Abstract:
The invention discloses an installation for the automatic assembly of the lower socket-bracket of opening leaves, i.e. the part of the fitting intended to be fixed to the lower corner of an opening leaf preferably of oscillating leaf type, in line with its vertical axis of rotation and transferring the weight of the leaf to a bearing embedded in the frame.The automatic installation is essentially formed of an installation 100 for equipping the socket, formed of workstations disposed about a rotary bed-plate and an installation 200 for the automatic assembly of the bracket on the socket formed of work stations disposed in a reference plane P--P. These two installations 100 and 200 are associated together via an automatic transfer mechanism 30.The invention makes possible the equipping and assembling of socket-brackets, completely automatically, all the operations following each other in a continuous flow.
Abstract:
A locking device such as a lock, espagnolette, espagnolette-lock and the like comprises a headpiece having an inner face onto which is inserted at least one casing comprising two parallel walls. The assembling between the headpiece and the casing or casings is obtained by means of riders in the form of profile lengths with a "U"-shaped cross-section comprised of two parallel wings and a transversal wall made integral with the inner face of said headpiece, both parallel wings of the riders forming means for seizing each of the parallel walls of the casing or casings.
Abstract:
A method and system for achieving compliance for a fire-rated door assembly. To comply with fire rated door assembly codes and compliance, all components, including hardware must be listed and labeled by a certification agency, such as Underwriters Laboratories (UL). The disclosure may include a hardware preparation filler solution which allows fire-rated doors to maintain fire rating and compliance when removing or modifying hardware, or converting between hardware types.
Abstract:
An installation for the continuous assembly of complementary component parts of a structural assembly constituting a door or window espagnolette bolt operating mechanism includes a main assembly circuit comprising at least one conveyor adapted to be advanced in steps and components part support plates fixed to this conveyor. Feed lines convey the component parts from storage units to the assembly circuit. Take-up devices transfer component parts from the feed lines to the conveyor. Component part assembly devices are located downstream of these take-up devices in the direction of movement of the conveyor. The installation further comprises devices for controlling the positioning and assembly of the component parts on the respective support plates.
Abstract:
A carrier is mounted for movement along a conveying path defined by a pair of conveying rails, one of which has a relatively short gap at a work station. A manipulator device is located at the work station and includes a relatively short conveying rail section which may selectively located to span the gap in the one rail or located in a position displaced from the rail. An article support frame is mounted upon the carrier for pivotal movement about an axis parallel to the rails between conveying position and a transfer position. A rail gripping device fixed to the support frame slides along the one rail to support the support frame in its conveying position during movement of the carrier along the rails. When the carrier arrives at the work station, the gripping device engages the short rail section of the manipulator which is then actuated to displace the rail section from the rail to pivot the support frame to its transfer position in which an article supported on the support frame may be processed by tooling located at the work station.
Abstract:
An assembly device for assembling various parts onto an elongate body. A transporter has a plurality of conveyors to deliver the elongate body to a plurality of stations for the attachment of various parts. After all the parts have been attached to the elongate body, the elongate body is removed from the assembly device.
Abstract:
A door garnish mounting device for a mounting a door garnish to a door of a vehicle includes a frame, door alignment arms extending from the frame, and a garnish applicator mounted to the frame. The door alignment arms having datum points configured to engage corresponding vehicle datum points of the vehicle proximate to a mounting location of the door garnish to the vehicle to align the frame with the door of the vehicle. The garnish applicator includes a pressing device configured to engage and press against the door garnish, a first actuator configured to press the pressing device against the door garnish, and a second actuator configured to move the pressing device along the door garnish.
Abstract:
A jig for aligning door hinges into a position at a predetermined mounting angle in an automatic system that automatically mounts door hinges to upper and lower seats on pillars of a vehicle body conveyed by a conveying unit. The jig may include a support frame, a first support part fixed to the support frame and supporting a hinge bracket of the door hinge, a pair of second support parts movably disposed at both sides of the first support part and respectively supporting both sides of a door bracket of the door hinge, and an actuating cylinder fixed to the support frame and connected with the second support parts.

Abstract:
An apparatus and method for automatically producing door panels in a single line in order to enable continuous production are provided. In the apparatus, a first uncoiler supplies the wound inner plate material. A first leveler regulates a flatness of the inner plate material. A press forms a pattern on the inner plate material. A marking device marks a cutting position on the inner plate material from the presser. A bend controller controls a bend of the inner plate material from the marking device. A second uncoiler supplies an outer plate material. A second leveler regulates a flatness of the outer plate material supplied from the second uncoiler. A roll forming device roll-forms both edges of the inner and outer plate materials. A heater preheats the inner and the outer plate materials. An injector injects insulated material between the inner and outer plate materials. A marking sensor senses the mark on the inner plate material and outputs a sensing signal. A cutter cuts the door panel at a fixed size according to the sensing signal. According to the apparatus, the inner and outer plate materials are processed while continuously passing through each device so that the door panel is completed.
