The locking device includes a ferrule (60) positioned on the rod, the ferrule comprising an internal stop (80) and the first tubular body comprising a counter-stop (34), capable of cooperating to lock the first tubular body and the ferrule. The ferrule is locked in translation relative to the second body (14) and rotatable around said second body, between an unlocked position, allowing the sliding of the second body into the first body (12), and a locked position retaining the second body in the retracted configuration.

An arrangement for spreading apart at least two door leaves which are part of an item of furniture and are hingedly interconnected, from a folded position into a spread-apart position, includes an energy accumulator and a spreading element impinged by the energy accumulator. The spreading element comprises a pivotally supported lever arm with a free end, and a control contour is provided for controlling movement of the spreading element.

Double door system (1) comprising an understriking door leaf (2), an overstriking door leaf (3), a first door operator (11) adapted to move the understriking door leaf (2) between an open and a closed position, a second door operator (12) adapted to move the overstriking door leaf (3) between an open and a closed position and a mechanical brake arrangement (400), wherein the understriking door leaf (2) should be closed before the overstriking door leaf (3) to close the double door, and wherein the mechanical brake arrangement (400) is arranged to brake the movement of the overstriking door leaf (3). Mechanical brake arrangement (400) for controlling the movement of one of the door leafs of a double door system. Door operator system (10) comprising a first door operator (11), a second door operator (12) and a mechanical brake arrangement (400).

A door closer comprises a housing mountable to one of a door or a door frame, an arm having a first end pivotally attached to the housing and a second end connected to the other of the door or door frame, the arm being movable between a neutral door position and first and second open door positions up to 180 degrees from the neutral position in opposite directions, and opposing first and second racks movable relative to each other and relative to the housing. Each of the first and second racks has a first end adapted to engage a piston within the housing. The door closer further comprises a pinion within the housing pivotally connected to the arm first end and engaging teeth of the first and second racks, a piston having a first end adapted to engage the first end of the first and second racks, and a spring compressible by an opposite end of the piston. Movement of the arm from the neutral position to one of the first or second door open positions rotates the pinion and urges the first end of the first or second rack into engagement with the piston first end, the piston compressing the spring until the door reaches one of the first or second door open positions, and movement of the arm from the neutral position to the other of the first or second door open position rotates the pinion in an opposite direction and urges the first end of the other of the first or second rack into engagement with the piston first end, the piston compressing the spring until the door reaches the other of the first or second door open position.

Piston assembly includes a piston housing defining an interior and having a first housing end and a second housing end, a piston rod having a first rod end extending into the interior and moveable therein between an extended position toward the first housing end and a retracted position toward the second housing end, a first plate joined to the piston rod proximate the first rod end, a second plate joined to the piston rod and spaced apart a distance along the piston rod from the first plate, and a piston head slidably joined to the piston rod between the first plate and the second plate. A lift assembly including a piston assembly and configured to provide a damping force to a pivotable body during pivoting of the pivotable body relative a stationary body between a closed position and an open position is provided.

A door assembly with improved sealing between the door and door frame. The door assembly may include a door frame having a first side section and a sill section, a door including a first edge surface and a second edge surface and a hinge having a first portion connected to the first side section and a second portion connected to the first edge surface to pivotably connect the door to the door frame such that the door is pivotable between an open position and a closed position, wherein the hinge moves the second edge surface vertically downward toward the sill section only during the last 50 degrees of pivotal movement of the door from the open position to the closed position.

A door closer comprises a housing mountable to one of a door or a door frame, an arm having a first end pivotally attached to the housing and a second end connected to the other of the door or door frame, the arm being movable between a neutral door position and first and second open door positions up to 180 degrees from the neutral position in opposite directions, and opposing first and second racks movable relative to each other and relative to the housing. Each of the first and second racks has a first end adapted to engage a piston within the housing. The door closer further comprises a pinion within the housing pivotally connected to the arm first end and engaging teeth of the first and second racks, a piston having a first end adapted to engage the first end of the first and second racks, and a spring compressible by an opposite end of the piston. Movement of the arm from the neutral position to one of the first or second door open positions rotates the pinion and urges the first end of the first or second rack into engagement with the piston first end, the piston compressing the spring until the door reaches one of the first or second door open positions, and movement of the arm from the neutral position to the other of the first or second door open position rotates the pinion in an opposite direction and urges the first end of the other of the first or second rack into engagement with the piston first end, the piston compressing the spring until the door reaches the other of the first or second door open position.

A door pop-up system includes a check link, which is rotatably coupled to a body of a vehicle, and a pressure member, which is rotatably arranged inside a door. The check link has a tip portion to enter the inside of the door. The pressure member presses a tip of the check link in a movement direction of the check link in which the check link moves as the door in a closed position is actuated to be opened. The door in a closed position is actuated to be opened by rotation of the pressure member and pressing of the tip of the check link with the pressure member. The pressure member has a pressure surface at which the tip of the check link is pressed. The pressure surface has a restriction surface to restrict displacement of the check link in a height direction.
