A piston and cylinder type damper with a cylinder containing damping fluid. The damper is operable to perform a compression stroke and a return stroke. A piston rod that can engage with both a piston assembly and a return means. A sealing element is movable axially with respect to said piston rod such that said sealing means is operable to engage with both said piston assembly and said return means, such that, in said compression stroke the sealing means engages solely with said piston assembly, and in said return stroke engages solely with said return means.

Dampers

A hinge assembly including a hinge cup, a hinge arm and a hinge lever pivotally connected to both the hinge cup and the hinge arm so as to connect the two together. The assembly further including a damping device and an actuator assembly operable to activate the damping device as the hinge assembly moves from an open position to a closed position. The actuator assembly is operable to move from a second position to a first position to actuate the damping device, where the hinge arm engages with the actuator assembly to cause said movement from the second position to the first position.

Hinge assembly

A movement control device comprising a housing with an elongate push rod mounted therein for reciprocal movement along a longitudinal axis between first and second positions, wherein the push rod extends out of said housing in both the first and second positions. A spring comprising a primary axis operable to provide a biasing force on the push rod is further provided in the housing. A damping device comprising a primary axis is located in the housing, wherein the damping device is in continuous engagement with the push rod through its reciprocating movement. The primary axis of the spring and the primary axis of the damping device are not coaxial.

Movement control device

A device controls closing movement of a drawer in a drawer cabinet. The device includes an actuator driven by a spring for imparting a biassing force to the drawer as it closes. The actuator is mounted on a housing, which is itself mounted on the cabinet, and is movable back and forth in the direction of movement of the drawer. A damper is mounted on the housing and is operable on the actuator to impart a damping force on it in a sense to resist the closing movement of the drawer. The actuator is triggered by a catch mounted on the drawer. The housing and catch are mountable without need of pre-drilling and include locating members for determining their relative positions on the cabinet and drawer respectively.

Damper assemblies

A damper assembly is provided for a toggle type hinge with a mounting flange () and an arm assembly () pivotally connected thereto. The assembly comprises a damping device () that is actuable along a linear axis and a housing () mounted on the mounting flange to retain the damping device. The assembly further comprises means for converting pivotal movement of the hinge into linear actuation of the damping device. This comprises an actuating lever () connected to the damping device and engageable with the hinge arm assembly via a first camming mechanism causing the actuating lever to rotate in response to pivotal movement of the hinge arm assembly. A second camming mechanism causes linear displacement of the actuating lever in response to its rotational movement.

A damper assembly for a hinge includes a damper unit () with a piston arranged to be moveable over a working stroke within a cylinder () containing damping fluid. The damper unit () is mounted on a bracket () and retained in position by a housing (). A mechanism is provided for converting rotational movement of the hinge in at least part of one direction into actuation of the damper unit () on its working stroke. The movement converting mechanism is arranged to act on the cylinder () at a position substantially outside the range of movement of the piston on its working stroke. The arrangement minimises the transmission of radial forces from the movement of the door to the cylinder ().

Damper assembly for a hinge

A hinge assembly has first and second parts pivotally connected together. One of the parts has a hinge cup () and is connectable to a first element such as a cupboard door. The other part is connectable to a second element such as the cupboard carcase. The assembly includes a linear damping device (), which is actuable to provide a damped resistive force over at least part of the range of relative pivotal movement between the two hinge elements. The linear damping device () is conveniently mounted within the hinge cup ().

Hinge having hinge cup

A piston and cylinder type damper is provided, with a cylinder () having a piston assembly () mounted for reciprocal movement therein. The piston assembly () divides the cylinder () into two separate chambers (), with a restricted flow path () for passage therebetween of damping fluid contained within the cylinder. A piston rod () is mounted for reciprocal movement with respect to the cylinder () and acts via a first one of the chambers () on the piston assembly () in a first direction. A seal assembly () is provided for sealing between the piston rod () and the cylinder () in order to retain damping fluid in the first chamber (). The seal assembly () is movable axially with respect to the cylinder (), with the cylinder further including a centering device () for assisting alignment of the seal assembly ().

A damper assembly includes a cylinder () having a piston assembly () mounted for reciprocal movement therein. The piston assembly () divides the cylinder () into separate chambers with a restricted flow path therebetween for passage of damping fluid contained within the cylinder. The restricted flow path is defined between elements whose shape and/or relative position is designed to vary with temperature.

A hinge assembly in the form of a toggle type hinge includes an arm assembly () anchorable in use to a first member and a cup flange () pivotally connected thereto and anchorable in use to a second member. The assembly includes a linear damping device () and a mechanism for converting pivotal movement of the hinge into actuation of the damping device, at least over part of the range of this pivotal movement. The movement converting mechanism is arranged to produce the actuation of the damping device () through rotational movement about its linear axis via transmission of at least two equal and opposite forces acting symmetrically about this axis.

A hinge assembly includes a toggle type hinge mechanism () with a linear damper () arranged with its longitudinal axis parallel to the axis of movement of the hinge mechanism. First and second wings () operate the damper. First and second striker plates and an arm assembly () activate the first and second wings in response to movement of the hinge mechanism.

Hinge assemblies

A damper assembly includes a piston and cylinder type damper with a piston () mounted for reciprocal movement in a cylinder () containing damping fluid. The piston () is acted on by a piston rod () which includes a reaction surface for engaging the piston. The cross-sectional area of the reaction surface is designed to be significantly greater than the cross-sectional area of the piston rod () in order to spread the load exerted on the piston (). Also, the piston () is designed to engage the piston rod () at its inner end in a manner that provides lateral guidance for the inner end of the piston rod in its movement in the cylinder ().

A damped hinge assembly is provided that comprises a hinge unit () and a damping unit (). A mechanism is provided for connecting the two units together for purposes of transportation and handling, as well as for ease of installation. The connecting mechanism allows the units to move relative to one another between a transit state, which allows access for installation purposes, and a working position in which the damping unit is operative to provide resistance to closing movement of a door.

Damped hinge assemblies

A damped hinge assembly mounts a first member () for pivotal movement relative to a second member () about an axis of rotation (). The assembly includes a linear damper (), which is mounted with its longitudinal axis parallel to the hinge axis, and a cam drive arrangement () for converting the pivotal movement of the first member in at least one direction of rotation into linear displacement of the damper. This causes the damper to produce a damped resistive force to counter the pivotal movement of the first member. The longitudinal axis of the damper is arranged to be coincident with the hinge axis.

A piston and cylinder type damper has a cylinder () with a piston assembly () which is mounted for reciprocal linear movement therein. The piston assembly () divides the cylinder () into separate chambers with a restricted flow path extending therebetween for passage of damping fluid contained within it. A piston rod () is mounted for linear reciprocal movement with respect to the cylinder () and is arranged to engage the piston assembly () with abutting contact. The contact between the piston rod () and piston assembly () is arranged to be remote from the restricted flow path.
