Abstract:
A locking device for a sliding door or a swing and sliding door having a door leaf, the lock device comprising a drive train including at least one motor, a drive transmission and a drive spindle. The locking device also comprises a locking transmission and a torque dividing arrangement.
Abstract:
A drive system for a door having a door leaf guided laterally in guide rails. A carriage, which is connected to the upper edge of the door leaf in an articulated manner, is arranged to be guided along one of the guide rails. Conductive tracks running along the guide rail are provided for supplying power to a motor driving the carriage. The conductive tracks can optionally be contacted at the front or back ends thereof.
Abstract:
A door closer with dynamically adjustable latch region parameters is disclosed. Embodiments of the present invention include a door closer with a control unit to intelligently control a valve to vary the operating characteristics of the door closer as needed. The control unit can repeatedly determine whether a door has reached jamb upon closing. A setting or settings for the latch region of the door can be adjusted when the door does not reach jamb. These adjustments are such that the likelihood of the door reaching jamb upon closing is increased. Jamb successes can also be monitored, so that once there have been enough successful closes, settings can be adjusted to decrease the force on the door so that the latch region parameters are constantly adjusted for changing conditions to achieve closing success with the minimum closing force necessary.
Abstract:
A system and portable device are provided for opening and closing sliding doors associated with conventional sliding doors as used in residences and businesses. The portable sliding door device attaches to a sliding door via a bracket, and moves along the same track used by the sliding door. The sliding door device can be initiated to move the sliding door to the open position through remote control, voice-activation, and proximity transmitters. The sliding door device can communicate with wireless routers and be remotely controlled and monitored by computers, netbooks and cell phones. The sliding door device has safety features, including cameras and speakers to ward off attempted break-ins.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for opening a passenger door (1) of an aircraft in case of emergency, which is fastened so it is manually pivotable on the fuselage (3) of the aircraft via a hinge and/or support arm configuration (2), an auxiliary-energy-operated emergency opening drive (4) being provided between the fuselage (3) and the passenger door (1), which automatically opens the passenger door (1) in accordance with an emergency control unit (5), the auxiliary energy for the emergency opening drive (4) being pyrotechnic energy, whose gas expanding inside an expansion chamber (6) after triggering by the emergency control unit (5) impinges the emergency opening drive (4) with pressure medium to open the passenger door (1), wherein said emergency opening drive (4) generates a rotational movement.
Abstract:
A window regulator device includes a rail having at least one projecting lug, a plate having at least one lug, a drive cable, and a cable drum placed in a recess of the plate. The plate is fixed to the rail by a joint action of a tensioned drive cable and the mutual imbrication of the lugs of the plate and the rail. The assembly of the window regulator device is simplified, and the drum can be fixed independently of the mounting and removal of an actuation motor.
Abstract:
Motorized split-hinge device for a very heavy double door, designed to be motorized and consisting of at least one flap or panel (1) that is mounted to pivot, around an essentially vertical axis of rotation, on a frame (2), comprising a stationary split-hinge part (3) that is integral with said frame (2) and a movable split-hinge part (4) that is integral with said flap (1) and mounted in rotation relative to said stationary split-hinge part (3) around a pivoting shaft.The movable split-hinge part (4) comprises a drive mechanism that is driven by a motor unit (7) that is able to drive said movable split-hinge part (4) in rotation around its pivoting shaft and starting said flap (1) moving by pivoting when opening or closing, whereby said motor unit (7), on the one hand, is mounted in a removable manner on said drive mechanism and on a stationary part (3) of said door, and, on the other hand, is kept in drive position of said mechanism with anti-rotational locking, optionally with radial play, relative to said flap (1).
Abstract:
An electric motor driven barrier operator includes spaced apart frame plates for supporting the motor, an intermediate drive shaft and an operator final output shaft. The motor output shaft, intermediate shaft and final output shaft are mounted on bearings at fixed centers on the frame plates and the motor and intermediate shaft are interconnected by a stretchable flexible drive belt reeved over respective drive pulleys mounted on the motor output shaft and the intermediate shaft. The drive belt may be mounted on the pulleys and replaced without adjusting the position of the motor output shaft, the intermediate shaft or the operator output shaft.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a circuit for controlling a number of DC motors (M1, M2) capable of being controlled independently of one another, comprising, for each motor (M1, M2), an H-bridge (1A, 1B) made up of a first branch (3) and of a second branch (5), which bridge is intended for the control of the associated motor. According to the invention, the said second branches (5) of the H-bridges (1A, 1B) are produced in the form of two switches (7, 9) forming a branch common to all the H-bridges and rated to accept a current equivalent to the sum of the drive currents so that the said motors (M1, M2) can be controlled simultaneously and independently by applying associated control signals to the first branches (3).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a system intended to enable the translational movement of sliding doors and to actuate the blocking of same, whereby blocking means (14) can be actuated in a sequential and synchronised manner at the end of the translational movement of the doors. The invention includes a sliding door (1) actuated by a drive pulley (12) in turn actuated by a power source (2) operationally connected to an input shaft (5) of a planetary gear train (4) including a planet carrier (10) configured to activate the means (14) for blocking the door (1) when the door is in the closed position, such that the activation of said blocking means (14) can be prevented when the door (1) is not in the closed position
