The underlying invention is directed to an appliance (1), in particular a cooking appliance, such as a baking oven (1). The appliance (1) comprises a cavity (2) comprising a back wall (3) and an opposite front opening (4), the cavity (2) defining in depth dimension (D) a maximum depth dimension (D.sub.max) for the accommodation of carriers (5), such as trays (5) or grids, a rack (7) comprising at least one carrier support (8, 17, 34), the rack (7) movably associated with the cavity interior (9) and having a depth extension (E) that is smaller than the maximum depth dimension (D.sub.max), a door (10) for opening and closing the front opening (4) and hinged to open to the outside, and a coupling member (11) providing a kinematic coupling between the rack (7) and the door (10) configured such that a pivoting movement of the door (10) is translated into a movement of the rack (7) in depth dimension (D).

A home appliance has a door capable of being opened and closed in opposite directions. The home appliance includes a main body having an inner space and a door rotatably installed on the right or left side of the main body to open and close the inner space. A first door opening/closing system is provided on the right sides of the main body and the door to be involved in a right opening of the door. A second door opening/closing system is provided on the left sides of the main body and the door to be involved in a left opening of the door. A locking member is disposed to be slidable in a left-right direction between the first door opening/closing system and the second door opening/closing system.

An appliance includes a hinge module between a main body and a pull-down door. The hinge module includes a housing, a rotational axis member disposed in the housing serving as a center of rotation between the pull-down door and the main body, an inner link housing movably disposed in the housing that moves with the opening of the pull-down door in a direction of the rotational axis member, and a damper installed in the inner link housing, the damper including a piston and a cylinder and providing damping force according to a relative movement of the piston and the cylinder. Any one of the piston and the cylinder of the damper moves with the inner link housing and the other of the piston and the cylinder of the damper moves by a predetermined distance as the inner link housing moves and then is interfered by the housing so as not to move further, and the piston and the cylinder of the damper starts damping, wherein the predetermined distance corresponds to an opening angle of the pull-down door in which the damping is started.

The present invention relates to a domestic appliance, particularly a cooking oven, comprising a chassis and a door hinged to the chassis at a rotating axis of the door, wherein the door comprises at least one door panel, at least one door frame attached at an inner side of the door panel, at least one electric or electronic unit attached inside or at the door, at least one electrically conducting cable for interconnecting the electric or electronic unit to a control unit arranged at or in the chassis of the domestic appliance, at least one cable channel attached or attachable to the door frame for guiding a first section of the cable, and at least one cable tube arranged within the region of a rotating axis of the door for guiding a second section of the cable from the door frame to the chassis, wherein the cable tube comprises a main section, and a first end section for connecting the cable tube to the hinge-sided end of the door and a second end section for connecting the cable tube to the chassis, wherein the main section is connecting the first end section the second end section, and wherein at least one of the first end section and/or the second end section configured to be freely pivotable relative to a rotational axis (y) running essentially in parallel to the main section.

A latch assembly for an appliance includes a cabinet having a front panel with a latch opening. A latch member is aligned with the latch opening of the front panel and is movable between an engaged position and a disengaged position. A door is hingedly coupled to the cabinet between open and closed positions and has a latch receiving aperture. A cover plate is configured to selectively cover the latch opening. The cover plate is rotatably coupled with the cabinet between first and second positions.

A hinge support includes a support plate that defines a first aperture and a second aperture. A pivot has an anchor arm that is disposed within the first aperture defined by the support plate. The pivot has a raised surface, a recessed surface, and a graduated surface that is defined between the raised surface and the recessed surface. A cap is disposed over and operably coupled to the pivot. The cap has a projecting surface, a receiving surface, and a sloped surface that is defined between the projecting surface and the receiving surface. An engagement plate defines an opening and is disposed around the cap. The cap and the engagement plate are configured to translate between a first position and a second position relative to the support plate.

Proposed is a hinge device having tension maintaining function, the hinge device including: a winding member affixed to a main body of a mounted structure having an inner space formed therein; a hinge member affixed to a door that opens or closes the inner space and mounted on the winding member so as to enable the door to be pivotable; and a tension member having one end affixed to the winding member and the other end affixed to the hinge member, such that the tension member transmits a tension to the door when opening and closing the door.

The present invention related to a door hinge for opening a door, which includes a cam fitted to the housing and hinged to the door, a roller that is in contact with an outer curved portion of the cam and is pushed backward according to the eccentric rotation of the cam, a damper case coupled with the roller and a pin and moving linearly backward according to the pushing pressure of the roller, a chamber formed at the end of the damper case, a guide tube extending to the end of the damper case in which the chamber is formed recessedly, a damper cover fixed the housing with a fastening pin and accommodating space is formed therein to accommodate the guide tube, a damper installed in the accommodating space of the damper cover, and a rod configured to exert a compressive force of the damper.
