A vehicle includes a body having a door frame defining a door aperture, a vehicle door, a rail mounted on the body, a roller unit mounted on the vehicle door and configured to move along the rail and allow the vehicle door to open and close in a sliding mode and a swing mode, a center rail extending from an edge of the door aperture, a center roller unit including rollers configured to be guided along the center rail, a roller bracket having the rollers mounted thereon, a roller-side hinge element connected to the roller bracket, and a door-side hinge element rotatably connected to the roller-side hinge element by a hinge pin, a door-side docking unit releasably connecting the door-side hinge element to the vehicle door, and a frame-side docking unit releasably connecting the roller-side hinge element to the door frame.

Door operator systems include the use of an adaptor. The adaptor may be utilized to operatively couple separate door operator assemblies together in a double door operator system. The adaptor includes control components (e.g., switches, buttons, toggles, or levers) that are used to turn the door operator system on and off. While the adaptor may be used to operatively couple two separate door operator assemblies together to form a double door operator system, the adaptor may also be used within a single door operator system. Furthermore, with respect to double door operator systems, the system may also utilize a back plate assembly formed from two or more separate back plates (e.g., two or more back plate portions).

A shaft-mounted overhead door operator is disclosed having a motor, a torque transfer component such as a gear train, and a clutch that is axially movable to engage or disengage the clutch. While the door operator has power, the clutch is engaged to ensure door operator can raise, lower, and stop the overhead door as directed from a remote control. The clutch can be released in the event of a loss of power or by direction from the remote control in which case the clutch releases the shaft of the overhead door. The shaft-mounted overhead door is small, having a width no greater than three times the diameter of the shaft to which it is mounted.

A sliding door device for a vehicle includes a door panel for opening and closing a door opening and covered by an upper trim and a lower trim, and a center rail mounted on the door panel to extend in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle body and providing a path for a center roller mounted on a center portion of the vehicle body, wherein a lower portion of the upper trim and an upper portion of the lower trim are disposed to overlap each other vertically. The center roller is mounted on a center roller mounting bracket including a first surface extending toward the vehicle body to be vertical to the door panel, a second surface bent from the first surface toward a lower side of the vehicle body, and a third surface extending from the second surface toward the vehicle body to be vertical to the door panel.

An anti-jumping upper wheel device with double dampers comprises of an anti-jumping upper wheel assembly with double damper (10) being comprised of an upper wheel plate (11), an upper wheel (12), an upper wheel cover (13) and double dampers (14) and a pulling unit (20); wherein, an anti-jumping roller (17) is mounted to the upper wheel cover (13); the pulling unit (20) is a double-plate pulling unit which is comprised of a baseplate of pulling unit (21) and a pillar plate of pulling unit (22) mounted above it; a pulling pillar (221) is fixed vertically on the pillar plate of pulling unit (22); wherein, connecting elastic units (23, 24) are overlapped and connected in parallel to three branch plates (2131, 2132, 2133, 2141, 2142, 2143) mounted on longitudinal direction in parallel of both ends on longitudinal direction of the baseplate of pulling unit (21).

A vehicle barrier gate system which is positioned above a roadway through which vehicles pass. Some of the various embodiments of the present disclosure include a gate comprised of an arm and barrier which is adjustable between a raised position in which a vehicle may pass and a lowered position in which a vehicle is prevented from passing. The gate may be movably connected to a ceiling or an overhead support structure positioned above the roadway. Various types of actuators may be utilized to adjust the gate along a linear and/or angular path between the raised and lowered positions. A control unit may be in communication with one or more sensors and/or an authorization system to control the actuator. The gate may include a breakaway mechanism which allows the gate to be manually raised or lowered in the event of actuator failure or a vehicle ramming through the gate.

The invention relates to a shoot boll assembly for mounting in a groove formed in a side edge of a panel, the assembly including a handle mechanism, a shoot bolt and a rod to connect the handle mechanism to the shoot bolt so that, actuation of the handle mechanism causes the shoot bolt to extend and retract from a top or bottom edge of the panel, wherein the assembly includes a hinge block arranged to fit in the groove, the hinge block having a deck with attachment holes for a hinge and fixing platforms that secure the block to a base of the groove, wherein a passage is provided beneath the deck and platforms for the rod to pass through. The invention also relates to a hinge block for the shoot bolt assembly, a folding panel system and a method of constructing a panel.

A liftgate having an overmolded hinge point comprising a metal reinforcement overmolded with a polymer and having a compression limiter portion molded in. The compression limiter portion including a tubular portion for receiving a fastener encapsulated during overmolding and having overmolded gusset ribs extending therefrom during the overmolding process.

A holder to be attached to a vehicle window plate includes a bottom portion, a first side portion provided to extend in a first direction perpendicular to the bottom portion and a second side portion opposite to the first side portion. A value t/w is 1.5 or more when a smallest value of distances between end portions of the first side portion and end portions of the second side portion is expressed by w, and a distance between a central portion of the first side portion and a central portion of the second side portion is expressed by t.
