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.
Piece of furniture and assembly for use in a piece of furniture
An item of furniture includes a first furniture part, a second furniture part, and furniture hinges for pivotally connecting the first furniture part and the second furniture part. The furniture hinges are spaced apart from each other along a longitudinal direction of the first furniture part and the second furniture part, and a gap is defined between the first furniture part and the second furniture part. A cover portion extends at least between the furniture hinges so that the gap can be at least partially covered. The first furniture part and the second furniture part can be moved by the furniture hinges into a position in which the first furniture part and the second furniture part are aligned so as to be substantially coplanar relative to each other whereby the cover portion is substantially covered by the first furniture part and/or the second furniture part.
Protective cover device and method to manufacture said cover device
A cover device for covering the angle formed between the edge of a hinged door and a door frame includes first and second elongate bodies, each body having substantially parallel sides and divided by hinge lines parallel to the sides into a plurality of elongate panels. The first body is mountable at one end to the door, and the second body is mountable at one end to a frame relative to which the door hinges. The hingeable connection between the bodies is by at least one longitudinal channel and at least one longitudinal protrusion which locates within the channel to be removeably held within it but able to move longitudinally with respect to it, and thereby to act as a hinge whilst enabling the relative longitudinal movement between the elongate bodies.
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. An adjustable jamb split tube includes a first jamb section and a second jamb section. A curved jamb device is retained in a kerf slot of a kerf-style door. 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. The U-shaped clip includes a kerf base, an inner kerf lip and an outer kerf lip. 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.
Safety device and method
A safety device suitable for use with hinged doors or windows, as well as methods of installing such a device. The device comprises an elongate exclusion member that is adapted to fit within the hinge gap in an open door and acts to prevent or significantly reduce the risk of injury to a subject through entrapment of fingers of other appendages in the hinge gap present in many door and window systems. The device of the present invention is particularly suitable for retrofitting to existing door and window systems.
Safety guard for door gaps
A safety guard for door gaps preferably includes a telescoping tube cover, a compression spring, a top bushing, a top hinge tube and a bottom pin bushing. The telescoping tube cover includes a first tube and a second tube. The compression spring is inserted into first tube and the second tube is inserted into the first tube. The top bushing is inserted into a top of the second tube. The second bottom bushing is inserted into a bottom of the first tube. A second embodiment of the safety guard includes the telescoping tube cover, the top bushing, the top hinge tube, the bottom pin bushing and a fastener. A third embodiment of the door safety guard preferably includes a safety tube, a top pin bushing, the bottom pin bushing and an extra length hinge pin.
DOOR OPENING/CLOSING APPARATUS AND HINGE
A door opening/closing apparatus is provided which can expand storage space in a main body. A door opening/closing apparatus includes at least two hinges, and a connecting bar that is connected to the at least two hinges. Each hinge includes a main body-side member, a door-side member, a main arm, a first link, and a second link, and causes a door to move parallel to itself between a closed position and an open position. The main arm includes a bent portion. The connecting bar is mounted on a door side of the main arm. A center of the connecting bar in a width direction thereof is placed on a second shaft side relative to a center between a first shaft and the second shaft of the main arm in a front view of the door in a state where the door is in the closed position.
Hinge stile gap blocking apparatus
This invention relates to a hinge stile gap blocking apparatus and to a method designed to prevent hand and finger injuries resulting from inadvertent door closures. The apparatus includes a pair of joined elongate members, each elongate member is joined to the other by an elastic band which extends through the opening of a door frame hinge stile gap with each joined elongate member residing on opposite sides of the hinge stile gap. The elongate members move when the door is pivoted, but are sufficiently tensioned against the hinge stile such that hands and fingers cannot be placed in the hinge stile gap when the door is open.
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.
