An adjustable stopper device (1) for a vehicle door or hood, includes a base part (100), and adjustment part (200), a stopper part (300) and a fastening structure (400). The adjustment part is connected to the base part via threads (120, 220) and thereby rotatable around a device axis (210) with respect to the base part (100). The stopper part is configured to contact the vehicle door and to provide an abutment surface (310) for the vehicle door when the vehicle door is closed, wherein the stopper part is connected to the adjustment part and wherein the axial position of the abutment surface is adjustable by turning the adjustment part with respect to the base part around the device axis. The fastening structure fastens the base part to the car body (2). A vehicle with, use of and method for manufacturing such a device are also described.

A supporting member includes: a rotatable spindle supported in a first housing; a cylindrical first guide fixed in a second housing, and guiding a relative movement of the spindle in an axial direction; a second guide fixed in the first housing, having an inner diameter larger than a first guide's outer diameter, and relatively movable in the direction to the first guide; and a nut being a stepped shaft-like member including an insertion portion inserted into the first guide, a protruding portion protruded from the first guide, and a narrow portion provided therebetween. The first guide includes a caulking portion to the nut at an opening end. The caulking portion includes a portion extending to intersect in the direction along a step between the insertion portion and the narrow portion, and another portion parallel to the direction along an outer circumferential surface of the narrow portion.

A furniture fitting for movably mounting a furniture part on a furniture carcass includes a mounting body to be fastened to the furniture part or to the furniture carcass by a fastening screw. The mounting body is formed, at least in certain regions, from a first material, preferably a metallic material such as steel. The mounting body has a receiving element in which the fastening screw is or can be mounted, and the receiving element is formed at least partially from a second material, preferably plastic, which second material is different from the first material.

A safe includes at least one wall having a gap with a safe protection mechanism inserted into the gap. The at least one wall when penetrated by an attack tool attempting to penetrate an interior of the safe activates the safe protection mechanism to thwart and/or impeded progress of the attack tool.

A door hinge includes a door flange. The door flange includes a first-cylindrical portion. The first-cylindrical portion segmented and having an axially vectored borehole therethrough. The door hinge includes a frame flange. The frame flange including a second-cylindrical portion. The second-cylindrical portion segmented and having a corresponding axially vectored borehole therethrough. The first-cylindrical portion and second-cylindrical portion are configured to engage when their respective boreholes are coaxial. A plurality of apertures are disposed on the door flange and the frame flange. A plurality of plugs are included with the door hinge. Each of the plurality of plugs are sized and dimensioned to close at least one of the plurality of apertures. The door hinge is useful for attaching a door to a door frame.

A hinge for the rotatable movement of a closing element, such as a door, a window, a shutter or the like, between a closing position and an opening position, the closing element being anchorable to a stationary support structure, such as a wall, a floor, a frame or similar, includes a hinge body anchorable to the stationary support structure or the closing element, and a pivot defining an axis and anchorable to the closing element or the stationary support structure. The pivot and the hinge body are coupled so as to cause the closing element to rotate between the opening and the closing position. The hinge body includes a working chamber defined along the axis to house the pivot.

An adjustable hood-stop unit for a front-end bolster of a motor vehicle is disclosed. The adjustable hood-stop includes a bumper stop, a retainer made of a plastic material that receives the bumper stop, and a plurality of threads integrated along an internal surface of the retainer. The retainer is over-molded onto a hole in the front-end bolster, the plurality of threads extend on a partial length of the internal surface of the retainer at a predetermined rotation degree, and the plurality of threads are discontinued.

A hinge device includes a first hinge body 10, a second hinge body 20 and a link mechanism 6. The link mechanism includes a moving link 30 having a rear end rotatably connected to the first hinge body and a front end rotatably connected to the second hinge body, a front connecting link 50 having a proximal end portion rotatably connected to a front end portion of the first hinge body and an intermediate portion rotatably connected to an intermediate portion of the moving link, and a supporting link having one end rotatably connected to a distal end of the front connecting link and the other end rotatably connected to the second hinge body. The front connecting link has a pair of resin spacers 57 interposed between the pair of side walls 11 of the first hinge body 10 and the pair of side walls 31 of the moving link.
