An opening structure includes a lower door having an upper end configured to be rotated and opened with respect to a lower surface of a vehicle body, a garnish unit located on a surface of the lower door, at least a portion of a lower end of the garnish unit configured to be tilted from the lower door, a driving unit extending in a longitudinal direction and configured to apply driving force to the lower door and the garnish unit, a first driver configured to tilt the garnish unit, a second driver configured to integrally pop up the tilted garnish unit and the lower door and to apply opening force thereto, and a hinge arm connecting the first driver and the second driver to each other.

A gatebox system for delivering fire retardant fluid from a firefighting aircraft. A first and second gate opening are formed through a lower portion of a gatebox. The gates are hingedly connected along edges of the openings. One or two drive shafts in the gatebox are rotatable in gates-closing and gates-opening directions. Crank arms are fixed to the drive shafts and coupled to the gates by connecting links, which define an over-center geometry while the gates are at a closed position, such that weight of the fluid on the first gate induces torque on the drive shaft in the gates-closing direction. Rotation of the drive shafts in the gates-opening direction enables control of the fluid flow from the hopper according to an angular position of the drive shaft.

The present application relates to the technical field of vehicle-mounted luggage, and discloses a vehicle-mounted luggage case with doors opening on both sides, including: a case bottom, a center-shaft split-type case lid, a lid opening mechanism, a power supply assembly and an electric control assembly, wherein an operation panel is provided on either side of the case bottom, a sealed compartment is provided at either end of the case bottom, a luggage compartment is formed between two sealed compartments, a bulkhead is formed on a side of the luggage compartment proximal to the two sealed compartments. The present application is not only provided with a center-shaft split-type case lid for convenient access, but can also effectively widen the size of the case bottom, and can open and close the lid electrically, which is more convenient to operate, and has the function of self-storing electric energy.

A hinge assembly includes a tailgate bracket securable to a vehicular tailgate, a support bracket securable to a vehicular bed, a torque shaft, and a crank. The tailgate bracket includes a socket. The support bracket includes a support. The torque shaft is supported by the support for axial rotation. The torque shaft includes a tailgate-side head and a crank-side head. The tailgate-side head and the socket are configured to make a head-and-socket connection with one another. The crank-side head includes an external profile. The crank includes a shaft-side base and an actuator-side base, a load arm extending therebetween, and at least one of a dogleg along the shaft-side base, the load arm and the actuator-side base, and an embossed rib extending along the load arm. The shaft-side base includes an internal profile. The external profile and the internal profile are configured to make a shaft-and-hub connection with one another.

The present invention relates to a door operator system (1) for opening and closing an opening (2), comprising a drive unit (10), a door frame (3) and a door (8), wherein the drive unit (10) is mounted to the door (8) and adapted to move the door (8) between an open (O) and closed position (C), the door frame (3) comprise at least a first frame section (4) adapted to be mounted at a first side (5) of the opening (2), a second frame section (6) adapted to be mounted at a second side (7) of the opening (2), a first track unit (31) moveably connected to the first frame section (4), and a second track unit (32) moveably connected to the second frame section (6), the door (8) is at a first side moveably connected to the first track unit (31) and at a second side moveably connected to the second track unit (32), wherein the door frame (3) is adapted to move the door (8) between the closed position (C) and an intermediate position (I) and to guide the door (8) between the intermediate position (I) and the open position (O).

The live well lid system may comprise a lid, a hinge, a motor, a lift arm, a lid track, and a local foot control. The live well lid system may be a system for covering and uncovering a live well of a boat by pivoting the lid of the live well responsive to input from the local foot control. The live well lid system may be adapted for a user to pivot the lid by operating the local foot control located proximate to the live well without diverting the attention of the user or requiring use of the user's hands. In some embodiments, a remote foot control may be a secondary control located at a remote location on the boat.

A door hinge apparatus of a vehicle may include a main bracket provided on one side of a vehicle body corresponding to an end portion of a door of the vehicle and having slide slots formed on upper and lower plates, respectively, a slide hinge bracket engaged to the slide slots to be slidable along the slide slots of the main bracket by a link mechanism, and a door hinge bracket Provided on the end portion of the door and pivotally connected to an external end portion of the slide hinge bracket through a hinge shaft.

A door linkage system for guiding a door of a motor vehicle between an open position and a closed position relative to a vehicle body includes at least one linkage pivotally connected between the door and the vehicle body to move a rear portion of the door away from the vehicle body substantially in a cross vehicle direction to a partially open position while a front portion of the door concurrently moves substantially in a longitudinal vehicle direction of the vehicle, and then, move the front portion and the rear portion of the door concurrently in substantially the longitudinal vehicle direction of the vehicle to the open position.
