  • Patent number: 8060983
    Abstract: A cushioning device for opening and closing of sliding shutters, particularly of sliding shutters for furniture, to be applied as a single item to each shutter or sliding partition, in order to be able to cushion an end part of their opening and closing movement. The cushioning device includes a cushioning box applied with brackets for support and sliding of the individual shutter; this box being equipped with two opposing braking devices of a rotary type, whose toothed hub directly meshes with a rack fixed to the box, each braking device being joined to its own slider guided by the box and being joined at one end by an elastic device with its opposite end joined to the other slider, both sliders being equipped with a hook for activating and deactivating the corresponding action of the final section of travel to be cushioned.

  • Patent number: 7647728
    Abstract: Sliding doors, e.g., for pieces of furniture, particularly of the kind with two shutters and reduced height, having coplanar closing and opening by overlapping of the shutters. Support and translation of each shutter is provided by a respective clamp placed on the edge of the outer side, the clamp being linked to a pair of little carriages that can slide transversally with respect to the same shutter, because they are supported and guided by a respective carriage, which in turn can slide longitudinally along the edge of an opening, the respective carriage being led by a rail and control tracks, and engaged by a loose roller that constrains the respective carriage into a couple of longitudinal cams or grooves.

  • Patent number: 7441372
    Abstract: A balancing and equilibration device for suspended elements, e.g. doors, pieces of furniture, and windows that can be moved vertically, to allow their easy movement and balanced positioning at any point of their vertical travel. Supporting ropes are wound up to be translated in spiroid rims of a pair of opposing pulleys, the pulleys being integral with each other via a shaft rotatable on a bearing structure. The shaft is concentric to a helical spring that includes one end integral with the shaft and another end integral with a friction disc that can be blocked to its support to block the other end of the spring, whose opposite side is bound to turn with the shaft to increase or decrease its torsion reaction with changing movement of the pulleys, to assure balancing of the balanced translation of the element on a frame to be vertically covered or uncovered.
