Abstract:
A stabilizing assembly includes a retaining device settled between a drawable carrier and a cabinet body for preventing the drawable carrier from swinging in sliding. The retaining device includes two rails fixed to two opposite laterals of the drawable carrier. Each of the rails has a rack. Two gears engaging with the racks are connected by a rod and rotate simultaneously. Two bushes connected to two ends of the rod are received in supporting seats that are fixed on the cabinet body or the drawable carrier and allowed to shift vertically. Two stop portions, as a stop unit, each extending from the rail toward a side of the rod opposite to another side of the rod facing the rack on the rail, are closely adjacent to the retained portions so that the bushes are retained and stopped by the stop unit, and disengagement between the racks and the gears is prevented.

First the support member 8 is mounted on the housing 1, and then, at least one of the paired door opening/closing devices 4 connected by the connecting member 5 is mounted on the one support member 8.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a synchronization device for moving a first actuating device in synchronization with at least one second actuating device, wherein the first actuating device and the second actuating device are provided on a piece of furniture in the installed state in order to move a movable furniture part. The device includes a synchronization rod for transferring a synchronous motion of the at least two actuating devices, at least one fastening device, by which the synchronization rod can be detachably connected to at least one of the two actuating devices, wherein at least one detachable locking device is provided, which prevents the synchronization rod from being connected to the at least one fastening device in the locked state of the locking device, wherein the locking device is in the locking state without prior actuation by a user.
Abstract:
A vehicle includes at least one tailgate defining a door plane, wherein the tailgate is attached to the vehicle chassis in a jointed fashion by at least one multiple hinge having at least three pivot axes offset from one another and at least two pairs of pivotally connected hinge arms, of which a first hinge arm is pivotally connected to the vehicle chassis and a second hinge arm is pivotally connected to the tailgate. The multiple hinge is associated with a drivetrain controlling the motion of the hinge arms in the pivot axes. The door plane is moved along a predetermined motion path when the tailgate travels from a closed position, in which the tailgate spans a closed plane, to an open position, in which the tailgate spans an opening plane. The motion path of the door plane includes rotary and translational components, and the closed plane forms an angle to the opening plane in the range from 70° to 110°, preferably about 90°.
Abstract:
A cupboard-shaped piece of furniture (1) includes side walls (2), on each of which a control mechanism (4) for the displacement of a door leaf (7) is arranged, whereby the control mechanisms (4) are connected by means of a synchronisation rod (10) for the synchronised movement thereof. The synchronisation road (10) includes a fixing device (12) on at least one end region for the detachable connection of the synchronisation rod (10) to a rotating piece (17) of the control mechanism (4), the fixing device (12) being embodied such that the synchronisation rod (10) may also be connected to the rotating piece (17) when the rotating piece (17) is already pre-assembled on a side wall (2) of the piece of furniture (1).
Abstract:
A vehicle door articulating mechanism including an articulating hinge assembly having a hinge arm pivotally mounted to a vehicle structure at one end thereof, a vehicle door pivotally mounted via first and second hinge mounts to the hinge arm at an opposite end of the hinge arm, a first cam mounted to the first hinge mount at one end of the hinge arm, a second cam mounted to the second hinge mount at an opposite end of the hinge arm, and a belt encircling both first and second cams. The hinge arm is disposed at first and second angular positions when the vehicle door is respectively disposed in closed and opened positions. The vehicle door articulating mechanism allows the door to articulate away independent of an adjacent vehicle door during initial and continued opening of vehicle door.
Abstract:
A hinge mechanism (200) for a portable electronic device (100) is provided. The hinge mechanism includes a first shaft (202) that is capable of rotating about a first axis (206). The hinge mechanism also includes a second shaft (204) that is capable of rotating about a second axis (208), wherein the second axis in substantially parallel to the first axis. A link (210) connects the first shaft and the second shaft, wherein the link enables the first shaft and the second shaft to rotate in opposite directions.
