The application for the patent was published on July 03, 2026, under issue no. 27/2026.

Abstract: ABSTRACT A GRAVITY-ASSISTED REMOVABLE PIVOT MOUNTING SYSTEM FOR ROTATABLE PANELS A gravity-assisted removable pivot mounting system for rotatable panels comprises hollow pivot elements fixed to a stationary frame and corresponding hook-type pivot elements fixed to a rotatable panel. Each hook-type element includes a downward- facing pivot pin configured to engage within a hollow pivot element, such that the panel is supported primarily by its own weight. The engagement between the pivot pins and the hollow elements defines a substantially vertical pivot axis that permits smooth rotational movement. Installation is achieved by vertically lowering the panel to engage the components, while removal is accomplished by vertically lifting the panel without the use of tools or the removal of fasteners. The system transfers load predominantly through vertical compressive forces, enhancing structural stability and ease of maintenance for doors, windows, and partitions.
