A trailer door that opens by hinging downward to double as a ramp for loading/unloading cargo and an improved assistive means by which such doors are opened and closed is provided. An assembly comprising a ramp pull point that is set apart from the plane of the ramp/door, and/or is moved outward from its edge, changes the physics of the tension required for the assistive lift force for any given ramp/door which in turn allows the spring or cabling counter-weight mechanism to be deployed substantially removing it from blocking the sides of the ramp/door.

A concealed door hinge is disclosed having a high security that cannot be accessed from outside a cabinet on which the hinge is used. The door hinge is capable of being mounted to a thin (0.056 to 0.25 inches thick) metal door of a cabinet without using any additional fastening means.

An adjustable hidden or invisible hinge for mounting a door-panel or window sash to a frame is provided that is useable for either rebated or flush mount applications using the same hinge. This is possible due to the use of two different types of arm systems that connect the frame part of the hinge to the sash or door part. These include a rotational lever arm system that allows for 180° guided rotational movement which is combined with a translational arm system that at the same time superimposes a translational movement of the sash movable body relative to the sash body.

An electronic gaming machine that includes a cabinet, a display, and a hinge assembly coupled therebetween. The hinge assembly includes a first bracket coupled to the cabinet, a second bracket coupled to the display, and at least four pairs of interdigitated members extending between the first bracket and the second bracket. The hinge assembly is selectively expandable and retractable between a retracted position and an expanded position, and the hinge assembly is configured to swing the display from a lowered position to a raised position as the hinge assembly is expanded from the retracted position to the expanded position.

A furniture fitting for moving a movable furniture part relative to a furniture carcass includes a housing to be connected to the furniture carcass, and an actuating mechanism arranged or can be arranged at least in part within the housing. The actuating mechanism can be connected to the movable furniture part, and the actuating mechanism can swivel about at least one rotation axis. The actuating mechanism and/or at least one inner side of the housing facing the actuating mechanism has a local elevation, by which, at least in a relative position of the actuating mechanism to the housing, a play between the actuating mechanism and the inner side of the housing facing the actuating mechanism is at least halved in comparison to a region surrounding the local elevation.

A furniture fitting includes a first fitting part for fastening to a furniture body and a second fitting part for fastening to a movably mounted furniture part. The two fitting parts can be pivotally interconnected, and at least one of the two fitting parts is designed to be arranged in a recess in the furniture body or the movably mounted furniture part. The furniture fitting includes a fastening device for fastening the fitting part in the recess, the fastening device including a rotatably mounted actuating element and at least two fastening elements to be recessed in or pressed against a wall of the recess. A coupling device can convert a rotation of the actuating element into a recessing and/or pressing movement of the fastening elements. The actuating element and the fastening elements are arranged on the same side of the fitting part and spaced apart in a longitudinal direction.

A structure for shielding a rail includes a rail configured to be mounted on a vehicle body, a drive unit movably connected to the rail, a swing arm rotatably connected to the drive unit and a sliding door, a shade bar configured to be in contact with the swing arm and connected to the drive unit so as to be movable in a first direction in which the shade bar moves close to the rail or a second direction in which the shade bar moves away from the rail, and a cover having a first end connected to the shade bar, the cover configured to open or close a space in which the rail is positioned in accordance with a movement of the drive unit.

A furniture hinge includes a body-side main element and a hinge cup, which is pivotally guided relative to the base element and which can be secured to a movable furniture part. The main element and the hinge cup are connected together via a lever mechanism. The furniture hinge is configured so that the lever mechanism has at least two levers, each of which is mounted on the hinge cup in a pivotal manner about a pivot axis that is aligned perpendicularly to the pivot axis of the hinge cup and each of which is provided with a toothing that meshes with another toothing arranged in the hinge cup.

A lock mechanism for interengaging two relatively movable components includes a bolt mounted within a first component and interengageable with a second component when the first and second components are in a predetermined position relative to each other and the bolt is extended. A magnetically-releasable latch mechanism is positioned to latch the bolt in a retracted position and is mounted for movement between a biased latch engaging position and a latch releasing position in a non-common direction of movement of the bolt. A first magnet is disposed within a trigger being translatable along an axis parallel to a longitudinal axis of the bolt and a second magnet is positioned to displace the latch mechanism to the latch releasing position as the trigger is caused to translate vertically when the first component is in the predetermined position relative to the second component to permit displacement of the bolt to the extended position.

A concealed hinge with V-shaped rotating shafts includes an upper leaf (6) and an upper support arm (4) that are hinged to a secondary hinge (1), and a lower leaf (7) and a lower support arm (5) that are hinged to a primary hinge (8). The upper leaf (6) is hinged to the lower leaf (7). The upper support arm (4) is hinged to the lower support arm (5). A hinged joint at an end of the upper leaf (6) is connected, by means of a shaft (2), to a hinged seat secured to the secondary hinge (1). A hinged joint at one end of the lower leaf (7) is connected, by means of a shaft (2), to a hinged seat secured to the primary hinge (8), and a hinged joint at the other end of the lower leaf (7) is connected to the upper leaf (6) by means of a shared shaft (3). One end of the upper support arm (4) is connected, by means of a side shaft (10), to the hinged seat secured to the secondary hinge (1), and a hinged joint at the other end of the upper support arm (4) is connected to the lower support arm (5) by means of a longitudinal shared shaft (11). A hinged joint at an end of the lower support arm (5) is connected, by means of a side shaft (10), to the hinged seat secured to the primary hinge (8). The concealed hinge is reasonable in structure design, simple and convenient to mount, safe and capable of preventing burglary, extensive in application, small in space usage and convenient to mount and transport, and has good appearance.
