The interconnection means (13) further includes a rod (31) connecting the lever (23) to a first end of a rocker arm (35), the rocker arm (35) having a first end linked via the rod (31) to the first mobile pin (27) and having an opposite end rotatably connected to a second member (5) by a fixing pin (37) spaced from a pivot pin (7). A median portion of the rocker arm (35) has a second mobile pin (41) for sliding in a second slot (43) of the first member (3), the second slot (43) being rectilinear, curved, or S or C shaped.

A furniture hinge device capable of implementing wide range loading, comprising a housing and a fixing plate. A linkage assembly is provided between the housing and the fixing plate. A lever assembly and a power assembly are provided on the housing. The power assembly comprises a primary spring and a secondary spring. Positioning ends of the primary spring and the secondary spring are respectively mounted, from bottom to top, at a lower swinging end of the lever assembly. An adjustment assembly is provided on connection ends of the primary spring and the secondary spring. A fixing part of the adjustment assembly is fixedly mounted on a side plate of the housing. Adjustment parts of the adjustment assembly are respectively rotatably connected to the fixing part of the adjustment assembly and are connected to adjustment ends of the primary spring and the secondary spring.

The invention relates to a hinge for a household appliance, including a hinge housing, including a pivot arm, which is pivotably retained at the hinge housing, and including a drive device, which comprises an electric motor, by means of which the pivot arm is pivotable relative to the hinge housing, wherein the drive device includes: a drive housing formed separately from the hinge housing, provided in addition thereto and at least partially following the hinge housing in longitudinal extension direction of the hinge housing; a threaded spindle at least partially received in the hinge housing; and at least one screw element screwed to the threaded spindle.

Proposed is a door hinge. More particularly, there is provided a door hinge which is conveniently assembled, has a minimized shape, and above all, enables a closing force to be applied to a door so that when the door is opened, high-temperature heat is inhibited from being released from inside an apparatus on which the door hinge is installed.

The invention relates to a furniture hinge with a fastening portion and a hinge part connected thereto via a multi-axis articulated connection, wherein a spring preloads the hinge part directly or indirectly, at least in a subregion of the adjustment path of the hinge part, with respect to the fastening portion, and wherein the spring is mounted or can be mounted under tension between two spring bearings. In order, in such a furniture hinge, to achieve improved movement control and to make the required manual force for hinge opening or closing more even, provision is made according to the invention for the spring (76) to be adjusted in the region of its two spring bearings (74, 84.4) during the adjustment of the hinge part (20) from the opening into the closing position and/or during the adjustment from the closing into the opening position.

The damped and compact hinge device includes a spring (17) fixed to a first member (3) and a second end coupled to interconnection means (13) having a first mobile pin (27) of a lever (23) sliding along a first slot (29) of the first member (3). The interconnection means (13) further includes a rod (31) connecting the lever (23) to a first end of a rocker arm (35), the rocker arm (35) having a first end linked via the rod (31) to the first mobile pin (27) and having an opposite end rotatably connected to a second member (5) by a fixing pin (37) spaced from a pivot pin (7). A median portion of the rocker arm (35) has a second mobile pin (41) for sliding in a second slot (43) of the first member (3), the second slot (43) being rectilinear, curved, or S or C shaped.

A control method includes controlling a lever, a pusher and a motor so as to arrange the same in a correct position when electric power is supplied to the home appliance, or the user turns on the home appliance. Abnormalities involving an automatic opening of the door through changes in a return/stop switch and an opening sensing switch while the motor operates so as to open the door may be confirmed.

The invention relates to a device for pivotably holding a wing flap. The device comprises a flat four-bar linkage comprising two pivotably mounted pivoting arms and two pull arms fastened in parallel in an articulated manner to the pivoting arms, a fastening element for applying the wing flap being applied to the pull arms. The invention further comprises elastic means for damping the pivoting movement, which engage with the four-bar linkage, and a damper device for damping the pivoting movement in the region of two end positions, with a linear pressure damper and a first and a second transmission element. The pressure damper cooperates, on a first side of the pressure damper, via the first transmission element, with a first of the two pivoting arms in the region of a first of the two end positions. Furthermore, the pressure damper cooperates, on a second side of the pressure damper, via the second transmission element, with a second of the two pivoting arms in the region of a second of the two end positions. The invention further relates to a damper device for using in a device.

A furniture drive includes a carrier and an actuating arm assembly arranged on the carrier and including a movably-supported actuating arm. The furniture drive also includes a spring device for applying a force to the actuating arm assembly, the spring device being connected to the actuating arm assembly via an engagement location, a transmission mechanism for transmitting a force of the spring device to the actuating arm assembly, and an adjustment device including a rotatably-supported adjustment element. A relative position of the engagement location can be adjusted by a rotation of the adjustment element. The furniture drive further includes an overload safety device configured to couple the adjustment element with the transmission mechanism upon rotation of the adjustment element with torque below a predetermined torque, and to decouple the adjustment element from the transmission mechanism upon rotation of the adjustment element with torque above the predetermined torque.
