HEMP shielded sliding door system and method
A sliding door system and method is used in an enclosure that defines an inner area shielded against a High-Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse (“HEMP”). The HEMP shielded sliding door system includes an RF shielding door frame, an RF shielding door leaf mounted within an mechanical door leaf frame, a mechanical insertion and retraction assembly attached to both the mechanical door leaf frame and RF shielding door leaf and that operates to extend and retract the RF shielding door leaf into and out of the RF shielding door frame, a drive tube assembly operable to interact with and open and close mechanical door leaf frame (along with RF shielding door leaf) in a sliding motion, and a control assembly, including motor and an air regulator assembly. HEMP shielding air seals are activated when the RF shielding door leaf is inserted into the RF shielding door frame.
Window/shutter/door for outdoor settings
Window for outdoor settings, which comprises a movable wing provided with a first support frame hinged to a second support frame of a fixed framework by means of a hinging system, so that, when the movable wing is closed, the two frames define two opposite perimeter faces delimiting a slit. The window comprise a first perimeter gasket fixed to one of the two opposite perimeter faces, acting against the other perimeter face, and placed at an internal opening of the slit in order to conceal from view the hinging system of the window. The window further comprises a second perimeter gasket fixed to one of the two opposite perimeter faces, acting against the other perimeter face, and placed at an intermediate position between the internal opening and an external opening of the slit.
TOP-HANGING SLIDING DOOR INCLUDING WEDGE DESIGN TOP SEAL
Systems and methods for providing a door seal system for top-hanging sliding doors. In some implementations, two angled mating surfaces are used, one angled surface on a fixed frame and one reversed angled surface on the slideable door panel. The slideable door panel slides directly parallel to the fixed door frame. A mating seal surface is created that is only in frictional contact for a small portion of the linear slide distance of the door panel. In some implementations, rather than placing two opposing angled seal surfaces, the sealing system has one angled surface on the fixed door frame. In such implementations, the sliding door panel is adjusted to be in a reverse angled orientation relative to the angled surface of the fixed door frame. Seal designs for the rear vertical edge of the slideable door panel are also provided herein.
A PANEL FRAME AND A METHOD FOR PROVIDING A PANEL
A panel frame (10) is provided, comprising a first profile (100) having a first structure (102) to support a first side (52) of an associated panel (50), and a second structure (104) to support an edge (56) of the same panel (50), and a second profile (200) being configured to connect to the first profile (100) and comprising a first structure (202) to support a second side (54) of the panel (50). The first profile (100) comprises at least one magnetic portion (120), such that a magnetic member (300) can be attached to the magnetic portion (120) in order to temporary clamp the panel (50) between the magnetic member (300) and the first structure (102) of the first profile (100).
METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A MICRO-CELLULAR FOAM WEATHER SEAL
A weather seal includes an elongated micro-cellular foam bulb, and an elongated micro-cellular foam fin element attached to an extending along the length of the foam bulb. The fin elements includes a spine having opposed planar surfaces and at least one microcellular foam barb extending outwardly and at a downward angle from each surface and along the length of the spine. As an alternative to barbs, another option is to use a higher durometer foamed thermoplastic elastomer in a hollow circle shape that would push into a retention pocket. A t-slot version that has a foamed bulb and a polypropylene base is another option.
SOUNDPROOF DOOR SYSTEM
A soundproof door system includes a chute; a door body, where a bottom of the door body is inserted into the chute and able to slide along the chute; a first roller disposed on the bottom of the door body and supported on a bottom wall of the chute; a first soundproof plate provided with a first end connected to the door body and a second end abutting against an inner wall of the chute; a second soundproof plate provided with a third end connected to the door body and a fourth end abutting against the inner wall of the chute; and the first end and the third end are respectively located on two sides of the door body, and the second end and the fourth end are respectively located on both sides of the door body.
DOOR SEAL
A door seal for attaching to a door includes an elongated body that has a first arm for attaching to the door and a second arm pivotably coupled to the first arm. The first arm has a first connection feature, and the second arm has a second connection feature that is configured to connect to the first connection feature of the first arm. The first arm is movable relative to the second arm to a folded configuration that allows the door seal to be rolled to a coiled configuration. The second arm is movable relative to the first arm to allow the second connection feature to connect to the first connection feature such that the door seal is in an installed configuration.

HURRICANE DOOR
An entryway door is capable of withstanding direct hit hurricane loads and subsequent water surge for long periods. A door slab is formed of reaction-injected-molded aliphatic polyurethane having an outward face, and inward face, and a peripheral edge, with a window opening formed therethrough. A ballistic glass-clad polycarbonate laminate window is provided which sized larger than the window opening. The laminate window having a central light transmissive region and an outer boarder region. A primer is applied to the outer boarder region of outward and inward faces of the laminate window. The door slab is reaction-injected-molded about the laminate window with the outer boarder region extending into and is bonded to a portion of the door slab forming the window opening. The preferred door in mounted to a structure in an outwardly opening manor with a seal entrapped between the periphery of the door and a door jam.
