20230220714 · 2023-07-13 ·

Disclosed is a panic bar with a door closer, the panic bar having a locking device installed at a front end of a case and a door closer provided at a rear end of the case. The locking device is released upon pushing of the push bar provided in the case. An air cylinder is installed inside the case. A guide member is installed in one side of the air cylinder and a cylinder sealing cap is installed in the other side of the air cylinder. One side of a piston rod having a piston for compressing and expanding air inside the air cylinder passes through the guide member. A spring disposed between the piston and the guide member is installed on the piston rod.

Foot operable door opener

A foot operable door opener operates, without using one's hands, and without an electrical assist. The entrance cycle is initiated by stepping on a pedal. This force drives the pedal a ¼ turn, engaging a soft wheel to open the door. The pedal is hard linked to a crank arm which goes into a unidirectional crank shaft hub to turn the wheel. The downward pressure from the pedal pivots a ratcheted hinge connected to a bracketed spring-loaded wheel assembly to keep constant pressure to the ground. A gear box or multiple pumps of the pedal turns the wheel two or more 360 degrees rotations, opening the door to allow the entrant to pass until the foot pedal is dis-engaged. This action releases the ratcheting hinge mechanism, allowing the spring assisted wheel assemble to rotate to its original up position, releasing the wheel from the ground, allowing the door to close.

An access door assembly is for a floor structure. The access door assembly includes a door frame coupled to the floor structure and defining an opening aligned with a staircase, and an access door within the opening and having first and second longitudinal sides. The first longitudinal side defines a first opposing bevelled surface, and the floor structure adjacent the opening defines a second opposing bevelled surface. The access door assembly also includes an arm coupled to the access door and configured to pivot the access door between an open state and a closed state. The first and second opposing bevelled surfaces are aligned and abutting in the closed state, and are in spaced apart relation in the open state.

GAS PRESSURE SPRING AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE GAS PRESSURE SPRING
20230193975 · 2023-06-22 ·

A gas pressure spring is provided including a working cylinder which, together with a slidably mounted compensating piston, encloses a working chamber filled with a working medium. A slidably mounted working piston is fastened to a working rod. In the event of a temperature increase, a compensating medium in a compensating chamber expands. The compensating piston is acted upon by the pressure of the working medium and the pressure of the compensating medium) such that the volume of the working chamber is increased. The temperature dependency of the gas spring force should be reduced by a design which is as simple as possible. For this purpose, the compensating chamber is at least partially surrounded by the working rod. Thus, the compensating medium can be compactly accommodated, and the assembly of the gas spring is simplified.

Provided is a retracting device which can decrease a difference of restoring force of a tension coil spring between a retracted position and a stop position. The retracting device of the present invention includes a base 12, a slider 14 which can catch a trigger 8 and move from the stop position to the retracted position with respect to the base 12 and a tension coil spring (B) for relatively moving the slider 14 which has caught the trigger 8 from the stop position to the retracted position with respect to the base 12 to apply force for assisting the closing operation to a sliding door 1. The tension coil spring (B) is an initially-tensioned spring in which a coil closely contacts and which has initial tension in a direction in which the coil closely contacts when it is in a natural length.
