Patent number: 8291548Abstract: A diagonal motion door hinge for a vehicle door includes an upper door connection plate having a second motion assembly pivotally mounted to the upper door connection plate. The axis of rotation of the second motion assembly is perpendicular to the upper door connection plate. A first motion assembly is mounted to the second motion assembly at a first motion hinge. The first motion assembly is adapted to connect to an upper portion of a vehicle door. The lower door connection plate includes a lower door connection plate stopper and a lower shock connection. The lower door connection plate stopper has a lower door double motion stopper surface. A point of contact between the ballpoint and the lower door double motion stopper surface is offset from a horizontal motion hinge pin axis to provide a first diagonal motion.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2011Date of Patent: October 23, 2012Inventor: Johnnie Yip

Publication number: 20060123592Abstract: A motor vehicle has an adjustable door hinge assembly that allows movement of a door of the vehicle in one or more directions. In one arrangement, the door can be rotated about a first axis from a closed position to a partially opened position. The door can be rotate about a second axis from the partially opened position to a fully opened position. When the door is in the fully opened position, a person can easily ingress or egress the motor vehicle. The adjustable door hinge assembly can have one or more adjustment assemblies that can be used to determine the position of the door when the door is in the closed position, partially opened, fully opened position, and/or any position therebetween.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2004Publication date: June 15, 2006Inventor: Johnnie Yip
