Abstract:
A transmission assembly (138) for a powered sliding door system (22) for an automotive vehicle (24). The transmission assembly (138) includes a rotatably input member (152), a stationary hub (198), and a planetary gearset (210) disposed within the hub (198) and operatively cooperating with the input member (152). The transmission assembly (138) also includes an electromagnetic brake (268) disposed within the hub (198) and operatively cooperating with the planetary gearset (210) to lock and unlock a gear of the planetary gearset (210). The transmission assembly (138) further includes a rotatable output member (144) operatively cooperating with the planetary gearset (210).
Abstract:
A drive mechanism assembly (14) for enabling driving and manual movement of a sliding side door (12). The assembly (14) has a track assembly (16) mounted to a vehicle body (10) at a predetermined height and a drive mechanism (18) mounted to the sliding side door (12) so as to be proximate to a door latching mechanism (19). The drive mechanism (18) has an input drive motor (22) driving an output gear assembly (24) engaging the track assembly (16) and a transmission gear assembly (23) with a sliding gear (50) which selectively couples the input drive motor (22) and an input gear assembly (23) to the output gear assembly (24) between an engaged position for driving movement or disengaged position for manual movement of the sliding side door (12). In this way, the slide ride door (12) may be moved manually between open and closed positions without having to overcome the effort required of rotating the drive motor (22).
Abstract:
The invention relates to an emergency opening device for a preferably automatic two-panel sliding door having an energy storage element embodied by a rubber belt (6). Said rubber belt (6) is on one side irremovably fixed in a support (9) and on the other side removably fixed to a holding device (7) by means of a slide (8). During normal operation of the sliding door the pretensed rubber belt (6) has no effect. The holding device (7) releases the slide (8) with the rubber belt only in an emergency, such as a fire or power failure. The slide (8) interacts with the pulley carriages (5b) of the sliding door and by means of the energy stored in the rubber belt (6) moves the sliding panels (1a, 1b) into the fully opened position. To prevent a sudden, severe impact of the slide (8) against the pulley carriage (5b) the slide (8) comprises a friction brake (82, 83, 84). This brake (82, 83, 84) is released by a control device (56) only after the slide has contacted the pulley carriage (5b) so that the entire energy stored in the rubber belt (6) is then able to act upon the pulley carriage (5b). When the emergency is over the rubber belt (6) is tensed during the first closure of the sliding door by the movement of the pulley carriage (5b) and again fixed to the holding device (7).
Abstract:
A sliding door system (10) employs an electric power link (12). The electric link (12) includes a ribbon conductor (70) which is enclosed in a protective chain-like guard (80) to provide electrical communication between the sliding door (14, 16) and the door header (18). Electrical modules such as electromagnetic locks (30), switches and sensors (40, 60) are mounted directly on the sliding door (14, 16). Safety sensors are mounted at the leading (22, 26) and trailing (24, 28) edges of the sliding door panels (14, 16) to sense whether an obstacle or traffic has cleared.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a door, in particular a double-wing door, whose door-wings execute, during closing and opening, a combined translational and rotational motion about a vertical axis. The door is fitted with detachable means which enable the door to be used on emergency-exit and escape routes, i.e. when a manual force is applied from the inside on the door-wings, they are disconnected from the drive unit and can easily be opened by hand. So that the door does not remain open, however, the design includes switches or sensors which report any manual opening of the door to the control electronics which in turn sets the drive in operation in order to connect the door-wings automatically with the drive unit again.
Abstract:
A door hold-open device which unlatches a held door based upon the occurrence of an unlatch condition includes a door latching mechanism (30) and a signal processing circuit that provides power to the latching mechanism. The device conserves energy providing by withholding power from the signal processing circuit until an unlatch condition occurs. The device further prevents a door from being latched in an open position if (a) the power to the system falls below a predetermined threshold, or (b) a battery access member (21) is moved to permit disconnection of a battery (100).
Abstract:
Door operator for a door (12) slidingly supported relative to an opening (19) in panel (20) of vehicle body (10). The door is supported adjacent its forward end on forward guide member (24) and adjacent its rear end on rear guide member (31) guiding the door through (i) an initial closing movement generally parallel to the panel, (ii) a final closing movement generally parallel to the panel, (iii) a portion of its final closing movement generally toward the plane of the opening, and (iv) a portion of its initial opening movement generally away from the plane of the opening. The operator including a first cable member (42) coupled to the rear end of the door and a second cable member (41) coupled to the forward end of the door. The operator includes striker plate (106) on the vehicle body having a pin (105) engageable by latch bolt member (60).
