An overtravel hinge for a sliding door of a vehicle. The overtravel hinge expands from a collapsed condition, to a partially deployed condition, and to a fully deployed condition. The hinge includes a four bar linkage utilizing an arm to control movement of the overtravel hinge between the collapsed condition and the fully deployed condition. The overtravel hinge, in one embodiment, is used to modify or retrofit a known original equipment manufacturer vehicle.

A first hinge 11 comprises: a first turning shaft portion 111 which extends vertically; a first supporting portion 112 which is extended longitudinally and laterally, and supports the bottom of the first turning shaft portion 111; and a first mounting portion 113 which extends downwardly from the rear end of the first supporting portion 112. A second hinge 12 comprises: a second turning shaft portion 121 which extends vertically; a second supporting portion 122 which is extended longitudinally and laterally, and supports the top of the second turning shaft portion 121; and a second mounting portion 123 which extends upwardly from the rear end of the second supporting portion 122. The first supporting portion 112 is disposed above the second supporting portion 122. The first mounting portion 113 is disposed below the second supporting portion 122. The second mounting portion 123 is disposed above the first supporting portion 112.

A building block includes a plurality of panel elements that are each rotatable relative to each other one of the plurality of panel elements; a connecting pin that passes through and rotatably connects the plurality of panel elements to each other; and a plurality of connectors, each connector rotatably attached to a respective panel element, where each one of the panel elements includes at least on locking feature configured to create a releasably fixed connection between adjacent panel elements.

A kit provides an anchor for an exercise system. The kit includes a mount having spaced-apart first and second knuckles configured (i) to span interlaced knuckles of first and second leaves of a standard hinge assembly that mounts a door in a frame in an opening, the interlaced set of knuckles defining a passageway for receiving an original hinge pin, and (ii) to define a channel having a diameter sufficient to accommodate the diameter of the hinge pin. The kit also includes a replacement hinge pin, which, when inserted into the channel and the passageway, reaches the first and second knuckles of the mount defining the channel, and transforms the mount to the anchor.

A work surface for a vehicle includes a first leaf, a second leaf, and a dual-stage hinge pivotably coupling the first and second leafs. The dual-stage hinge includes a first pivot axis and a second pivot axis.

A cap for mounting on a hinge is described. The cap includes: a body defining a first attaching portion for attaching the body to a hinge at a first location; a second attaching portion defined by the body for attaching the body to the hinge at a second location; and a channel defined by the body wherein the body is configured to secure a rod to the hinge by trapping the rod in the channel between the body and the hinge and the channel is located between the first and second attaching portions.
