Abstract:
A deceleration device comprises a cylindrical container (14) housing at least one friction disc (16) against at least an internal wall of the cylindrical container (14), and a movable cursor (18), actuated by an external element, for the actuation of the friction disc (16), the friction disc (16) being bound to the cylindrical container (14) through constraint means which permit a roto-translational motion in order to acquire a further sliding contact surface in addition to the internal wall of the cylindrical container (14) at the end of the initial translation phase of the cursor (18) in which the friction disc (16) is subjected to a mainly or completely translational motion.

The hinge (1) for furniture comprises at least one deceleration device attached to the outside of the hinge box (4), an actuating lever (12) for the deceleration device, supported in oscillating fashion in the hinge box (4), and elastic return means to bring the actuating lever (12) back to an initial position, the deceleration device comprising a housing body (15) which extends peripherally along a side wall (9) of the box (4) and has means for fixing it to the side wall (9), the elastic return means being located on the housing body (15) outside the box (4) and providing at least one elastic arm (16) which protrudes into the inside of the box (4) through an aperture (17) in the side wall (9) of the box (4) to connect operatively with the actuating lever (12).
Abstract:
A rotation control device is configured so that a spring force of a torsion coil spring holds an attitude of a rotation body at a pre-advancement position corresponding to a post-return position (a), and a post-advancement position corresponding to a pre-return position (b), respectively. The rotation control device includes a first rotation part supporting one end of the torsion coil spring and supported on a fixed body so as to rotate as the rotation body rotates, and a second rotation part rotatably supported on the fixed body at a first rotation part side and supporting the other end of the torsion coil spring. When the first rotation part rotates, the second rotation part rotates together with the first rotation part. A wound portion of the torsion coil spring is most elastically deformed when the rotation body is at an intermediate position (c) between the position (a) and the position (b).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a damper for damping a rotational or linear movement of a component, preferably a component moveably mounted in the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle, having a damper housing, characterized in that at least one illumination source and/or at least one sensor, as well as an electrical connecting device for connecting the illumination source or the sensor to an electrical supply, are integrated into the damper housing.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an automatic door closer including: a main housing having the shape of a cylinder; a damper housing adapted to divide the interior of the main housing into an upper chamber and a lower chamber and having oil charged thereinto and a fixed vane formed at one side of the inner peripheral surface thereof in such a manner as to be projected toward the center thereof; a cover fixedly coupled to the upper periphery of the main housing; an activating shaft having one end extended to the outside through the cover in such a manner as to be rotatably supported and the other end rotatably supported against the bottom surface of the main housing through the damper housing; a rotary vane formed integrally to the outer periphery of the activating shaft so as to divide the interior of the damper housing into first and second chambers, together with the fixed vane; a return spring adapted to provide a returning force of returning the activating shaft to an initial setting position at the time when the door is closed; and damping means adapted to selectively provide a damping function if the activating shaft and the rotary vane are rotated in a closing direction of the door.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an adjustable hinged door closer, including a seat with the first and second cylinders, and a first and a second elastic linkage unit. A double-threaded regulator is incorporated onto the first connecting rod of the first elastic linkage unit, so as to change the compression of the spring and regulate the closing/restoring force of the door body. The double-threaded column of the double-threaded regulator has a double-thread that shifts to two thread pitches by just making one rotation, thus facilitating the fine-tuning easily. The elastic linkage unit and the regulator are structurally configured to be assembled externally, and then mated with the connecting seat of the door closer.
Abstract:
A damper assembly incorporating a bushing adapted to rotate within a wall structure and engage a post on a bin or other element to be controlled. The bushing defines a hub of an integral, coaxial rotor which rides within a fluid containing housing. The bushing and rotor rotate concurrently about a common axis during rotation of the bin or other device being controlled. The drag on the rotor thereby slows the rotation of the engaged post and the associated bin or other structure being controlled.
Abstract:
The device for decelerating at least the closing rotation of a furniture hinge, comprises a container housing a first rotating friction element in contact at a first friction surface with the bottom of the container, a second fixed friction element overlapped to the first rotating friction element with which it is in contact at a second friction surface, and at least a third rotating friction element overlapped to the second fixed friction element with which it is in contact with at least a third friction surface, constraint means between the first friction element and the third friction element, a slider movable along a direction of translation at least during closing rotation and kinematic means for conversion of the translation of the slider into a rotation of the first and third friction element in such a manner as to create a dragging friction at the first, second and third friction surface.
Abstract:
Furniture hinge with at least two fitting parts for fixing to furniture parts, one of the fitting parts being designed as a hinge arm and at least one joint lever which pivots during the hinge movement and a rotation damper for damping a hinge movement, wherein a slide, movably mounted on the hinge arm may be driven by the pivotable joint lever and the slide acts on the rotation damper by means of a transmission mechanism (T).
Abstract:
In a rotary damper 1 including a cam surface 3f formed in a lower end surface of a large-diameter portion 3b of a rotor 3 and including a cam surface 4f formed in an upper end surface of a piston 4, the cam surface 4f being capable of contacting the cam surface 3f, the cam surfaces 3f, 4f pressed to contact each other by a coil spring 9 biasing the piston 4, the piston 4 is prohibited from being moved toward the large-diameter portion 3b beyond a predetermined second position. Coil spring 9 does not rotationally bias the piston 4. The coil spring 9 biases the piston 4 only such that the piston 4 approaches the large-diameter portion 3b.
