A door opening and closing device for a vehicle includes: a supporting member interposed between a vehicle body and a door, and supporting the door to be openable and closable. The supporting member includes first and second housings whose one end sides are linked to the vehicle body or the door via a linking unit, a spindle, a spindle nut, a coil spring biasing the first and second housings in a direction in which the first and second housings are separated from each other, a motor disposed in the first housing and rotating and driving the spindle, a case accommodating the motor therein, and a spline engaging unit engaging the first housing with the case or a metal member joined to the case not to be relatively movable in the rotational direction using a spline.
摘要:
A system for operating an electric door release having an actuator powered by an energy harvester. The actuator may be a piezoelectric actuator and the harvester may be a piezo harvester. The system may further include a power module, a rechargeable battery and a voltage boost circuit disposed between the energy harvester and the actuator. When a piezoelectric actuator is used, a recycle actuator discharge circuit may be disposed between the piezoelectric actuator and the power module battery for recapturing a portion of the energy delivered to the piezoelectric actuator. The piezoelectric harvester may include an energy input portion whereby the piezo electric harvester is excited by the energy input portion. The energy input portion may include a circular or linear driving gear for exciting the piezoelectric harvester or a stepper motor generator, driven by movement of a door. The harvester may also be a stepper motor/generator.
摘要:
A garage door/gate opening/closing mechanism is provided that utilizes electromechanical actuation to exert force on a button or buttons of a wall switch in order to actuate a garage door, where the switch actuates a garage door opener. The electromechanical actuator is actuated by means of an electrical signal produced by a radio frequency receiver or by means of a switch.

摘要:
A pinch-protection mechanism adapted for use with a closure panel and method for use of the same, said mechanism comprising at least one structural component defining an adjustable edge section manipulable between first and second configurations and an active material element coupled to the component, such that the change causes or enables the edge section to be manipulated to one of said first and second configurations, and manipulating the edge section between said first and second configurations eliminates, warns of, or mitigates a pinch condition.

In a sunroof system including a sunroof panel and a sunshade panel that is configured to avoid pinching a foreign object with the sunroof panel or sunshade panel, when a pinching by one of the panels is detected, the other panel is controlled according to the information on the pinching by the one panel and the condition of the other panel so as to prevent the pinching of the same foreign object by the other panel.
摘要:
Methods for varying seal force in active seal assemblies for doors employ active materials that can be controlled and remotely changed to alter the seal effectiveness, wherein the active materials actively change modulus properties such as stiffness, or a combination of modulus and shape in response to an activation signal. In this manner, in seal applications such as a vehicle door application, door opening and closing efforts can be minimized yet seal effectiveness can be maximized.

A control apparatus of an opening and closing body for a vehicle includes a fully closed state detection means detecting a fully closed state of an opening and closing body for the vehicle, an authenticating means authenticating a user of the vehicle, a detection means detecting a command for an opening operation when the authenticating means and the portable unit authenticate each other, a driving means conducting the opening operation when the fully closed state and the command for the open operation are detected, wherein the detection means is a vibration sensor mounted at one of the opening and a butted surface of the opening and closing body for the vehicle, and the vibration sensor detects that an object is pinched between the opening and the opening and closing body for the vehicle at a closing operation.
摘要:
A door system includes a structural member and a door that is movably mounted with respect to the structural member for movement between an open position and a closed position. A spring is mounted with respect to the structural member or the door and being sufficiently positioned to bias the door toward its open position when the door is in its closed position. Active material based actuators may selectively compress the spring prior to door closure to minimize door closing effort.
摘要:
An object detecting apparatus includes a piezoelectric sensor provided at an edge portion of an opening/closing body for emitting an output voltage which changes corresponding to an external force applied to the edge portion and a detection circuit for receiving the output voltage of the piezoelectric sensor and for judging an entrapment. The detection circuit includes a voltage-measuring circuit for measuring the output voltage of the piezoelectric sensor, a time-measuring circuit for measuring time, and a judging circuit configured to judge the entrapment. The judging circuit judges the entrapment corresponding to the output voltage of the piezoelectric sensor. The judging circuit calculates a changing value of the output voltage after the output voltage of the piezoelectric sensor reaches a predetermined first level. The judging circuit judges that the entrapment has not occurred in a situation where the changing value of the output voltage is larger than a predetermined value.
