Abstract:
A hinge damper with a housing perimeter profile of less than 360 degrees such as a semi¬ circular or wedge-shaped perimeter. The damper includes a rotor which is operatively connected to a bin or other structure being controlled. The damper is moveable through a damping fluid in the housing along an arc between about 30 degrees and 180 degrees to provide resistance as the bin or other device is being manipulated. Variable damping torque may be applied throughout the rotation by varying the gap between the rotor and the housing.
Abstract:
A damped hinge comprising: a first leaf (32) for securing the hinge to a fixed support; a second leaf (35) for securing a moveable closure to the hinge; a barrel (33) secured to the first leaf (32), the barrel (33) including an axial bore (34); a piston (30) mounted for axial movement within the bore (34), the piston (30) including a cam surface (45); an axially extending member (39) constrained to rotate with the second leaf (35), the member (39) including a cam follower (42) arranged to engage the cam surface (45); the cam surface extending axially so that the piston (30) moves axially within the bore as the second leaf is rotated in relation to the first leaf; a hydraulic fluid contained within the bore (34); at least one of the piston (30) and member (39) including a passageway through which the hydraulic fluid may flow as the piston moves within the bore; wherein the passageway includes an adjustable valve (48, 49) to restrict the flow of fluid to damp opening or closing of the hinge.
Abstract:
A multifunctional door lock of the present invention includes a door lock unit (200) mounted on a hinged door (100), a powerless DC motor (300) mounted on the door lock unit, and link units (400,410) wherein one end of each is connected to the DC motor and the other ends are mounted on a door frame such that the link units are open or folded when the hinged door is open or shut. The door lock unit (200) controls the open/shut speed of the hinged door by varying the brake resistance value of the DC motor (300) when the hinged door is open or shut. A relay switch (700) is connected to both ends of a power line (330) of the DC motor (300) to short circuit the DC motor as needed. The door lock unit causes a short circuit to the DC motor (300) by the relay switch (700) and keeps the hinged door (100) unmoved if needed.
Abstract:
Dämpfungsvorrichtung (10), insbesondere zur Dämpfung der Bewegung von beweglichen Möbelteilen von Möbelstücken, mit einem in einem Gehäuse (12) längsverschieblich gelagerten Kolben (14), welcher in Abhängigkeit von seiner Verschiebungsstellung auf gegenüberliegenden Seiten zwei größenveränderliche, mit einem fluiden Dämpfungsmedium gefüllte Arbeitsräume bildet. Über wenigstens eine Überström-Verbindung ist einen gedrosselter Übertritt des Dämpfungsmediums zwischen den beiden Arbeitsräumen möglich, wobei auf einer Seite des Kolbens (14) eine aus dem zugeordneten stirnseitigen Ende des Gehäuses (12) abgedichtet herausgeführte Kolbenstange (28) angeschlossen ist, über deren kolbenabgewandtes äußeres Ende die Bewegung des zu dämpfenden Möbelteils auf den Kolben (14) übertragen wird. Auf der dem kolbenstangenseitigen Arbeitsraum (26) gegenüberliegenden Seite des Kolbens (14) ist ein langgestreckter Einstellschaft (38) mit einem dem Durchmesser der Kolbenstange (28) im Wesentlichen entsprechenden Durchmesser angeschlossen, dessen freies Ende ebenfalls abgedichtet aus der der dem kolbenstangenseitig geschlossenen Stirnseite gegenüberliegenden Stirnseite aus dem Gehäuse (12) herausgeführt ist. Das am Kolben (14) angeschlossen Ende des Einstellschafts (38) greift in einen die beiden Arbeitsräume verbindenden Durchlasskanal (42) des Kolbens (14) ein und ist so ausgebildet, dass es durch Verstellbewegung des Schafts (38) relativ zum Kolben (14) einen größenveränderlichen Drosselquerschnitt im Durchlasskanal (42) bildet.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an arrangement in a pivotal screen or screen section for substantially continuous adjustability and parking of the screen in the desired position, the screen or screen section being provided with an upper hinge and a lower hinge, and the lower hinge being provided with a conicity for achieving a braking effect against pivoting of the parts in relation to one another.
Abstract:
In order to keep the braking moment in doors with a pivoting brake for the continuously progressive braking moment variation with different inclinations of the pivoting axis of the doors to the vertical within a determined range, rules are given for calculating said braking moment, especially in relation to the braking moment thereof causing the door to be unintentionally closed and for an advantageous variation of said braking moment over a door pivoting angle.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a fitting arrangement having a furniture connecting fitting, in particular a hatch holder, which can be used to attach a furniture hatch or a door can be to a cabinet body in a swiveling manner, wherein an interlock (200) and a bracket (300) are provided, which can be used to connect the furniture hatch in a form-fitting and/or form-locked manner to the furniture body in a closed position of a kinematic arrangement (30) of the furniture connecting fitting, wherein the kinematic arrangement (30) has levers and links, which can be used to move the furniture hatch or door from the closed position into an open position, wherein a spring element (38.2) is provided which, in the closed position of the kinematic arrangement (30), introduces a prestress into the kinematic arrangement (30) in the opening direction, and wherein the interlock (200) and the bracket (300) form a release mechanism, which can be used to release the connection between the interlock (200) and the bracket (300) in the closed position of the kinematic arrangement. Such a fitting arrangement can be used to effect a convenient opening of a door or hatch from the closed position.
