A retention mechanism for a pair of bi-parting doors of a transit vehicle includes a first track connected to a first door of the pair; a second track connected to a second door of the pair; a first retention assembly connected to the transit vehicle and configured to retain the first track in the closed position; a second retention assembly connected to the transit vehicle and configured to retain the second track in the closed position; a first engagement member connected to the second track, the first engagement member being configured to engage the first retention assembly to cause the first retention assembly to move to retain the first track in the closed position when the second track is in the closed position; and a second engagement member connected to the first track, the second engagement member being configured to engage the second retention assembly to cause the second retention assembly to move to retain the second track in the closed position when the first track is in the closed position.

A laminated glass header for supporting a shower door. The header may have a taper at one or both of its ends to provide an automatic full open or full close feature of the door.

A hinge device includes: a first and a second hinge components having a common reference axis; and a power generating device. The first and the second hinge components are engaged with each other, so as to be rotatable about the reference axis relative to each other, and so that one of the first and the second hinge components supports the other. The power generating device includes a housing and an input shaft, and generates electric power by rotation of the input shaft. The housing of the power generating device is fixed to the first hinge component, so that the input shaft of the power generating device is positioned on the reference axis. The input shaft of the power generating device is restrained to the second hinge component with respect to the direction of rotation about the reference axis, so that the input shaft of the power generating device rotates by as much as rotation of the second hinge component when the second hinge component rotates about the reference axis.

A vehicle door actuator assembly includes a base plate having a first portion and a second portion, a first gear disposed proximate the first portion of the base plate, a second gear disposed proximate the second portion of the base plate, a third gear connected to the base plate, and a linkage engaging the first, second, and third gears. The base plate of the vehicle door actuator assembly is rotatable between a first position and a second position. As the base plate rotates between the first and second positions, the vehicle door actuator assembly maintains an outer surface of the vehicle door substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the vehicle at all points along a travel path of the vehicle door.

A pivot block including a first part for holding a bolt of an associated folding panel, and a second part that is able to be fixed to a track so as to position the first part and the bolt at a location whereby the folding panel is able to pivot about pivot bolt, wherein the first part is moveable relative to the second part lengthwise of the track, for adjustment of the position of the pivot bolt.

A shower door sliding mechanism is disclosed, the shower door sliding mechanism including a track component disposed in a fastening manner, a movable door piece, a pulley component, and a flexible closer component which comprises a fastening bracket and a flexible closer, the track component comprises a track having a longitudinal passage. The longitudinal passage includes a positioning component receiving groove and a sliding groove. A glass clamp component is disposed at a top of the movable door piece, and the top of the glass clamp component is connected to a threaded hole in the pulley component by using an adjusting screw, so that the movable door piece is integrally suspended directly below the flexible closer component and the pulley component. The inner space of the track can be fully utilized to reduce the height of the track and reduce the weight and manufacturing costs of the track.

A system with a base may be mounted on a vehicle, and a carriage assembly that may be movably connected to the base and may move with respect to the base. The carriage assembly may include a motor including a motor output shaft and motor housing, and a driving mechanism may couple to a door and to the motor output shaft or the motor housing. The carriage assembly may also include a coordination bar may be coupled to the motor output shaft or the motor housing, the motor output shaft or the motor housing may rotate the coordination bar responsive to operation of the motor. At least one linkage assembly may extend or retract to move the carriage assembly to move the door between an open position and a closed position based on rotation of the coordination bar.

Disclosed is a hidden shower door with a low-rail sliding assembly, including an upper rail assembly (10), a movable door assembly (20), a vertical frame assembly (30), and a bottom guide part (40), wherein the upper rail assembly (10) includes an upper rail (1010), a damping trigger (1020), and sliding assemblies (1030), and the sliding assemblies (1030) each are mounted in the upper rail (1010); the sliding assemblies (1030) each include pulleys (10311), pulley brackets (1060), adjusting screws (10312), a damper (1050), and a damper bracket (1040); the pulleys (10311) are mounted on the pulley brackets (1060). The two pulley brackets (1060) are connected and fixed to two ends of the damper bracket (1040) respectively, and the damper (1050) is mounted in a damper accommodating groove (1041) of the damper bracket (1040); the upper rail (1010) is provided with a first bottom plate (1011).

A cable guide for use with a window regulator assembly includes a body with a first rail support surface, a second rail support surface and a third rail support surface in a guide rail region and a cable support surface and a cable retention arm in a cable region. The first rail support surface is configured to be inserted through an aperture in a guide rail and be placed on a first side of the guide rail and a cable retention arm configured to receive a tensioned drive cable of the window regulator. The cable guide with the first, second and third rail support surfaces may be steadily assembled to the guide rail by utilizing the pushing force from the tensioned drive cable. The aperture is located along the guide rail such that the aperture is out of the slide path of the window carrier of the window regulator assembly.

Disclosed is a door system comprising: at least one travelable door element; at least one running rail for guiding the door element; and at least one light barrier element for detecting a free travel path of the door element, wherein the at least one running rail has a cut-out at or in which the at least one light barrier element is fastened.
