The at least one spring biased locking mechanism having a pawl arm and a pin. The at least one locking mechanism positioned within a channel of the hinge bracket with the pawl arm positioned within and projecting from the at least one cutout. The pawl arm configured to move within the at least one cutout to push the pin beyond a second end of the knuckle and through a through hole defined in the pin tab of the mounting bracket.

A hinged wall profile door assembly including a first and second longitudinal wall profile having a body configured for mounting to a wall, and a longitudinal hinge profile having a body configured to be received within an inner section of the first longitudinal wall profile. The assembly also includes a profile door, at least a first hinge assembly and a second hinge assembly secured to the longitudinal hinge profile and configured for mounting to the profile door, the first and second hinge assemblies having a body and a first end and a second end, wherein the first end of the body is configured to be curved and the second end of the body is configured to form a longitudinal channel for receiving the profile door therethrough.

A pin of a hinge system movable between a first position and a second position is provided, wherein in the first position, the pin is received within a first component and a second component. The pin includes a cylindrical body coupled to an actuator for movement along an axis between the first position and the second position. A tip is removably attached to an end of the cylindrical body. The tip is configured to contact at least one of the first component and the second component when the pin is in the first position.

A sleeve for use in an assembly for coupling a wristworn device to a first end of a strap. The sleeve has a first end dimensioned to be received in the recess in the inner face of the first lug of a wristworn device, an inner cavity dimensioned to receive therein the first end of a conventional spring bar, and a retractor coupled to the sleeve for urging the first end of the spring bar towards the second end of the spring bar. The second end of the spring bar is coupled to the second lug, the spring bar is coupled to the strap, the first end of the spring bar is positioned in the inner cavity of the sleeve and the first end of the sleeve is coupled to the first lug. A removable retractor for use with a spring bar, which allows for the use of a plurality of spring bars and therefore, lends itself to widespread use and retrofitting of an assembly that couples a strap to a wristworn device, is also provided.

A storage box includes a door that is coupled to the base. A pivot pin is coupled to the door and is operable between an engaged position, wherein the pivot pin is rotatably engaged with the base, and a disengaged position. The pivot pin is configured to move door-inboard due to contact with the base as the pivot pin moves from the disengaged position to the engaged position.

A laundry appliance includes a cabinet having a top panel that defines an aperture for selectively accessing a treatment chamber defined within the cabinet. A lid is rotationally operable relative to the aperture of the top panel between open and closed positions. Hinge assemblies extend between the lid and the top panel. The hinge assemblies include a first hinge assembly. A second hinge assembly is selectively retractable into the lid to a retracted position. A biasing member biases the second hinge assembly out to an extended position. At least the second hinge assembly is operable to the retracted position to bypass a portion of the top panel to define an installed position where the first and second hinge assemblies are engaged with respective hinge receptacles of the top panel.

A hinged wall profile door assembly for a shower enclosure is disclosed. The assembly includes: a first and a second longitudinal wall profile having a body configured for mounting to a wall; a longitudinal hinge profile having a body configured to be received within an inner section of the first longitudinal wall profile; a profile door of variable size and shape; at least a first hinge assembly and a second hinge assembly secured to the longitudinal hinge profile adjacent to a top edge and a bottom edge thereof, the first and second hinge assemblies configured for mounting to the profile door adjacent to a top edge and a bottom edge thereof, the first and second hinge assemblies having a body and a first end and a second end, wherein the first end of the body is configured to be curved and the second end of the body is configured to form a longitudinal channel for receiving the profile door therethrough; and a first handle configured to be secured to a front side of the profile door and a second handle configured to be secured to a rear side of the profile door such that the first and second handles are positioned directly opposite from each other.

A hinge, in particular for a piece of furniture, comprises an inner hinge portion that can be attached to the furniture carcass or to a door hinged to the carcass, an outer hinge portion that can be attached to an outer door, a connecting device that connects the inner hinge portion to the outer hinge portion so that they can pivot relative to each other by three receiving members. The inner hinge portion has a main body that can be attached to the furniture carcass or to a door hinged to the furniture carcass. A lower receiving member is movable, preferably slidable, relative to an upper receiving member which is mounted, preferably rigidly, on the main body.
