A door drive for a motor vehicle door or motor vehicle flap, which is provided with an electromotive drive, a transmission downstream of the drive, and a force-transmission element. The force-transmission element is operatively connected to a leaf of the motor vehicle door or motor vehicle flap. An output element of the transmission and the force-transmission element are coupled by a toothing with compensation for play. According to the invention, the output element and/or the force-transmission element are not only designed to be moveable for play compensation, but can also be permanently fixed after the compensation for play.

A hinge and a mobile terminal to resolve poor use effect of a foldable electronic device. The hinge includes a main body, and a first folding assembly and a second folding assembly that are symmetrically disposed along the main body. When the first folding assembly and the second folding assembly are rotated toward each other, a length of the hinge can be extended, and an accommodation space for accommodating the flexible display can be formed. When the first folding assembly and the second folding assembly are rotated away from each other, the length of the hinge can be reduced, and a support surface for supporting the flexible display can be formed, so that the flexible display cannot be stretched, compressed, or the like during folding and unfolding, thereby improving the use effect and safety of the mobile terminal.

A sliding window for a building includes a stationary frame, an opening leaf, a motorized drive device, a fittings system and a locking control device. The motorized drive device includes an electromechanical actuator, a flexible element and a drive arm. The flexible element drives movement of the opening leaf with respect to the stationary frame when the actuator is electrically activated. The arm is connected both to a frame of the opening leaf and to the flexible element. The locking control device is configured to collaborate with a lock of the fittings system and to be actuated by the flexible element when the actuator is electrically activated. The drive arm supports the locking control device. The fittings system also includes an errorproofing system. The locking control device is configured to actuate the lock following activation of the errorproofing system and when the actuator is electrically activated.

An apparatus can include a housing. The housing can define a cavity. The housing can include a barrel cam profile. The apparatus can include an anchor. The anchor can be at least partially disposed within the cavity. The anchor can move between a first position and a second position. The apparatus can include a drive body. The drive body can be disposed within the cavity. The apparatus can include a spring. The spring can be at least partially disposed between the anchor and the drive body. The apparatus can include a shaft to interface with the drive body. The shaft can translate the anchor. The spring of the barrel cam profile can rotate the anchor between the first position and the second position.

A vehicle is disclosed that includes: a vehicle body having an outer body panel; a tailgate that is movable in relation to the vehicle body via a tailgate actuation system between a closed position and an open position; and a bracket that is configured to receive the tailgate actuation system. The bracket includes a main body portion and an appendage that extends transversely from the main body portion such that the appendage engages the vehicle body to inhibit rotational deflection of the tailgate actuation system and, thus, lateral flexure of the outer body panel during movement of the tailgate.

A domestic appliance, for example a washing machine, comprises a body having an access opening to a process chamber arranged inside the body, a door which is movably attached to the body and which closes the access opening in a closed position, a door-closing mechanism for holding the door closed in its closed position and a door-opening mechanism arranged on the body or on the door, having a push slider, which is movable between a retracted position and a deployed position, and a drive unit for driving the push slider. A transfer of the push slider out of the retracted position into the deployed position effects opening of the closed door, the push slider acts in a pressure-exerting manner on the door or on the body and thereby overcomes a holding-closed action of the door-closing mechanism and opens the closed door.

A gate system includes a cam sled having a cam plate configured to slide along a rail. The gate system also includes a cam follower engaged with the cam plate and coupled to a gate assembly. Actuation of a power source to move the cam sled along the rail causes the gate assembly to rotate about an axis and mechanically lock into position in open or closed orientations of the gate assembly.

A vehicle and a window assembly include a window movable between a closed and open position. The assembly includes an arm movable between a first and second position. The window is disposed in the closed position when the arm is in the first position and the window disposed in the open position when the arm is in the second position. The arm includes an extension fixed thereto such that the arm and the extension both move concurrently about a first pivot point. The assembly includes a connector coupled to the extension at a second pivot point. The arm is coupled to the window through the connector. The first and second pivot points are spaced from each other. The connector is coupled to the window such that movement of the arm moves the connector about the second pivot point which causes the window to move between the closed and open positions.

Actuating device for a vehicle part movable relative to a body of a vehicle, and in particular a vehicle door or a vehicle hatch, including a drive assembly having a drive unit and a drive element driven by the drive unit, and an actuating element which can be displaced relative to the drive assembly along a displacement axis by means of the drive unit, where the actuating element is connected to a carriage assembly which is in threaded engagement with a spindle, where the spindle can be driven rotationally about an axis of rotation by the drive unit, and where in that a central axis of the drive element is oriented at an angle to a plane which is defined by the displacement axis and the axis of rotation of the spindle.

A hinge and a mobile terminal to resolve poor use effect of a foldable electronic device. The hinge includes a main body, and a first folding assembly and a second folding assembly that are symmetrically disposed along the main body. When the first folding assembly and the second folding assembly are rotated toward each other, a length of the hinge can be extended, and an accommodation space for accommodating the flexible display can be formed. When the first folding assembly and the second folding assembly are rotated away from each other, the length of the hinge can be reduced, and a support surface for supporting the flexible display can be formed, so that the flexible display cannot be stretched, compressed, or the like during folding and unfolding, thereby improving the use effect and safety of the mobile terminal.
