A furniture drive for moving a furniture part movably supported relative to a furniture carcass. The furniture drive includes a carrier to be fixed to the furniture carcass, an actuating arm pivotally supported relative to the carrier about a pivoting axis between a closed position and a maximum opening position, and an adjustment device configured to adjust a position of the maximum opening position of the at least one actuating arm. The adjustment device includes a pivoting member configured to be moved in at least two pivoting positions relative to the actuating arm, and the pivoting member is configured to distance the actuating arm in the at least two pivoting positions to a different extent from an abutment arranged on the carrier when the actuating arm is arranged in the maximum opening position.

A door keeper, for keeping a door opening angle of a door within a predetermined angle, includes a hinge bracket attached to a support structure; a keeper plate having a bracket side end portion pivotally mounted to the hinge bracket, a door side end portion, and a keeper guide slot having a door side slot end portion disposed proximate to the door side end portion of the keeper plate, the keeper guide slot extending from the door side slot end portion to an opposite slot end portion disposed at a location between the bracket side end portion and the door side end portion of the keeper plate; and a keeper member movably disposed in the keeper guide slot and fixedly attached to a lower part of the door. An opening motion of the door stops when the door side slot end portion engages the keeper member.

An appliance includes an outer cabinet having a front aperture for accessing a processing space. A door selectively engages the front aperture in a closed position to enclose the processing space. A hinge includes a cabinet mount attached to the outer cabinet and having a stop that defines an open position of the door. A hinge pin extends through the cabinet mount to define a rotational axis of the hinge. A sheet metal flange is press fit onto the hinge pin and is fixedly attached to the door. The sheet metal flange is wrapped around the hinge pin and is attached to the door via fasteners. The pin includes a protrusion that selectively engages the stop of the cabinet mount in the open position.
