Hinge, leaf and associated methods
An anti-ligature hinge for a door and associated methods and systems are provided. The anti-ligature hinge has a hinge bracket operatively associable with a support and a hinge member operatively associable with a leaf. The hinge member is connectable to the hinge bracket and rotatable relative to the hinge bracket about an axis of rotation. The hinge member can disconnect from the hinge bracket in response to a threshold force acting along or transverse to the axis or rotation. This hinge is for eliminating ligature points in doors where vulnerable individuals are to be left unsupervised.

REFRIGERATOR
A refrigerator includes a cabinet, a door and a hinge assembly connecting the door and the cabinet. A sensor detects an opening angle of the door. The sensor includes: a first component and a second component, where one of the first component and the second component is a magnetic element, and the other one is a magnetic sensing element. The first component is provided at the hinge assembly, and the second component is provided at the door. This enables the magnetic sensing element to accurately sense a magnetic field of the magnetic element, and simplify a structure of the cabinet.
COMPONENT RACK FOR A DISPLAY
A component rack for a display that includes: a frame, that includes: a base, a first wall, and a second wall arranged to form a U-shaped cavity; and a plurality of component modules located within the cavity and adapted to be coupled to the frame, wherein the frame and an inboard side of each of the plurality of component modules define an electronics chamber region, wherein the frame is adapted to carry modular electronic devices.
Adjustable door assembly for a shower enclosure area
A door assembly comprising a hinge post and a hinge stile, the hinge post and hinge stile configured for a first mating configuration and a second mating configuration. The first and second mating configurations enable adjustable placement of a shower door with the hinge post forming an extension below the bottom of the hinge stile in both configurations.

Corner fitting with increased clamping force
A corner fitting for a door element to be disposed on a center of rotation or an axis, including first and second fitting elements, which, at least sectionwise, each include a locating portion for the abutment against the door element, and are interconnectable while restraining the door element in a restraining area. The fitting elements delimit the restraining area, including at least one attaching unit for reliably clamping the door element between the fitting elements. The attaching unit includes first attaching means, disposed at the first fitting element and/or at the second fitting element, and second attaching means, disposed at the second fitting element and/or at the first fitting element. The attaching means are non-positively and/or positively interconnected. The first attaching means includes an engagement area, into which the second attaching means acts, wherein the engagement area extends at least partially into the restraining area via the locating.

Refrigerator
Provided is a refrigerator including a cabinet having a storage compartment provided therein, a main door pivotably mounted at the cabinet for opening and closing the storage compartment, an auxiliary storage compartment mounted at a rear of the main door, and an auxiliary door pivotably mounted over a front of the main door for opening and closing the auxiliary storage compartment. A first hinge bracket may be fixed to an upper end of the cabinet, the first hinge bracket including a rotation shaft that is coupled to an upper portion of the main door. A second hinge bracket may be fixed to an upper portion of the sub door, the second hinge bracket including a rotation shaft that is coupled to the upper portion of the main door. The rotation shaft of the second hinge bracket may be positioned more forward than the rotation shaft of the first hinge bracket.
Refrigerator with hinge assembly having an external hinge pin
A refrigerator is provided herein including a cabinet and a door. At least one hinge assembly is configured to hinge the door to the cabinet. The at least one hinge assembly includes a mounting block coupled to the door, a hinge bracket coupled to the cabinet, and a hinge pin disposed between the mounting block and the hinge bracket and coupled thereto such that the entirety of the hinge pin is external to the door.
