Insulated doors with restorable breakaway sections are disclosed. An example door includes a first panel assembly including a leading panel and a trailing panel. The leading panel is to be in substantially coplanar alignment with the trailing panel when the first panel assembly is in a normal configuration. The leading panel is to be angularly displaced out of coplanar alignment with the trailing panel when the first panel assembly is in a dislodged configuration. The example door further includes a tension member to connect the leading panel to the trailing panel. The tension member is to resiliently urge the leading panel and the trailing panel toward each other in a horizontal direction. The tension member is to resiliently urge the first panel assembly toward the normal configuration when the first panel assembly is in the dislodged configuration.

A damping or return device for sliding door leaves or drawers, particularly for furniture, is provided. The device has a first trolley, which is associated with a door leaf and is slideable with respect to an item of furniture, by a diametrically differently-polarized magnet, which is associated with the first trolley or with the item of furniture, and by at least one steel plate, which is associated with the item of furniture or with the first trolley. The first trolley interacts selectively with at least one elastically compressible element which abuts, in opening and in closing, with an abutment element which is associated with and protrudes from the item of furniture.

The disclosure relates to a sliding door operator system (1) for opening and closing an opening (2), comprising: a track (3) configured to be mounted at an upper part (21) of the opening (2), one or more sliding door(s) 10 slidably connected to the track (3) and comprising a door leaf (4) configured to be moved along the track (3) between an open (o) and closed (c) position, and a drive unit (5) mounted on the door leaf (4), moveably connected to the track (3) and arranged to move the door leaf (4) between the closed position (c) and the open position (o). The disclosure further relates to a drive unit (5) for moving a sliding door leaf (4) between an open and a closed position (O, C) and a control system (11) for regulating one or more sliding door (10).

An apparatus for moving sliding doors and wardrobe doors fixed to the inner face of the top of a door (10) comprises at least one carriage (34) and at least one braking device (20) with a slider (22) pulled by at least one coil return spring (24). The door is hung from a beam made up of two extruded profiles (12), (14), the first of which is fastened to the wall with screws (15) and relative plugs; the second extruded profile (14) is fastened to the first profile (12) with snap-in couplings. These coupled profiles define a cavity (16) in which the braking device (20) is housed and stabilised with screws (18), fixed on a cantilevered bracket (26) of the second extruded profile (14); the latter defines a sliding track (28) for the wheels or bearings (30) of the carriage(s) (34), fixed to the door (10) at a recess (32).

To create a system for a furniture item that is electrically powered and functionally more flexible, with improved energy consumption, and independent from the mains voltage, an energy management method is proposed with the the steps of (i) generating electrical energy from the displacement of a component (C; 30) of a furniture item movable by a user, (ii) storing electrical energy thus generated in an electric accumulator (B), preferably placed onboard the furniture item.

Disclosed is a hidden shower door with a low-rail sliding assembly, including an upper rail assembly (10), a movable door assembly (20), a vertical frame assembly (30), and a bottom guide part (40), wherein the upper rail assembly (10) includes an upper rail (1010), a damping trigger (1020), and sliding assemblies (1030), and the sliding assemblies (1030) each are mounted in the upper rail (1010); the sliding assemblies (1030) each include pulleys (10311), pulley brackets (1060), adjusting screws (10312), a damper (1050), and a damper bracket (1040); the pulleys (10311) are mounted on the pulley brackets (1060). The two pulley brackets (1060) are connected and fixed to two ends of the damper bracket (1040) respectively, and the damper (1050) is mounted in a damper accommodating groove (1041) of the damper bracket (1040); the upper rail (1010) is provided with a first bottom plate (1011).

A bypass door assembly for a retail display fixture has two or more door panels each with a wheel assembly coupled to a top of the door panel and an adjustable drop rail that extends from a bottom of the door panel, a first coupling member having a first track and a second track for receiving the respective wheel assemblies of a first door panel and a second door panel, and a second coupling member having one or more guides for receiving the adjustable drop rail of one of the two or more door panels.

A guide carriage includes a chassis having a rotatably supported running wheel and a connecting member for connecting the guide carriage to the furniture part. The chassis and the connecting member are configured as constructional units separate from one another and are configured to be connected to one another by a fastening device. The fastening device includes a force storage member and at least one locking element configured to be pressurized by the force storage member. The chassis and the connecting member are configured to be releasably locked to one another by a force of the force storage member. A holding device separate from the fastening device is provided for fastening the connecting member to the chassis. The connecting member is configured to be hung into the chassis via the holding device, can be pivoted about a, preferably horizontally extending, axis in the hung-in condition, and can be locked to the chassis by the locking element.

A guide assembly for a sliding shower door is provided with a bracket sized to be fastened to a shower door opening. The bracket has a first lengthwise retainer. A guide with a second lengthwise retainer is sized to be retained by the first lengthwise retainer of the bracket. The guide has at least one channel formed therein and is sized to receive a shower door pane within the channel for translation of the shower door pane relative to the guide.

An exemplary closure assembly includes a rail assembly and a door assembly movably mounted to the rail assembly. The door assembly includes a rotary damper having a pinion, and the rail assembly includes a rack member operable to engage the pinion. As the door moves from first position to a second position, the rack member engages the pinion, thereby causing the pinion to rotate in a first rotational direction. The rotary damper resists rotation of the pinion in the first direction, thereby slowing movement of the door toward the second position. The rotary damper may be a one-way damper that does not resist rotation of the pinion in a second rotational direction such that the rotary damper does not resist movement of the door from the second position toward the first position.
