Abstract:
Door closure apparatus comprising a hinge having a first hinge plate for attachment to one upstanding side edge of a door, a second hinge plate for attachment to an upstanding side edge of a doorpost and means for enabling relative rotation between the two hinge plates; and magnetic means comprising a first element which includes a magnet and a second element which includes a keeper plate to which the magnet is attracted; one of the elements of the magnetic means being supported from the second hinge plate and the other of the elements being supported by the first hinge plate or the door, the arrangement being such that the elements of the magnetic means co-operate to or control movement of the door between its open and closed position.
Abstract:
A vehicle door hing-mounted prop clip (10), comprises at least one flexible interference lobe (36) adapted to releasably contact a portion (30) of the hinge as the door is rotated about the hinge from a closed position towards an open position, said contact compressing the interference lobe and generating sufficient frictional resistance to releasably hold the door in a partially or fully open position.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device (2) for connecting a displaceable element (1), especially a glass, metal or wooden panel to a guiding device (93; 93a), said guide device being guided in a rail (91; 91a). The inventive device comprises a first and a second fixing part (31; 41). Said fixing parts contain outer panels (32; 42) and fitting elements (33; 43) which can be interconnected by means of an axle (35). Said fitting elements (33; 43) are inserted into a cut out section (11) on the edge of the displaceable element (1) and interconnected. The fitting elements (33; 43) encompass a connection screw (6) which can be connected to the guide device (93; 93), said connection screw (6) having a screw shaft (63) with a screw head (62), a securing element (61) and a thread. The fitting element (33) of the first fixing part (31) has a channel (36) for receiving the screw shaft (63), said channel having channel walls (34), a trough (39) for receiving the screw head (62) and a cavity (37) for receiving the securing element (61). Said securing element (61) can be stopped by a stop screw (53; 53a). The fitting element (43) of the second fixing part (41) has a recess (44) for receiving the channel walls (34) and an opening through which the screw head (62) can be accessed. The assembled device is adjusted by loosening the stop screws (53) by a few turns and turning the connection screw (6) until the displaceable element (1) is set at the desired height. The stop screws (53) are then re-tightened. The securing element (61) is part of the connection screw (6) and is encompassed in the device (2) so that the top edge of the displaceable element (1) can be drawn practically up to the rail (91; 91a).
Abstract:
A hatch power lift and locking system may include a hatch configured to cover an opening, the hatch being pivotable about an axis between a closed position and an open position. The assembly may also include at least one latch dog attached to the hatch, and at least one dog catch pin engaging with the at least one latch dog in the closed position. The at least one latch dog may include a latch slot for receiving the at least one dog catch pin, and a latch catch for engaging the at least one dog catch pin. The assembly may further include an actuator configured to move at least a portion of the hatch between the closed position and the open position.
Abstract:
A stopper for stopping rotation of a planar element with respect to a frame when the planar element is hinged to the frame, the stopper has a longitudinal axis and comprises: a locking bar having a toothed surface and received within an indentation, an operation handle for moving the locking bar out of the indentation, a locking spring having a locking tooth that is urged into the toothed surface, a releasing lever for releasing the locking tooth from the toothed surface, a retention spring for urging the locking bar into the indentation. A linear movement of the operation handle moves a portion of the locking bar out of the indentation, the locking bar abuts against the frame, and, the locking bar is fixed in its position by means of the locking tooth that is urged against the toothed surface.
Abstract:
A balcony glazing arrangement (1 ) comprises a window pane (9), which is horizontally displaceable along a track and is pivotable, about a vertical pivot axis (S) situated on one vertical side edge of the window pane (9), between a closed setting, in which the pane (9) extends along said track, and an open setting, in which the window pane (9) is pivoted away from said track, the window pane (9) having a first magnetic coupling part (39), which is arranged to cooperate with a second magnetic coupling part (33) arranged level with the first magnetic coupling part (39). The window pane (9) further has a magnetic transport member (47), which is arranged at a distance from the pivot axis (S) and level with a support (33a), and to, when the window pane (9) is pivoted from its open setting into its closed setting, come into contact with the support (33a) and transport said magnetic coupling parts (39, 33) in relation to one another.
Abstract:
In an aspect, a vehicle door control system for a vehicle having a vehicle body and a vehicle door is provided, and includes a check arm having an end that is mounted to one of the vehicle body and the vehicle door, a check arm holder at least a portion of which is mounted to the other of the vehicle body and the vehicle door, and a controller. The check arm holder is configured to apply at least three different amounts of braking force to the check arm. The controller is programmed to control the operation of the check arm holder based on input from at least one sensor.
Abstract:
A shower enclosure that includes a frame (10) that defines an opening and a bi-fold door (2) with first and second panels (3, 4) hinged together along respective first vertical edges (30, 40). Each panel (3, 4) is slideably or rollably connected to the frame (10) such that the door (2) is movable between a closed condition in which the panels (3, 4) are substantially coplanar and the door (2) substantially covers the opening and an open condition in which the panels (3, 4) lie at an angle to one another and the opening is at least partially open or uncovered. Each of the first and second panels (3, 4) includes a connector (8, 9) for releasably attaching the respective panel (3, 4) to the frame (2) at or adjacent a respective side of the opening.
