A building sliding door system separates a first building region from a second building region and has a frame structure that has a passage region and a wall shell region. A sliding door is displaced in the frame structure between a closed position and an open position, wherein the wall shell region at least partially receives the sliding door in the open position. An electromechanical drive unit and a control device control the displacement of the sliding door. A fire protection unit has a bracket and, movably mounted on the bracket, a fire protection device made of a material having a defined fire resistance. The fire protection device is horizontally displaceable within the wall shell region with respect to the bracket between a retracted position in which the sliding door is in the open position, and an extended position in which the sliding door is in the closed position.

A frame assembly supporting an overhead door has a horizontal header connected to upright columns or posts with splice assemblies. Fasteners mounted on the columns cooperate with retainers on the splice assemblies to position and connect the columns to the header. Hinge assemblies pivotally mount the door on the header for movement between open and closed positions.

A device for manually and electromotively adjusting or securing a first vehicle part and a second vehicle part relative to each other is provided. The device includes an adjustment part which has a joint for pivotal arrangement on the first vehicle part, wherein the adjustment part is to be arranged on the first vehicle part in such a manner that, when the vehicle parts are adjusted relative to each other, the adjustment part moves relative to the second vehicle part, an output element which is to be arranged on the second vehicle part, an output element which is to be arranged on the second vehicle part, is operatively connected to the adjustment part and is drivable in order to move the adjustment part relative to the second vehicle part, is operatively connected to the adjustment part and is drivable in order to move the adjustment part relative to the second vehicle part, and an electromotive drive device for driving the output element, wherein the drive device has a drive motor and a transmission coupling the drive motor to the output element.

A frame assembly supporting an overhead door has a horizontal header connected to upright columns or posts with splice assemblies. Fasteners mounted on the columns cooperate with retainers on the splice assemblies to position and connect the columns to the header. Hinges pivotally mount the door on the header for movement between open and closed positions. Linear actuators connected to the frame assembly and door are operable to move the door between door open and door closed positions.

A window balance assembly may include a carrier, a spring element, and a mounting bracket. The spring element may include first and second portions. The first portion may be coupled to the carrier. The mounting bracket may engage the second portion of the spring element and may selectively engage the carrier.

A sensor for an anti-entrapment system of a vehicle for preventing an object within an opening of the vehicle defined by a movable panel from being pinched by the movable panel includes a seal adapted to be mounted to a portion of the vehicle, an electrically conductive mounting carrier disposed in the seal and having a formed shape and operable to detect the object in the path of the movable panel and to generate a pinch sensor signal indicative of the object either touching the seal or in close proximity to the seal, and a controller for monitoring the electrically conductive mounting carrier, wherein the controller controls the movable panel to prevent the movable panel from pinching the object in response to the pinch sensor signal.

A door with a buffer device including a door frame; at least one door plate pivotally installed to a lateral side of the door frame, or two lateral sides of door frame, or the door plate; at least buffer device installed to a lateral side of the door plate. When the door plate is closed, the movable press plate will compress by the door frame so that the elastomers are compressed; as a result, in closing the door plate, the movable press plate will resist against the door frame or the door plate and the elastomers provide buffer force therebetween; when the door plate is closed, the movable press plate will tightly press the door frame or the door plate so that the door plate is completely attached to the door frame.

An eccentric hinge includes a rail, a stop block arranged on a first end of the rail, a fixing rod parallel with the rail, a sliding block, a connecting rod and a transmission rod, where the sliding block is arranged on the rail; a first end of the connecting rod is connected with a second end of the rail; a second end of the connecting rod is connected with the fixing rod; a first end of the transmission rod is connected with the sliding bock; a second end of the transmission rod is connected with the connecting rod; when the eccentric hinge is in a closed state, a first centerline of the fixing rod and a second centerline of the rail are parallel lines in a same plane; and a distance between the parallel lines is greater than 0 mm and less than or equal to 10 mm.

An emergency bi-fold door closing prevention system includes a building having an access opening with an upper edge. A bi-fold door is hingedly mounted to the building wall and includes a plurality of panels each being laterally elongated. The plurality of panels includes a bottom panel having a bottom edge that is positionable adjacent to a floor surface to define a closed position. A safety line assembly is attached to and extends between the building wall adjacent to the upper edge and the bi-fold door adjacent to the bottom edge. The safety line has an extendable length. The length of the safety line assembly extends when the bi-fold door moves toward the closed position below a threshold velocity. The length of the safety line assembly is inhibited from extending when the bi-fold door moves toward the closed position above the threshold velocity.
