Abstract:
The invention relates to an emergency opening device for a folding hinged door (1) or a folding hinged gate using an electric motor drive mechanism with an electromagnetic engaging and disengaging clutch to open and close the wings (2, 2', 3, 3'). The invention is characterized in that an emergency opening device, which is assigned to the door, comprises an elastic traction or pressure mechanism (12, 15, 19, 22) which can be prestressed when closing the door and which engages in the driving axle (6, 6') of the outer wing (2, 2') or in the region of the main closing edge (7, 7') of the inner wing (3, 3').
Abstract:
Afin d'éviter l'utilisation de systèmes de fermeture complexes, encombrants, coûteux et produisant un freinage insuffisant de la course de fermeture de portes ou fenêtres, un dispositif de rappel 910) comprend un tambour (18), un assemblage moteur (22) à ressort hélicoïdal pour l'entraînement du tambour, un frein centrifuge (24) pour la commande de l'assemblage moteur et du tambour afin d'éliminer le claquement du panneau lors de la fermeture, et un assemblage (26) de transmission de train d'engrenage reliant l'assemblage moteur et le frein centrifuge. Dans un mode de réalisation, le tambour est une bobine autour de laquelle s'enroule un câble (230) reliant le panneau au dispositif de rappel. Dans une variante, le tambour possède un rebord (131) en prise par friction avec un cadre (12a) supportant la fermeture. Le frein centrifuge est réglable de manière à s'adapter à des fermetures de dimensions différentes et à une vaste gamme de conditions de friction.
Abstract:
La porte coulissante (1) comprend une série de panneaux rectangulaires (2) articulés les uns par rapport aux autres, les bords opposés des panneaux (2) étant guidés par des glissières (5) s'étendant de chaque côté de l'ouverture (8) et vers le côté intérieur de cette dernière. Cette porte (1 ) comprend en outre un dispositif (42) pour équilibrer le poids de la porte et comportant au moins un ressort hélicoïdal (49) relié à la porte. Ce ressort (49) est sollicité en compression par le poids de la porte lors de la fermeture de celle-ci et fonctionne en détente lors de l'ouverture de cette porte, la liaison mécanique (30) entre la porte et le ressort comportant un moufle fixe (43) coopérant avec un moufle mobile (44) définissant avec ce dernier un palan, ce moufle mobile étant rendu solidaire du ressort (49) au moyen d'unetige (50). Application notamment aux portes de garage.
Abstract:
A window balance assembly may include a carrier, a spring element, and a mounting bracket. The spring element may include first and second portions. The first portion may be coupled to the carrier. The mounting bracket may engage the second portion of the spring element and may selectively engage the carrier. The mounting bracket may include a first mounting surface disposed at a non-perpendicular angle relative to an exterior surface of carrier when the window balance assembly is in an uninstalled configuration. The first mounting surface may be substantially parallel to the exterior surface of the carrier when the window balance assembly is in an installed configuration and the mounting bracket is disengaged from the carrier.
Abstract:
A counterbalance mechanism includes a first attachment strap that is fixedly attached to a body structure. An intermediate link is rotatably attached to the first attachment strap and rotatable about a winding axis relative to the first attachment strap. A first end of a second attachment strap is rotatably attached to a moveable panel. A second end of the second attachment strap is rotatably attached to the intermediate link, with the second attachment strap and the intermediate link rotatable relative to each other about a link axis. A spiral spring interconnects the first attachment strap and the intermediate link. The spiral spring biases the intermediate link about the winding axis to rotate the intermediate link and the second attachment strap relative to each other about the link axis, in a scissor-like motion, to rotate the panel relative to the body structure.

Abstract:
Disclosed is a self-closing sliding door assembly operable to allow manual opening and controlled automatic closing of a sliding door. The door assembly comprises storage spools for storing biasing members biased in a wound position around the storage spools. The door assembly further comprises a main spool for winding a cable and the biasing members. When the door is moved towards an open position, the cable is unwound from the main spool, causing the spool to rotate in a first direction. When the main spool is rotated in the first direction, the biasing members are wound onto the main spool and store energy operable to generate a force to cause the main spool to rotate in a second direction. When the door is released, the energy stored in the biasing members rotates the main spool in the second direction, thereby winding the door cable and providing a sufficient force to move the door towards the closed position.
Abstract:
A support mechanism supports a hood in a raised position with respect to a vehicle to which the hood is pivotally coupled. The mechanism includes two pairs of arm members which are pivotally coupled to each other by a central pivot pin, and which are coupled between the vehicle and the vehicle hood. A flat coil spring is coiled around the central pivot pin and is attached to the arm members. The spring is biased to pivot one pair of arms and in turn the hood upwardly.
