It is provided a drive device for an adjustment installation for adjusting a vehicle part, in particular a power window actuator, comprising a carrier element, a cable drum, a cable exit housing which is disposed on a first side of the carrier element and which has a first bearing element for mounting the cable drum so as to be rotatable about a first rotation axis, a drive wheel that is drivable by a motor unit, and a drive housing which is disposed on a second side, facing away from the first side, of the carrier element and which has a second bearing element for mounting the drive wheel so as to be rotatable about a second rotation axis. The cable exit housing and the drive housing are fastened to one another by way of a fastening element which acts between the first bearing element and the second bearing element.

A furniture fitting includes at least one rotatably mounted screw for fixing the furniture fitting to a furniture part. The furniture fitting further includes at least one drive element separate from the screw, and the drive element is movement-coupled to the screw and has a tool receiving device. The at least one screw is configured to be driven by rotating the tool receiving device with the aid of a tool.

A multi-joint link hinge includes a hinge bracket, a plurality of side portions, a link module, and a door bracket coupled to the link module. The hinge bracket includes a base portion that defines a plurality of screw coupling holes at a vertical surface of the base portion, and a plurality of side portions that extend from the base portion in a horizontal direction and are spaced apart from each other in a vertical direction. The link module includes a plurality of links that are coupled to the plurality of side portions along an axis that extends in the vertical direction, where the plurality of links is disposed between the plurality of side portions.

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 fire protection securing apparatus for securing a door actuator includes a retaining plate, designed for being secured to an assembly surface, in particular door, frame or wall, wherein, perpendicular to the retaining plate, an assembly axis is defined. The fire protection securing apparatus further includes an assembly plate which is secured to the retaining plate and which is designed for receiving the door actuator, and at least one closed reaction chamber arranged between the retaining plate and the assembly plate. The apparatus also includes a drive element of thermally intumescent material which is arranged in the reaction chamber and which is designed to push the assembly plate away from the retaining plate upon thermal activation.

Disclosed are integrated sliding glass panel bumper assemblies, frameless sliding glass panel systems that include one or more of the integrated sliding glass panel bumper assemblies, methods for installing the integrated sliding glass panel bumper assemblies, and methods for retrofitting a frameless sliding glass panel system with one or more of the integrated sliding glass panel bumper assemblies.

A hood for a vehicle is movable between an open position and a closed position for covering a vehicle compartment. The hood includes a hood body having an exterior facing surface and an interior facing surface. A first bracket attached to the interior facing surface of the hood body includes a bottom end having a downward opening slot a rotatable hinge attached to the vehicle in the vehicle compartment for moving the hood body between the open position and the closed position. A second bracket is attached to the vehicle in the vehicle compartment. The second bracket is attached to a distal end of the rotatable hinge and includes a weld stud extending laterally from a side of the second bracket. The first bracket is seated on the weld stud during installation of the hood.

A door lock with a reinforced fireproof effect includes a lock body mounted on a door and inner and outer operating units mounted to two sides of the door, respectively. The lock body includes inner and outer chassis made of ferrous material or stainless steel having a melting point higher than 1300° C. Inner and outer fixing members coupled with the inner and outer chassis are also made of ferrous material or stainless steel. Thus, these components of the door lock are less likely to melt during a fire, reducing the spreading speed of the fire.

A fire protection fastening device for fastening a door actuator, includes a frame with a back side, which is to be oriented to a mounting surface, in particular to a door, casing or wall, wherein a mounting axis is defined vertically to the back side. The frame is formed for arrangement between a door actuator and the mounting surface or is an integral component of the door actuator (102), at least one reaction chamber formed in the frame, wherein the frame delimits the reaction chamber on the entire circumference. The reaction chamber is open on the back side and/or on a front side of the frame opposite the back side. The device further includes a drive element made from thermally intumescent material disposed in the reaction chamber and, when activated, is formed for pushing away the door actuator from the mounting surface.

A window regulator assembly of a vehicle, wherein the window regulator assembly includes a carrier element. At least one pulley arrangement for redirecting a cable is mounted at the carrier element. The pulley arrangement includes a pulley which is arranged rotatable on a bearing element, which bearing element is mounted on the carrier element. The bearing element is formed by a section of a screw. The screw has adjacent to the bearing element a first thread with a first thread diameter designed to be engaged with a threaded bore in the carrier element. The screw has a second thread adjacent to the first thread with a second thread diameter that is smaller than the first thread diameter. The first thread is a self-tapping thread, which is directly screwed into the material of the carrier element.
