Adjustable path guide for movable partition assemblies
A movable partition system that can include branched overhead rails where movable panels, such as glass doors, wall panels, are guided along the branched overhead rails by path guides positioned with the overhead rails. The guide paths are shaped and aligned within the overhead rails to provide a smooth transition at the junction between overhead rails. The combination is suitable for use with both right-angle and oblique angle branched overhead rails.
Roller carriage for the reception of a sliding door with a lift-off protection device
A roller carriage for the reception of a sliding door includes a roller module for a displaceable affixing at a roller running path and a basic body for the attachment to the sliding door. The roller carriage includes a lift-off protection device for the protection against removal of the roller module out of the displaceable affixing at the roller running path. The lift-off protection device includes a lift-off protection element which is supported to be movable between a protection position and a release position, as well as an arresting device for an arresting of the lift-off protection element at least in the protection position.
Sliding door with braking system
A sliding door assembly includes a door frame with a top trim member, a bottom sill, and side jambs connected between the top trim member and the bottom sill, and a primary sliding panel secured in the door frame. The top trim member includes a track configured to support a weight of the primary sliding panel and prevent the primary sliding panel from coming off the track. Other features include an interlock mechanism to limit relative movement using multiple sliding doors and a brake mechanism to secure the doors in position when the door handle is released. A drop window includes features to accommodate for manufacturing tolerances and box frame assemblies that are out of square.
Guide and rail assembly and system for shower door and panel
A guide and rail assembly and system for stabilizing a shower door and stationary panel of a shower enclosure are disclosed. The assembly includes an exterior slider bracket configured for mounting on top edge of stationary panel, an exterior slider guide block configured for mounting on top edge of shower door, and an interior slider bracket configured to be housed within a longitudinal channel of the exterior slider guide block such that exterior slider guide block sets atop interior slider bracket and is secured thereto. The assembly further includes a front housing plate configured for attaching to bottom edge of the shower door, a roller bearing component configured to be slidably disposed along top surface of bottom guard rail of shower enclosure, a rear housing plate, and a cover plate configured to be secured to the rear housing plate. Cover plate and rear housing plate are positioned opposite of bottom edge of shower door from front housing plate such that roller bearing component is slidably disposed therebetween front housing plate and rear housing plate in an assembled configuration.
SHOWER DOOR ASSEMBLY
An elongated member for a shower door assembly includes a protrusion configured to be received within a channel of a header to slidably couple the elongated member to the header. The elongated member is configured to be slid within the channel between a first position to allow for a shower door to be installed onto, or removed from, the header and a second position to substantially impede upright movement of the shower door when the shower door is moved along the header.
Adjustable Path Guide for Movable Partition Assemblies
A movable partition system that can include branched overhead rails where movable panels, such as glass doors, wall panels, are guided along the branched overhead rails by path guides positioned with the overhead rails. The guide paths are shaped and aligned within the overhead rails to provide a smooth transition at the junction between overhead rails. The combination is suitable for use with both right-angle and oblique angle branched overhead rails.
Pre-assembled gate opener assembly
A pre-assembled gate opener assembly is comprised of a gate and an anchor assembly having a platform. A plurality of track assemblies on the platform provide a track on which the gate may slide from a first position (closed) to a second position (open) and any position in between. A guidepost having a Shepherd's hook configuration guides the gate as the gate passes therethrough. A pair of rollers within the interior of the top of the guidepost makes continuous contact with each side of the top of the gate both while the gate is stationary and in motion. A gate opener controller contains the required electrical connections to fully the operate gate opener assembly. Subterrain anchor supports provide the necessary support for the gate opener assembly. An alternative embodiment accommodates nontraditional configured gates. Installation of the gate opener assembly is performed by do-it-yourselfers in minimal time.
Shower door assembly
A shower door assembly includes a header, a door, and an elongated member. The header includes a track and a channel disposed above the track. The door is in moving engagement with the track. The elongated member is received within and slidably coupled to the channel and is configured to be moved within the channel between a first position to allow for removal of the door from the track, and a second position to substantially impede upright movement of the door when the door is moved along the track between an open and a closed position.
Slide and swing leaf/sash system
A slide and swing leaf/sash system includes a floor rail profile and a ceiling rail profile which are each C-shaped and in which at least two leaves/sashes arranged therebetween are displaceably guided, which leaves/sashes are mounted at least in each case by at least one carriage in the floor rail profile in such a way that, in the swiveled-in state of the leaves/sashes, the weight load of the leaves/sashes is completely absorbed by the floor rail profile. At least one lateral outlet opening for releasing a leaf/sash is arranged in the floor rail profile, a lifting runner, which is arranged above the floor rail profile, being mounted on at least one leaf/sash, a ramp element being arranged on the floor rail adjacent to at least one outlet opening and interacting with the lifting runner in such a way that the leaf/sash is raised on passing the ramp element.
A PANEL AND A PANEL SYSTEM
The panel of the panel system is movable and is intended to be positioned and connected between an essentially parallel lower guide and upper guide of the system in order to move the panel on the lower guide. The panel, for example, its lath, includes at least one claw configured to grip the lower guide, which is connected to the panel so the claw is able to move in the vertical direction when the panel is vertical. When pulled away from the panel, the claw may be attached to the lower guide. The claw tends to retract by itself towards the panel, away from the lower guide, which may include a rail to which the claw is attached and on which the panel may rest as it moves along the lower guide. As an extension of the rail may be an auxiliary rail, including, for example, a guide surface.
