The controller is also connected to one or more lock actuators that can lock and unlock the garage door as well as one or more man doors. Image data is used to control operation of the door, to lock and unlock the door in response to event, such as the delivery of a package, and lock and unlock the man doors to allow access to a dwelling and to secure the dwelling.

A pivoting fitting for pivoting a flap hinged on a furniture body, comprising an energy accumulator fastened to a connecting part which can be connected to a body wall, and a lever arrangement which is operatively connected to the energy accumulator and has at least one articulated lever, is configured such that the energy accumulator is connected to a control element comprising a cam disc which is fixed but rotatable with respect to the connecting part, which control element is connected in a movement-dependent manner to the articulated lever which is held on the one side on the connecting part and can be held on the other side on the flap, and is rotated when the articulated lever is pivoted, wherein in one pivoted end position, the energy accumulator is clamped, and in the other end position is unclamped relative thereto, and wherein the cam disc has a control contour with varying radius of curvature, on which cam disc the energy accumulator is held.

A corner drive assembly for a window locking system includes a case, a corner transfer spring, and first and second arms. The case includes first and second legs aligned with respective first and second axes. The legs are joined by a corner portion having an outer relief surface that is disposed adjacent to and spaced apart from a corner of a window frame. The spring is slidably disposed within the corner portion and has first and second ends slidable along the first and second axes, respectively. The first arm is disposed within the first leg, slidable along the first axis, and coupled to the first end of the spring. The second arm is within the second leg, slidable along the second axis, and coupled to the second end of the spring. The first and second arms are coupled to respective first and second link bars of the locking system.

In a door trim assembly for a vehicle door having an opening fitted with a vertically moveable window pane and a drive unit for driving the window pane for selectively closing the opening, the door trim assembly includes: a door trim main body configured to be attached to an inboard side part of the vehicle door under the opening; at least one transmitter provided in an upper part of the door trim main body; at least one receiver provided in an upper part of the door trim main body and configured to receive a signal emitted from the transmitter and reflected by an object positioned near the window pane; and a control unit connected to the receiver to compute a position of the object according to the signal received by the receiver and control the drive unit according to the computed position of the object.

Provided are door systems having a plurality of door panels and a frame, the door panels being movable between an extended position closing an opening in a building structure, and a folded retracted position. When in the extended position, the door panels interlock with each other forming a barrier to wind, dirt, dust and insects. The frame is movably attached to the building structure and when the door panels are in the extended position, the frame moves and engages the door panels with a sealing member to provide an airtight seal of the opening in the building structure.

A system for guiding and supporting a leaf of a platform-access door capable of moving relative to a fixed panel in a horizontal translational movement in a plane of the leaf between open and closed positions, includes a rail extending in a direction of the horizontal translational movement, a first set of rollers collaborating with the rail, for guiding and supporting it, with an axis of rotation perpendicular to the plane of the leaf and being made up of: a main roller in contact with a lower bearing surface of the rail; first and second secondary rollers which are offset from one another in at least a vertical direction and respectively in contact with the lower bearing surface and with an upper bearing surface of the rail and positioned some distance away from the main roller in the direction of a transition from the closed position into the open position.

A pivoting fitting for pivoting a flap hinged on a furniture body, comprising an energy accumulator fastened to a connecting part which can be connected to a body wall, and a lever arrangement which is operatively connected to the energy accumulator and has at least one articulated lever, is configured such that the energy accumulator is connected to a control element comprising a cam disc which is fixed but rotatable with respect to the connecting part, which control element is connected in a movement-dependent manner to the articulated lever which is held on the one side on the connecting part and can be held on the other side on the flap, and is rotated when the articulated lever is pivoted, wherein in one pivoted end position, the energy accumulator is clamped, and in the other end position is unclamped relative thereto, and wherein the cam disc has a control contour with varying radius of curvature, on which cam disc the energy accumulator is held.

The technology disclosed herein enables retraction of a vehicle midgate into a cavity. In one example, a vehicle includes a passenger cabin, a cargo bed, and a midgate module positioned between the passenger cabin and cargo bed. The midgate module includes a window, and a midgate body. The window is configured to move from a closed position to an open position within a cavity of the midgate body. The midgate body is configured to move from a closed position to an open position within a cavity formed by the passenger cabin.

A damping apparatus for glove compartments, includes the following: an elastic element designed so as to be stretched by a relative movement of two components that are movable in relation to one another, whereby a damping effect of the relative movement of the components is produced; a stopping apparatus designed so as to contact the elastic element during the relative movement of the two movable components and to deform such that, from the start of the contact, there results a change in the damping effect caused by the elastic element.

An assembly for guiding a movable furniture part relative to a furniture body includes a guide system to be fastened to the furniture body, a support on which the movable furniture part is to be mounted and by which the movable furniture part can be moved relative to the guide system between a retracted position and an extended position, a drive device by which the support can be moved relative to the guide system and which has a cable, the cable having a coupling element, and a coupling device for coupling to the coupling element. The coupling element is arranged on and/or in the guide system in order to automatically couple to the coupling device.
