DOOR HINGE DEVICE FOR VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18381013 titled 'DOOR HINGE DEVICE FOR VEHICLE
The vehicle door hinge device described in the patent application includes a case set diagonally towards the outside of a vehicle body, a slide case that can slide with respect to the main case, a sliding arm connected to a door hinge bracket fixed to the end portion of the door, and a driving unit with motor-driven screws to slide the slide case and sliding arm simultaneously.
- The device includes a unique diagonal case design for efficient operation.
- It features a slide case that can move independently of the main case.
- The sliding arm is pivotally connected to the door hinge bracket for smooth door movement.
- The driving unit consists of motor-driven screws for precise control of the slide case and sliding arm.
- The device allows for simultaneous sliding of the slide case and sliding arm with respect to the main case.
