Provided is a motorized drive system for actuating a door, including at least one gear having a spindle axis and a drive axis, wherein the gear assembly is designed to convert a rotational movement about the drive axis into a rotational movement about the spindle axis; at least one spindle assembly having a threaded spindle which can be rotated about a spindle axis, wherein the threaded spindle is mechanically coupled to a part of the gear assembly that can be rotated about the spindle axis, and at least one drive assembly for driving the threaded spindle with a drive shaft, wherein the drive shaft is mechanically coupled to a part of the gear assembly that can be rotated about the drive axis.

A first side wall portion forming a body portion of a clamping member includes first convex members projecting toward a second side wall portion and being softer than the first side wall portion. The first convex members are disposed at positions of the first side wall portion adjacent to respective ends of the first side wall portion in an X axial direction (third direction).

A vehicle window including a panel having a first surface and a second surface and at least a window holder for firmly retaining the panel to a lifting system including an inner member having a bonding part to be bonded to a first surface of the panel, an outer member having a fixing part to be fixed to the lifting system and an assembling means. The bonding part of the inner member is bonded with a bonding material to the first surface and the outer member is assembled to the inner member via the assembling means to clutch the panel.

A door hinge assembly includes: a door frame defining a frame opening and a jamb at one side of the frame opening, the jamb including two frame corners protruding into the frame opening and a jamb brace connecting the two frame corners across the frame opening, the jamb brace defining two spaced-apart hinge holes therethrough; a door movable to selectively provide access through the frame opening, and an elastic cord connecting the door to the door frame, the cord extending sequentially through a first of the two hinge passages, through a first of two passage openings at the jamb edge, through a first of the two hinge holes, across the jamb brace, through a second of the two hinge holes, through a second of the two passage openings at the jamb edge, and through the second of the two hinge passages.

A glazing unit for a vehicle which can be moved heightwise includes a window including at least one hole and at least one window bracket. The window bracket includes a flange including a plate positioned facing one face of the window, and a hollow tubular sleeve of which a wall extends into the hole in the window along a thickness, and a counter-flange including a counter-plate positioned facing another face of the window and a tubular counter-sleeve of which a wall extends along a thickness into the sleeve of the flange.

A method for producing a wall for a piece of furniture involves providing two panel-form core halves, of which at least one has at least one aperture extending only along a portion of a side surface of the core half. A fitting or fitting housing is inserted into the at least one aperture and the two core halves are joining together to form a composite element enclosing the fitting or fitting housing. Side surfaces of the two core halves are located one upon the other. A narrow-surface coating is applied to at least one end surface of the composite element, the end surface being oriented transversely to the side surface. An opening is formed in a portion of the at least one end surface. The opening extends as far as the fitting, or the fitting housing.

A retaining element for a side window of a vehicle, includes at least one contact section for securing to a first surface of the side window, wherein the contact section has a contact surface that is provided for being connected to the first surface via an adhesive, a securing section connected to the contact section and for securing to the vehicle, and a filling opening for injecting the adhesive into the intermediate space between the contact section and the first surface of the side window, wherein the contact surface has a plurality of channels that are directed toward the filling opening and are distributed over the contact surface in a fan-like manner.

A holder-equipped window glass includes a window glass having a holder and formed in a curved shape having a first radius of curvature in section in a sliding movement direction in a state where the window glass is mounted on a vehicle. The holder includes a connecting portion and a holder body. The connecting portion extends in a direction away from a lower edge of the holder body, and the connecting portion at least partly includes a circular arcuate portion having a second radius of curvature in section in the sliding movement direction.

The object of the present invention is an improved double leaf adhesive hinge for fixtures, shutters, hatches or similar formed by one or more bodies and capable to operate a rotational join between two elements by using a series of alternated folds on the front and back of the element itself, as an alternative to the standard rotating pivots or hinges, operative in order to enable to open or rotate said elements even up to 360°. Preferably, the single body is shaped and is applicable by means of a simple adhesive application, to one or more angular or linear sides, in order to enable to join fixtures and shutters or similar with specific rotation functions of the same. The elements joined by the hinge according to the invention rotate by the alternation of one or more pairs of hinges, formed by folds, positioned one opposite to the other thereby forming a double Z (Zed) system translated, and not overlapped.

A surface protection device is provided comprising a shock-absorbent object characterized by a semi-spherical shape, a flat underside, and a flattened area at a topmost point of the object wherein the device attaches to one of a moving object and a stationary object. The device absorbs shock associated with the moving object making contact with the stationary object. The device is continuous and solid and is made of gelatinous synthetic material. The underside of the device is coated with adhesive material and attaches via the underside to the one of the moving object and the stationary object. The shock-absorbency of the device further absorbs noise associated with the contact of the objects and is substantially transparent and unobtrusive.
