A hinge assembly for rotatably mounting an appliance door to a cabinet of an appliance includes a lower cam member coupled to a hinge support bracket and an upper cam member coupled to the appliance door. A pin assembly passes through the upper and lower cam members and is coupled to the hinge support bracket such that it defines an axis of rotation. The upper and lower cam members are configured to engage each other to urge the appliance door toward the closed position. The engagement may be a result of the weight of the door and the hinge assembly may further include a vertically oriented spring for assisting in the downward force of upper cam member.

The invention relates to a hinge (10) for a dispensing device (12), wherein the hinge (10) is substantially bar-shaped and/or tubular for fastening to a door (14) of the dispensing device (12), the hinge (10) having at least a main body (20) and an insertion rail (22) for the door arranged on the main body (20), wherein the door (14) is inserted in the assembled state in the insertion rail (22) and is held in the insertion rail (22), wherein at least one damping device (24) and at least one panic hinge device (26) are provided in the main body (20).

The invention relates to a sliding door arrangement for a freezer cabinet, comprising a door frame (1), at least one sliding door (2), wherein the sliding door (2) is movable along the frame plane between an open position and a closed position, and a guiding device (3), wherein the guiding device (2) comprises roller arrangements (4) each with a first roller axis (5) and at least one guiding element (6) guiding the movement of the sliding door (2), characterized in that the guiding device (3) is designed in such a manner that the sliding door (2) moves transversely to the frame plane during a movement from the open position to the closed position, for which purpose the guiding element (6) has a parallel portion (7) and an end portion (8), and the roller arrangements (4) each have at least one further roller axis (9).

A chute safety system for selectively enclosing a bovine in a calf shoot by selectively closing a rear gate assembly behind the bovine. The chute safety system comprises an entryway at a rear portion, a first side enclosure, a second side enclosure and a front gate assembly at a front portion, a trigger foot plate assembly and the rear gate assembly. The chute safety system can comprise a bovine enclosure defined by a space between the rear gate assembly, the first side enclosure, the second side enclosure, and the front gate assembly. The rear gate assembly comprises a rear gate crossbar having a crossbar distal end and a crossbar proximate end, a crossbar hinge and a crossbar rotational axis.

A furniture item is described comprising compartment, -an L-shaped guide arranged on the ceiling of the furniture item, and a first and second leaf to uncover or close the compartment. Thanks to a column element hinged at one end of the second leaf and coupled with two parallel guides mounted on the side of the furniture item, the leaves can be moved.

A method is described for building a furniture item (MC) that—in use—comprises a leaf (30, 32), a linear downwards-inclined guide (230), and a body (200) slidably mounted on the guide (230) and connected to the leaf (30, 32) to drag it to an end-of-travel position, wherein said body (200) moves on the guide (230) to drag the leaf only thanks to the force of gravity.

Embodiments of the present invention are related to an improved gate hinge with a post assembly including an L-Bracket, a post assembly extension, and a swing axis bolt with a T-Joint. A gate assembly includes an L-Bracket and gate assembly extension. The post assembly and gate assembly are connected via connecting bolt. The swing axis bolt is oriented vertically on the post assembly extension and the connecting bolt is oriented horizontally on the gate assembly extension. The connecting bolt connects the gate assembly to the post assembly at the T-Joint. The gate assembly extension rotates via the T-Joint on the swing axis bolt. The post assembly extension distally extends a bottom portion of a gate attached to the gate assembly relative to a top portion of the gate. The distal extension creates an elevated angle between the gate bottom and ground when the improved gate hinge is actuated.

The invention relates to a hinge (10) for a dispensing device (12), wherein the hinge (10) is substantially bar-shaped and/or tubular for fastening to a door (14) of the dispensing device (12), the hinge (10) having at least a main body (20) and an insertion rail (22) for the door arranged on the main body (20), wherein the door (14) is inserted in the assembled state in the insertion rail (22) and is held in the insertion rail (22), wherein at least one damping device (24) and at least one panic hinge device (26) are provided in the main body (20).
