A cabinet 10 having at least one door 32 which may be selectively and removably placed within the generally hollow storage compartment 14 of the cabinet 10 and which may be also moved outside of the compartment 14 and allowed to selectively articulate along movement arc 120 and to be selectively placed in a closed position in which the at least one door 32 overlays the storage cavity or compartment 14.

A cooking appliance includes a housing having a stowage compartment, a door for closing a cooking chamber, and a door opening mechanism constructed to automatically move the door at least in a section of an entire movement path between a closed position and an open position of the door, in which open position the door is retractable into the stowage compartment of the housing. The door opening mechanism includes an actuation unit which is configured to automatically tilt the door from the closed position into an intermediate position located such that any further movement of the door from the intermediate position into the open position is implemented automatically under the force of gravity of the door.

A vehicle door assembly includes a vehicle body structure, a first door, a second door and a support assembly. The vehicle body structure has a wall portion that defines a door opening. The support assembly is fixed to the wall portion proximate the door opening and has at least one pair of tracks with door support devices and a motorized door mechanism. The door support devices independently support the first door and the second door for movement along the at least one pair of tracks and the motorized door mechanism is configured to raise and lower the door support devices along with the first door and the second door from respective closed orientations covering corresponding sections of the door opening and open orientations exposing the corresponding sections of the door opening.

A glove box includes a cover mounted in a dashboard of a vehicle in a state in which a front surface of the cover is open and including a guide hole having an arch shape and directed from an upper side to a lower side on a side wall of the cover, a housing accommodated in a state in which an open surface thereof is covered by the cover and configured for selectively opening or closing the open front surface of the cover through a preset rotational trajectory, a plurality of transfer links that are arranged between first and second outer ends of the housing and first and second inner ends of the cover and provide a rotational trajectory of the housing, and an elastic member that corrects rotational forces of the transfer links.

A rear door assembly includes a rear opening and a roof structure having a recessed area. A carrier is movable along a portion of the recessed area between a rearward location to a forward location. A motor is attached to the carrier and the vehicle. The motor is operable to move the carrier relative to the roof structure and the rear opening between the rearward location and the forward location. A rear door has a hinge pivotally supported to the carrier for movement therewith. The rear door is movable between a door closed orientation covering the rear opening, an intermediate orientation partially exposing the rear opening and a door open orientation exposing the rear opening. A linear movement device has a first end attached to the carrier for movement therewith and a second end attached to the rear door at a location spaced apart from the hinge.

A kennel door apparatus includes a pair of first bracket supports and a pair of second bracket support mounted to a kennel frame, an first and second guide rail mounted between the first and second support brackets, and an first door hinge and a second door hinge each separately coupled with the guide rails and bracket supports, and the hinges mounted to a door support that is mounted to a kennel door. The apparatus works cooperatively to slidably move the kennel door to a position adjacent the lateral wall of the kennel housing or frame.

Enclosures for an electrical apparatus include a housing comprising a back and first and second spaced apart sidewalls extending outwardly from the back and providing an interior space and a door pivotably attached to the housing, the door having a primary body with a bottom having a bottom flange and first and second laterally spaced apart side flanges. The bottom flange and the side flanges have a folded inwardly extending edge joining first and second parallel wall segments that are orthogonal to the primary body of the door. The enclosure can also include at least one slot extending through the first and second parallel wall segments of the bottom flange and/or a retention bracket attached to an inner surface of the door that engages the housing.

A cabinet 10 having at least one door 32 which may be selectively and removably placed within the generally hollow storage compartment 14 of the cabinet 10 and which may be also moved outside of the compartment 14 and allowed to selectively articulate along movement arc 120 and to be selectively placed in a closed positon in which the at least one door 32 overlays the storage cavity or compartment 14.

An automotive vehicle is provided having a body with an opening without a pillar. First and second doors cover the opening, and a translatable hinge, such as a gooseneck hinge, connects the first door to the vehicle. The hinge is adapted for moving the first door away from the second door, and then allowing the first door to pivot to an open position about a single pivot axis. A striker is adapted for allowing a latch for latching the first door to move along the striker in a latched condition during translation of the hinge, and may include an elongated, angled striker bar for permitting the first door to move both along and outboard of the vehicle body during the opening sequence.

An overtravel hinge for a sliding door of a vehicle. The overtravel hinge expands from a collapsed condition, to a partially deployed condition, and to a fully deployed condition. The hinge includes a four bar linkage utilizing an arm to control movement of the overtravel hinge between the collapsed condition and the fully deployed condition. The overtravel hinge, in one embodiment, is used to modify or retrofit a known original equipment manufacturer vehicle.
