MODULAR BARRIER PANEL FRAME REINFORCEMENT SYSTEMS AND METHODS
20240060356 · 2024-02-22 ·

A frame rail for a movable barrier includes a top side, a bottom side, a front side, and a rear side. A first module connector is formed on the rear side. The first module connector extends continuously along a length of the frame rail and is configured to slidably receive a corresponding second module connector of a module. The frame rail has a continuous cross-section with the first module connector integrally formed with the top, bottom, front, and rear sides. One of the first or second module connectors comprises a groove and the other of the first or second module connectors comprises a tongue configured for receipt within the groove. The first module connector is configured to slidably receive the second module connector from a longitudinal end surface of the frame rail.

Door for closing opening in structure and aircraft

The present invention relates to a door for closing an opening in a structure, including: a body arranged to be capable of abutting against a first side of the opening; at least one clamping member configured to be capable of abutting against an opposite second side of the opening; and a fastener arranged to fasten or release the clamping member relative to the body. The clamping member is moveable relative to the body between a first position where the clamping member abuts against the second side of the opening so as to clamp the structure between the body and the clamping member and a second position where the clamping member allows the door to be opened. The present invention further relates to an aircraft including the above door.

Shutters and shutter hinge elements
10358864 · 2019-07-23 · ·

A shutter assembly includes a frame with a pair of elongate side members and a pair of elongate cross members extending between the side members. The first side member includes an inwardly-facing frame surface in a region between the pair of cross members and further includes a frame-ledge extending inward beyond the inwardly-facing frame surface. The shutter assembly includes a shutter panel having a first stile pivotally coupled to the first side member of the frame, the shutter panel configured to swing between a closed position and an open position relative to the frame. The first stile includes a shutter recessed surface, and a shutter-ledge extending outwardly beyond the shutter recessed surface. For light-blocking purposes the shutter assembly is configured such that the shutter-ledge is positioned adjacent to the frame-ledge when the shutter panel is in the closed position.
