The door eccentric assembly (100) is connected with a bogie (202) of a bogie assembly (200) and the bogie assembly (200) is configured to connect with a door leaf (302) through the eccentric hole (103) positioned at an offset from the central axis of the door eccentric (102).
Abstract:
Electromechanical lock utilizing magnetic field forces. An actuator is moved (1202) from a locked position (260) to an open position (400) by electric power. In the locked position (260), a permanent magnet arrangement directs (1204) a near magnetic field to block an access control mechanism to rotate, and simultaneously the permanent magnet arrangement attenuates (1206) the near magnetic field towards a far magnetic break-in field originating from outside of the electromechanical lock. In the open position (400), the permanent magnet arrangement directs (1208) a reversed near magnetic field to release the access control mechanism to rotate, and simultaneously the permanent magnet arrangement attenuates (1210) the reversed near magnetic field towards the far magnetic break-in field.
Abstract:
A hinge structure includes: a supporting sheet having an unfolded, flattened state and a folded state; at least one first hinge connected to the supporting sheet, the at least one first hinge being configured to drive the supporting sheet to switch between the unfolded, flattened state and the folded state; at least one flattening support including a first support, a second support, and a flattening bracket, the flattening bracket being connected to the first support and the second support, the flattening bracket being connected to the supporting sheet. When the supporting sheet is in the unfolded, flattened state, the first support and the second support interact with each other and generate a force parallel to a plane where the supporting sheet is located, to maintain the supporting sheet in the unfolded, flattened state.
Abstract:
An illumination system is provided for an access door may include an elongated illumination housing configured to be coupled to at least one of an upstanding jamb and a corresponding jamb casing extending along the one side of the access door, an elongated light transmissive cover coupled to the illumination housing, an elongated light pipe received within the illumination housing, an illumination source housing operatively coupled to one end of the light pipe, an illumination source disposed within the illumination source housing and configured to produce and transmit visible light into the light pipe so as to be visible through the light transmissive cover, a source of electrical power, and a control unit configured to selectively apply electrical power from the source of electrical power to the illumination source to produce the visible light.
Abstract:
An emergency door closing device that can be installed upon existing doors and hinges to automatically close doors in the response to smoke and fire. The improvements incorporated therein include a hinge cam pivot member that attaches to an existing hinge member of a door and produces a moment force about the existing hinge member allowing a reduced force necessary to pivot the door into a closed position. Further, a novel spring, cam, and lever system is incorporated to activate the moment force to close the door.
Abstract:
A door component has a controllable damping device containing a magnetorheological fluid as a working fluid. Two connection units can move relative to one another. One of the two connection units can be connected to a support structure and the other of the two connection units can be connected to a moveable door unit of a vehicle in order to damp a movement of the door unit between a closed position and an open position under control of a control device. The damping device has an electrically adjustable magnetorheological damping valve which is current-less in its adjusted state. A damping property of the damping device is continuously adjusted as needed via an electrical adjustment of the damping valve.
Abstract:
An electromechanical strut and method of moving a closure member of a vehicle between an open position and a closed position is provided. The electromechanical strut includes a power drive unit including a motor, a leadscrew, a planetary gearset operably connecting the motor to the leadscrew, and an electromechanical brake assembly. The electromechanical strut further includes a telescoping unit including an extensible tube and a drive nut for converting rotary motion of the leadscrew into linear motion of the telescoping unit. The electromechanical brake assembly is selectively moveable between an engaged state, wherein the leadscrew is prevented from rotating to prevent relative axial movement between the power drive unit and the telescoping unit, and a disengaged state, wherein the leadscrew is permitted to rotate to allow relative axial movement between the power drive unit and the telescoping unit.
Abstract:
Movable partition systems include an elongated, fixed drive member extending along a track, a partition that is automatically and manually movable along the track, and a motor carried by the movable partition configured to drive a rotatable drive member that is engagable with the elongated, fixed drive member. The rotatable drive member may be engaged with, and disengaged from, the fixed drive member. Methods of moving a partition along a track include actuating a motor carried by a movable partition to drive rotation of a drive member while the drive member is engaged with an elongated, fixed drive member, and manually moving the partition along the track while the rotatable drive member is disengaged from the fixed drive member. Methods of installing a movable partition system include configuring a rotatable drive member to be capable of engagement with, and disengagement from, an elongated, fixed drive member.
Abstract:
A drive apparatus for boarding and unboarding devices, in particular for passenger doors, boarding ramps, retractable steps and the like on public transport vehicles having an electric drive motor the driven element of which is connected to the input element of a first reduction gear the output element of which is coupled to the actuation devices for the boarding and unboarding devices where the drive apparatus is constructed as a compact drive where the electric drive motor, the first reduction gear and a second reduction gear as well as an energizable clutch are disposed axially behind each other inside a tubular housing between the first reduction gear and the second reduction gear.
Abstract:
A device for checking the door of a vehicle that includes a fixing member that is attached to a vehicle body; a checker arm, an edge of which is hinge combined with the fixing member to be rotated and is located between a door and the vehicle body; and a door checker that is attached to the door to maintain the door in a stop-state at a position on a moving path of the door while sliding in a length direction of the checker arm by accommodating the checker arm therein, wherein the door checker includes: a housing in which an accommodation space is formed; a transformation element that is accommodated in the housing and transforms a straight line motion of the checker arm into a rotational motion by being engaged with the checker arm; a rotation element that is disposed within the housing, rotates by being engaged with the transformation element, and includes a friction plate; a fixing element that is fixedly installed in the housing and restricts the rotation member by attracting the friction plate of the rotation element by an electromagnetic force when an electrical signal is applied thereto; and a control element that controls ON and OFF of the electrical signal being applied to the fixing element.
