This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17870229 titled 'DOOR CONNECTION STRUCTURE

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a door connection structure for vehicles, which includes a door guide, a door hinge arm, a door hinge, a first catcher, and a center striker. Here are the key points:

* The door guide is responsible for guiding the door in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body.
* The door hinge arm is mounted on the vehicle body and includes a hinge rotation shaft and a door rotation shaft. It rotates around the hinge rotation shaft when the door is sliding.
* The door hinge is rotatably mounted around the door rotation shaft and connected to the door.
* The first catcher is rotatably mounted on the door hinge arm and has a center striker guide formed on it.
* The center striker is inserted into the center striker guide to rotate the first catcher and limit its rotation when the door swings around the door rotation shaft.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Automotive industry: This door connection structure can be used in various types of vehicles, such as cars, trucks, and SUVs.
* Vehicle manufacturing: It can be integrated into the production process of vehicles to enhance the functionality and durability of the doors.

Problems solved by this technology:

* Improved door guidance: The door guide ensures smooth and accurate movement of the door in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body.
* Enhanced door rotation: The door hinge arm and hinge rotation shaft allow the door to rotate smoothly when sliding.
* Controlled door swinging: The first catcher and center striker mechanism limit the rotation of the door when swinging, providing stability and control.

Benefits of this technology:

* Improved door functionality: The door connection structure enhances the overall performance and functionality of vehicle doors.
* Increased durability: The design and components of the structure contribute to the durability and longevity of the doors.
* Enhanced safety: The controlled door swinging mechanism ensures safer operation and reduces the risk of accidents.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A door connection structure includes a door guide for guiding a door in the longitudinal direction of a vehicle body, a door hinge arm mounted on the vehicle body, and including a hinge rotation shaft and a door rotation shaft, the door hinge arm rotating around the hinge rotation shaft when the door is sliding, a door hinge rotatably mounted around the door rotation shaft and connected to the door, a first catcher rotatably mounted on the door hinge arm and of which a center striker guide is formed thereto, and a center striker which is inserted into the center striker guide to rotate the first catcher and limits rotation of the first catcher when the door swings so that the door swings around the door rotation shaft.
