MULTI-LINK DOOR HINGE
A multi-link door hinge capable of facilitating the closing of a door and implementing the shock-absorbing performance of the door during the closing thereof. To this end, the multi-link door hinge includes: a main frame mounted to a main body of an object having a door; a door frame mounted to the door; a body frame rotatably connected to a first side of the main frame; an inner link and an outer link connecting the door frame to the body frame; a plate spring link allowing the outer link to be rotatably connected to the main frame; a locking piece rotatably mounted between side walls of the inner link; an elastic member; and a hook, a first side of which is fixed in the body frame and a second side of which is configured to be held in a second side of the locking piece.
BLADE HINGE ASSEMBLY WITH CLOSURE MECHANISM
A household appliance hinge includes a mounting portion and a mounting tab including a cam profile. A door mounting lever is pivotally connected to the mounting tab of the mounting portion. A spring-biased control system is connected to the door mounting lever and includes a spring-biased cam follower system including a cam follower that: (i) engages the cam profile in an engagement position and for all positions of the door mounting lever between the engagement position and a first operative position; and, (ii) separates from the cam profile for all positions of said door mounting lever located between the engagement position and a second operative position. The hinge is self-latching.
LIGATURE RESISTANT DOOR AND DOOR FRAME ASSEMBLY
Provided is a ligature resistant door and door frame assembly. Such assembly enables movement of the door relative to the frame via an actuator concealed and supported by the door frame so as to eliminate conventional hinge and closer arm constructions. In doing so, the assembly eliminates such conventional structure providing potential structure capable of supporting suspension of ligature, and reduces costs associated with purchase and installation.
HINGE, ACCOMMODATION DEVICE, AND REFRIGERATOR
The present invention relates to reliably performing an opening portion operation and a closing operation without using a cam and a member sliding on the cam, by including a body-side member fixed to a box body; a door-side member fixed to a door, a link mechanism connecting the body-side member to the door-side member, and a catch mechanism interposed between the link mechanisms, between the body-side member and the link mechanism, or between the door-side member and the link mechanism, and configured to bias the door-side member in a closing direction or an opening portion direction, wherein the catch mechanism includes a coil spring provided on one side of two members that are connected so as to be rotatable relative to each other through a shaft member, and a transfer arm configured to transfer an elastic restoring force of the coil spring to an other side of the two members, and the transfer arm is connected to be rotatable at a point spaced apart from the shaft member on the other side of the two members.
Shower Door System with Gravity Hinge
A shower door and hinge assembly comprising a glass shower door, a sloping sill, a sill angle adapter, upper and lower horizontal door frame rails, and upper and lower shower door hinges where the lower hinge is a gravity style hinge featuring a self-closing action, is presented. The hinges of the present invention shower door and hinge assembly attach only to horizontal edge surfaces of the glass door. The hinges do not attach to any vertical surface of the door.
DEVICE FOR MOVING A FURNITURE FLAP AND PIECE OF FURNITURE
A device is proposed for moving a furniture flap received on a furniture body of a piece of furniture having a spring-force unit, which assists the opening and/or the closing of the furniture flap by a predetermined force action of the spring-force unit via an adjusting arm engaging with the furniture flap in the mounted state. According to the invention, an electrically switchable adjusting unit is provided, which is coupled to the spring-force unit in such a way that a movement of the spring-force unit into a predetermined adjustment position of the spring-force unit on the piece of furniture occurs by a switching of the adjusting unit in the mounted state of the device so that a degree of force action of the spring-force unit on the furniture flap can be adjusted in dependence on the adjustment position of the spring-force unit.
Shower door system with gravity hinge
A shower door and hinge assembly comprising a glass shower door, a sloping sill, a sill angle adapter, upper and lower horizontal door frame rails, and upper and lower shower door hinges where the lower hinge is a gravity style hinge featuring a self-closing action, is presented. The hinges of the present invention shower door and hinge assembly attach only to horizontal edge surfaces of the glass door. The hinges do not attach to any vertical surface of the door.
HINGE WITH OPENING DEVICE FOR PIECES OF FURNITURE
A hinge for assembling a door on a piece of furniture comprises a first hinge element fastenable to a fixed part of the piece of furniture, a second hinge element fixable to a door of the piece of furniture and swingably connected to the first hinge element, and at least one spring element for generating a force in the opening direction for the door at least near the closing position of the door; the at least one spring opening element is housed in an opening device disposed in or on one of the first and second hinge elements, wherein the opening device is conformed and arranged for exerting said opening force directly or indirectly on the other of said first and second hinge elements.
GRILL HINGE
A hinge assembly for use on a grill that permits the selective removal of the lid from the bowl, the hinge assembly including a stationary bowl bracket affixed to the bowl, a pivotable middle bracket pivotably mounted to the bowl bracket and a removable lid bracket affixed to the lid and removably secured to the middle bracket.
