Abstract: Hardware that improves the safety of operating sectional doors that use torsional coil springs to facilitate door movement. A rotor assembly with centrifugally activated throw-out latches is affixed to the rotating shaft that bears the torsional coil springs. When a spring breaks, the shaft rotates rapidly as cables supporting the door unwind. Rapid rotation causes centrifugal force to bias the latches to an outer position in which they strike a trigger plate, allowing a pawl to move into a position in which the pawl blocks further rotation of the rotor, thus halting the descent of the sectional door. Raising the sectional door manually moves the latches, trigger plate, and pawl to their original position, disengaging the present invention and permitting the door to be lowered slowly without danger of injury.

Abstract translation: 硬件提高了使用扭转螺旋弹簧来操作门的运行的门的安全性，以便于门的移动。 具有离心激活的抛出闩锁的转子组件固定到承载扭转螺旋弹簧的旋转轴上。 当弹簧断裂时，轴作为支撑门的电缆展开而迅速旋转。 快速旋转使得离心力将闩锁偏压到外部位置，在该位置上它们撞击触发板，允许棘爪移动到棘爪阻止转子进一步旋转的位置，从而停止分段门的下降。 抬起分段门手动地将闩锁，触发板和棘爪移动到其原始位置，使本发明脱离，并允许门缓慢地降低而没有受伤的危险。

Abstract: A shield apparatus and method for guarding the gap between door sections of a sectional door to inhibit the insertion of fingers into the gap as the sectional door traverses between the elevated open position to the lowered, closed position. The shield apparatus is configured as an outer shield and an inner shield, both of which are fabricated from a resilient sheet material. The outer shield is formed into an L-shaped cross section along its length with the foot portion of the L shape being mounted to the upper edge of the lower door section so that the leg portion of the L shape extends upwardly across the gap between the lower door section and the upper door section. A water diversion channel is formed into the foot to divert water to the ends of the sectional door to preclude the water from dripping from the sectional door as it is raised to the open, overhead position. A pair of double-face tapes are used to secure the shield apparatus to the top edge of the lower door section. The inner shield is configured as a strip of resilient material such as plastic that is mounted to the lower edge of the inner face of the upper door section so that it extends downwardly across the gap between these two door sections. The resiliency of the inner shield causes the inner shield to slidingly cooperate with the inner face of the upper edge of the lower door section as the sectional door closes.

Abstract: Hardware that improves safety and minimizes the risk involved in installing, maintaining, and operating sectional doors that use springs to facilitate door movement. A lock-on side bearing bracket bears up a spring on a garage door. This side-bearing bracket includes a hook and a perpendicular tab to prevent the spring from dangerously releasing its energy when parts supporting the spring are removed or fail. A lock-on bottom roller bracket having a bottom bearing plate and a safety hook similarly prevents a potential release of energy when the garage door lift cable is tensed. A curled portion at the bottom of the lift cable prevents the cable from coming off the drum. A safety latch with a latch bar and a latch cover acts as a lock for the garage door.

Abstract: A sectional door (2) is disclosed that includes a safety system. The safety system includes a shield apparatus (12), an improved support track (6), reverse angle track shields (80), and hemmed roller track edges (38) to prevent injury or harm to body parts errantly placed within or around the support track (6) during the opening or closing of the sectional door (2). The sectional door (2) includes a plurality of door sections (8) hingedly joined in an edge-to-edge relationship to form the completed sectional door (2). The sectional door (2) further includes support rollers (10) attached to the door sections (8), and a pair of support tracks (6), in which the support rollers (10) are confined. Each support roller (10) further includes a circular or rectangular roller shield (12) that is mounted to the axle (26) of the support roller (10) outside of the support track (6) where it is proximate the support track (6) in such a manner as to limit or prevent any fingers from engaging within the support track (6) with the support roller (10). The dimensions of the protective shield (12) are larger than the support rollers (10) so as to provide transport guidance within the support track (6) where track sections meet. The reverse angle track shields (80) are constructed of a solid metal piece so as to prevent objects from passing between the support track (6) and a mounting surface, with the outside edge being folded into a single hem (138) or covered with a protective material (140). The adjacent edge of the support track (6) is formed into a folded hem (38), either outwardly or inwardly, to prevent fingers from being cut.

Abstract: This invention relates to a novel anchor cone and winding cone apparatus and method for mounting a coil torsion spring to an overhead door. Indicia are provided on the cones to assure proper orientation of the cones to the spring and the cone/spring assembly to the overhead door. The winding cone includes arrow indicia to clearly indicate the direction of rotation for the winding cone to increase tension on the coil torsion spring. A groove break is provided in each cone to substantially reduce chafing and wear of the corresponding coil of the coil torsion spring.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel torsion spring apparatus and method wherein anchor loops are formed in the end coil of the torsion spring to permit anchoring the spring directly to the appropriate mounting bracket. The provision of anchor loops in the end coil of the torsion spring effectively eliminates the requirement for conventional mounting inserts for the torsion spring and simultaneously increases the effective length of the torsion spring or, alternatively, permits the torsion spring to be shortened by the number of coils that would be otherwise rendered ineffective by the presence of a prior art insert.
