Abstract:
Door assemblies having magnetized bumpers for use with vehicles are disclosed. The door assemblies comprise a bumper assembly for use in a vehicle having a door that when fully opens contacts an adjacent body panel. The bumper assembly includes a bumper having a base and a distal end opposite the base. The base is configured for fixed attachment to the first exterior surface of a vehicle. The bumper is made of an elastomer and/or plastic and is configured for removable engagement with a second exterior surface. A magnet is provided with at least a portion of the magnet embedded in the body between the distal end and the base. The magnet is located within the bumper sufficiently close to the distal end to exert an attractive magnetic force sufficient to retain a door in contact with the bumper but without the magnet directly touching the door.
Abstract:
A door hinge (10) according to the invention comprises a first hinge element (12) which is fastenable to a door frame (24) and a second hinge element (14) which is fastenable to a door leaf (28) and has a first hinge blade (20) and a second hinge blade (22). A first pivot axis (32) is connected, when the door hinge (10) is in a first operating condition, to the first and second hinge elements (12, 14) in such a way that the second hinge blade (22) of the second hinge element (14) is pivotable, when the door hinge (10) is in said first operating condition, about said first pivot axis (32), relative to the first hinge element (12), in a first pivot direction (Px), for the purpose of unblocking a door aperture which is bounded by the door frame (24). The first pivot axis (32) is decoupled from the first or the second hinge element (12, 14) when the door hinge (10) is in a second operating condition. A second pivot axis (48) is connected to the first and second hinge elements (12, 14) in such a way that, when the door hinge (10) is in the second operating condition, said first and second hinge elements (12, 14) are pivotable about said second pivot axis (48), relative to one another, in a second pivot direction (P2) which is opposed to the first pivot direction (P1), for the purpose of unblocking the door aperture which is bounded by the door frame (24).
Abstract:
A guide mechanism for a door comprises a first guide unit and a second guide unit; the first guide unit is coupled to a second side frame plate at an opening end of a casing; the second guide unit is coupled to a movable side of the door; the second guide unit is disposed with a groove, a upside of an outer end of the groove is disposed with a propping inclined face; an inner end of the propping inclined face is lower than an outer end thereof ; the movable side of the door will then not incline downward when the groove accepts the first guide unit and the first guide unit is propped against a upside of an inner side of the groove.
Abstract:
Example embodiments relate to a side door for a motor vehicle, comprising at least one hinge device for pivotal connection of the side door to one of the body posts of the motor vehicle, the hinge device including a first hinge half adapted to be fastened to one of the body posts of the motor vehicle, a second hinge half which by means of a joint is fastened to a first side of the side door, a hinge pin which pivotally connects the first hinge half to the second hinge half in such a manner that the side door is pivotable about a vertical axis, defined by the hinge pin, between an open and a closed position, the joint including at least one threaded bolt which extends horizontally, from the first side of the side door, through a through hole in the second hinge half and through a through hole in the side door, and projects from a second side of the side door, a threaded nut element arranged around the through hole on the second side of the side door and in threaded engagement with the threaded bolt. The side door is characterised in that the nut element extends through the through hole in the side door and projects a small distance from the first side of the side door into the through hole in the second hinge half.
Abstract:
A window lifter arrangement, in particular for the side windows of an automotive vehicle, containing a drive- and guide mechanism for driving and guiding a window pane which is retained by a window pane retainer, and a stop component which is a stop member for the window pane retainer, characterised in that window pane retainer and stop component are fixed to each other by a form-fitting and/or frictional and/or integral mounted connection, this mounted connection being able to be separated by an initial actuation of the window pane retainer for opening or closing the window pane.
Abstract:
A hinge for wings or doors, in particular of electrical appliances, having a first element, a second element and a rocker lever for connecting the first and second elements; the lever pivots on the second element and has a first arm integral with the first element to render the first and second elements movable relative to one another with a tilting action between a closed position and an open position; the second element consisting of a substantially box-shaped body containing both elastic parts, inserted between the second element and a second arm of the lever to apply an elastic action on the lever, and a damping device, for applying a damping action on the lever during the reciprocal motion of the first and second elements, when the closed position is almost reached.
Abstract:
A wedge shaped door stop used for wedging beneath a lower edge of a swinging door to prevent the door from moving, is removably stored within a resilient socket which is adhesively attached to the surface of the door which is adjacent to a wall surface when the door is swung open. The socket is shaped to closely receive the stop when the stop is not used. The assembled stop and socket or, alternatively the socket itself form a resilient bumper arranged between the door and the wall surface to prevent direct contact of the door against the wall when the door is swung open.
Abstract:
A universal magnetic door stopper with an air buffering structure comprises a stopping assembly fixed on a wall and an adsorber fixed on a door panel. The stopping assembly includes a base, an air cylinder, a support piece, a screw and a washer. The adsorber includes a powerful magnet, a bush, an elastic member, a screw and a washer. By such arrangements, the air cylinder of the stopping assembly will cooperate with the elastic member of the adsorber to provide a buffering effect, and the universal pivoting feature of magnet will maintain a surface contact relation between the adsorber and the stopping assembly, so that they can be attracted to each other firmly.
Abstract:
A drive arrangement for a motor vehicle door or hatch which can be moved by a motor with a planet gear and a brake device with a brake. The brake device has a brake drive which is separate from the drive which drives the drive shaft and the brake is able to be moved at least from one of two positions into the other of the two positions by the brake drive. The brake can be an arc-shaped clip pivotally supported by a pivot axle with an inner periphery which is matched to an outer periphery of an element of the planet gear. The brake can be combined with the brake drive as an eddy current brake or can be operated by a further gearing or use of a permanent magnet with which an electromagnet is able to interact.
Abstract:
A smoke release and ventilation system comprises a frame housing upper and lower members each slidable in the frame between a normally closed position and an open position, the upper member being retained in its upper position by retaining element, for example an electromagnetic, the upper member being heavier than the lower member whereby, on release of the retaining, the upper member falls under gravity to its open position, and, consequential upon said fall of the upper member and the kinetic energy thereof, the lower member is raised to its open position, thereby providing gaps above and below the members and through which smoke can escape.
