The sliding door system includes a sliding door, displaceable along a running rail relative to a stationary activation member up to a closing position; which includes a door leaf equipped with an activatable sealing device including an extractable sealing strip and actuating element equipped with a transmission device including a transmission element; and includes at least two carriages, including a carriage body and running elements connected to the door leaf, and are held in the running rail displaceable in parallel to the longitudinal axis of the running rail; wherein the activation member and transmission device are arranged so that, when the sliding door enters the closing position, a force can be transmitted from the activation member via the transmission element to the actuating element in order to drive out the sealing strip. A stationary buffer device stops the sliding door in the closing position and includes the activation member.

Systems and methods for cloud-based device management. In one implementation, a processing device receives one or more images captured in relation to a device, processes the one or more images to determine a presence of one or more identifiers within the one or more images, based on a determination that an identifier is present within the one or more images, processes the identifier in relation to an information repository to determine a permission status with respect to the identifier; identifies an instruction protocol associated with the device, generates an instruction corresponding to the permission status and the instruction protocol, and provides the instruction to the device.

An assembly for a vehicle having a supporting housing includes a drive unit, a moveably supported camera unit for recording a surrounding area of the vehicle, an actuation element, a mechanical return element, and a support element, which is coupled to the mechanical return element, wherein the mechanical return element exerts a return force that retains the actuation element in the standby position, or forces the actuation element into the standby position when the camera unit is in the standby position. The return element is supported on the support element. An assembly is thus created in structurally simple manner, which is distinguished by a small installation space, and which can be operated in an energy efficient manner. The support element can be moved in relation to the supporting housing. Also, the drive unit is coupled to the support element.

A furniture drive system includes a mechanical control unit having a pivotably mounted control arm for moving a movable furniture part, a spring device for applying force to the control arm, and a movably mounted control part having a transmission opening for transmitting a force from the spring device to the control arm. An electrical drive unit has an electric motor for moving the movable furniture part, and a driver to be driven by the electric motor for transmitting a torque of the electric motor to the mechanical control unit. The driver can be inserted into the transmission opening, and the electrical drive unit and the mechanical control unit are designed as separate assemblies and can be fastened to each other. A contact surface for the driver is arranged laterally adjacent to the transmission opening and the driver is preloaded toward the contact surface by a force store.

An arrangement has at least two door leaves which are connected to one another in an articulated manner, and can be moved between a parallel position, in which the at least two door leaves are oriented substantially parallel to one another, and a coplanar position, in which the at least two door leaves are oriented in a substantially coplanar manner. The arrangement includes a guide rail for fastening on a fixed furniture part, and a guide device to be connected to a folding/sliding door and mounted to be moved on the guide rail. The arrangement has a vertical carrier on which the folding/sliding door can be mounted in a pivotable manner. The guide rail and/or the guide device comprises a force store by which the folding/sliding door can be subjected to a force directed counter to the weight-induced force.

It is provided a window regulator assembly of a motor vehicle, comprising: a carrier; a guiding device provided on the carrier for guiding a flexible traction means via which an adjusting force produced on an adjustment drive can be transmitted to a window pane to be adjusted; a flexible traction means guided on the guiding device on which at least one driver is fixed, via which the window pane to be adjusted can be connected with the flexible traction means, so that when a force is introduced into the flexible traction means, the driver together with a window pane attached thereto is adjusted by an adjustment drive along a longitudinally extended adjustment path defining an adjustment surface a socket for bearing a deflection element by means of which the flexible traction means can be deflected; and a deflection element pivotally mounted on the socket.

A synchronization device includes at least two drive devices for moving a movable furniture part and a synchronization rod for synchronizing a movement of the drive devices. A first end region of the synchronization rod is connected to a first pivoting member of the first drive device, and a second end region of the synchronization rod is connected to a second pivoting member of the second drive device. A length compensating device is configured to at least partially compensate for a play between the drive devices and the synchronization rod along a longitudinal direction of the synchronization rod in a mounted condition of the synchronization rod. At least one of the drive devices includes a housing, and the length compensating device is at least partially integrated into the housing and/or the length compensating device is at least partially integrated into the synchronization rod.

Systems and methods for cloud-based device management. In one implementation, a processing device receives one or more images captured in relation to a device, processes the one or more images to determine a presence of one or more identifiers within the one or more images, based on a determination that an identifier is present within the one or more images, processes the identifier in relation to an information repository to determine a permission status with respect to the identifier; identifies an instruction protocol associated with the device, generates an instruction corresponding to the permission status and the instruction protocol, and provides the instruction to the device.

A window regulator assembly of a motor vehicle includes a guide rail on which a slide shoe is longitudinally movably mounted. The slide shoe has a main bracket which is mounted on the guide rail, and has a clamping arrangement. The clamping arrangement includes a clamping bracket connected to the main bracket and includes a pressure plate disposed parallel to the clamping bracket. A clamping component is clamped between the clamping bracket and the pressure plate. The clamping component holds a window pane. The clamping component has a holding surface which is disposed parallel to the pressure plate and a spacing between the holding surface and the clamping bracket is adjustable. A slide shoe of a window regulator assembly is also provided.
