  • This assembly removes several parts used in previous assembly requiring sliding block and an adapter screwed on the moving hinge body.
  • This new assembly improves the mounting procedure by eliminating the screw connection to the door hinge.
  • the hole wherein the free end of the pin may slide is used to compensate tolerances between the moving hinge body and the transmission means, for example a lever.
  • the transmission means and drive unit can be attached to the hinge with less effort than prior art solutions requiring a complex arrangement with sliding block and adapter screwed on the door hinge.
  • the device according to the invention may also comprise one or more of the following characteristics, taken separately or in combination:
  • the hole is longitudinally shaped, for example the hole is a substantially oblong hole or even a slot;
  • the transmission means comprises a lever;
  • the pin may slide radially in the hole regarding the longitudinal axis of the lever;
  • the lever has a first end connected to the drive unit and a second end provided with the hole for receiving the free end of the welded pin for connection to the moving hinge body.
  • the lever is generally pre-assembled to the drive unit.
  • the drive unit is thus attached to the hinge by engaging the hole of the lever to the pin mounted on the moving hinge body;
