    摘要: A drive system for raising and lowering a window covering using a continuous cord loop that includes a motor with an associated encoder, device controller for the motor, a speed sensor, and proportional-integral-derivative (PID) layer. The device controller stores or receives a desired motor speed and generates a speed command signal to the motor. A closed-loop system applies a PID speed control algorithm to an error representing a difference between actual motor speed and desired motor speed. The PID layer uses the error to calculate a new output via PID control terms to automatically correct signals to the motor to achieve desired motor speed. A hembar alignment function automates positional control of a plurality of motor drive systems to synchronize raising or lowering of window covering shades with the shades in positional alignment. A system controller includes a time-counter indexed to a position scale to synchronize hembar alignment positional commands.

    摘要: A low-deflection roller tube of a motorized roller shade may include a first tube and a second tube that is attached to the first tube. The first tube may be configured to operably couple to the motor drive unit of the roller shade. The second tube may comprise a plurality of carbon fiber layers additively constructed on the first tube, and may be fabricated such that first and second longitudinal portions of the roller tube exhibit different material stiffness characteristics from each other. The first and second portions of the roller tube may be made of carbon fiber material having different tensile moduli. Layers of carbon fiber material in the first portion may be staggered with layers of carbon fiber material in the second portion at an interface between the first and second portions.

    摘要: Disclosures relate to a sensor system and arrangements having different sized removable spacers. The spacers may be mixed and matched as needed or desired to compensate for misalignment conditions. Further, different spacer combinations and adjustments may be guided by a security management computing device. Variations in configurations of mounting surfaces, such as door and window assemblies, may be accommodated. Alignment of a transmitter or a receiving device, e.g., a magnetic device, with respect to a transmitter or receiving device despite misalignment of the components due to, for example, uneven surfaces of a door or a window, or a respective frame may be achieved.

    摘要: The present disclosure provides a roof shutter: including a window frame, a driving device and a louver blade component. One louver blade component includes at least two brackets drivingly connected to one driving device, and a plurality of louver blades arranged between two brackets. One side of each louver blade is rotationally connected to one bracket, and other side is rotationally connected to the window frame, in resulting the louver blades directly swing along an axis which is one side of the louver blade connected to the window frame, and no need to reserve a gap for the louver blades to swing. It prevents rainwater from flowing into the room from the gap.

    摘要: A configurable door system includes a first and second door panel, an astragal, and a frame. The frame defines a first axis and is configured to pivotally support the door panels in a first configuration of the door system and in a second configuration of the door system. The first door panel is disposed to one side of the second door panel along the first axis within the frame in both the first and second configurations. The door system, in the first configuration, includes the astragal fixed to the first door panel and releasably attaches the first door panel to the frame, and the second door panel is releasably secured to the astragal. The door system, in the second configuration, includes the astragal fixed to the second door panel and releasably attaches the second door panel to the frame, and the first door panel is releasably secured to the astragal.

    摘要: A motor head cover for a roller shade that has an electric motor releasably secured to an end bracket by an insert plate. The motor head cover has a C-shaped body having a mouth opening and an outer circumferential surface. The outer circumferential surface has an inner body surface, an outer body surface, an outer, inwardly directed, side surface, and an inner, inwardly directed, side surface. Each of the side surfaces extend inwardly from the circumferential surface at approximately 90 degrees to collectively form a raceway with the inner body surface. The inner, inwardly directed, side surface is configured to be engaged about a circumferential lip on the insert plate to assist in releasably securing the motor head cover thereto. The inner, inwardly directed side surface, has a series of spaced apart notches that assist in a non-destructive flexure of the motor head cover when securing about the insert plate.
