Abstract: A damper device for an automatic folding chair enables the seat of the chair to be turned downward to a ready-for use position without being subjected to any braking force when it is lightly pushed down. When the use leaves the seat in the ready-for-use position, it automatically and slowly returns to an upright position under a braking effort exerted thereto.

Abstract: A device for detachably and pivotally connecting a pair of objects such as a toilet seat and lid to a toilet bowl. The device includes a receiving member fixedly mounted on the toilet bowl and a main body connected with the toilet seat and lid. The main body includes a spring biased hook assembly engageable with the receiving member and being manually released from engagement with the receiving member to enable separation of the body and receiving member to thereby enable separation of the toilet seat and lid from the toilet bowl.

Abstract: According to the invention, there is provided a door hinge comprising a spring that plays the role of both a torsion spring and a compression spring, wherein its resilient force is used for axially pressing a movable cam against a matching fixed cam it comprises and thereby facilitating the opening and closing motion of the door with which it is used by giving said cams such specific configurations that the spring accelerates the opening motion of the door from a given angular position of the door and locks the door at a particular open position and at a closed position.

Abstract: There is provided a lift coat hanger comprising an ingenious damper that can be selectively operated with a view to decelerate the rotary motion of the arm and softly stopping it as it comes to the open or closed position, while the construction of the overall lift coat hanger is made rather simple and hence can be realized at a reduced cost.
