DEVICE FOR PREVENTING HUMAN BODY FROM BEING JAMMED USING CHANGE IN CAPACITANCE

A device for preventing a human body from being jammed by using a change in capacitance, includes: a sensor unit which detects a change in capacitance corresponding to a gap between an external conductor pressed by a human body approaching a driven object and an internal conductor; a signal processing unit which compares a detection signal of the sensor unit with a reference value and outputs a jamming occurrence signal indicating the human body being jammed in the driven object; a motor driving unit which drives a motor to move the driven object; and a control unit which controls the motor driving unit to stop or move the driven object in the opposite direction when the jamming occurrence signal is received from the signal processing unit, thereby preventing a safety accident caused by the human body being jammed.

PREVENTING FINGER OF A USER FROM PINCH IN A DOOR GAP
20240076924 · 2024-03-07 ·

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for preventing a finger of a user from pinch in a door gap. The method comprises detecting a position of one or more fingers of a user using at least one sensor mounted on a door, determining whether the position of the one or more fingers of the user is in a door gap of the door, generating a signal to stop the moving panel of the door based on the determination that the position of the one or more fingers of the user is in the door gap of the door, transmitting the signal to a door stopper mounted on the door, and preventing a closure of the door by maintaining a distance between the frame and the moving panel of the door based on the signal.

The corresponding system and computer-readable storage medium is also disclosed.

A door opening/closing device includes: an opening/closing bar attached to a door, which is actuated by a motor and is used for opening and closing the door; a door closing state detecting part configured to detect whether the door is in a closed state; a locking device configured to lock and unlock the door; a lock pin capable of being moved to a locked position or an unlocked position by the locking device; an engaging member attached to the opening/closing bar, which includes an engaging part configured to engage with the lock pin moved to the locked position; a first spring provided between the opening/closing bar and the engaging member; and a locking control unit configured to cause the locking device to lock the door when the closed state is detected by the door closing state detecting part.

Anti-pinch logic for door opening actuator

A vehicle door system includes a vehicle door and electrically-powered linear and rotary actuators. The vehicle door system also includes a pinch sensor. Upon receiving an open door command, a controller actuates the linear actuator and then actuates the rotary actuator to open the door. The controller also actuates the linear actuator to prevent closing of the door if the pinch-sensor detects an object in a door opening. The controller actuates the rotary actuator to close the door upon receiving a close door command.

HINGE ASSEMBLY

A flush-mount refrigerator is provided that includes a cabinet defining a compartment and including a pair of side walls that extends forwardly of the compartment. A pair of doors is coupled to the cabinet and positioned on either side of a centerline of the cabinet. The pair of doors are spaced apart by a predetermined spacing. A storage feature is positioned within the compartment of the cabinet and movable between an extended position and a recessed position when one or both of the pair of doors is in an open position. A hinge assembly is coupled to the cabinet and to one of the pair of doors. The hinge assembly includes a six-link mechanism that keeps the door within a predefined distance of at least one side wall when the door is moved from a closed position to the open position.

ANTI-PINCH CONTROL SYSTEM FOR POWERED VEHICLE DOORS

A vehicle includes a body and front and rear doors having front and rear powered latches, front and rear anti-pinch sensors, and front and rear electrically-powered door openers. The vehicle further includes a controller that is configured to receive an unlatch signal from unlatch sensors/switches and generate a signal to unlatch the front and rear powered latches and actuate the front and rear door openers after the front and rear powered latches are unlatched. The controller may also be configured to actuate the rear door opener to retain the rear door in an open position when the front pinch sensor detects a hand to thereby prevent pinching.
