Disclosed is a hinge assembly for rotatably mounting a trunk lid to a vehicle body. The hinge assembly for a trunk lid of a vehicle, includes a hinge arm configured to be coupled to the trunk lid, a hinge bracket configured to be coupled to a vehicle body and having a hinge shaft, the hinge arm being rotatably coupled to the hinge bracket, a torsion bar configured to be coupled to the hinge arm and to provide an elastic force to the hinge arm in an opening direction, and a cushion assembly provided at one end of the hinge arm adjacent to the hinge shaft and configured to adjust a rotation speed of the hinge arm in response to the elastic force of the torsion bar.

A door operator includes a housing and at least one linearly guided piston in the housing. A roller carrier is disposed in the piston and includes a rotatably movable supported pressure roller. The piston is formed as a deep drawn structural component and includes a bottom and a circumferential walling. The support and the axial guiding of the roller carrier with a pressure roller within the piston can be realized in a simple and cost effective manner. Furthermore, an aperture is provided in the bottom of the piston, through which the pressure roller protrudes to the outside beyond the bottom of the piston.

Provided is a device for opening and closing a sliding door, of which collinearly placed doors slide respectively to overlap each other such that the sliding door is opened or closed. The device includes a sliding portion formed on a surface on which doors come into contact with each other in order to prevent the doors from interfering with each other when the doors are opened; a pair of rail frames formed on a top surface of the furniture and provided with a rail protruding upwardly such that each door is slid forward and backward on the rail, the rail having both sides in which bending portions are formed; and rotational members, each of which is installed to one side of a connection bracket to be rotatable in a curved section of the bending portion while being lifted and slid on the rail.

A control method includes controlling a lever, a pusher and a motor so as to arrange the same in a correct position when electric power is supplied to the home appliance, or the user turns on the home appliance. Abnormalities involving an automatic opening of the door through changes in a return/stop switch and an opening sensing switch while the motor operates so as to open the door may be confirmed.

A vehicle spring assembly includes a cylindrical hollow cover defining an opening at each end. A spring is disposed within the cover, and fittings disposed at each end of the cover are configured to contain the spring within the cover. Each fitting defines an aperture. An elongated damper extends in part within the spring along a direction of elongation. The damper includes a pair of opposing end sections each extending through and projecting from the aperture of one of the fittings. Each end section defines a groove. One end section is connectable to a vehicle tailgate, and the other end section is connectable to a vehicle body. Fasteners securing the fittings to the cover are disposed adjacent the grooves defined in the damper end sections.
