Embodiments for an automated sliding door system having a slide and rail assembly engaged to a door panel for automatically sliding the door panel relative to a door frame are described. The slide and rail assembly is in operative communication with microprocessor that executes software to adjust various operational parameters of the slide and rail assembly to operate the automatic sliding door.

A pivot hinge bracket assembly for use with a pivot hinge for a reach-in type cool room refrigerator includes two mirror imaged main bracket portions and a pivot plate removably coupled to one of the main bracket portions. The main bracket portion includes an edge mounting flange extending to a rear mounting flange mounted to the cool room refrigerator door jamb. The edge mounting flange has a modified square mounting hole and pivot pin plate screw mounting holes. The rear mounting flange has two door screw mounting holes. The pivot plate includes a pivot plate mounting flange and a pivot pin. The pivot hinge bracket assembly also includes an optional removably coupled door stop.

A liftgate (28) formed with a thermoplastic which is overmolded around preselected reinforcements at stress points, such as a corner area, which includes a pair of separate reinforcement plates (14,18) and wherein a 3-dimensional reinforcement plate (12) is connected between the pair of separate reinforcements (14,18). Preferably the 3-dimensional reinforcement plate is connected to three reinforcements.

Hinge assemblies having a tub knuckle, a lid leaf and a hinge pin assembly are provided. The tub knuckle has a base, a first pin holder extending from the base and a second pin holder extending from the base and spaced from the first pin holder. The lid leaf has a mounting plate and a pin holder. The hinge pin assembly is movable between a closed position and an open position, and includes a hinge pin and a retainer assembly that can be used to lock the hinge pin assembly in the closed and open positions.

The present invention relates to a damping system for closets with sliding doors (2) comprising: a damping device (1) and an actuating element (3), wherein the damping device (1) can be fitted in the upper guide (2a) of a door (2) through deformation of flanges (7) of respective supporting parts (5, 6) of said damping device (1) to allow the damping device (1) to be secured in the closet itself and to allow said damping device (1) to slide driven by the actuating element (3) during the relative movement between both; or the element actuating element (3) can be fitted in the upper guide (2a) of the door (2) through deformation of flanges (3c) of said actuating element (3), which allows it to be secured and to slide driven by the damping device (1) during the relative movement between both.

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 backplate for a door actuator, includes at least two mounting elements, one of the two mounting elements being formed for fastening to a mounting surface, in particular door, casing or wall, and the other mounting element for accommodating the door actuator. The backplate further includes at least one connecting assembly with a bar element mobile disposed at the first mounting element and a thermally activatable trigger element. The bar element is movable from a retaining position to a release position. In the retaining position, the bar element retains the second mounting element and, in the release position, releases the second mounting element. When thermally activated, the trigger element releases a movement of the bar element to the release position and/or, the trigger element moves the bar element to the release position.

An exemplary closure system includes, among other things, a striker assembly, a latch assembly, and a hooked structure. In response to the striker assembly and the latch assembly being laterally displaced from each other, the hooked structure engages one of the striker assembly or the latch assembly to block separation of the striker assembly from the latch assembly. An exemplary latching method includes, among other things, engaging a hooked structure in response to a striker assembly being laterally displaced relative to a latch assembly. The engaging blocks the striker assembly from separating relative to the latch assembly.

A sliding door assembly (200) comprising at least one sliding door leaf (121, 122), a sliding door rail (110), a door operating assembly (100) for operating the at least one sliding door leaf (121, 122), comprising a drive unit (112) being configured to drive the at least one sliding door leaf (121, 122) along the sliding door rail (110), at least one wagon member (130) movable along the sliding door rail (110), each sliding door leaf (121, 122) having one of the at least one wagon member (130) attached thereto, said one of the at least one wagon member (130) being in driving connection with the drive unit (112), an electric component (61, 62) mounted to the sliding door leaf (121, 122) and a cable arrangement (70) for transferring power and/or communication signals between the door operating assembly (100) and the electric component (61, 62). The cable arrangement (70) is routed to the electric component (61, 62) from the door operating assembly (100). The cable arrangement (70) comprises a flexible portion (73, 74) having an end section which is fix in relation to the sliding door leaf (121, 122) to allow for extension of the flexible portion (73, 74) to compensate for the movement of said sliding door leaf (121, 122).
