High Efficiency Roller Shade
A motorized roller shade is provided. The motorized roller shade includes a shade tube in which a motor unit, a controller unit and a power supply unit are disposed. The controller unit includes a controller to control the motor. The power supply unit includes at least one bearing rotatably coupled to a support shaft. The motor unit includes at least one bearing, rotatably coupled to another support shaft, a DC gear motor and a counterbalancing device. The output shaft of the DC gear motor is coupled to the support shaft such that the output shaft and the support shaft do not rotate when the support shaft is attached to a mounting bracket
System for controlling the doors of a powered split tailgate
A power, split door system for a vehicle includes a first vehicle door and a second vehicle door arranged to be articulated between closed and open positions. A controller controls movement of the first and second doors between the open and closed positions. A collision zone is defined as a region of the door system in which the first vehicle door and the second vehicle door could potentially come into contact with one another. If both of the doors are within the collision zone during powered articulation of the doors, both are stopped within the collision zone and articulated in a reverse direction to the direction they were being articulated in and into either their fully open or fully closed positions in an appropriate manner that avoids collision of the doors or the doors may remain stopped.
DEVICE FOR CLOSING A CLOSURE MEMBER HINGED ONTO A SUPPORT
A closing device includes a torque storing mechanism, a first and a second actuation member which are both rotatable with respect to the supporting frame and a mechanical connector piece which is rotatable with respect to the supporting frame and configured for being mechanically fixed to the second hinge member which is fixed to the closure member. A first locking mechanism enables to lock the mechanical connector piece either to the first actuation member or to the second actuation member and a second locking mechanism enables to lock the supporting frame to the second actuation member when the connector piece is locked to the first actuation member and to the first actuation member when the connector piece is locked to the second actuation member. In this way, the closing device is suited for left and right turning closure members without requiring an extra gearing to reverse the rotation direction.

Dryer comprising a dismountable member
The present invention relates to a dryer (1) comprising a body (2), a drum (3) disposed inside the body (2), wherein the laundry to be dried is placed, an opening (4) which is situated on the body (2), a dismountable member (5) which is placed into the body (2) by being passed through the opening (4), whereon the particles in the air leaving the drum (3) are accumulated and a lid (6) which covers the opening (4) so as to close the front of the dismountable member (5).
Door control systems
The present disclosure includes systems, methods, and articles of manufacture for controlling a door. In various embodiments, exemplary systems may include a controller that may initialize and/or reset a limit count. A controller may initialize and/or reset a limit count in response to detection by a first position sensor of a first target. A controller may further initialize and/or reset a limit count by incrementing the limit count in response to a signal from a gear tooth sensor until a second position sensor detects a second target, whereupon the controller may store the limit count.
Method for controlling a screen, and actuator suitable for such a method
A method to be used for controlling a screen (1) including a load bar (2), a flexible element (4) supporting the load bar, and at least one controlled member for winding the flexible member, in order to move the load bar (2) between a first high or low position and a second low or high position, the movement resulting from an angular movement of the winding member. The method includes at least one step in which the angular movement of the of the winding member (52) is controlled with a temporal set value ((t)) of the instantaneous angular position ((t)) of the winding member (52).
Systems and methods for monitoring automatic doors
Monitoring systems for automatic doors comprise at least one input device configured for sensing at least one characteristic of at least one operational parameter of an automatic door system, a door system controller coupled to the at least one input device, at least one monitor display comprising a first interface operatively coupled to the door system controller, and at least another interface operatively coupled to the monitor display and configured to be operatively coupled to at least one remote display device. The at least one monitor display is configured to continuously request information representative of the at least one operational parameter characteristic from the door system controller and display the information. Methods of monitoring an automatic door system comprise transmitting data representative of an operational parameter characteristic from an input device to at least one door system controller; sending a description of the operational parameter to a monitor display continuously; and displaying indicia representative of the description of the operational parameter.
INTERLOCKING ROLLING SHEET DOOR SYSTEM
In accordance with various embodiments, there is provided an interlocking rolling sheet door and a method for assembling the interlocking rolling sheet door. In accordance with at least one embodiment, the interlocking rolling sheet door includes at least one curtain panel. Each curtain panel includes a first curl on a lateral end and a second curl on an opposing lateral end. One of the first curl and the second curl is an interior curl portion, and the other of the first curl and the second curl is an exterior curl portion. The first curl of one curtain panel is configured to rotationally engage an inner portion of the second curl of an adjacent curtain panel, whereby the first curl rotationally engaging the second curl until a distal end of the first curl fouls out against an inner surface of the second curl. The first curl and the second curl are configured to rotationally engage one another to form an interlocking mechanism between adjacent curtain panels to form the interlocking rolling sheet door.
