Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a door actuation device for the actuation of a door of a refrigerator/freezer cabinet having a cabinet body at which at least one door is swivelably arranged. According to the invention, an automatic drive is provided which forms an operative connection between the cabinet body and the door and by which a movement of the door between a closed position and an open position can be carried out.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to an emergency release for a garage door drive with a sliding latch, wherein the sliding latch is linearly movable by turning a rotary knob.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention provide a control system for a garage door. The control system can include a motor, a pulley, a synchronous drive member, a carriage, and an operator. The pulley can be coupled to and driven by the motor. The synchronous drive member can be coupled to the pulley and driven by the pulley. The carriage can be coupled to the synchronous drive member and to a bottom edge of a garage door. The operator can be coupled to the motor and can control the motor. The operator can be mounted vertically adjacent to the garage door when the garage door is in a closed position.
Abstract:
An opening and closing control apparatus includes an automatic sliding door controller that controls a drive of an opening and closing driving mechanism. The automatic sliding door controller determines whether a request is a manual operating request or an automatic operating request on the basis of a signal from a press switch that is switched on by a press-on operation. In the case of the automatic operating request, the automatic sliding door controller is configured so that an automatic opening and closing determination process determines whether a request is an opening operating request or a closing operating request based on the detection of door state detection section, and an opening and closing process is then executed by operating the opening and closing driving mechanism based on the determination.
Abstract:
An actuating mechanism for moving a vehicle body panel, such as tailgate, between an open and closed position includes a motor having a drive cable coupled to a rod and cylinder assembly to drive the tailgate between the open and closed positions. A mechanical control including a spring and pulley assembly is coupled to the drive cable to allow acceleration during opening or closing movement of the vehicle panel in response to a user input force.
Abstract:
An overhead door bracket for attachment of the main arm of an overhead door opener to a metal overhead door for the purpose of opening and closing the door. The inventive bracket has a relatively wide mounting plate which spans the distance between the portions of the sheet metal doors having existing reinforcing backing strips for mounting of the hinges connecting the metal panels of the door. The inventive bracket has conventional connecting tabs spaced and extending outward to receive the lower end of the main arm of an opening system. The tabs have pin receiver bores for pivotally securing the main arm to the bracket by means of a pin. The bracket mounting plate has three spaced rows of mounting holes for mounting the bracket to the upper panel of a hinged door panel, the mounting holes being proximate the respective ends of the bracket.
Abstract:
A motorized operator for opening and closing a window sash relative to a window frame via an arm mechanism connected to the window frame and being adapted to be installed in a cavity defined in the window frame. The operator comprises a motor, a drive axle rotated by the motor, and first and second gears in meshed engagement. The first gear is mounted on the drive axle, while the second gear is mounted to the arm mechanism such that motorized rotation of the first gear rotatably drives the second gear thereby causing the arm mechanism to pivot for opening and closing the window sash. A manual operator is adapted to disengage the first and second gears from one another while becoming engaged to the second gear for manually rotating the second gear and so manually operate the arm mechanism. The manual operator comprises a handle and a manual actuator which includes a sprocket. The manual actuator is engageable on the drive axle for selectively displacing the first gear along the drive axle and cause the latter to disengage from the second gear while the sprocket of the manual actuator becomes engaged to the second gear, whereby a rotation of the manual actuator by way of the handle causes rotation of the sprocket and of the second gear and thus also a pivot of the arm mechanism.
Abstract:
A system for decoupling a barrier from a barrier movement apparatus for the manual operation of the barrier. Advantageously, the decoupling is performed in response to a wireless signal and may be done only when the barrier is determined to be in a safe position.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an emergency release device (4) for a building closure operator (2) for decoupling a motorized building closure from a motor operator assembly (6, 9) under emergency conditions. To diminish the risk of injury by free-fall of a decoupled building closure wing by a simple and cost-effective design the invention proposes providing a safety or securing means (24) which safeguards or secures the emergency release device (4) against unintentional or unauthorized actuation.
Abstract:
An actuator for gates, doors and the like, with at least one wing. The actuating motor (14) and the associated motor reduction unit (15) are housed inside as half-arm (2) which turns on a fixed support (9) in an oscillating way about a substantially vertical swinging axis (10). Advantageously, the electric motor (14) operates a maneuvering worm screw (12) which is carried by said half-arm (2) and engages a corresponding helical gear (13) coaxial with the swinging axis (10) and is fastened to the fixed support of the half-arm (2) by a torque-limiting device which prevents excessive stresses on the actuator as a result of external forces and also makes it possible to release the helical gear for manual emergency actuation of the wing.
