Present invention relates to an automatic door operator 10 and method of operating said automatic door operator 10. The automatic door operator 10 is arranged to operate the movable door member D1, said automatic door operator 10 comprising a drive unit 24 for moving the movable door member D1 between a closed position and an open position, a controller 32 configured to control said drive unit 24 and a sensor S1 operatively connected to said controller 32. The sensor is configured to monitor the operation of the movable door member D1 and transfer sensor data to said controller 32.

A lifting apparatus (100) includes a connector assembly (110) with a first connecting member (120), a second connecting member (130) and a connecting link (140), the first and second connecting members (120, 130) configured to be pivot-mounted at first ends (122, 132) to a first stationary component (200), and a pneumatic supporting member (150) is coupled to the first and second connecting members (120, 130) via the connecting link (140). The connector assembly (110) and the pneumatic supporting member (150) are configured to perform a lifting motion, wherein, when performing the lifting motion, the first and second connecting members (120, 130) transition from a first position (P1) to a second position (P2) and the pneumatic supporting member (150) transitions from an extended position (EP) to a compressed position (CP).

Switch arrangements for powered doors are disclosed. A door includes a panel and a track to guide movement of the panel between an open position and a closed position. The track defines a track slot extending along an exterior length of the track. The door further includes a sensor target to be carried by the panel within the track. The door also includes a sensor selectively attachable to an exterior of the track via the track slot. The sensor to detect the sensor target when the panel is in a first position. The track defines an aperture to be positioned between the sensor target and the sensor when the panel is in the first position.

The present invention relates to a sectional door operator system (1) for opening and closing an opening (2), comprising a door frame (3) comprising a first frame section (4) at a first side (5) of the opening (2) and a second frame section (6) at a second side (7) of the opening (2), a door (8) arranged to be moved between an open (0) and closed (C) position and comprising a plurality of horizontal and interconnected sections (9) connected to the door frame (3) at least a drive unit (10) mounted on a first section (9) of the plurality of sections (9), wherein the drive unit (10) is moveably connected to the first frame section (4) and the drive unit (10) is moveably connected to the second frame section (6), the drive unit (10) comprise at least one motor (11) connected to at least one battery (12) arranged to power the at least one motor (11), and the drive unit (10) is arranged to move the door (8) from the closed position (C) to the open position (0).

A drive apparatus for a closure element of a motor vehicle, including a tube defining an axis, a spindle disposed within the tube and configured to translate along the axis from an extended position to a first retracted position and a second retracted position, a spindle nut disposed within the tube and operatively engaged to the spindle, a stop nut fixed to the spindle, and a damping element disposed between the spindle nut and the stop nut. The tube defines a first end stop face and the stop nut defines a second end stop face, and when the spindle is in the first retracted position, the damping element engages the first end stop face and is spaced apart from the stop nut.

The present invention relates to a door operator system (1) for opening and closing an opening (2), comprising a drive unit (10), a door frame (3) and a door (8), wherein the drive unit (10) is mounted to the door (8) and adapted to move the door (8) between an open (O) and closed position (C), the door frame (3) comprise at least a first frame section (4) adapted to be mounted at a first side (5) of the opening (2), a second frame section (6) adapted to be mounted at a second side (7) of the opening (2), a first track unit (31) moveably connected to the first frame section (4), and a second track unit (32) moveably connected to the second frame section (6), the door (8) is at a first side moveably connected to the first track unit (31) and at a second side moveably connected to the second track unit (32), wherein the door frame (3) is adapted to move the door (8) between the closed position (C) and an intermediate position (I) and to guide the door (8) between the intermediate position (I) and the open position (O).

A system for locking a platform screen door leaf, the leaf being capable of moving by a horizontal translational movement in a plane of the leaf between open and closed positions, including a bearing rail mounted on the leaf and having a reception recess, a motor body forming the stator of a drive motor of the leaf and mounted freely in rotation about a motor axis on a gear unit, a locking roller mounted projecting on the motor body and arranged so as to roll along the bearing rail during a movement of the leaf, and engage, by a rotation of the motor body, in the reception recess when the leaf reaches the closed position or the open position, in order to lock.

A door mechanism for a compartment on an aircraft that includes a door with a first lower guide, a second lower guide, a first upper guide, and a second upper guide.
