Abstract: A drive arrangement for a motor vehicle flap including a gas pressure element, the gas pressure element has an outwardly sealed cylinder and a piston moveable in the cylinder interior along the cylinder axis and subdivides the cylinder interior into two sub-chambers, the gas pressure element has a first drive connection connected to the cylinder, and a second drive connection connected to the piston, the cylinder filled with a fluid and the piston has an overflow channel arrangement to create a balancing flow between the two sub-chambers to balance a pressure drop between the two sub-chambers. The piston is assigned a switchable valve arrangement which, depending on the pressure drop between the two sub-chambers, to create different through-flow states differing the cross section of the overflow channel arrangement. Upon exceeding a predetermined threshold for the pressure drop, the valve arrangement switches to change the cross section of the overflow channel arrangement.

Abstract: A vehicle door unit comprises a rotating lever supported rotatably about a first shaft at a first end, a door mounting coupled rotatably about a second shaft to a second end of the rotating lever, a door attached to the door mounting and being configured to cover an opening in a vehicle and to close off a vehicle interior, and a drive unit configured to rotate the rotating lever about the first shaft between a closed position and an open position. The rotating lever is configured to move the second shaft, on a movement from the closed position to the open position, on a circular path, due to which the door mounting is first moved into the vehicle interior and, on further rotation of the rotating lever, out of the vehicle interior.

Abstract: A fluid-based spring counterbalance mechanism comprising an elastic flexible fluid-based spring disposed between a first plate and a second plate, each plate having a surface in contact with an end of the fluid-based spring. The counterbalance mechanism supports some or all of the weight of a movable barrier. A mechanism is configured to compress the flexible fluid-based spring between the respective surfaces of the two plates in response to motion of the movable barrier. By compressing the fluid-based spring, the counterbalance mechanism provides a force opposed to movement of the movable barrier.

Abstract: Methods of operating a fluid-based spring counterbalance mechanism for a movable barrier are used to support a portion of the weight of the movable barrier. A jackshaft is configured to be operatively coupled to the movable barrier such that rotation of the jackshaft raises or lowers the movable barrier. The jackshaft is operatively coupled to a rotatable input shaft of the fluid-based spring counterbalance mechanism. The rotatable input shaft is coupled to a flexible-walled fluid-based spring. Applying a first force by a movable barrier operator changes the position of the movable barrier, and the flexible-walled fluid-based spring exerts a second force that supports a portion of the weight of the movable barrier in addition to the first force.

Abstract: There is provided a driving control device of an opening and closing body, which drives the opening and closing body in a closed state by a motor through an idling section thereof. The device includes a calculation section for calculating a rotation speed difference between a rotation speed of the motor in the idling section and a current rotation speed of the motor; and an insertion detection section for detecting insertion of a foreign member based on the calculated rotation speed difference and a predetermined threshold value. The threshold value monotonously decreases according to an increase in the rotation amount of the motor to coincide with a fully-closed state threshold value at a predetermined rotation amount of the motor within an error range of the rotation amount corresponding to the fully-closed state, and to maintain the fully-closed state threshold value to a maximum rotation amount in the error range.

Abstract: The present invention provides for apparatus and methods for operating a garage door. An embodiment of an operating assembly for a door includes a shaft, a graduated drum, and an energy storing member. The shaft is coupled to the door such that the shaft rotates in a first direction as the door is opened and rotates in a second direction as the door is closed. The coupling of the shaft to the door is typically accomplished by a cable. The graduated drum is coupled to the shaft and the energy storing member is coupled to the graduated drum by another cable. The energy storing member is arranged such that the energy storing member stores energy as the door is closed and releases stored energy as the door is opened to assist in the raising and lowering of the door.

Abstract: A mechanism and method for operating a track-mounted door is disclosed. The mechanism includes a pair of side drums that are connected by first cables to the bottom of the door. The side drums are coaxially mounted on a shaft for simultaneous rotation with a pair of cable drums. The cable drums are connected to high pressure gas struts by second cables. Each second cable is carried around a shiv wheel that slides along a guide track as the second cable moves. Each shiv wheel is operatively connected to one of the gas struts. As the shiv wheel moves along the guide track toward the cable drum, the gas strut is charged. As the shiv wheel moves away from the cable drum, the gas strut is discharged. A standard electric motor and screw driven lift-arm is used to initiate the opening and closing of the door. The charged gas strut stores sufficient energy to overcome friction and gravity to assist the electric motor and lift-arm to open the door.
