Vehicle interior component
A vehicle interior component comprising a cover rotatably coupled to a base at a pivot joint is disclosed. The component may comprise a mechanism comprising a projection engaging a first surface when the cover is closed and engaging a ramp as the cover is rotated between closed and open positions. The pivot joint may comprise an axle to provide an axis of rotation. The pivot joint may comprise the projection on the axle. One of the projection and the ramp may slide along the other as the cover opens and/or closes. The mechanism may comprise a cam surface and a follower. The base and/or cover may flex at the pivot joint. The cover may comprise a door, bin or sunglass bin. The component may comprise a console, center stack/console, floor console, overhead console, instrument panel, door panel, etc.

Hinge for a window, a window including a set of such hinges, and a method of installing such a window
In order to assist in mounting the hinge (210) on a window, the hinge comprises a mounting arrangement (250) including two mounting plates (251, 252) to be arranged on the frame of the window. The mounting arrangement includes at least one set of coupling means (253, 254) configured to engage with corresponding coupling means (263, 264) of the remaining components of the set of components of the hinge (210). The coupling means of the mounting arrangement (250) comprise at least one reception member (253, 254) provided on a respective mounting plate (251, 252) to engage with a respective engagement member (263, 264) of the coupling means of the remaining components by movement of the remaining components of the hinge substantially in parallel with said hinge plane to provide a releasable connection between the remaining components of the hinge (210) and the mounting plates (251, 252).
Vehicle interior component
A vehicle interior component comprising a cover rotatably coupled to a base is disclosed. The component may comprise a mechanism comprising a feature on the base and a feature on the cover. When the cover is closed, the feature on the cover may axially align with the feature on the base. The feature on the base may disengage the feature on the cover when the cover opens and may engage the feature on the cover when the cover closes. The mechanism may comprise a cam mechanism comprising a cam surface and a follower. The mechanism may comprise a pivot joint. The pivot joint may comprise a set of projections to provide an axis of cover rotation. The pivot joint may comprise a projection and a ramp. The component may comprise a console, center stack/console, floor console, overhead console, instrument panel, door panel, etc.

Linking mechanism for a computing device with a rotatable display member
Examples disclosed herein provide a computing device. One example computing device includes a base member, a support member rotatably connected to the base member at a first end of the support member, via a fixed shaft around a first axis of rotation, and a display member rotatably connected at a second end of the support member opposite the first end, around a second axis of rotation that is parallel to the first axis of rotation. The computing device includes a linking mechanism disposed within the support member.

Hinge for a roof window, and a roof window including a set of hinges
The hinge (10) is intended for a roof window having a frame and a sash, and has a frame hinge part (100) and a sash hinge part (200) configured to assume an angle relative to the frame hinge part (100). Each hinge part (100, 200) has a base plate (110, 210) with a guide track (112, 212) and a link (120, 220), the links (120, 220) being connected to each other at a bearing axle (123). Each link (120, 220) has a first hinged joint (121, 221) to the respective base plate (110, 210) and a sliding joint (122, 222) slidably received in the guide track (212, 112) in the base plate (210, 110) of the other hinge part (200, 100). A pick-up element (130, 230) is connected to the base plate (110, 210) in a second hinged joint (131, 231) and is biased by a spring (140, 240) to act on the sliding joint (222, 122) in the guide track (112, 212), for instance within a predefined angle interval.
