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 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°.

A sliding closet door leaf is provided with a shuttle connector (40a) configured to connect the door leaf to a soft closing mechanism shuttle (60a) arranged in a door guide, and the soft closing mechanism shuttle (60a) comprises a door leaf connector (62a) configured engage with the shuttle connector (40a), wherein the shuttle connector (40a) is connectable to the door leaf connector (62a) at anyone of at least a first mutual vertical relationship between the door leaf and the soft closing mechanism shuttle (60a), and a second mutual vertical relationship between the door leaf and the soft closing mechanism shuttle (60a).

A method of making a composite pipe has the steps of (a) providing one or more sources of composite tape, the composite tape being formed of reinforcing fibres embedded in a thermoplastic matrix; (b) helically winding the composite tape(s) around a cylinder under the application of heat to form a pipe comprising fused, concentric layers of adjacently positioned, helically-wound composite tape; (c) scanning a region where edges of wound composite tape are expected to be, to generate scanning information; (d) controlling the gap between further adjacent windings by (1) using the scanning information to determine wound composite tape edge position(s), and (2) using the determined wound composite tape edge position(s) to adjust the winding process during winding; (e) repeating steps (c) and (d). The invention also relates to a corresponding apparatus for making a composite pipe.

A swing gate mechanism to swing open an overhead lift gate system includes an overhead swing gate. The overhead swing gate has a pivot side and a catch side. A first gate power arm is configured to move along a first overhead guide track on a first side of the overhead lift gate system. A second gate power arm is configured to move along a second overhead guide track on a second side of the overhead lift gate system. At least one hinge is connected between the pivot side of the overhead swing gate and the first gate power arm. The at least one hinge is configured to allow the overhead swing gate to swing open by rotating about the first gate power arm.

A bollard that supports a door with a top bearing, middle bearing and bottom bearing with the middle and bottom bearing offset from the bollard.
