    Abstract: Briefly, the invention involves a hinge construction. The hinge construction includes a pair of contoured wing members connected at one end with a living hinge, each wing member including a portion of a hinge barrel. The wings are constructed to be folded around a hinge pin, forming the hinge barrel and positioning the wings in a generally parallel relationship with respect to each other. A portion of a wall or door jamb is positioned between the wings. Fasteners or the like are secured through the wings to fix the assembly, whereby the hinge pin is free to rotate within the barrel created by the folded wings.

    Abstract: A conductive hinge is made of a superelastic shape memory alloy such as nitinol (NiTi) having a large elastic strain limit for enabling the hinge to bend to a small radius during stowage and flexible return to a trained rigid hinge position by training the shape memory alloy to assume a predetermined deployed configuration when released from a stowage configuration. The hinge is trained by forging at a temperature above a training temperature. The hinge is stowed and released in the superelastic state to deploy solar cell panels as the hinges unfold to the trained deployed configuration.

    Abstract: The present relates to a molding process for, and structural configuration of, a cable assembly. More particularly, the present invention includes a cable assembly including a housing having a conduit and a clam-shell encasement integral with the conduit. The housing defines a passage that extends through the housing. The present invention also includes a method for manufacturing a cable assembly including the steps of forming a housing having a conduit and a clam-shell encasement integral with the conduit. The encasement is movable between an open position and a closed position and the housing defines a passage. The method further includes the steps of disposing a cable in the passage and placing the encasement into its closed position.

    Abstract: A trim component for a vehicle incorporates a spring-loaded living hinge for connecting a door. Preferably, the door includes a rigid panel having a first portion and a second portion joined by a flexible region comprising a living hinge. A spring biases the first portion away from the second portion. Preferably, a pivot point is located adjacent the flexible region and helps to secure the spring to the first and second portions. The door is secured to the trim component by a latch that holds the first portion relative to the second portion. Release of the latch permits the spring to rotate the first portion away from the second portion. Thus, a door incorporating the present design is capable of rotating the first portion relative to the second portion in an unassisted fashion in opposition to the force of gravity.

    Abstract: A connection system for interconnecting various components, such as components of an overhead garage door system, is provided which includes, in one aspect, a first component having a pair of spaced apart hook members, an intermediate guide member and a detent extending from a planar body of the first component. A second component includes a pair of spaced apart apertures which are shaped and aligned to receive the hook members, and an intermediate aperture which is shaped and aligned to receive the guide member upon registration of the first and second components in face-abutting relationship. As the first and second components are translated relative to each other, the detent of the first component engages the intermediate aperture of the second component to thereby establish a connection between the first and second components. Connection of a roller bracket to a door stile of an overhead garage door system is provided by the novel connection system, as well as connection of a door stile to a door panel. In a second aspect of the invention, interconnection of horizontal tracks, vertical tracks and track radiuses is provided by the novel connection system to form continuous door tracks on opposite sides of a door frame.
