The present invention is directed to a stepless sliding doors system, comprising: two sliding doors (10), at least one of them comprising: two vertical poles (30); means (50) for rotating each of the vertical poles (30); to each side of the vertical poles (30) is firmly connected a hand-connector (36); each of the hand-connectors (36) is pivotally connected to a rail-cart (18) having two rollers (42); each of the rail-carts (18) comprises a horizontal hinge (58) disposed between the rollers (42), and a vertical springy hinge (70), for applying pulling or pushing force of the rollers on a rail thereof, thereby allowing placing the sliding doors of the system in the same plane when in the closed state of the doors, and shifting the doors one along the other in the open state thereof, and additionally preventing the wheels to deviate from a rail in the case of slight deformations.

An accessory device for an electronic device is disclosed. The accessory device includes multiple sections, with one section holding the electronic device, and another section having an input mechanism, such as a keyboard. The accessory device includes a hinge assembly that allows relative movement of the sections with respect each other. An additional hinge assembly is integrated with the section carrying the electronic device, and provides additional flexibility and range of motion of the section, thereby allowing a user to position the electronic device at multiple different angles relative to the section carrying the input mechanism. Also, each hinge assembly may include multiple roller and spacer elements, as well as a retention structure passing through each roller element and spacer element. The retention structure can provide tension to increase the frictional force between the roller and spacer elements, and/or provide counterbalance to offset the weight of the electronic device.

A device is proposed for moving a furniture flap received on a furniture body of a piece of furniture having a spring-force unit, which assists the opening and/or the closing of the furniture flap by a predetermined force action of the spring-force unit via an adjusting arm engaging with the furniture flap in the mounted state. According to the invention, an electrically switchable adjusting unit is provided, which is coupled to the spring-force unit in such a way that a movement of the spring-force unit into a predetermined adjustment position of the spring-force unit on the piece of furniture occurs by a switching of the adjusting unit in the mounted state of the device so that a degree of force action of the spring-force unit on the furniture flap can be adjusted in dependence on the adjustment position of the spring-force unit.

The invention relates to an assembly (1) comprising a housing with a balancing spring break protection mechanism, said assembly (1) being configured for connecting a connector (15, 42), such as a bayonet connector, of a balancing spring of a sectional door system to said assembly, said housing being for connection with a fixed structure and comprising a first housing plate (5) comprising an opening (16) for receiving a balancing axle (60) of said sectional door system, said balancing axle (60) being connected to said balancing spring, and an aperture (11) for receiving said connector (15, 42), said spring break protection mechanism comprising a bearing and ratchet wheel unit (4, 7), said ratchet wheel (4) including a shaft (50) for receiving said balancing axle (60).

A vehicle interior component is disclosed. The component may comprise a base and a door moveable along a track between open and closed positions. The door may move in a direction transverse to the track between offset and biased/centered positions. The door may comprise a spring to bias the door toward the biased position. The spring may move first and second arms of the door against the base to prevent door rotation. The door may move along a biased path and first and second offset paths parallel to the biased path. The component may comprise a mechanism configured to move the door from the open position to the closed position along the offset paths and the biased path. The component may comprise at least one of a console, a floor console, a center console, an instrument panel, a door, a cockpit, a storage compartment.

A stop position damping device (13) for a sliding element (11) that is slidably arranged in a sliding direction (R) relative to a stationary element (12) includes a structural unit (14) and an activating part (15) that are connected to one of the two elements (11), (12) respectively. The structural unit (14) has a base carrier (21) at which a damping cylinder supporting arrangement (23) is pivotably mounted with one and around a first pivot axis (S1). At the opposite free end (24), the damping cylinder supporting arrangement (23) is supported without guidance at the base carrier (21) via a biasing element (25), wherein the biasing element (25) creates a torque around the first pivot axis (S1). In an area that is closer to the free end (24) as to the first pivot axis (S1), a catch part (45) can move in a length direction (L) relative to the damping cylinder supporting arrangement (23). If an unintended collision occurs between the activating part (15) and the catch part (45), the damping cylinder supporting arrangement (23) with the catch part (45) can pivot away from the activating part (15).

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer system, and computer program product for a processor-implemented method for a movable wall process, the method including collecting a set of rules governing a size of a main room and a size of one or more sub-rooms comprising the main room, determining a starting position of a movable wall, where the movable wall separates the one or more sub-rooms, and where the starting position is determined by the set of rules, determining a location of one or more people, determining a required wall movement for the movable wall, wherein the required wall movement is determined by the set of rules and the location of one or more people, and moving the movable wall to a new position, based on the starting position and the required wall movement.

The present disclosure provides a door opening and closing device, and a refrigerator. A door of the refrigerator is rotatably connected to a refrigerator body by means of a rotating shaft, wherein the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the door, the door opening and closing device includes a connecting rod, a first drive means, a second drive means and an elastic member. The connecting rod is arranged on the door, and the connecting rod includes a first end and a second end that matches a shaft hole. The first drive means is connected to the connecting rod and is configured to drive the connecting rod to rotate. The second drive means is configured to drive the connecting rod to move towards the shaft hole, and cause the second end of the connecting rod to be inserted into the shaft hole.
