A hinge assembly for a swinging door includes a shifting pivot point movable between a first concealed positioned and a second extended position to provide clearance for protruding trim pieces and the like upon opening the swinging door. A double action spring mechanism energizes to drive the shifting pivot point between the first and second positions. An assembly including a link arm and a bell crank is driven by the double action spring mechanism to shift the shifting pivot point and locking mechanisms are provided to lock each of the link arm and the bell crank in their respective extended positions. A compartment assembly includes a swinging door, a fixed structure to which the swinging door is movably coupled, at least one hinge assembly according to the present disclosure.

A breathing assistance apparatus has a lid and latch assembly configured for one-handed operation. The apparatus also includes a hinge assembly that separates when over-rotated but that reengages upon closing of the lid onto the main body of the apparatus.

A breakaway hinge for a portable medical device, such as a cart-borne ultrasound system, enables the movement of an access door in other dimensions than the hinge access. The hinge includes a sliding magnet which attaches to a fixed magnet, and a hinge pin, all acting together to allow the door to open, to shift the door away from the hinge, and to detach the door as desired.

The present disclosure relates to a telecommunications enclosures that can be customizable to include a hinge. That is, a separate hinge may be utilized as an add-on feature for telecommunications enclosures. The hinge can be attached to at least two different sides of an enclosure or may not be utilized at all. Such a configuration allows for flexibility of a variety of designs for a telecommunications enclosure. The hinge can be mountable to interfaces of first and second housing pieces of an enclosure. The hinge can have rotational features and/or translational features for pivoting first and second housing pieces of an enclosure between first and second positions.

A door hinge apparatus of a vehicle may include a rail plate provided on one side of a vehicle body corresponding to an end portion of a door of the vehicle and formed with a rail in a width direction of the vehicle, a hinge slide unit including a slide bracket provided on the rail and a door hinge bracket provided on the door where the slide bracket includes a guide slot formed in a diagonal direction of the slide bracket and the slide bracket and the door hinge bracket are pivotally coupled each other through a hinge shaft, and an actuator having a roller configured at a rod to roll along the guide slot so that the slide bracket moves along the rail.

The present disclosure is directed to an apparatus that flexibly couples a ramp to a boat dock and to methods for constructing this apparatus. These methods may also include steps directed to selecting material strengths or sizes when designing an assembly that attaches the ramp to the boat dock. By allowing relative up-down motion between a boat dock and a ramp using materials with particular characteristics, apparatus built in a manner consistent with the present disclosure are much stronger than conventional apparatus that connect a ramp to a boat dock. Apparatus consistent with the present disclosure prevent property damage, personal injury, and death that are commonly associated with conventional boat ramps and docks. Apparatus of the present disclosure increase the safety of boat docks and increase the robustness of connection points where a ramp meets a boat dock.

A door hinge apparatus of a vehicle may include a main bracket provided on one side of a vehicle body corresponding to an end portion of a door of the vehicle and having slide slots formed on upper and lower plates, respectively, a slide hinge bracket engaged to the slide slots to be slidable along the slide slots of the main bracket by a link mechanism, and a door hinge bracket Provided on the end portion of the door and pivotally connected to an external end portion of the slide hinge bracket through a hinge shaft.

Provided is a rotating shaft mechanism of an electronic device. A first fixing assembly and a second fixing assembly in the rotating shaft mechanism are connected to each other by a first connector and a second connector. A hollow region can be reserved in the rotating shaft mechanism as the first connector and the second connector may be shorter. Thus, an external circuit of the electronic device can pass through the hollow region and be disposed in a second body of the electronic device. An electronic device are also provided.

A hinge device for a vehicle, wherein the hinge device includes a first member, which has two spaced brackets, a second member, which is arranged between the brackets. The hinge device further includes a hinge arrangement defining a hinge axis and adapted to connect the second member to the brackets so that the members may turn in relation to each other about the hinge axis. The hinge device is adapted for allowing movement of the hinge axis via movement of the hinge arrangement.

An embedded refrigerator which includes a cabinet, a door, and a hinge assembly, the hinge assembly includes a first hinge part, a second hinge part and a switching assembly; when the door is in an opening process, the first hinge part moves relative to the switching assembly, and then, the second hinge part moves relative to the switching assembly; the hinge assembly drives the door to rotate in situ relative to the cabinet, and then drives the door to continuously rotate in situ relative to the cabinet. The refrigerator can increase an opening-closing freedom degree of the door, and various motion tracks may be generated to adapt to various application scenarios.
