    Abstract: A brake device for a drivable part, in particular for use for a vehicle flap, in particular in an automobile, includes a drivable load device (11) which can be radially brought into contact with a disc (90) of the drivable part, with a first holding position and a second release position. At least one brake element rests against the periphery (92) of the disc (90) in a frictional manner in the holding position and secures the disc (90) from rotating using a specifiable force. In the release position, the at least one brake element is arranged at a distance from the periphery of the disc (90) and allows a free run of the disc (90), and the load device (11) can be adjusted between the holding position and the release position, preferably by a motor (12). A brake device or a rotating drive with which a drivable part of the drive is secured against a displacement on the basis of the mass of the component to be displaced even when the motor is not being provided with power or is deactivated is achieved in that the first holding position and the second release position are each designed as a metastable holding position.

    Abstract: An indexing multi-panel door includes a leading door panel supported on a first track and moveable between open and closed positions, a trailing door panel supported on a second track and moveable between open and closed positions, a motion control track mounted to one of the door panels, a follower mounted to the other one of the door panels, the follower including a first distal end received within the motion control track, the motion control track including features to frictionally engage the first distal end, wherein when the leading door is moved between the open and closed positions, engagement between the first distal end and the features moves the trailing door panel along with the leading door panel, and allows slippage, wherein the leading and trailing door panels move relative to one another as the leading and trailing door panels are moved between the open and closed positions.

    Abstract: Roller assemblies for hanging panels are disclosed herein. Roller assemblies according to the present disclosure are configured to support a hanging panel and include an elongate rail configured to be mounted on a surface. The roller assembly includes a trolley assembly, which includes a bearing assembly configured to translate the trolley assembly along the elongate rail and a bracket coupled to the bearing assembly and configured to be coupled to the hanging panel. The elongate rail includes a rail adjustment system configured to facilitate adjusting a position and/or an orientation of the elongate rail with respect to the surface. The rail adjustment system is concealed in a rail-assembled configuration, and includes at least two spaced-apart rail adjustment mechanisms.
