Abstract:
The present invention relates to a household appliance (1) such as a dishwasher or an oven, the front door (3) of which is opened by pulling from the top downwards, comprising an adjustment mechanism (5) that balances the weight of the door (3) so that while the door (3) is being opened it doesn't fall by its own weight or closed in a hard way. The adjustment mechanism (5) comprises a spring (9) that applies a tensile force on the door (3), that is pulled to be tensioned by the pulling cable (10) which is activated by an adjustment rod (6), an endless screw (7) and a gearwheel (8).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a device (1) for facilitating the bidirectional opening of leaves of door or similar structures, which can be housed all through the extension thereof within a seat (17) inside each leaf (9) and comprising a lobed pivot (4) being fastened to the frame (8) of the door and a tracer element (5) pressed against the lobed element (4) with an adjustable pressure. The number and location of the lobes (10) along the outer perimeter of the lobed element (4) define the open/closed preset positions for the leaf (9).
Abstract:
An assembly for automatically opening and closing a sliding door of the type including a fixed frame panel (3) and a moving panel (4) which slides in a track (5) relative to the fixed panel; The assembly comprising: A housing (17) having a wall defining an internal space; A support assembly including a base and means to secure said base to a fixed support surface (6); A drive assembly including a motor (19) having a drive shaft; A drive wheel mounted to the drive shaft and which engages a rail (23) attached to the moving panel of the sliding door. The drive wheel is energised by said motor, the engagement between said wheel and said rail causes the movable panel to move between a first location when the door is closed and a second location when the door is open.
Abstract:
In a sliding gate (1) mounted on wheels sliding on a straight rail a movement system is provided that comprises a straight rack (2) integral with the gate (1), engaging means (5,105) for engaging the rack (2) to produce the horizontal movement of the gate, and activating means (9) for moving the engaging means (5,105), said engaging means (5,105) comprising a wheel (11,111) having an axis substantially parallel to the horizontal direction of the translation of the gate and having engaging elements (8,108), arranged on its lateral circumferential outer surface, to engage with said rack (2).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a spindle or worm drive for adjusting devices, especially seat adjustment devices, window lifters and sliding roofs, in motor vehicles. The inventive drive consists of a fixed spindle or relatively fixed toothed rack which is secured to the first of two parts that can be adjusted in relation to each other and to a gear which is secured to the second of said two parts. The gear elements (91; 92; 92') are mounted in a housing (7) which consists of at least two plates (71a; 71b; 72a; 72b) that can be secured to each other by means of plug-type connectors. Said connectors are also configured as supporting joints that absorb the forces of the gear.
Abstract:
A rotary body (14) having an eccentric reception bore (16) for receiving a bearing journal or a pivot pin is rotatively adjustable in a bore (12) of a bearing block (10). An adjusting screw (22) is transversely arranged to the bearing bore (12) and extends therethrough. The adjusting screw (22) can rotate in the bearing block (10) but is fixed in the axial direction. The adjusting screw (22) is tangent to the rotary body (14), so that when the adjusting screw (22) is rotated, teeth (30) of the type of worm wheel teeth are shaped in the rotary body (14).
