A housing for mounting a motorized actuator on or in a fixed portion of a window that allows the actuator to be adjusted in the housing to facilitate alignment of a linkage on the actuator with a linkage on the moveable portion of a window.

The present invention particularly relates to a closing device (1) of an opening provided in a structure, comprising a fixed part (11), wherein an opening is defined, and at least one sliding movable panel (12) guided along two guide rails (114, 115) fitted on one face of said fixed panel (11), between a closing position, sealing the opening, in a sealing plane defined by the fixed panel (11), and at least one opening position, in a sliding plane, substantially parallel with the sealing plane, each of the rails (114, 115) bearing at least one shuttle (2) guided in translation in the rail (114, 115), movable in translation in the guide rails (114, 115), and switching the movable panel (12) from the sealing position to said at least one sliding position, and vice versa, and slidably moving the movable panel (12) in the sealing plane.

According to the invention, at least one of said rails (114, 115) bears, at one of the ends thereof, an end fitting forming a mechanical stop defining a stop position for said shuttle.

A power supply apparatus for a door glass for a vehicle that includes the door glass installed on a door of the vehicle and configured to be movable in an upward and downward direction is provided, wherein an operation module is installed on the door glass to use power, and a power source part is installed on the door. The power supply apparatus includes a rail installed on the door and provided with a rail terminal to electrically conduct with the power source part, and a slider provided with a contactor slidably contacting the rail terminal and electrically conduct with the operation module, while moving in the upward and downward direction integrally with the door glass, wherein the contactor and the rail terminal maintain an electrically conductible state at all times regardless of a change in a position of the door glass.

A hinge supports a door panel having a door edge in a door frame having a frame edge in a closed position of the door. A door part fixed to the door edge defines first and second parallel door axes in the gap between the door edge and frame edge, and a frame part fixed to the frame edge defines first and second parallel frame axes recessed in the door frame. A first link has one end pivoted on the door panel at the first door axis and an opposite end pivoted on the frame part at the first frame axis, and a second link separate from the first link has one end pivoted on the door part at the second door axis and an opposite end pivoted on the frame part at the second frame axis.

A door actuator arrangement, comprising a door actuator having an output shaft, with the output shaft having a first face-side end and an opposing second face-side end, a linkage, whose linkage head is fitted on the first end of the output shaft and is connected to the output shaft in a rotationally fixed manner and a connection element. The connection element is connected or can be connected at the first end to the linkage head, protrudes into the output shaft and is accessible at the second end to make a connection between linkage head and output shaft.

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 barn door hardware conversion system that allows for an existing hinge mounted door to be converted to a barn door style sliding door. The hardware system primarily mounts to the existing frame components of the door opening, eliminating the need to secure components to the existing wall surface above the door opening.

A vehicle mechanism is provided. The vehicle mechanism may include a stationary member including a main portion provided with an offset surface region including a bearing-surface region having non-planar regions. The mechanism may also include a moveable member that may be configured to move with respect to the stationary member. The moveable member may include a mating-bearing-surface region that may be configured to engage the bearing-surface region of the stationary member. A coating may be provided on the main portion and the bearing-surface region. The coating on the main portion may have a first thickness and the coating on the bearing-surface region may have a second thickness. The second thickness may be least 20% greater than the first thickness.

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.

A furniture drive for moving a furniture part movably supported relative to a furniture carcass the furniture drive includes a housing having a first housing wall to be fixed to the furniture carcass, and a second housing wall at least partially spaced from the first housing wall. At least the first housing wall includes a guide device for guiding a fastener. At least one supporting body is configured so as to be separate from the guide device for guiding the fastener, at least partially surrounds the guide device, and is firmly connected to the first housing wall as well as to the second housing wall so that a movement of the second housing wall relative to the first housing wall is restrained.
