Condensation water disposal device of a rapid sliding roll-up door interposed between two environments with different temperatures
A high speed sliding roll-up door interposed between two rooms at different temperatures has a flexible curtain to close or open a passage of a wall separating these rooms. The roll-up door has two side uprights having guide rails of the side edges of the curtain, and an upper crosspiece near which there is a storage area of the curtain. A device for draining the condensation water present on the curtain includes guide rails having an upper rectilinear portion, close to the shelter area, and a lower rectilinear portion offset with respect to the upper rectilinear portion, between which an inclined portion is interposed which is connected upstream and downstream with the upper and lower rectilinear portion. Below the upper rectilinear portion there is a gutter formation configured to receive the condensation water present on the curtain, when this rises towards the shelter area.
System for a lock closure, a lock for use with such a system, and a closure system
A system for a closure lock comprises a battery-powered remote module with a lock mechanism for operating the lock, the remote module communicating with a base station coupled to a closure controller, the base station able to send lock control signals to the remote module to operate the lock. The module is arranged to have an operation mode and a non-operation mode, power consumption in the non-operation mode being lower than that in the operation mode, and is further configured to switch between the modes based on instructions from the base station. In the non-operation mode, the module maintains a communication link with the base station based on a pre-established synchronisation protocol.
The invention provides reliability against interference between base station and remote module, whilst greatly limiting the power consumption of the remote module.

VEHICLE INTERIOR ASSEMBLY WITH TAMBOUR DOOR
A vehicle interior assembly includes a tambour door that is moveable along end guides between an open position and a closed position. The tambour door includes a plurality of slats interconnected by a unidirectional cord embedded in a plastic material of each one of the slats. The cord, such as yarn of aramid fibers can be molded-in to each one of the slats to simplified formation of the articulated joints between slats.

Door, in particular vertical-lift door, for closing an opening in a wall which separates two different temperature zones from one another
A door, in particular vertical-lift door, for closing an opening in a wall, in particular in a wall which separates two different temperature zones from one another, having a movable, flexible door leaf which comprises multiple separate, flexible door leaf layers which are guided such that they are spaced apart from one another in the closed state of the door, and having at least one winding shaft onto which the door leaf can be wound up in order to open the door, in which two adjacent door leaf layers are connected to one another by at least one spacer which ensures a spacing, defined by the spacer, of the two door leaf layers at least in the region of the spacer in the closed state of the door.
CHILD SAFETY DOOR BARRIER
The present disclosure provides a child safety door barrier, including a coiled tube and a fabric wound around the coiled tube. A first mounting mechanism is disposed on a first end of the coiled tube. A second mounting mechanism is disposed on a second end opposite to the first end of the coiled tube. A circular groove is disposed inside the coiled tube. An elastic component is disposed inside the circular groove, A first end of the elastic component penetrates through the coiled tube and then fixedly connects with a first end of the fabric, a second end opposite to the first end of the elastic component is fixedly connected with the second mounting mechanism. A transceiving mechanism is disposed on a second end opposite to the first end of the fabric, and the transceiving mechanism is configured to pull the fabric out from the coiled tube and fix the fabric.
ROLLER-SHUTTER-TYPE GUARDRAIL
Disclosed is a roller-shutter-type guardrail, which includes: a shutter fixing seat provided with an insertion hole; and a shutter assembly, the roller shutter assembly including a shutter mounting seat, a rotating shaft being rotatably mounted on the roller shutter mounting seat, the rotating shaft being provided with a shutter cloth, a connecting member being arranged on a free end of the shutter cloth, and the shutter mounting seat being provided with a locking mechanism for limiting or releasing rotation of the rotating shaft.
Deployable Sandwich-like Shell Structural System
One embodiment of a deployable structural system having sandwich-like shell stiffness and strength properties constructed of an outer elastic sheet (11) and an inner elastic sheet (12) connected by a plurality of parallel elongated substantially rigid webs (13) wherein hinges (14) constitute the connections. The hinge connection spacing dimensions on the inner and outer elastic sheets are differing such that the resulting assemblage may be elastically bent into a compact cylindrical configuration. Deployment is achieved through reversal of the bending process and application of sufficient external supports such that the deployed configuration is statically stable. Additional embodiments are described.
Retractable Barrier System
A retractable barrier system for inhibiting access to designated private and public areas both indoors and outdoors, including by way of example but not limitation, retail and warehouse aisles and the like, includes a flexible screen retractable and extensible from a rotatable rod coupled to a mounting member, the mounting member having an attachment mechanism for coupling with a receiving member, wherein a winding mechanism is coupled to the rotatable rod for retractably receiving and extending the flexible screen, the flexible screen is comprised of material having a sufficient modulus of elasticity to promote substantially smooth retractably receiving thereof and may further include tapering between ends thereof, and the winding mechanism may include a guide member having a surface of sufficient diameter oriented substantially perpendicular to the flexible screen to guide the flexible screen upon retractably receiving the screen.
