Pinch-preventing safety hinge for hinged door
The present invention provides a pinch-preventing safety hinge for a hinged door, which connects a door to a doorjamb mounted in a wall so that the door is opened or closed while rotating about the doorjamb and which includes a hinge unit including a fixing member secured to the doorjamb and a rotary member secured to one side end of the door and hingedly coupled to the fixing member so as to rotate, and a shielding unit rotatably coupled to a rotary shaft of the fixing member or the rotary member, the shielding unit being fixed to the fixing member by hinge motion of the hinge unit.
Assembly of Door and Door Frame With Reduced Risk of Squeeze Caused Injuries
Assembly of door and doorframe, the door at a back vertical edge is hinged to a doorframe hinge side of the doorframe using door hinges at the upper and lower end of the door. The doorframe hinge side is designed with a cavity while a cover is rigidly attached to the door hinges up and down. The cover has a bore pivotally attached to cover hinges with vertical pivotal axis at the doorframe hinge side having a dimension adapted to be received within said cavity in the doorframe hinge side when the door is shut The cover has a curvature with a convex outer surface having the shape of a cylinder surface of a vertical imaginary cylinder, while the bore is so positioned that it forms a center axis in the imaginary cylinder and that this center axis is positioned externally in relation to the cavity.
DOOR, DOOR CLOSING ARRANGEMENT AND DOOR ASSEMBLY
A door is provided for restricting access through a doorway aperture. The door is defined at one or more peripheral faces, and is movable between a closed position in which the door is substantially aligned with the doorway aperture and an open position in which the door is pivoted from alignment with the doorway aperture to either side of the doorway aperture. The door has a door member defining a pair of major faces and at least one minor face at a peripheral edge of the major faces where a cross-section of at least one of the minor faces of the door member is configured to be substantially curved, so that in operation when the door is moved between its open position and closed position from either side of the doorway aperture, the minor faces remain proximate to at least one peripheral face of the doorway aperture.
PINCH-PREVENTING SAFETY HINGE FOR HINGED DOOR
The present invention provides a pinch-preventing safety hinge for a hinged door, which connects a door to a doorjamb mounted in a wall so that the door is opened or closed while rotating about the doorjamb and which includes a hinge unit including a fixing member secured to the doorjamb and a rotary member secured to one side end of the door and hingedly coupled to the fixing member so as to rotate, and a shielding unit rotatably coupled to a rotary shaft of the fixing member or the rotary member, the shielding unit being fixed to the fixing member by hinge motion of the hinge unit.
Snap-on safety guard for door gaps
A snap-on safety guard for door gaps preferably includes a jamb split tube and a cover plate. The jamb split tube includes a lengthwise gap. A curved jamb device is retained in a kerf slot of a kerf-style door frame. A molding lip extends inward from one end of the curved jamb device and a kerf lip extends inward from an opposing end thereof. A U-shaped clip is retained in a kerf slot of a kerf-style door frame. The U-shaped clip includes a kerf base, an inner kerf lip and an outer kerf lip. An L-shaped clip is retained in a kerf slot of a kerf-style door. The cover plate preferably includes a flat plate with at least one living hinge formed parallel with a length of the cover plate. An inner surface of the cover plate is attached to one of the jamb tubes.
