Abstract: A battery operated shade is provided adapted to adjustably cover a structural opening. The shade generally comprises a shade material extending from a top end to a bottom end and a motor drive unit operably connected to the top end of the shade material and adapted to raise and lower the shade material between an upper limit and a lower limit to adjustably cover and uncover the structural opening. The shade also comprises a shade housing adapted to at least partially conceal the motor drive unit, wherein the shade housing defines a bottom opening at a bottom of the shade housing from which the shade material exits the shade housing. The shade further comprises a battery compartment adapted to removably retain batteries for providing power to the motor drive unit. The battery compartment is attached to the shade housing proximate to the bottom opening below the motor drive unit. The battery compartment is adapted to swivel from a first position where the battery compartment is at least partially concealed by the shade housing, through the bottom opening, and to a second position where the battery compartment is positioned out of the shade housing.

Abstract: A drapery track assembly is disclosed that performs an automatic and dynamic torque calibration to enable automatic detection of pulling of the drape as well as obstacles in order to minimize damage to the drapery track assembly and users. The drapery track assembly comprises a track, a drape attached to the track, a motor configured for moving the drape along the track, a sensor configured for sensing a position of the drape along the track, a current sensing circuit configured for detecting current levels, and a controller configured for controlling the motor and comprising at least one memory. The controller is configured for determining and storing a multi-point overcurrent threshold (OCTH) profile in each direction of travel comprising a plurality of overcurrent threshold (OCTH) values for each segment of travel along the track. The controller uses these multi-point overcurrent threshold (OCTH) profiles during normal operation to detect an overcurrent event and perform an overcurrent operation when a measured current level within a travel segment exceeds the overcurrent threshold (OCTH) value of that travel segment.

Abstract: A motorized roller shade that detects obstacles in its travel that create excess torque by sensing the current draw from a motor and method by which the motor can calibrate itself to detect excess torque. During the roller shade's travel, it will record the instantaneous torque being generated at various points. For example, it will store the greatest value in the shade motor's non-volatile memory as the normal operating torque.
