A hinge for rotatably coupling an appliance door with an appliance body includes an input arm affixable with the body and a housing affixable within the door and coupled with the input arm so as to be rotatable through a range of motion between a closed position and an open position. The hinge further includes a spring engaged between the housing and the input arm and deformable to apply a balancing torque to the housing relative to the input arm and a first magnet coupled with one of the housing and the input arm and magnetically applying a closing torque between the housing relative and the input arm when the housing is within a predetermined range of the closed position.

A door and suspension mechanism assembly for use at or near an end of an elongated housing, where the suspension mechanism allows a linear movement of the door relative to the elongated housing and for a pivoting movement of the door relative to the elongated housing. Hence, the door and the suspension mechanism assembly provide access to a cavity in the elongated housing.

A door closer is provided. The door closer includes a first connecting plate and a second connecting plate. The first connecting plate is connectable to an external door frame, the second connecting plate is connectable to a door body connecting portion. Connecting rod assemblies and return springs are mounted in the door body connecting portion. One end of the connecting rod assembly passes through the second connecting plate and is hinged to the first connecting plate. When a door is opened, an external door body drives the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate to overturn, and after the connecting rod assembly pulls the door body connecting portion, the return spring is compressed. When the door is closed, the return spring pulls the door body to close automatically.

A hinge device includes a shaft that is rotatable around the axis, and a torque imparting portion configured to impart a rotational torque to rotation of the shaft. The torque imparting portion includes: a ring having a shaft insertion hole through which the shaft is inserted with rattling, the ring covering a part of an outer circumferential face of the shaft in the axis direction; an elastic member that biases the ring in the axis direction from a position displaced from the axis of the shaft; and an adjuster configured to adjust a force that the elastic member biases the ring.

The invention relates to a piece of furniture, comprising a furniture body, a two-part furniture flap having a first flap part, preferably arranged at the top in the assembled position, and a second flap part, preferably arranged at the bottom in the assembled position, and at least one supporting device for the furniture flap, wherein the supporting device is connected to the furniture body and the furniture flap in an articulated manner, wherein the supporting device has a transmission part, which is arranged on the inside of the first flap part and defines the setting angle of the second flap part to the first flap part according to the setting angle of the first flap part.

The invention relates to a hinge (10) comprising a swivellable hinge part (12), a stationary hinge part (14) and a tensionable spring element (34), wherein the stationary hinge part (14) is designed with a first bearing (16) as well as a second bearing (18), wherein the bearings (16, 18) have swivel axes (S1, S2) that are offset to one another. According to the invention, the swivellable hinge part (12) is mounted on the stationary hinge part (14) via the first bearing (16) such that it can swivel about a swivel axis (S1), and the tensionable spring element (34) is arranged on the stationary hinge part (14) via the second bearing (18).

A hinge for the rotatable movement of a closing element, such as a door, a window, a shutter or the like, includes a fixed element anchorable to a stationary support structure and a mobile element anchorable to the closing element. The fixed and movable elements are mutually coupled so as to rotate with respect to each other between an open position and a closed position. One of the fixed or movable element includes a working chamber, with a plunger disposed to slide along a longitudinal axis and operatively coupled with the other one of the fixed or movable elements so that the sliding of the plunger corresponds to a rotation of the movable element.

A cable manager includes a backbone assembly and at least one side wall extending from the backbone assembly. The at least one side wall optionally includes one or more cable finger units. The backbone assembly includes a spine member having an extruded construction. The spine member includes one or more channels extending substantially an entire length thereof to facilitate easy attachment, removal and/or repositioning of a structure relative to the spine member. The cable manager optionally includes an accessory rod, a half-spool assembly, a cable finger accessory, a strap/buckle accessory, and/or a door assembly having an interference-free hinge set.

A drive device for a movable furniture part, comprising an ejection force accumulator which can be tensioned, an ejection element mechanically loaded by the ejection force accumulator and used to carry out an ejection movement of the moveable furniture part from a closed position into an open position. The ejection movement can be initiated by a compression movement of the movable furniture part into a compression position which is behind the closed position. The drive device also comprises a tensioning device for tensioning the ejection force accumulator with energy which can be emitted by the ejection movement. During the compression movement, at least 50% of the energy emitted by the ejection force accumulator during the ejection movement can be introduced into the ejection force accumulator by the tensioning device.

A hinge including: a first leaf assembly accommodating a portion of a first panel having a first cut-out section, the first leaf assembly including a first insert component which is tight fittingly receivable within the first cut-out section; a second leaf assembly, hingedly coupled to the first leaf assembly, for accommodating a portion of a second panel having a second cut-out section; a spring operatively coupled to the first and second leaf assemblies to bias the hinge to move from an open position to a closed position; and a dampener to dampen movement of the hinge from the open position to the closed position, wherein said longitudinal dampener axis is disposed between and substantially parallel with planes defined by respective opposing faces of the first panel.
