The base is secured to the outer end of each door body.

Abstract: A hinge consisting of a base, a rotating member mounted to one end of the base through a pair of link arms, the rotating member being supported by a spring in a closed or open condition. The base is formed out of a single piece of sheet metal by bending and shaping so as to have a pair of side plate portions to be fitted over projections of a member on which the hinge is mounted; a connecting plate portion formed integral with, and provided between, the link arm mounting sides of the pair of the side plate portions; and screw support plate portions bent inwardly from the pair of the side plate portions so that they face the projections of the member on which the hinge is mounted, the screw support plate portions being joined together to be shaped like a letter U, the joint part of the screw support plate portions being formed with screw insertion holes.

Abstract: A hinge having a base fixed to a piece of furniture and to which a pivotable member attached to a door is joined so that the pivotable member can be turned so as to be opened and closed, the hinge being fixed to a mounting member attached to a body of furniture. A rear screw engaged with the mounting member is inserted into and engaged with a recess in an upper wall of the base with the head of the rear screw positioned above the recess as the base is moved slidingly from the front side on the mounting member so as to be fitted thereon, and the head of a front screw which is engaged with the mounting member is opposed to an opening in the upper wall of the base from the lower side thereof so as to be engaged at least from the upper side with locking members on the base. The mounting member is made longitudinally symmetric, so that the base can be secured to the mounting member in two directions.

Abstract: A magnet catch wherein a magnet assembly is installed in a case from the front opening in such a way that it can be moved back and forth, an adjust cam is secured to an adjust spindle rotatably mounted to one side portion of the case and disposed in a direction perpendicular to that in which the magnet assembly advances and retracts, a cam groove is formed on the adjust cam in such a manner that the cam groove radius from the adjust spindle as the rotating center continuously changes, and a cam pin projecting from the magnet assembly is engaged with the cam groove.

Abstract: A hinge of the type wherein a rotor is connected to a front part of a base by link arms in such a manner as to be capable of rotating with respect to the base, and the base is fitted to the fitting member which is fitted to the main body of furniture. The base is provided with a set screw having a ring-like engagement portion at the tip thereof, an elongated hole, and a sliding member having hook portions and pawl portions fitted by a screw inserted through the elongated hole. The fitting member is provided with a notch to which the ring-like engagement portion of the set screw engages from forward side, recesses with which the hook portions of the sliding member are engaged, and a lever having grooves engaging with the pawl portions of the sliding member from forward side, urged forward by a spring rotatably.

Abstract: A hinge of the type wherein a rotor is connected to be rotatable to a front part of a base by first and second link arms, the base is supported by a set screw on a fitting member which is mounted on a body of furniture and at least one of the link arms is urged so as to keep the rotor closed. The one of the link arms has a cam surface that is formed on the side of the base, and the base has a frame member pushing the cam surface, so that when the rotor is closed the frame member engages the under side portion of the cam surface to urge the rotor in a direction such that the rotor is closed.

Abstract: A door device for furniture, which has a plurality of door members provided laterally in opposition to each other in a front opening of a furniture body, longitudinal sliders capable of moving the door members in the longitudinal direction with respect to the furniture body, and a lateral slider capable of moving the door members in the lateral direction with respect to the furniture body, the front opening being opened by sliding one of the door members forward and then sideways to superpose the door member on the front surface of the adjacent door member, a plurality of support rails fixed to the portions of the furniture body which correspond to the door members, and a support roller which is adapted to engage a support rail on the side of the door member adjacent to the door member to be opened, when the lateral slider is extended to more than a predetermined extent during the lateral sliding of the door member to be opened to cause the lateral slider to be inclined slightly due to the load of the same do

Abstract: A turntable wherein a base member supports rotatably a rotatable member through a shaft and a bearing. The bearing consists of a plate member positioned between the base member and the rotatable member and rollers which are rotatably held in a plurality of roller retaining bores formed in the plate member. The shaft is inserted rotatably through the plate member. The bores extend radially around the shaft.

Abstract: A shelving device wherein a side plate of a shelf is connected to a shelf plate through an insert attached to the side plate and an engagement member attached to the shelf plate. The insert has its portion buried and fixed in the side plate and is formed at one end of its buried portion with a generally trapezoidal receiving portion gradually narrowed upward and on both its sides with sloped faces. The engagement member has its engagement portion adapted to be buried and fixed in the lower face of one end portion of the shelf plate and is formed at one side of its engagement portion with an engagement recess gradually narrowed upward to fit the receiving portion therein and at both the sides of its engagement recess with a dovetail groove having sloped faces closely engaging the sloped faces on the two sides of the receiving portion.

Abstract: An article-joining device wherein an engagement projection is formed on a body of a fastening member adapted to be rotatably fitted in a second member, the second member being connected to a first member through a connecting rod, and a cylindrical fastener case is provided to be fitted on the outer side of the body of the fastening member and is formed on its outer side with a plurality of fixing ridges to be retained in a mounting hole of the second member, in its side with an insert hole corresponding to the insert hole of the fastening member, in its inner side with a guide groove extending longitudinally thereof for guiding therein the engaging projection of the fastening member, and in an upper portion of its inner side with a step extending circumferentially thereof and merging into the guide groove for engaging and supporting the engaging projection.

Abstract: A device to lock a door body provided on a main body, wherein by a sliding body provided slidably on a framework attached to the inside of the door body and having such an operational mechanism as to be pushed within the framework by first pushing and to be protruded forwards by second pushing, a hook body provided turnably within the framework is protruded out of a window hole provided at one side of the framework so as to be engaged with and disengaged from the main body side. The sliding body has a knob at its outside.
