Hidden-lock door panel and containing device having the same
A hidden-lock door panel for use in a container includes a door panel body, a covering lid, a first lock, and a second lock. The door panel body includes a hidden space. The covering lid is disposed corresponding to the hidden space and slidably connected to the door panel body. The first lock and the second lock are both disposed in the hidden space. The first lock is an electronic lock and is used to control whether the covering lid can be released to slide. The second lock is used to control the door panel body to be unlocked or locked with respect to the container. Accordingly, unknowing persons are prevented from opening or breaking the door lock.
Exterior ventilator door for receiving outdoor air
A ventilator door brings fresh outside air into a structure through an outside opening and a fan or blower pulls outside air into a duct in the door. The air flows through the duct and into the structure through an inside grill remote from the outside opening. Heat is transferred from the flow of air to a heat sink disposed in the duct to cool the fresh air flowing into the duct. A regenerative heat sink may be used to capture heat from a flow of air from inside the structure and transfer the captured heat to a flow of outside air flowing into the structure. An inside opening in the door generally opposite to the outside opening. The air flow through the openings is controlled by movable panels by aligning or by misaligning openings in the movable panels with the openings in the outside and inside panels. A microprocessor controls the movable panels and the fan or blower in response to sensors inside and outside of the door.
Hollow core door for preventing pressure build up having a prefabricated center panel and method of making the door
A hollow core door for preventing pressure build up in a room having a forced air system includes an outer stile and rail frame, an inside skin having an opening secured to the outer frame, an outer skin having an opening secured to the outer frame, and a core assembly, which may be prefabricated, including a core assembly frame, a center panel disposed within the core assembly frame, openings extending through the center panel adjacent to the core assembly frame, spacers adjacent to the core frame to space the core assembly apart from the inside and outside skins, and the core assembly is disposed within the outer frame, whereby air flows through the opening in the inside skin, along the center panel, through the openings in the center panel, along the center panel and outwardly through the opening in the outside skin in a non-linear manner to prevent pressure build up in a room in which the door is installed to comply with the Department of Energy maximum recommended pressure of three pascals or less. Different types of spacers are disclosed. A method for making the hollow core door is disclosed.
Hollow core door with perimeter air flow and multiple damper panels
A hollow core door apparatus for preventing the build up of pressure in a room includes an inside door skin and an outside door skin, and the door skins include openings through which air flows. A center panel is disposed between and spaced apart from the skins. The center panel has an outer perimeter defined by notches through which air flows. Tabs between the notches are used to secure the center panel to the inside and outside door skins. Air flow from the room is through the opening in the inside skin, around the outer perimeter of the panel, and outwardly from the door and room through the outside skin in a non-linear manner. Air flow is controlled by a plurality of movable panels disposed adjacent to the outer perimeter of the center panel. Sensor elements for sensing desired information and for providing output signals, including signals for actuating the movable panels, are included.
Method of controlling a flow of air through a door
Hollow core door apparatus for preventing the build up of pressure in a room includes an inside door skin and an outside door skin, and the door skins include openings through which air flows. A center panel is disposed between and spaced apart from the skins. The center panel has an outer perimeter defined by notches through which air flows. Tabs between the notches are used to secure the center panel to the inside and outside door skins. Air flow from the room is through the opening in the inside skin, around the outer perimeter of the panel, and outwardly from the door and room through the outside skin in a non-linear manner. Air flow is controlled by a plurality of movable panels disposed adjacent to the outer perimeter of the center panel. Sensor elements for detecting aspects of the indoor environment and for providing output signals, including signals for actuating the movable panels, are included. A method of making the door follows the structural elements defined above.
Margin air flow door for preventing pressure build up
A door has a stile and rail frame and a center element secured to the stile and rail frame. Openings extend through the margins of the center element, and inside and outside outer skins or elements are secured to the stile and rail frame. The inside and outside outer skins have openings adjacent to and laterally spaced apart from the openings through the margins of the center element, whereby air flows through the opening in the inside outer skin, through the openings in the margins of the center element, and through the opening in the outside outer skin in a non-linear manner to prevent pressure buildup in a room to comply with the government recommended pressure of three pascals or less.
Quick release door roller assembly
An improved vertical lift door roller assembly has a wheel pivotally mounted to a shaft. The shaft is placed within a spring loaded locking cylinder. The locking cylinder is movable between a first position where it restricts pivoting of the wheel and a second position where the wheel is able to pivot. The door roller assembly is mountable to a support a vertical lift door, such as a bracket or a hinge. The roller wheel can be pivoted to decouple the roller from a vertical lift door wheel track and to reseat the wheel in the track.
Margin air flow doors for preventing pressure build up
Doors having stile and rail frames and center elements secured to the stile and rail frames and the center elements have margins inwardly where the center elements and the door frames overlap and openings extend through the margins outwardly from openings in skins, and inside and outside skins are secured to the stile and rail frames. The inside and outside skins have openings adjacent to and laterally or inwardly spaced apart from the openings through the margins whereby air flows through the openings in the inside skin, through the openings in the margins, and through the openings in the outside skin in a non-linear manner to prevent pressure build up in rooms to comply with the Department of Energy maximum recommended room pressure of three pascals or less.
