Devices and methods for mounting door frames

The present invention relates to a door frame, particularly a door frame for a pre-hung door assembly, which is foldable to minimize storage space and to allow for enhanced logistic efficiencies. The door frame contains parallel, spaced apart, vertical jambs and a horizontal header connecting the top ends of the jambs. Each of the jambs and the horizontal header contains a front section and back section that are hingedly joined so that then can be folded on to each other. The hingedly joined front and back sections allow the door fame to be foldable to minimize space occupied during storage.

Hinged door with latch

A hinged door with a latch described. The latch may be used to secure the door of a cabinet in a closed position. The door hingedly connects to the cabinet by a hinge. The latch includes a handle. The handle includes a pawl tip. The latch includes a base, and the handle rotates relative to the base. The handle is biased to a closed position by a spring or biasing member. The handle and the base are mounted to the door of the cabinet. A striker is mounted to a wall the cabinet. The striker includes a catch that is spaced from an interior side of a wall of the cabinet. The pawl tip of the handle lockingly engages with the catch of the striker to secure the door.

Flexure Hinge
20170350443 · 2017-12-07 ·

A flexure hinge with two material segments connected to each other via a material tapering to a thin spot which defines a pivot axis between the two material segments. The material segments are provided with recesses such that the strength existing in the thin spot with respect to normal stresses or bending stresses is kept largely constant within a distance from the thin spot.
