A movable barrier operator includes a first side panel having a first opening and a second side panel, opposing the first side panel, where the second side panel has a second opening. The operator further includes a motor having a first side and an opposing second side including a first shaft extending in a first direction and a second shaft of the motor extending in a second opposite direction. The operator further includes a first bearing, the first bearing inserted into the first opening of the first side panel, wherein the first shaft of the motor is inserted through the first bearing and a second bearing, the second bearing inserted into the second opening of the second side panel, wherein the second shaft of the motor is inserted through the second bearing to thereby prevent transfer of vibration from the motor to the second side panel.

A sash (62) of a window opening up to 180° and capable of tilting is mounted onto a fixedly installed frame profile (63) and houses a pair of superimposing sashes that fit tightly therein when in closure position, i.e. an upper stationary sash (65) and a lower movable-divertible sash (64), each of the sashes (64,65) provided with laterally extending shafts (49) for connection with sash (62), roller wheels (50) provided onto the shafts (49) of sash (64) that roll within a predefined path created by insert guide profile members (19) and diverter guide members (66,68) to alternately bring sash (64) in a position of superimposing sash (65) and a position of alignment with the same. Lifting mechanisms (46) provided with a regulatory screw (84) for adjusting the pretension of a spring component thereof and thereby the force required by the user for moving the sash (64) are installed within the vertically extending sides of the sash (62).

A modular merchandise display system is provided. The system comprises an enclosure, a first upper bracket and a first lower bracket forming a first pocket on a first side of the enclosure, and a second upper bracket and a second lower bracket forming a second pocket on a second side of the enclosure. A first security door is slidably and pivotally connected to the first upper and lower brackets. A second security door slidably and pivotally connected to the second upper and lower brackets. The security doors can be positioned exterior of the enclosure and then pivoted about the upper and lower brackets to be positioned substantially parallel to the front of the enclosure in a closed position. The security doors can then be secured to one another in the closed position.

An exemplary method involves operating a storm shutter system installed to a building adjacent an opening. The storm shutter system includes a panel, a motor operable to drive the panel between a first position and a second position, and a control assembly operable to control the motor. The method includes receiving, by the control assembly, information from an external device. The method further includes operating the motor to linearly drive the panel from the first position to the second position in response to receiving the information.

A hold lock mechanism for a vehicle door, the hold lock mechanism including a grip assembly configured to be mounted on a vehicle body, the grip assembly including a pair of grip members configured to releasably grip a door component and a hook provided on at least one of grip members, and a release assembly mounted on the door component, the release assembly including a release member configured to releasably engage with the hook.

A hinge for a vehicle hood is provided. The hinge includes a hinge lower fixed to a vehicle body, and a hinge upper fixed to the hood and rotatably supported relative to the hinge lower. The hinge upper includes a first member rotatably supported relative to the hinge lower, and a second member fixed to the hood and relatively movable relative to the first member. The hinge further includes a first lock configured to be engageable with the first member to restrict rotation of the first member relative to the hinge lower. The first member and the second member are integrally rotatable relative to the hinge lower in a normal operation of opening and closing the hood. When the hood is caused to pop up, the first lock engages with the first member and the second member is relatively movable relative to the first member.

The invention relates to a shutter for furniture, cabinets, shelf units and the like, having at least two shutter parts which are arranged next to one another, which shutter parts can be pivoted on the furniture carcass about an axis of rotation, can be transferred by means of an inner guide from a common plane into two mutually parallel planes and can then be slid over one another, wherein the first shutter part, which is furthest away from the axis of rotation, interacts with the second shutter part, which is closer to the axis of rotation, by way of at least two guide means arranged on inner sides thereof, and wherein an outward thrusting mechanism interacts with the first shutter part, wherein the outward thrusting mechanism can be moved from an inoperative position into an operative position.
