A vehicle roof system for comprises a closure panel having a panel support and a stationary guide rail at each longitudinal side of a roof opening for slidably guiding an operating mechanism that operates the closure panel. The operating mechanism comprises a rear device for moving the closure panel rear edge towards a raised position. A front device includes a first lever for moving the closure panel front edge vertically. A driving slide is drivable by a drive member to move the closure panel both in vertical and horizontal directions through the front and rear devices. The first lever is pivotally connected to the panel support only and has a first slide shoe engaging a stationary guide curve of the guide rail, that includes a downwardly and forwardly inclining front portion. The first lever slides and tilts when the shoe travels through the front portion of the stationary guide curve.

A refrigerator includes a main body having a storage compartment, and a door rotatably coupled to the main body to open or close the storage compartment. The refrigerator includes a slider provided on the main body, and is configured to movable in a front-rear direction to open or close the door, the slider including a contact part. The refrigerator includes a magnetic force part installed to to the rear surface of the door so that the door is configured to be opened or closed by the slider while the magnetic force part is magnetically attached to the contact part. At least one of the contact part and a part of the magnetic force part is configured to be rotatable so that while the attachment of the magnetic force part and the contact part is maintained.

In the roof window, each hinge (110) of the set of hinges comprises a frame hinge part (130), a sash hinge part (140), and a movement supporting assembly comprising guiding means including a linkage mechanism with at least two links (150, 160) providing connection between the sash hinge part and the frame hinge part. Each link is connected to at least one of the frame hinge part and the sash hinge part at a joint and connected to each other. The hinge (110) furthermore comprises a braking device (180) acting on at least one element of the movement supporting assembly over at least a part of the opening and/or closing movement. The braking device (180) comprises one or more friction elements.

A magnetic coupling assembly incorporating a sleeve having longitudinal and oppositely longitudinal ends; a first hydraulic seal fixedly attached to the sleeve, and being positioned at the sleeve's longitudinal end; a second hydraulic seal fixedly attached to the sleeve, and being positioned at the sleeve's oppositely longitudinal end; a plurality of magnets fixedly attached to the sleeve and positioned between the first and second hydraulic seals; the sleeve including longitudinal and an oppositely longitudinal segments; and incorporating first and second wiper rings, fixedly attached to the sleeve, the first wiper ring being positioned longitudinally from the first hydraulic seal, and the second wiper ring being positioned oppositely longitudinally from the second hydraulic seal; the sleeve forming a lubricant reservoir which is outwardly closed by the sleeve, the lubricant reservoir being longitudinally closed by the first hydraulic seal and oppositely longitudinally closed by the second hydraulic seal.

A window regulator assembly for moving a side window of a vehicle in an upward direction and in a downward direction along a guide rail, includes a carrier plate having a rail channel for movably engaging the guide rail. A first cable end pocket laterally offset from the rail channel is configured for receiving a cable end extending from a bottom end of the guide rail, and a separate second cable end pocket, likewise laterally offset from the rail channel, is configured for receiving a cable end extending from a top end of the guide rail. At a top end of the first cable end pocket in an installed position, the first cable end pocket is longitudinally delimited by a radial step having a depth of at most of a width of the first cable end pocket.

Disclosed are front entry cabs, and power machines with front entry cabs, having a door that is moveable between opened and closed positions. In the opened position, the door is positioned within an operator compartment of the cab above the operator seat and below a top of the cab. A linkage system defines the travel path of the door between closed and opened positions. The linkage system is configured to minimize interference with operator visibility.

An article of furniture, comprising a furniture carcass, includes a two-part furniture flap having a first flap part, and a second flap part, and at least one support device for the two-part furniture flap. The at least one support device is connected to the furniture carcass and the two-part furniture flap in an articulated manner. The at least one support device has a transmission portion, which is on an inside of the first flap part and defines a setting angle of the second flap part to the first flap part according to a setting angle of the first flap part.

A window regulator has a guide rail extending in a drive direction of a window glass, and a slider supporting the window glass and supported on the guide rail so as to slide in the drive direction. In the window regulator, the guide rail has a grease application region extending in the drive direction, and the slider has multiple grease application portions provided along the drive direction to apply grease in a stepwise manner to the grease application region.

A method for producing a dust-resistant sliding member, the method including a step of preparing a resin composition containing 0.5 to 5.0 parts by mass of a specific lubricant that is liquid at 25 C., 0.1 to 30 parts by mass of an inorganic filler, 1.0 to 20 parts by mass of a specific modified olefin-based polymer, and 0.01 to 5.0 parts by mass of an alkylene glycol-based polymer having a primary or secondary amino group, per 100 parts by mass of a polyacetal copolymer containing oxyalkylene units in a ratio of 0.4 to 0.9 mol % relative to all of the structural units; and a step of molding the resin composition into a prescribed shape.

A mechanism for a covering such as an encasement window or door or awning is provided. The mechanism includes an arm, on which a slot is configured. The slot includes a straight section and an angled section. The arm also includes a hole that is offset from the centerline of the straight section and disposed between the angled section and an end of the arm. A pin shaft is disposed in the hole and held in place by a cover member and a movable member, enabling the arm to rotate about the pin shaft. A rivet pin is disposed in the slot and fixedly connected to a fixed member. When the movable member moves, the arm moves such that the hung sash is unlocked from the fixed frame of the covering, and the angled section engages the rivet pin, causing the arm to rotate to open the covering.
