A door operator comprises a rotary shaft, a chain disk for rotating the rotary shaft, and a locking mechanism for locking the rotary shaft. The locking mechanism comprises a bidirectional rotary block, a plurality of push pins and anti-rotation posts. When the chain disk rotates, the push pins urge the bidirectional rotary block to rotate the rotary shaft, and when the rotary shaft rotates, the of anti-rotation posts lock the bidirectional rotary block, and preclude the rotary shaft from rotating.

A blind control for a window covering having a narrow profile; and particularly relates to a control module for a window shade where the location of the drive mechanism is selected to minimize the gap between the end of the window shade and inside edge of a window opening; locating the drive mechanism in a shell disposed in a housing to rigidity a reduced thickness of the drive so as to minimize the gap; and use a single rod depending from the control module to activate the drive mechanism in a safe and secure manner.

The invention also includes a housing with an end wall adjacent one end of the shade; a clutch projecting from said end wall and rotatable about a clutch axis, a drive gear engageable at one end of the clutch for rotatably driving said clutch and shade, said drive gear disposed in said housing adjacent said end wall; and a wand for driving said drive gear.

An awning adjustment device with variable speed and direction control serves to automatically open and close eclectic types of awnings by way of an elongated rod terminating at a hook. The hook detachably couples to an awning handle or crank mechanism. A motor powers the rod, so as to rotate the rod in variable speeds, directions, and durations. The rotational speed of the rod is either controlled by a user, or controlled by a rotation counter to variably increase or decrease the rotation of the rod, so as to prevent damaging the awning by rotating too fast. The control portion comprises a power on switch, a power off switch, a pause switch, a directional switch, and a speed switch. The motor operatively couples to at least one electrical power source through a power cord, or a battery to receive electrical power for operating the device.

A triple-shade roller blind includes a reel shaft for reeling a curtain having front and rear shade layers and a plurality of shading strips interconnecting the front and rear shade layers, and an adjusting assembly having a rotatable coupling member journalled on a pivot pin and coupled with the reel shaft to rotate the same, and an adjusting rod extending downwardly of and rotatable relative to the coupling member. A movement converting mechanism is disposed to convert rotation of the adjusting rod into the rotation of the coupling member as well as the reel shaft so as to adjust the distance between the front and rear shade layers and the shading areas of the shading strips.
