Convertible door system and method of operation

摘要

The present disclosure is generally directed to a system and method of operation for a convertible door system including a door accessible compartment having a moveable dividing wall that substantially divides the compartment into a first and a second sub-compartment. A first door assembly, configured to allow access to the first sub-compartment, is disposed between a first of two opposing sidewalls and the moveable dividing wall. A second door assembly, configured to allow access to the second sub-compartment, is disposed between a second of the two opposing sidewalls and the moveable dividing wall. A first and a second hinge assembly are adapted to rotationally join the first and second door assembly to respective opposing sidewalls. A third hinge assembly is adapted to rotationally join the moveable dividing wall to either the first door assembly or the second door assembly.

主权项

1. A convertible door system comprising:
a door accessible compartment including a rear wall and two opposing sidewalls; a moveable dividing wall that substantially divides the door accessible compartment into a first sub-compartment and a second sub-compartment, the moveable dividing wall being releaseably joined along a first edge to the rear wall; a first door assembly disposed on an outward section of the door accessible compartment between a first of the two opposing sidewalls and the moveable dividing wall, the first door assembly configured to allow access to the first sub-compartment; a first hinge assembly adapted to rotationally join the first door assembly to the first of the two opposing sidewalls; a second door assembly disposed on the outward section of the door accessible compartment between a second of the two opposing sidewalls and the moveable dividing wall, the second door assembly configured to allow access to the second sub-compartment; a second hinge assembly adapted to rotationally join the second door assembly to the second of the two opposing sidewalls; and a third hinge assembly adapted to rotationally join a second edge of the moveable dividing wall to at least one of the first door assembly or the second door assembly, where the third hinge assembly being adapted to be releaseably disjoined from the door accessible compartment while still being rotationally joined to the at least one of
the first door assembly rotationally joined by the first hinge assembly to the first of the two opposing sidewalls, orthe second door assembly rotationally joined by the second hinge assembly to the second of the two opposing sidewalls, where the first door assembly and the second door assembly may each comprise one of a unitary door or a combination of an integrated door within a door frame.
