    Abstract: A door operator for a reversibly operable door, such as a garage door includes a frame, a motor on the frame, a flexible drive member connected to the motor, and a carriage is mounted for movement along the frame. The carriage moves generally parallel to a portion of the frame and is attached to the door to open and close the door by movement of the carriage along the frame. The carriage can be selectively engaged and disengaged from the flexible drive member using an actuating member extending from the carriage. The carriage and the flexible drive member are engaged and disengaged upon successive motions of the actuating member in a direction substantially perpendicular to the direction of travel of the carriage. The same motion of the actuating member is used to both engage and disengage the mechanism, with successive actions performing the engagement and the disengagement, so that it is not necessary for the user to memorize a complicated engagement or disengagement procedure in order to perform the operation. The mechanism may include a lever bar that provides leverage to the engaging and disengaging action, so that the force applied by the user to the vertically extending actuating member is increased to overcome any resistance resulting from the load on the carriage. The carriage may be adapted for use with an enclosed rail or frame extension and may be comprised of multiple parts that may be disassembled, permitting the carriage to be removed from the frame at any location and eliminating the need for removal of the carriage only through the end of the frame.

    Abstract: A gate opening and closing apparatus for automatically moving a gate between opened and closed positions and where the gate can be unlatched in order to permit manual opening and closing movement and easily re-latched for automatic movement thereof. The apparatus comprises a powered drive unit. The gate is moveable and, preferably rotatable about a vertical hinge axis, between a pair of opposite end positions. A drive arm forms part of the opening and closing apparatus and is driven in an arcuate path between a pair of end positions which represent a gate open position and a gate closed position. A coupling arm is normally engaged with the drive arm and may be moveable therewith between the opposite end positions represented by movement of the drive arm. A latching arm is provided for latching the coupling arm to the drive arm. A connecting mechanism connects the coupling arm to the gate to translate the movement from the drive arm and the coupling arm to the gate. When the latching arm holds the coupling arm to the drive arm, the coupling arm will provide automatic movement of the gate. The latching arm is capable of being shifted away from the drive arm to preclude automatic movement of the gate and thereby permit a manual opening and closing of the gate.

    Abstract: A gate opener (14) is disclosed for attachment to a pre-existing gate (10) mounted for pivotal motion to a post (12). The gate opener includes a controller (30) for activation by an operator from a remote location, such as a vehicle, to transmit a signal of predetermined frequency to a receiver (32) mounted by the gate. The receiver (32) activates a relay to initiate operation of an electric motor (34) to open or close the gate. The rotating motion of the motor shaft is transferred through a set of pulleys (37, 39), a belt (43), gears (48, 54) and a chain (58) to a wheel (38) in contact with the ground. A gate opener (100) forms a second embodiment of the invention. The gate opener (100) is supported by a parallel arm hinge assembly (104) so that substantially the entire weight of the gate opener (100) is supported on the ground (40) through the ground wheel (132) to provide traction to the ground wheel. An open limiter switch (136) and a closed limiter switch (138) cooperate with adjustable contacts (140, 142) to deactivate the motor upon movement of the gate (10) into the opened or closed positions to permit the motor (116) and ground wheel (132) to continue rotation until the gate is either opened or closed.

    Abstract: A device for controlling the movement of the two doors is housed in a tile-shaped elongate support which is disposed above the doorway and is pivoted about a horizontal axis extending longitudinally of the roof of the car. The tile-shaped support carries centrally an electric motor for rotating two screws which are situated on respective sides of the motor and are threaded in opposite directions. A nut is mounted on each screw to run longitudinally, and has a forked part which engages a draw-bolt carried by the respective door of the doorway. When the tile-shaped support is pivoted upwardly by hand from outside the car, each fork is disengaged from its respective bolt to allow the emergency opening of the doors.

    Abstract: An apparatus for shifting a gate from a closed position to an opened position and from the open position to the closed position with respect to an access opening. The apparatus comprises a housing with a motor in the housing, as for example, an electric motor. A drive shaft extends outwardly from the housing and is operable by the motor by means of a drive mechanism. A drive arm is connected to the outer end of the drive shaft, outwardly of the housing, and is rotatable thereby. The drive arm is designed to permit a lever arm or a lever arm assembly to be coupled thereto and which is also capable of being coupled to a gate for moving the same between the opened and closed positions. Further, the apparatus comprises a shaft coupling mechanism operatively associated with the drive arm for coupling the drive arm to the drive shaft so that the drive arm is rotatable with the drive shaft when the motor is operated. In addition, a disconnect mechanism, preferably a manually operable disconnect mechanism, is associated with the drive arm, and is operatively connected to the coupling mechanism for disengaging the drive shaft from the drive arm. This permits the drive arm to rotate independently of the drive shaft in emergency situations, as for example, in cases of power failure where the motor cannot be operated. The drive mechanism is designed with a worm and worm gear construction so that one cannot unauthorizedly attempt to rotate the drive arm without completing disengaging the drive arm from the drive shaft.

    Abstract: A window in a motor vehicle is mounted for pivotal movement about a pivot element. An electric motor drives a gear unit whose output shaft is coupled with the pivot in such a manner that pressure manually exerted upon the window disconnects the output shaft from the pivot so that the window can be manually moved in the event this is desirable or necessary because of malfunction of the motor or the gear unit.
