| 20090031528 | Damping mechanism for hinged doors - In a damping mechanism for a pivot door arranged in a door frame, comprising a door fixture arranged in or on the door panel, a frame fixture arranged in or on the door frame, a damper arrangement arranged in the door fixture or the frame fixture and a damper arrangement counter part mounted in the frame fixture or in the door fixture, a damper arrangement with a brake catcher provided with a damper member includes a spring element which pulls the brake catcher into the fixture and the damper arrangement counter part includes at least one trigger element which is abutted by the brake catcher during closing of the door, so that the damper arrangement begins to dampen the pivot movement of the door as soon as a fixture part of the door comes into contact with a fixture part of the door frame. | 02-05-2009 |
| 20100050377 | Door Mounted Finger Safety Device and Its Method of Use - A door check device to be mounted to a door for selectively maintaining a gap when door closing is attempted. This prevents injuries to children's fingers and the like. The door check includes a base with a journal having action arm pivoted at its proximal end. The arm has a distal end extending outwardly to engage a doorstop. Indexing sockets are formed along the arm's proximal end. Each socket collaborates with the nose of a spring-biased detent to retain the action arm in a preselected position. The arm may be set in a first position to directly engage the doorstop to form a gap. Set in a second position the arm allows door closing but, upon next opening, the arm automatically reverts to door checking position. In a third position the arm is fully lowered to disable the check device. This device may find application to a variety of closures. | 03-04-2010 |
| 20110094055 | UNIVERSAL DAMPING MECHANISM - A universal damping mechanism is provided, including a housing having a mounting surface for fixing the housing to an appropriate furniture or fixture surface. The mounting surface includes a bottom surface of a box-shaped portion of the housing, which further includes a pair of laterally opposed side surfaces extending upwardly from the bottom surface. Each lateral side surface includes a recessed portion defining a first opening of an angled hole communicating with a second opening of the angled hole provided in the bottom surface proximate a central portion thereof. A shock absorber subassembly is slidably positioned within a shock absorber receiving portion of the housing and has a first end extending from a first end of the housing, and an adjustment mechanism is coupled to a second end of the housing and adjustably engaged with a second end of the shock absorber subassembly within the shock absorber receiving portion. | 04-28-2011 |
| 20110209305 | DAMPING DEVICE - A damping device comprises an axle, a housing, a unidirectional member, and a damping oil. The unidirectional member in cross section is formed like a T-shape, and a top portion thereof is formed as an arc to cooperate with the housing's inner wall. Where the unidirectional member contains a U-shaped slot defines oil holes interlaced with the gap of the first slot wall. The lifting of the cover is free from damping and the closing thereof performs a well damping capability. Even only a narrow angle is lifted, a delicate damping is still achieved. The undersized unidirectional member concurrently guarantees the structural strength. The diminished cross-section of the unidirectional member contributes to a smaller U-shaped slot. Therefore, while satisfying the turning angle, the thicknesses of the U-shaped slot's wall and the obstructing wall are assured to greatly prolong the using life of the present invention. | 09-01-2011 |
| 20120079680 | DOOR JAMB INJURY PROTECTOR - A door safety device for either a hinged or a sliding door which when closing places the vertical door side edge in a position abutting the vertical face of either of two sides of a door jamb, or the vertical face of another sliding door, or the threshold end of a sliding door track. The device employs a body in pivotal engagement with a resilient body for positioning the body in an as-used position between the door side edge and the vertical face to maintain a gap to prevent finger crushing. A curved leading edge provides a deflection of impact forces upon the resilient body to prevent marring of the vertical face of the door jamb or threshold. | 04-05-2012 |
| 20120246871 | DOOR CHECK LINK APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE - A door check link apparatus includes a check link formed by molding a synthetic resin on a surface of a core plate, and including a full open stopper including a projecting portion located at a tip end portion of the core plate, and having a width larger than a width of a detent surface, a bending piece formed at a first end portion of the projecting portion, and having a stopper surface confronting the stopper receiving surface, and a protruding portion formed on the projecting portion at a position farther apart from the stopper receiving surface relative to the stopper surface, and protruding in a direction substantially parallel to the stopper receiving surface, the full open stopper being formed by molding the synthetic resin on the tip end portion of the core plate including the projecting portion, the bending piece, and the protruding portion. | 10-04-2012 |
| 20150292251 | DOOR STOP DEVICE - A door stop device, includes a blocking mechanism ( | 10-15-2015 |
| 20150361707 | Door Stop Device And Method - A door stop device is described, having a first magnet connected to a door and a second magnet connected to a floor. The first magnet can be mounted on a movable arm so as to allow the first magnet to move upwards and downwards. The arm can be bias in an upward position via a spring or a third magnet so as to be maintained in an upward position when the first and second magnets are not aligned, but moves downward when the first and second magnets are aligned. | 12-17-2015 |
| 20160024828 | VEHICLE DOOR CHECKER - A door checker includes a stopper provided to a tip portion of a check lever and defining a door opening limit by engaging with stopper surfaces provided to an outer surface of a peripheral edge of a through-hole in a support body. The stopper is formed from paired first stopper portions engageable with paired first stopper surfaces arranged side-by-side with the through-hole therebetween, and paired second stopper portions engageable with paired second stopper surfaces. The first stopper portions are formed from metal-made protrusions integrally projecting from opposite sides of a tip portion of a lever core plate, and projecting from an outer surface of a synthetic resin-made covering portion. The second stopper portions are formed from synthetic resin-made portions of the outer surface located between the first stopper portions and swollen on opposite sides in a direction orthogonal to an arrangement direction of the first stopper portions. | 01-28-2016 |
| 20160083994 | DOOR STOPPER - A door stopper may include a control unit, a connecting piece and a rod. The control unit is anchored to the floor. One end of the connecting piece is connected to the control unit and the rod is mounted on the other end of the connecting piece. When the user needs the door to be retained, he/she can move the door toward the door stopper and slightly contact the top portion of the control unit to activate it, and the control unit will start to drive the connecting piece along with the rod to move about ninety degrees away from the wall to stop the door. Namely, the door stopper moves a quadrant from the lower portion of the wall surface to a lower portion of the door, and the door will be trapped between the control unit and the rod. | 03-24-2016 |
| 20160144931 | FOLDING HATCH COVER BLOCKING DEVICE - A stop block system for locking hydraulic cylinders is provided. The stop block system includes a plurality of axially adjacent layers that are arranged co-axially. The layers include a top layer having a bearing surface for receiving a load, one or more spacer rings for adjusting the height of the stop block system and transferring the load from the top layer to a base layer and a base layer for centering the stop block system and transferring the load from the spacer rings to a surface on which the stop block system rests. Each annular layer may be made up of two or more annular c-shaped components. The two or more components of one layer may be rotationally offset from the two or more components of axially adjacent layers. | 05-26-2016 |
