-Concept- Sugatsune's new challenge, the "Toughness & Beautility Handle," serves as the interface between humans and machines. By re-evaluating the concept of handles from the ground up, the "Toughness & Beautility Handle" was born. "Strength: Toughness" Understanding the harshness of the work environment, we establish unique standards (load tests and internal specifications) for the handle based on the specifications and standards required in various industries, and we carry out design and development accordingly. "Functional Beauty: Beautility" We value not only the beauty of the handle itself but also the harmony when it is attached to a device. Additionally, we focus on designing for comfort and usability when the handle is actually gripped. The "Toughness & Beautility Handle" emphasizes the beauty of the handle as an individual component, as well as the harmony when attached to a device. We also prioritize comfort and usability in the design when the handle is held.

What is a slide rail? It is a linear motion component for straight motion mechanisms. It is also called a telescopic rail. There are high-performance rails equipped with self & soft-closing mechanisms that suppress impact when closed, and structures that are less prone to creep phenomena. This publication includes almost all the fundamentals of slide rails, ranging from ultra-small and ultra-thin models in the smallest class of the industry to ultra-high load capacity, ultra-heavy, and ultra-large models in the largest class! 【Table of Contents for the Book on the Basics of Slide Rails】 ● Structure of Slide Rails ● Basics of Slide Rails ● Various Lineups ● Guide Rails are Also Available! ● Selectable Mechanisms ● Solutions to These Challenges! ● Case Studies / Application Examples ● Precautions When Installing Slide Rails ● Considerations for Load Capacity (22 pages in total)

● This is a hinge that closes by its own weight and can be slowly closed at the end with the force of a damper. ● It allows for easy installation and removal of the door due to its insert and remove capability. ● The closing speed of the door can be adjusted. ● It has a structure that prevents insertion and removal when closed (0°). ● It allows for position adjustment of the door (±3 mm front and back, left and right).

● It is a concealed hinge type that is not visible from the front. ● The closing speed of the door can be adjusted with a hexagonal rod wrench. ● The retracting function slowly pulls the door in. *This information is as of September 2021.*

● When you wave your hand, it opens automatically with a sensor. (During normal operation, the sensor area has a green light.) It can be opened and closed without contact, making it hygienic. ● The sensing distance of the sensor can be adjusted up to 300 mm using the dial on the back. You can also stop the automatic opening and closing by turning off the sensor detection. ● It has a soft close feature. ● It is designed with plates on both sides inside the waste entry to prevent hand pinching. ● It can be opened and closed manually in case of a power outage. *This information is as of August 2022.*

We have adopted the adjustable one-way torque hinge model HG-TQJ100 for the cover opening and closing section of the conveyor belt. 【Key Issues】 - We want to ensure that the cover does not close unexpectedly so that workers in food factories can clean safely. - We want to use it for covers of multiple conveyor belts of different sizes. - We want to lower the overall height of the equipment. 【Solutions】 Cleaning the conveyor belt is done by opening the cover, but it is dangerous if the cover closes unexpectedly during the process. We proposed a product that can securely hold the cover open to prevent accidental dropping. Additionally, since the cover is heavy, we suggested a one-way torque hinge instead of a standard torque hinge. This allows torque to occur in only one direction, making it more comfortable and safer to open and close. Furthermore, the torque adjustment feature was well-received as it allows one product to accommodate covers of various sizes. The installation height inside the conveyor belt is limited, and supports or gas springs cannot be installed, but we were able to solve these issues with just the hinge, which also allowed us to lower the overall height of the equipment.

"Transportation" is an essential means of daily movement. Aiming for the safety and comfort of passengers and those working at stations, we continue to propose the future of transportation through the "movement" and "design" of mechanical components created by technology and motion design tech that adds further movement to opening and closing mechanisms, enhancing the convenience and satisfaction of vehicles and station interiors. We will introduce mechanical components tailored to specific scenes, such as hooks for hanging luggage on seats and trash disposal openings on decks, through illustrations!

(3) Widely usable with aluminum frames from various manufacturers! Our products can be widely used with aluminum frames such as □20, □30, and □40.

【Assist Torque Hinge HG-TAWJ40 Type】 - Equipped with a "power assist function" in the torque hinge. It opens gently and stops firmly, providing an excellent operational feel. - Safe even with high frequency of opening and closing (has passed our company's opening and closing test of 50,000 cycles!) - There is no risk of tipping over even when opened more than 90°, making it recommended for large openings needed for top covers. (e.g., filling machine inlets, waste processing machine inlets, food machinery, etc.)

The power assist hinge HG-PA230-25 has been adopted for the cover opening and closing part of the chip mounter. [Key Issues] - There is not enough space to install a gas spring, but an assist function is desired when opening. - We want to make the device easy to see the stacked indicator lights. [Solutions] Due to the heavy weight of the cover, conventional models used gas springs; however, the new model faced the issue of not being able to install a gas spring due to the internal device configuration. The power assist hinge allows for the heavy cover to be opened easily with just the hinge, making it possible to replace the gas spring. Additionally, since it utilizes the spring's counterforce, there is no concern about gas leakage, which was also appreciated. We chose a type that can be installed inside the device, making it possible to have a device where the stacked indicator lights are easy to see. This product can be easily selected using the selection tool "Suga-kun," and simulations can be conducted before prototype verification. The customer in this case also first used the selection tool "Suga-kun," and after prototype verification, it was adopted for mass production models.

The "HG-TQJD type" is a damper torque hinge that can stop precisely at any angle. With the damper in effect, it is also possible to close slowly and securely. This enhances safety and operability while reducing the number of components. Additionally, torque is generated in one direction. Since very little torque is generated in the opposite direction, it allows for smooth operation without the need for a stopper. 【Features】 ■ Torque adjustment function included ■ Can stop the lid or door at any desired position during opening and closing, and can also change the speed of closing ■ Torque is generated in one direction ■ Smooth operation due to minimal torque generated in the opposite direction ■ No stopper required *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

【All Stainless Steel Cam Lock Fastener】 ● Locking and unlocking can be done with a one-touch operation by simply pressing the head of the plug. ● The structure is designed to be resistant to disconnection due to vibrations, as it locks with a cam. ● When locked, the plug becomes flat, making it ideal for preventing accidental release and enhancing the design of the device. 【Benefits for the Personnel in Charge of Operations】 - Panels can be attached and detached with one push, leading to a reduction in labor costs. - Since parts do not fall off the panel, the risk of loss and the costs associated with parts management can be reduced.
