A hinge assembly for a door, the hinge assembly including a hinge pin arranged to be fixed to the door at one end and having a pin connector part at an opposite second end. A rotation damper connected to a damper connector part arranged to cooperate with the pin connector part for transferring torque around an axis of rotation between the damper connector part and the pin connector part throughout an opening angle of the door, such that a rotational movement of the damper connector part about the axis of rotation in at least a first rotational direction is dampened by the rotation damper. The pin connector part and the damper connection part allow an initial closing angle of rotation of the door before the damper acts on the rotation of the hinge pin, the initial closing angle being at least 2?.

The present disclosure provides a hinge assembly including a first hinge body, a second hinge body, a movable block, a pushing block, a cushion block, and a pivot. The pivot is fixedly mounted to the first hinge body and is provided with a planar recess on a shaft body surface thereof. The movable block and the second hinge body are detachably connected to each other. The movable block is pivotally connected with the first hinge body via the pivot. A top surface of the movable block abuts against the first hinge body. The pushing block includes a first inclined surface. The cushion block includes a second inclined surface. A top surface of the pushing block abuts against the movable block. The pushing block slidably abuts against the shaft body of the pivot. The hinge assembly according to the present disclosure realizes seamless lifting of the hinge.

A display case door assembly for a temperature-controlled storage device includes a vacuum panel, a hinge rail, and a lighting element. The vacuum panel includes a first vacuum pane, a second vacuum pane, and an evacuated gap between the first and second vacuum panes. The evacuated gap provides thermal insulation for the vacuum panel. The hinge rail is coupled to an edge of the vacuum panel and configured to rotate along with the vacuum panel between an open position and a closed position. The lighting element is coupled to at least one of the edge rail and the vacuum panel and configured to emit light toward an interior of the temperature-controlled storage device when the hinge rail and vacuum panel are in at least the closed position.

A gate is mounted on a hinge to pivot about a pivot axis between opened and closed positions. A latch is mounted for movement relative to the gate to retain the gate in a closed and locked position

The invention relates to a hinge band (1) for a partition element (2), particularly for a door or for a window. The invention furthermore relates to a partition installation having a hinge band (1) of this type. The hinge band (1) has a first band part (3) and a second band part (4), wherein the first band part (3) is connected to the second band part (4) for hinge action about a hinge axle pin (9) in such a manner that the first band part (3) is rotatable relative to the second band part (4) about a rotation axis (10). Furthermore, a lifting/lowering installation (11) is provided, wherein on account of the lifting/lowering installation (11) the first band part (3) in a movement of the first band part (3) relative to the second band part (4) about the rotation axis (10) is moved along the rotation axis (10). The lifting/lowering installation (11) has a first hinge axle unit (12) which is disposed on the first band part (3), and a second hinge axle unit (13) which is disposed on the second band part (4). The first hinge axle unit (12) has a first running face (20) that is configured so as to be concave. The second hinge axle unit (13) has a second running face (35) that is configured so as to be convex. The first running face (20) is disposed on the second running face (35), wherein the first running face (20) is configured so as to be movable relative to the second running face (35).

The hinge assembly comprises a housing for mounting on a cabinet and a post member for mounting on a door and for rotation relative to the housing. A first electrical contact is mounted within the housing for connection to a source of electrical power in the cabinet and a second electrical contact is disposed in the post in electrical contact with the first contact for connection to an electrical appliance in the door. In one embodiment, the electrical contacts rotate relative to each other as the post member pivots on the housing while in other embodiments; the electrical contacts remain stationary relative to each other as the post member pivots on the housing.
