The present disclosure is directed to overhead door assemblies and operating systems. Disclosed herein is a drive drum that is compatible across a variety of overhead door types, including, for example, standard lift doors, vertical lift doors, and high lift doors. The drive drum of the present disclosure comprises a first cable groove section and a second cable groove section, opposite the first cable groove section, wherein at least one of the first cable groove section or the second cable groove section is in a non-linear graduated arrangement.

A lock system for a motor vehicle includes a handle for opening a door or hatch, a drive device coupled to the handle, and a control device which is suited for checking an access code of a mobile ID transmitter, coupled to the drive device. A lock device is provided for the door or hatch. The handle can move between a non-use position in which it is flush with an outer contour of the door or hatch and an opening position in which it protrudes at least in part from the outer contour. The drive device is coupled and designed for opening or closing the door or hatch such that it moves along a movement path along which the drive device extends the handle into its opening position or retracts it into its non-use position, as well as actuating the lock device.

An adjustable appliance hinge receiver includes a base including spaced-apart first and second lateral walls. A slide body is slidably connected to the base and located between the lateral walls. The slide body slides relative to the base along an adjustment axis. At least one hinge mounting structure is connected to the slide body and is adapted to be engaged by an associated hinge. An adjustment system includes a first inclined ramp connected to the slide body and an adjustment shaft that extends between and that is rotatably supported by the first and second lateral walls of the base. The adjustment shaft is rotatable relative to the base about an axis of rotation. The adjustment system also includes an adjustment member engaged with the adjustment shaft and selectively movable along the axis of rotation in opposite first and second directions in response to rotational movement of the adjustment shaft in opposite first and second rotational directions such that rotation of the adjustment shaft in one of the first and second rotational directions causes the adjustment member to bear against the first ramp and induce sliding movement of the slide body relative to the base along the adjustment axis.

This automatic gate assembly includes at least one first automatic gate and at least one second automatic gate. The or each first automatic gate includes a first frame defining a first passage, at least one first obstacle, chosen from the following obstacles: swing leaf, laterally sliding leaf, pivoting leaf, for selectively closing and opening the first passage, and a first motor assembly for moving the first obstacle. The or each second automatic gate includes a second frame defining a second passage, at least one second obstacle, different to the first obstacle and chosen from the following obstacles: swing leaf, laterally sliding leaf, pivoting leaf, for selectively closing and opening the second passage, and a second motor assembly for moving the second obstacle. The first and second motor assemblies are substantially identical to each other.

A trim assembly securable in a window frame includes a track on which a sliding window is supportable, a latch insert including a plurality of latch openings, and a latch mechanism securable to the sliding window adjacent the latch insert. The latch mechanism is displaceable between an extended position and a retracted position and includes a lever connected with a latch tab. In the extended position, the latch tab is positioned in a selected one of the latch openings. The latch mechanism is biased toward the extended position. The spacing of the latch openings provides for essentially infinite open/close positions.

A multi-joint hinge includes a base part, on which a door bearing is held pivotably via a lever mechanism with a plurality of levers which are mounted in the manner of a parallelogram. A damping element for braking a closing movement and a spring element for tightening the door bearing in a closing area in the closing direction are arranged within the multi-joint hinge. The damping element and the spring element are connected in parallel.

An electric motor-powered furniture drive includes an electric motor; an interface via which the electric motor-powered furniture drive can be connected, preferably detachably connected, to a mechanical actuator; and an identification device for automatically identifying a configuration of the mechanical actuator. Regions of the identification device are located on the interface of the electric motor-powered furniture drive so that the configuration of the mechanical actuator can be identified when the electric motor-powered furniture drive is connected to the mechanical actuator.

An automated window mechanism includes a motor attached to a sliding window and a rack on a window frame. A transmission couples the motor to the rack such that rotation of the motor causes the transmission to move the sliding window relative to the rack. The mechanism also includes a clutch switch assembly, that includes a switch and a clutch actuator responsive to the switch and being configured to engage and disengage the motor to the rack. The mechanism also includes a position sensor coupled to the transmission and configured to monitor a position of the sliding window relative to the frame using the transmission. The position sensor continues to monitor the rotational position of the transmission when the transmission is engaged and when the transmission is disengaged.
