Exemplary embodiments of methods and apparatuses for a two part mounting bracket for supporting a track or the like is provided. In some exemplary embodiments, a mounting bracket is provided, including a first portion including a front surface having a substantially flat front top surface, a substantially flat front bottom surface and a lip extending outward and perpendicular to the flat front top surface and flat front bottom surface that is provided between the flat front top surface and flat front bottom surface, and a second portion including a front surface having a substantially flat front top surface and a substantially flat front bottom surface that is configured to connect to the first portion, such that the lip provides an enclosed support between the first portion and second portion to support a track.

A hinge bracket to couple a hinge to a lid of a laundry appliance comprising: an elongated slot receiving a connector portion of a hinge; first fastener receivers extending from the elongated slot laterally inward toward a midline of a cabinet of the laundry appliance and configured to cooperate with fastener receivers of the hinge to receive fasteners that fasten the hinge to the hinge bracket; second fastener receivers on an opposite side of the hinge bracket as the first fastener receivers and configured to cooperate with the fastener receivers through a C-shaped lip of the lid to receive fasteners fastening the lid to the hinge bracket; and an indented portion formed laterally away from the elongated slot and facing the curved portion of the hinge. The laundry appliance can further include a hinge receiver to couple the hinge to a cabinet.

A solar-powered window control device having a photovoltaic cell for powering automated window opening and closing. The device can be retrofitted onto any exterior exposure gear-driven mechanism without requiring special skills for installation. A wireless-enabled motorized window control for opening and closing the window is contained within a single enclosure and mounts by engagement with an existing window's operator gear and casement operator and can be controlled with a microcontroller for smarthome integration.

A furniture fitting includes a first fitting portion to be fixed to a furniture carcass, and a second fitting portion to be fixed to a movable furniture part, the two fitting portions being pivotally connected by a hinge axis member. The first fitting portion can be inserted into a recess in the furniture carcass, and/or the second fitting portion can be inserted into a recess in the movable furniture part. The first fitting portion and/or the second fitting portion includes a longitudinal housing having two end sections spaced apart. The hinge axis member is arranged on a first end section of the housing, and the first fitting portion and/or the second fitting portion includes a fastening device having a movably-mounted actuating element formed as a rotatable screw. By actuating the actuating element, at least one fitting portion can be fixed within the recess on both end sections of the housing.

A sliding door roller assembly includes a roller housing being at least partially disposed within an outer housing moveable relative to the roller housing and at least one roller wheel in a direction perpendicular to a rotational axis of the at least one roller wheel. At least one resilient member is positioned at an end of the outer housing, and includes a fixed termination section coupled to an end member of the outer housing, a compliant section extending from the fixed termination section, a curved engagement section, and a resilient section between the compliant section and the curved engagement section and pivotable about the compliant section. The at least one resilient member is flexible from a first position to a second position when the curved engagement section mates with an inner surface of a slot defining a bottom edge of a panel secured to the outer housing to provide a holding force between the resilient member and the inner surface of the slot.

A driver for a vehicle window regulator, having a pane holder for fastening to a window pane, and a rail slider with a guide region and a sliding insert lying therein. The pane holder has an approximately cylindrical connecting section which is inserted along an axial direction into a holder section of the rail slider and is surrounded by said holder section at least in sections along a circumferential direction, and the connecting section has a receptacle and the holder section has a passage opening, which receptacle and passage opening are arranged aligned with each other along a radial direction, and a joining pin is inserted into the passage opening and the receptacle.

A hinge bracket assembly includes an appliance wrapper defining a first receiving space extending in a first direction, a second receiving space extending in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction, and a third receiving space extending in a third direction oriented at an acute angle relative to the first direction. An anchor plate is engaged with the appliance wrapper and includes a retention member received by the first receiving space, a first flange received by the second receiving space, and a second flange received by the third receiving space. A hinge plate is coupled with the anchor plate and includes a protrusion received by a slot defined by the retention member. The appliance wrapper is positioned between the anchor and hinge plates. A locking arm is selectively engaged with the anchor and hinge plates and is rotatable between an unlocked position and a locked position.

A method for producing a wall for a piece of furniture involves providing two panel-form core halves, of which at least one has at least one aperture extending only along a portion of a side surface of the core half. A fitting or fitting housing is inserted into the at least one aperture and the two core halves are joining together to form a composite element enclosing the fitting or fitting housing. Side surfaces of the two core halves are located one upon the other. A narrow-surface coating is applied to at least one end surface of the composite element, the end surface being oriented transversely to the side surface. An opening is formed in a portion of the at least one end surface. The opening extends as far as the fitting, or the fitting housing.

A clamp (1) for attaching a component (3) to a back plate (2), said clamp (1) comprises two clamp members (11, 12), the clamp members (11, 12) being connected by a fastener (13) configured to apply a force at least in a direction which brings the clamp members (11, 12) closer together, and wherein each clamp member (11, 12) is configured to cooperate with a retaining shoulder (31) of the component (3).

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.
