprising a hollow body with a first longitudinal axis and a curved side wall comprising a track. At least a part of the track is inclined relative to the first longitudinal axis. The door hinge further comprises a linear guiding element with a second longitudinal axis parallel to the first longitudinal axis. At least a part of the linear guiding element is arranged in the hollow. The linear guiding element and the hollow body are rotatable against each other. The door hinge further comprises a body comprising a protruding pin. The body is movably attached to the linear guiding element so that the body is movable in two opposite directions along the second longitudinal axis and the protruding pin is movable on the track.

A flap including a structure and a door hinged to the structure by means of a hinge, where the hinge defines a hinge axis around which the door is rotationally movable with respect to the structure, where the door is movable from a vertical closing position to a horizontal opening position under the action of the force of gravity, where the flap further includes damping means configured to dampen the rotation motion of the door with respect to the structure, where the hinge defines a housing compartment therein, closed or partially closed in the direction transverse to the hinge axis, and where the damping means are housed inside the housing compartment.

Provided in the present utility model is a hinge device, including a first hinge leaf provided with first shaft sleeves, a second hinge leaf provided with second shaft sleeves, a rotating shaft, and flanged bearings, where both the first shaft sleeves and the second shaft sleeves are sleeved on the rotating shaft, each flanged bearing includes a bearing body and a housing in which the bearing body is disposed, the housing is further provided with a connecting portion, and the connecting portions are fixedly connected to either the first shaft sleeves or the second shaft sleeves. According to the hinge device, relative rotation between the first hinge leaf and the second hinge leaf is improved by the flanged bearings, so that the flanged bearings can be removed together with the first hinge leaf or the second hinge leaf, thus avoiding the risk that the flanged bearings fall off.
