A hinge for cold rooms or glass shutters, coupling a stationary support structure and a shutter movable between an open position and a shutter position, includes a hinge body having a working chamber; a pivot defining a first longitudinal axis coupled to the hinge body to rotate around the first axis between the open and the closed shutter position; a cam element integral with the pivot; a plunger element sliding in the working chamber along a second axis substantially perpendicular to the first axis, the plunger element having a slider with an operative face interacting with the cam element; and an elastic counteracting member acting upon the plunger element to move it along the second axis between a position proximal to the bottom wall of the working chamber and a position distal therefrom. The hinge body has a substantially plate shape.

A sliding door system for inline closure of an opening in the wall of a structure, which may be a building or an item of furniture, for example. The sliding door system includes a door panel, a guiderail assembly having a wall mount fixedly attached to the wall above the opening and a guiderail coupled to the wall mount via a plurality of doubled-hinge assemblies that together serve to allow the guiderail to pivot towards and away from the wall. The top portion of the door panel has one ore more roller assemblies that are slidably coupled to the guiderail via rollers. A stop on the guiderail serves as a catch, or cam, that causes a closing force on the door panel to be transferred to the double-hinge assemblies and to cause the door panel to be pulled into inline closure in the opening.

Embodiments of the invention provide a sealing system configured to provide a sealed boundary between a conditioned and an uncontrolled or separately conditioned environment. In some examples, the sealing system may comprise a door, a conditioning device, and a seal assembly. The door may be moveable between an opened position and a closed position. The seal assembly may be coupled to the door and have an airflow path. When the door is in the closed position, the conditioning device may be configured to direct conditioned air into the airflow path, thereby urging conditioned air through the seal to inhibit undesirable door and/or adjacent surface conditions.

A door closer (10) includes an exterior housing (11), a spring assembly (12), a ratchet assembly (13), and a clutch assembly (14). The housing has a central tube (17), drive collar (23), a top end cap (52), and a bottom end cap (65). The drive collar includes an indexing pin channel (41) and indexing pin (42) which includes a pawl (45) having a contact surface (47) and a curved bearing surface (48). The spring assembly includes a shaft (73), a spring stop (80), and a helical torsion spring (106) positioned upon the shaft. The ratchet assembly resides within drive collar and includes ratchet wheel (111) having an annular array of ratchet teeth (112) configured to mesh with the pawl of the indexing pin. Each tooth has an undercut contact surface (113) and a curved bearing surface (114). The clutch assembly includes a bottom disc (120) and a top disc (121).

The invention relates to a sliding door arrangement for a freezer cabinet, comprising a door frame, at least one sliding door, wherein the sliding door is movable along the frame plane between an open position and a closed position, and a guiding device. The guiding device comprises roller arrangements each with a first roller axis and at least one guiding element guiding the movement of the sliding door. The sliding door arrangement is characterized in that the guiding device is designed in such a manner that the sliding door moves transversely to the frame plane during a movement from the open position to the closed position, for which purpose, the guiding element has a parallel portion and an end portion, and the roller arrangements each have at least one further roller axis.

A thermal door release system is provided that includes a plurality of temperature sensors arranged within multiple environments; a controller; and a release apparatus; wherein the controller, using data from the temperature sensors, monitors the temperatures of the individual environments and when a temperature for an environment reaches a set temperature threshold for that environment, causes an action such as the release apparatus to operate a door to a specified position. The set points and actions to be taken can be set per environment by a user, such that different environments will have different set points. In an embodiment, the system can support staged logic such that at various different user-defined set point temperatures for an environment, specified actions can be taken, for example, sending an email to the facilities manager when the temperature is significantly above normal and closing the door when it reaches a higher set point value.

Provided is an angle-adjustable positioning and self-closing hinge for a highly sealed door, comprising a hinge part, a fixing base, a fixing bar, a threaded sleeve, a threaded ring, a plug, and an adjustment socket; the hinge part is provided with a bushing and a leaf; the fixing base is provided with a bushing; the fixing bar has a screw; a threaded sleeve is fastened inside the bushing, the plug is fastened inside the bushing, and the threaded sleeve and plug are spaced apart; between the threaded sleeve and plug in the two bushings are disposed the fixing bar, the two magnets, two springs, and the adjustment base; the screw of the fixing bar is screwed to the threaded sleeve.
