The present invention pertains to the technological sector of household items and refers, more specifically, to a passive safety device applied to doors in order to prevent them, when closing unexpectedly, from causing accidents to body parts of humans or animals. Since the safety devices applied for this purpose present the obstacle of being removed or disarmed when the user wishes to close the door (7), the present invention presents a passive combination (1) endowed with rod (2) and fastening element (4) that should be attached to the handle (5) present on the door (7) in such a way as to move together with it (5). This causes the rod (2) endowed or not with a stop (3) to stand between the door (7) and the frame (6) passively in order to prevent the unexpected closing of the door and preserve the security space (8) preventing body parts of people or animals from being crushed.

A hinge for a bi-fold door is integrated with a pair of stiles. Each stile has a hinge flange integrated to the stile. Opposing stiles with opposing and aligned hinge flanges collectively create an integral hinge assembly that may be useful in thermal doors employing one or more thermal breaks.

A protective enclosure for a food protection system includes a first hinge member, a second hinge member rotatably coupled to the first hinge member, and a coupler selectively repositionable relative to the first hinge member between an engaged position and a disengaged position. In the engaged position, the coupler engages the first hinge member to limit rotation of the coupler relative to the first hinge member. In the disengaged position, the coupler is free to rotate relative to the first hinge member. The coupler is rotatably coupled to the second hinge member such that (a) rotation of the coupler relative to the second hinge member in a first rotational direction is limited and (b) the coupler is free to rotate relative to the second hinge member in a second rotational direction opposite the first rotational direction.

A lifter plate assembly for a window of a motor vehicle has a plastic main body. The main body includes a pair of rail guide hooks formed therein. The rail guide hooks are laterally spaced from one another and configured for sliding receipt of window regulator rails therein. A window clamp plate formed of the main body plastic extends in spaced relation from the main body to provide a receptacle configured for receipt of an edge of the window. A fastener assembly includes an elongate threaded member and a nut. The elongate threaded member extends through an opening in the main body and through an opening in the window clamp plate. At least one of the elongate threaded member and the nut is rotatable relative to the other to draw the window clamp plate and the main body toward one another to clamp against the edge of the window.

The invention relates to a device for securing panes of glass for sliding doors, made up of a rear plate (3) on which a rolling element (2) is supported which is configured to enable the movement of the securing device (1) along a profile (F) of a sliding door (P), and a first front plate (4) and a second front plate (5) facing the rear plate (3) and able to be coupled to it, defining an intermediate mortise (7) for securing a pane of glass (H). Said securing device (1) comprises a third front plate (6) facing the rear plate (3) and able to be coupled to it, arranged between the first front plate (4) and the second front plate (5).

A hinge system is described having at least one first hinge leaf with a single bore, suitable for fixing in an elongated opening or a row of openings in a thin wall, such as a door leaf or door frame of a metal cabinet or housing, wherein the first hinge leaf comes to lie against the margins of the breakthrough or the row of breakthroughs on one side of the thin and with a plate which comes to lie against the margins of the breakthrough or the breakthroughs on the other side of the thin wall, and with a screwed connection which presses together the two surfaces lying on the marginal surfaces, wherein, in the region of the breakthrough, projections extend from the hinge leaf or the plate which extend into or through the breakthroughs, wherein recesses are formed in the plate or the hinge leaf to receive the projections, wherein the projections are guided by the surfaces of the inner edges of the breakthroughs, wherein the threaded bore for the free end of screw passed through a projection provided with a bore.

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.

An adjustable hinge assembly includes a first hinge leaf, a second hinge leaf hinge-coupled to the first hinge leaf, and a hinge pin. The first hinge leaf defines a first knuckle hole corresponding to the hinge pin, and the second hinge leaf defines a second knuckle hole corresponding to the hinge pin. The first hinge leaf is hinge-coupled to the second hinge leaf by the hinge pin, the first knuckle hole, and the second knuckle hole. The hinge pin is movable within the first knuckle hole to adjust a position of the first hinge leaf relative to the second hinge leaf.

A fence system with a gate assembly mounted in a gap between first and second fence portions of the fence system. The gate assembly can be mounted directly to a post of the first or second fence portions without being mounted to pickets or backer rails of the fence portions. A hinge may be used to mount the gate assembly, where the hinge has a clamp fixed to a support which is fixed to a first member of the hinge. A second member of the hinge can be mounted to the gate assembly with the first and second members being rotatably fixed together, thereby allowing rotation of the gate assembly between open, closed, and various other positions.

A guide system for guiding a furniture door, in particular a folding door or folding-sliding door, relative to a fixed furniture part includes a first guide rail and a running carriage which can be connected to the furniture door and which has a rolling body via which the running carriage is movably mounted on the first guide rail. The first guide rail has a running surface for the rolling body of the running carriage, and the first guide rail is assembled in the longitudinal direction from a first rail piece and one second rail piece. The two rail pieces can be releasably connected via a connecting piece on which there is formed a portion of the running surface for the rolling body of the running carriage.
