A hinge assembly for a door of a household appliance has a first hinge and a second hinge. The first hinge includes a base portion and a door receiving portion. The base portion includes at least one elongated slot to receive a fastener. The elongated slot enables positioning of the door receiving portion. The second hinge includes a mounting block and a door plate. The door plate has a door receiving portion that has at least one elongated slot to enable positioning of the door receiving portion. The door plate is secured via at least one fastener to the mounting block. The mounting block is movable in a direction substantially perpendicular to the door plate for positioning the door.

A connector by way of which two frame elements of a frame of a furniture part can be connected, wherein the connector includes a corner-connecting mechanism for connecting respective end portions of the two frame elements in a corner region of the furniture-part frame. An attachment portion for attachment to a pivoting device is integrated on the corner-connecting mechanism, wherein the furniture part can be accommodated on a basic structure of a piece of furniture such that it can be pivoted by means of the pivoting device.

The invention relates to a two-part hinge device for a door or a window, comprising a first housing part (20) and a second housing part (30), which in the assembled state form a door hinge housing (19), and a rod (15) which extends in the first housing part (20) and second housing part (30) along the axial direction (60) thereof, wherein the rod (15) has at least three successive—a first, a second and a third—rod sections (16, 17, 18). The first rod section (16) is supported in the first housing part (20) by a clamping element (50), and the third rod section (18) supports the second housing part (30). In the region of the second rod section (17), the rod (15) is adjustable relative to the first housing part (20) in two directions at an angle to each other and independently of each other, and the two directions at an angle to each other are arranged transversely to the axial direction (60) of the rod (15).

An apparatus is disclosed for opening and closing a grain or access door on a barge lid or cover, the grain door having a latch connecting the grain door to the barge lid, the apparatus supportable by an overhead lifting system. The apparatus can include a base which is supportable by the overhead lifting system and a mechanical arm assembly connected to the base, the mechanical arm assembly including a first arm rotatably connected to the base, a second arm connected to the first arm, a latch engagement member connected to the second arm; and an actuator connected between the first arm and the second arm, the actuator operable to move the second arm relative to the first arm to disengage the latch on the grain door from the barge lid via the latch engagement member and swing the grain door from a closed position to an open position.

This disclosure relates to a motor vehicle with an arrangement configured to oppose movement of a vehicle door, and a corresponding method. An example motor vehicle includes a body, a door configured to slide relative to the body between an open position and a closed position, and a bracket connected to the door. The bracket includes a slot. Further, a locking arm is mounted to the body, and, when the door is in the closed position, the locking arm is configured to move such that the locking arm is received in the slot.

Disclosed is a hinge assembly comprising a first hinge leaf assembly and a second hinge leaf assembly, each having their respective hinge leaf. The first hinge leaf assembly is connectable to the second hinge leaf assembly and when so connected the first hinge leaf assembly is rotatable relative to the second hinge leaf assembly about an axis. The hinge assembly further comprises at least one mounting member fixable to a moveable barrier or a structure through a fixing arrangement. The first and/or second hinge leaf is connectable to the at least one mounting member so as to be adjustable relative thereto in a least one direction. A locking arrangement is also included to releasably lock the first and/or second hinge leaf to the at least one mounting member. The locking arrangement is operative to adopt a hold condition where relative movement between the first and/or second hinge leaf and the at least one mounting ember is prevented, and a released condition where the first and/or second hinge leaf is able to be adjusted relative to the at least one mounting member. The locking arrangement includes a locking element disposed between the first and/or second hinge leaf and the at least one mounting member, and movable relative to both the first and/or second hinge leaf and the at least one mounting member to cause the locking arrangement to adopt the hold condition or the released condition.
