Abstract:
A driving module of a motor-driven power trunk includes a pivotable lid hinge configured to open or close the trunk lid. A main arm is pivotably installed in a vehicle body. A sub arm constrains the lid hinge and is linked to the main arm. A motor is provided on the main arm and is configured to pivot the main arm and the sub arm so as to automatically open or close the trunk lid.
Abstract:
The double-pivot synchronization is characterized in that each leaf is connected to an opening arm by an opening pivot. The other end of the opening arm is connected to a second pivot. This second pivot adds a degree of freedom to the components that are connected to it and thereby, frees them from the constraints imposed by the rotation of the leaves on the hinges. These components can thus be synchronized more easily. The mechanism comprises an arrangement of rigid elements, connected between them and attached to the frame.A first embodiment has a rail and is particularly suitable for manufacturers of furniture and cabinets who use custom-made components. A second embodiment, with rail, is better suited to a shallow frame and simplifies the adjustment to the width of the leaves. A robust and versatile third embodiment has gear teeth and mainly targets walk-through doors and recessed synchronization mechanisms.
Abstract:
A furniture drive is provided for driving a movable piece of furniture. The drive includes an electric motor, an actuator that can be moved back and forth between two end positions to apply a force on the piece of furniture to be driven, and a gearbox connected between the electric motor and actuator. The gearbox has at least one gear stage configured as an eccentric gearbox and includes two gear wheels that mesh with each other. One of the two gear wheels is firmly connected or coupled to the actuator, and the other gear wheel is coupled to the electric motor such that the eccentric gearbox has two limit positions which correspond to the end positions of the actuator. Upon a rotation of the gear wheels, starting from the limit positions, the gear ratio decreases over a deformed rotational angle range.
Abstract:
A cover opening-closing apparatus includes a base member having a guide groove, a cover member that is provided with a guide cylinder part disposed so as to be freely movable in the guide groove, a first contact member that contacts the guide cylinder part and moves when the cover member is located at the open position, a second contact member that contacts the guide cylinder part and moves when the cover member is located at the closed position, and a single spring that urges the first contact member moving at the opened position toward the guide cylinder part and urges the second contact member moving at the closed position toward the guide cylinder part.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a hinge comprising a moveable hinge section and a hinge section consisting of a fixed stop section, which are interconnected by at least one joint axis, and comprising a damping device mounted on one of the hinge sections whose translationally or rotatably moveable damping member is acted upon at least in the closure region of the hinge via gear means from the other hinge section. According to the invention for adjustment of the moveable damping member depending on the tilt of the moveable hinge section relative to the at least one joint axis, there is provided at least three moveable gear members are provided, of which one is the damping member itself.

Abstract:
A counterbalancing hinge for range oven doors or the like includes the following features: (a) articulated members one of which is a bracket adapted to be secured to a supporting body structure such as a range and the other of which is an arm adapted to be received within an oven door or the like and carrying a counterbalancing spring, (b) means for selectively adjusting the counterbalancing spring, (c) door leveling means, (d) an arm latching and locking device activated when the door is removed from the arm, (e) a strain separable detent carried by the spring supporting arm to restrain the arm selectively in door-partially open position, (f) counterbalancing spring action controlling mechanism, (g) spring for retaining the door so it can be removed only when in partially open position, (h) only a screwdriver is needed for installing or removing the counterbalancing hinge relative to the installation, (i) only a screwdriver is needed to, adjust, remove or replace the counterbalancing spring.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the technical field of spring hinges, and to a silent spring hinge, which addresses the technical shortcoming that relatively high noise is generated when an existing spring hinge used in a household appliance drives a cabinet door to close. The silent spring hinge includes a fixing base, a hinge arm and a spring assembly, a damping assembly corresponding to a side edge of a rotating wheel being further provided on the fixing base, the damping assembly including a sleeve body, a steel ball, a spring and a lock nut, an outer wall of the sleeve body being snap-fitted on the fixing base, the steel ball, the spring and the lock nut being mounted within the sleeve body in sequence, a portion of the steel ball being exposed from the sleeve body and being elastically connected to the side edge of the rotating wheel, and a deceleration groove and a self-locking groove mated with the steel ball at a final stage of the process of closing a cabinet door being provided on a gear edge of the rotating wheel. By means of the present invention, the closing speed of the cabinet door is effectively reduced, and an effect of damping is achieved, such that the cabinet door is closed in a more stable manner, and a force of the spring assembly is not affected after the spring assembly drives the cabinet door to close. The present invention is particularly suitable for use on such products as ovens and microwave ovens.
Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur motorischen Verstellung einer Kraftfahrzeugtür (1), wobei die Kraftfahrzeugtür (1) im Rahmen eines Schließvorgangs von einer Offenstellung in eine Schließstellung verstellbar ist, wobei ein der Kraftfahrzeugtür (1) zugeordneter Türantrieb (4) und eine Steuerung (5) vorgesehen sind, wobei die Kraftfahrzeugtür (1) mittels des Türantriebs (4) ausgehend von der Offenstellung in Schließrichtung verstellbar ist. Es wird vorgeschlagen, daß in einem ersten Abschnitt (6) des Schließvorgangs die Kraftfahrzeugtür (1) mittels des Türantriebs (4) von der Offenstellung in eine Komfortoffenstellung, die zwischen der Offenstellung und der Schließstellung liegt, verstellt wird und daß in einem zweiten Abschnitt (7) des Schließvorgangs die Kraftfahrzeugtür (1) durch den Benutzer manuell und weitgehend frei vom Türantrieb (4) von der Komfortoffenstellung weiter in Schließrichtung, vorzugsweise in die Schließstellung, verstellt wird.
