Ligature resistant swinging door system

A swinging door assembly includes a frame mount, a door panel, and a pivot assembly operably connecting the door panel to the frame mount such that the door panel is pivotable in two opposite directions from a closed position to first and second opened positions. When the door panel is pivoted in the first direction by an angle less than a threshold angle, or is pivoted in the second direction by an angle less than the threshold angle, the door panel is biased toward the closed position by virtue of a weight of the door panel, and when the door panel is pivoted in the first direction by an angle greater than or equal to the threshold angle, or is pivoted in the second direction by an angle greater than or equal to the threshold angle, the door panel is no longer biased toward the closed position.

Interlocking Molding with Sightline Elimination Flange for Toilet and Other Partitions

A flanged interlocking molding is provided for use in toilet partitions or other partitions, and which eliminates the sight lines along each edge of the partition door. The flanged interlocking molding, formed of a single piece of material can be arranged on a component of the partition, such as a door and/or a pilaster. The flanged interlocking molding comprises a body portion; a first arm extending from a first edge of the body portion; a flange comprising include parallel layers of the metallic material including a first layer extending in a first direction away from the body portion, and a second layer extending from the first layer in a direction opposite the first direction; and a second arm extending from the second layer of the, the second arm including an edge arranged parallel to an edge of the first arm with a gap formed therebetween.

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.

Process for Manufacturing an Interlocking Molding with Sightline Elimination Flange for Toilet and Other Partitions

A method for manufacturing an apparatus, such as a flanged interlocking molding for use in partitions such as restroom partitions is provided. The method comprises providing an elongated strip of a metallic material having a flat profile to a device comprising a roll former comprising a plurality of dies in series, each of the plurality of dies being configured to modify a profile of the elongated strip; and modifying the profile of the elongated strip from the flat profile to a profile comprising a plurality of profile segments separated by bends in the metallic material, by passing the elongated strip through the plurality of dies sequentially to define the profile. The profile segments include segments corresponding to a first arm, a body portion, a first flange layer, a second flange layer, a second arm of the apparatus.

Door with finger pinch prevention function

A door having a finger pinch prevention function is provided that can prevent a finger jamming accident between a door frame and a door by making sure that there is no gap between the door frame and the door coupled to one side of the door frame, in the process of opening and closing the door. The door has an effect of preventing a finger from being caught because a gap does not occur in a corner portion where the door and a coupling frame abut, even when the door is opened or closed, by combining the coupling frame coupled to one side of the door frame and the door through a hinge. Furthermore, by configuring a cover in the corner portion where the coupling frame and the door abut, the hinge is not exposed to the outside, so that the appearance can be seen appealing.

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.

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.
