An actuation system and method of operation for moving a closure panel in one of a normal drive state and a back drive state are provided. The actuation system includes a mechanical coupling for moving the closure panel. A motor with a shaft is directly and operably connected to the mechanical coupling to directly move the mechanical coupling. A sensor detects movement of the closure panel and couples to a controller connected to the motor. The controller moves the closure panel with the motor based on a detected motor movement command in the normal drive mode. The controller also detects movement of the closure panel using the at least one sensor and selectively brakes the movement of the closure panel based on the movement detected in the back drive state.

A door drive device for adjusting and/or locking a vehicle door relative to a vehicle body including an adjustment member, a drive element operatively coupled to the adjustment member such that the adjustment member is movable with respect to the drive element for moving the vehicle door, a sensor device for measuring a measuring quantity indicative of a movement of the vehicle door to provide a sensor signal, a brake device operatively connected to the drive element for braking a movement of the vehicle door, and a control device for controlling operation of the door drive device. The control device is configured to compute, from the sensor signal obtained from the sensor device, an acceleration value indicative of an acceleration of the vehicle door and evaluate the acceleration value to distinguish movement of the vehicle door caused by a gravity force from movement caused by a user action.

A hinge device is adapted to be installed between two machine bodies that are mounted with a flexible display. The hinge device includes a base member, two rotating modules mounted respectively to opposite sides of the base member and adapted for the machine bodies to be mounted respectively thereto, and a central support plate disposed above the base member and connected between the rotating modules. The central support plate is drivable by the rotating modules to move relative to the base member from a supporting position, where the flexible display is flat and is supported thereby from below, to a receding position, where a display receiving space is provided for receiving a bent portion of the flexible display.

A door presenting device for a motor vehicle door element having an electric drive unit and an actuating means, wherein the actuating means can be adjusted by means of the drive unit and a gear mechanism arranged between the actuating means and the drive unit, with the result that a movement of the door element can be enabled, and further having a locking means. The door element can be maintained in position by means of the locking means and the locking means can be electrically actuated, namely indirectly, preferably manually, actuated.

There is provided an automatic locking device for mounting to a wall-bed having a frame portion anchored to a wall and resting on a floor and having a pivotable mattress support portion adapted to be pivoted to upright storage position and to a deployed horizontal position as a sleeping surface. The automatic locking mechanism being mounted to the bed frame portion anchored to a wall and being automatically actuated by any sudden forward tipping movement of the frame portion should it become dislodged from the wall while the mattress support portion is in its deployed horizontal position. Also provided is a wall bed and kit comprising the automatic locking device of the present invention.

A garment processing device door comprises an exposed first compartment, and a second compartment separated by a barrier; a first switch reciprocating inside the second compartment and connecting the door to a first rotation axis; a second switch reciprocating inside the second compartment and connecting the door to a second rotation axis when the door from the first rotation axis; a first body having one end rotatably fixed to the first compartment and another end penetrating the barrier and in the second compartment; a second body fixed to the first body and inside the second compartment, the second body moving the first switch to separate the door from the first rotation axis based on a force to the first body, and the second body moving toward the barrier when the first switch connects the door to the first rotation axis; and a damper between the second body and the barrier.

A screw-driven control system includes a driving mechanism fixed in a cross beam, a guide locking piece and a limiting mechanism. The driving mechanism includes a screw rod and a motor driven nut assembly having a transmission frame, a nut sleeved in the screw rod, and a follow-up member fixed in the nut; the nut is mounted in the transmission frame, and the transmission frame is connected with a controlled object; the screw rod drives the nut assembly to reciprocate axially along the screw rod.

An arrangement (16) for controlling movements of an access member (12) relative to a frame (14), the arrangement (16) comprising abase section (18) for connection to either the access member (12) or the frame (14); a fixation part (20) for connection to the other of the access member (12) and the frame (14); a flexible elongated element (22) configured to be tensioned to thereby force the base section (18) and the fixation part (20) to move towards each other in a relative closing movement (86); and a braking device (82) arranged to brake a speed of the relative closing movement (86).

The invention relates to a fitting arrangement having a furniture connecting fitting, in particular a hatch holder, which can be used to attach a furniture hatch or a door can be to a cabinet body in a swiveling manner, wherein an interlock (200) and a bracket (300) are provided, which can be used to connect the furniture hatch in a form-fitting and/or form-locked manner to the furniture body in a closed position of a kinematic arrangement (30) of the furniture connecting fitting, wherein the kinematic arrangement (30) has levers and links, which can be used to move the furniture hatch or door from the closed position into an open position, wherein a spring element (38.2) is provided which, in the closed position of the kinematic arrangement (30), introduces a prestress into the kinematic arrangement (30) in the opening direction, and wherein the interlock (200) and the bracket (300) form a release mechanism, which can be used to release the connection between the interlock (200) and the bracket (300) in the closed position of the kinematic arrangement. Such a fitting arrangement can be used to effect a convenient opening of a door or hatch from the closed position.
