A barricade used to obstruct the gap between a garage door, weather stripping, a threshold surface and a door frame. The barricade successfully prevents pests from breaching the barricade. The barricade uses a spring assist with low displacement force in order to conform to the changing downward or upward angle when a garage door is being operated. It also includes smooth ceramic or rubber that is magnetized to prevent chaffing to the garage door surface. This barrier stays in-place or rotates relative to the garage door face when encountering foreign objects in the path of the moving garage door. Alternatively, the barriers may be constructed of overlapping and/or abutting material configured to obstruct gaps at door frames and/or at threshold surfaces where a weather stripping and/or weather-stripping bulb provide inadequate obstruction.

An overhead garage door opening and closing system for a building structure having a track system comprising a pair of spaced apart tracks; a plurality of hinged door panels hingedly connected together to form the door; a plurality of track wheel assemblies disposed at said door panels, wherein each of said plurality of track wheel assembly comprises a shaft and a wheel rotatably mounted at said shaft and rotatable about an axis of rotation of said wheel, and wherein said door panels move along said tracks via rolling engagement of said wheels of said track wheel assemblies with said tracks as said door panels move between an opened position and a closed position; wherein said track wheel assemblies, when disposed at said door panels, are configured to allow for movement of the respective door panel relative to said wheels in a direction generally normal to said axes of rotation of said wheels and generally normal to a direction of travel of said wheels along said tracks; a door moving assembly that functions to move each of said door panels toward the building structure when the door is moved toward and to its closed position; and wherein, when said door moving assembly moves said door panels toward the building structure as the door closes, said door panels move relative to said wheels and toward the building structure and away from said axes of rotation and said wheels at said track.

A seal assembly for use with a door within a frame of a galley of an aircraft includes a seal configured to be movably coupled to the door and a seal holder holding the seal. The seal assembly includes a biasing mechanism coupled to the seal holder and configured to hold the seal in an open position by applying a biasing force to the seal holder. An activation mechanism is operably coupled to the seal holder that overcomes the biasing force to move the seal from the open position to a sealed position.

Methods and systems for reducing sound propagation between spaces divided by a retractable wall are disclosed. A retractable wall is configured to divide a space when deployed. An edge of the retractable wall is disposed into a track with a channel when the retractable wall is deployed. A bladder is configured to inflate when the retractable wall is deployed and to press the edge of the retractable wall. In this manner, sound propagation through any gaps is reduced.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet having a storage chamber, an inner case that defines the storage chamber, a first door rotatably installed on the cabinet and configured to open and close one side of the storage chamber, a second door that includes a pillar configured to rotate and contact the first door and that is installed on the cabinet and configured to open and close another side of the storage chamber, and a transfer member provided inside the inner case and configured to sense rotation of the second door and to guide rotation of the pillar. The transfer member includes a lifting guide portion that is configured to, based on the pillar approaching the lifting guide portion, move downward and contact the pillar while the pillar remains unfolded.
