A hood assembly for a motor vehicle includes a hood, a hinge with a first arm, and a pin fixed to the first arm in a projecting manner along a mounting axis and a second arm of the hood hinged to the first arm around a hinge axis, a structural member fixed to the pin and provided with a hole axially receiving the pin along the mounting axis, wherein the hinge axis and the mounting axis lie respectively on a first plane and on a second plane parallel to one another, and wherein a projection of the hinge axis onto the second plane is orthogonal to the mounting axis .

The present disclosure provides an aircraft door system including an aircraft door configured to translate from a closed position to an open position. The aircraft door system further includes a plurality of door pressure stops positioned along a length of the aircraft door and a handle coupled to the aircraft door. A rotation of the handle causes a first translation of the aircraft door in an inward direction and a forward direction. The aircraft door system further includes a hinge system coupled to the aircraft door. An outward force applied to the aircraft door causes a second translation of the aircraft door in an outward direction and a forward direction. The hinge system causes the aircraft door to translate such that the aircraft door remains parallel to the aircraft fuselage throughout an entirety of the second translation until the aircraft door reaches the open position.

An embodiment system for illuminating a charging port of an electric vehicle is provided. The charging port is provided in a vehicle body for supplying electrical power to a vehicle driving battery, and the system includes a charging port door configured to open and close the charging port, and a lamp device disposed on the charging port door and configured to illuminate the charging port.

A hinge assembly for an engine hood of a motor vehicle, having a hinge substructure, which can be attached to a body component of the motor vehicle, and having a hinge upper part, which can be attached to the engine hood. The hinge upper part is retained on the hinge substructure so as to pivot about a pivoting axis. The hinge assembly includes at least one support element, which enables deformation of the hinge substructure in a first direction, in which the hinge substructure can be moved away from a limit stop area of the at least one support element. The at least one support element limits deformation of the hinge substructure in a second direction opposite the first direction by means of the limit stop area. Furthermore, the invention relates to a motor vehicle having at least one such hinge assembly.

An embodiment door mounting unit for a vehicle includes a body hinge shaft and first mounting portions disposed at both ends of the body hinge shaft, wherein the body hinge shaft is configured to be elongated in a door opening of a vehicle body along a pillar in a height direction of the vehicle body and is configured to be mounted on the vehicle body by the first mounting portions.

Trunk lid stopper mechanism and method for controlling rotational speed of a trunk lid to slow down and halt its movement, and to hold the trunk lid at the halted position. The stopper mechanism comprises hinge arms for supporting the lid, torsion bars for applying biasing force to the lid, and link arms for transmitting biasing force from torsion bars to the hinge arms. Either each hinge arm or link arm is equipped with a stopper member that brakes the rotation movement of the trunk lid and halts the trunk lid fully-open. The stopper member has tapered surfaces for reducing relative rotational speed between the hinge and link arms by being forced therebetween during their relative rotational movement, and a stopper surface(s) for abutting against the other arm and halting the arms' relative rotational movement at the fully open position of the trunk lid.

An apparatus for automatically opening and closing a trunk lid includes an actuator having a first end configured to be coupled to a vehicle body and a second end configured to be coupled to a hinge arm coupled to the trunk lid, a closing trigger link having a first end rotatably coupled to the actuator, an opening trigger link rotatably coupled to the closing trigger link, a spring assembling pin having a first end coupled to the closing trigger link and the opening trigger link, and a spring having a first end coupled to a second end of the spring assembling pin, and a second end configured to be coupled to the vehicle body or a panel configured to be mounted on the vehicle body.

A flip cover actuation structure for actuating a flip cover includes a locking device, a rocker, and a driving device. The locking device locks and releases the flip cover. The rocker drives the flip cover to open and close. The driving device comprises a gear and an eccentric device. The driving device is configured to rotate the gear and the eccentric device. The gear drives the rocker. The eccentric device drives the locking device.

Disclosed is a hinge assembly for rotatably mounting a trunk lid to a vehicle body. The hinge assembly for a trunk lid of a vehicle, includes a hinge arm configured to be coupled to the trunk lid, a hinge bracket configured to be coupled to a vehicle body and having a hinge shaft, the hinge arm being rotatably coupled to the hinge bracket, a torsion bar configured to be coupled to the hinge arm and to provide an elastic force to the hinge arm in an opening direction, and a cushion assembly provided at one end of the hinge arm adjacent to the hinge shaft and configured to adjust a rotation speed of the hinge arm in response to the elastic force of the torsion bar.

A vehicle door hinge structure includes a body bracket, a hinge arm, a door bracket and a check structure. A first end of the hinge arm is attached to the body bracket for pivoting movement about a first pivot axis. The door bracket is attached to the second end of the hinge arm for pivoting movement about a second pivot axis. A clip member of the check structure has a main body, a clip portion and a retention portion. The main body of the clip member extends through a clip aperture of the hinge arm. The bracket pin is fixedly attached to the door bracket at a location spaced apart from the second pivot axis such that with the clip portion of the clip member engaged with the bracket pin, the door bracket is retained in a fixed position.
