Press fit storm window system
A system for mounting a panel within an existing window frame. The system includes an elongated deformable bulb, and an elongated carrier. The bulb has a resilient portion, a base section, an extension extending from the base section, and a crosspiece coupled to a distal end of the extension. The crosspiece includes a pair of shoulders at opposite ends of the crosspiece. Each shoulder protrudes laterally beyond the extension. The elongated carrier has a receiving slot opposite a panel gap. The receiving slot has a neck laterally narrower than an interior cavity of the receiving slot. The receiving slot is configured to securely receive the crosspiece of the bulb and to confine the shoulders of the crosspiece.
VENTED STOP BEAD APPARATUS, VENTED WEEP SCREED APPARATUS, AND RELATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS THEREOF
A vented stop bead and a vented weep screed are used to vent a stucco or plaster wall. The vented stop bead has a base panel with a stop bead wall extending from the base panel at a first location and a spacing member wall extending from the base panel at a second location, wherein a spacing member is connected to the spacing member wall. A vented portion is positioned between the stop bead wall and the spacing member wall, wherein the vented portion has a venting structure positioned through the base panel between the first and second locations. The vented weep screed has a nailing fin with a first leg extending therefrom at a first location. A second leg extends from the nailing fin at a second location, the second leg having at least one venting structure positioned through the second leg.
Thermal break system and method for doors and windows
A door frame including an inside steel panel having a first inner surface and a first outer surface, and a C-shaped section with a first portion of the C-shaped section extending parallel to the inner surface of the inside steel panel; an outside steel panel having a second inner surface and a second outer surface, and a U-shaped section with a second portion of the C-shaped section extending perpendicular to the second inner surface of the outside steel panel; a first insulating material interposed between the first portion of the C-shaped section of the inside steel panel and the second inner surface of the outside steel panel to thermally isolate the inside steel panel and the outside steel panel from each other, and said inside steel panel and outside steel panel being secured together to form a thermal break system.

The receiving slot is configured to securely receive the crosspiece of the bulb and to confine the shoulders of the crosspiece.
Thermal break system and method for doors and windows
A door assembly providing a door frame including an inside steel panel having an inner surface and an outer surface, and a C-shaped section extending about a periphery thereof with a portion of the C-shaped section extending in part parallel to the inner surface of the inside steel panel; an outside steel panel having an inner surface and an outer surface, and a C-shaped section extending about a periphery thereof with a portion of the C-shaped section extending in part parallel to the inner surface of the outside steel panel; an insulating material interposed between respective C-shaped sections of the inside steel panel and the outside steel panel to thermally isolate the inside steel panel and the outside steel panel from each other, and said inside steel panel and outside steel panel being secured together at respective C-shaped sections to form the thermal break system.
THERMAL BREAK SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DOORS AND WINDOWS
A door frame including an inside steel panel having a first inner surface and a first outer surface, and a C-shaped section with a first portion of the C-shaped section extending parallel to the inner surface of the inside steel panel; an outside steel panel having a second inner surface and a second outer surface, and a U-shaped section with a second portion of the C-shaped section extending perpendicular to the second inner surface of the outside steel panel; a first insulating material interposed between the first portion of the C-shaped section of the inside steel panel and the second inner surface of the outside steel panel to thermally isolate the inside steel panel and the outside steel panel from each other, and said inside steel panel and outside steel panel being secured together to form a thermal break system.
Face panels for loading dock seals and shelters
Seal assemblies for dock shelters and dock seals at a loading dock are disclosed herein. An example seal assembly includes a foam pad, a pliable cover to couple to the foam pad, and a shield to attach to the foam pad. The shield has a first end and a second end. The first end is to couple to at least one of the foam pad or the pliable cover and the second end is to project adjacent a vehicle-engaging surface of the foam pad. The shield is to move relative to the foam pad between a standby position when a vehicle is in a non-engaging relationship with the vehicle-engaging surface and a deflected position when the vehicle is in engagement with the vehicle-engaging surface.
Press fit storm window system
A system for mounting a secondary panel within a window frame of an existing window. The system includes a rigid panel, an elongated deformable bulb, and an elongated carrier. The bulb has a resilient portion, a base section, an extension extending from the base section, and a crosspiece coupled to a distal end of the extension. The crosspiece includes a pair of shoulders at opposite ends of the crosspiece. Each shoulder protrudes laterally beyond the extension. The elongated carrier has a receiving slot opposite a panel gap configured to receive an edge of the panel. The receiving slot has a neck laterally narrower than an interior cavity of the receiving slot. The receiving slot is configured to securely receive the crosspiece of the bulb and to confine the shoulders of the crosspiece.
Vehicle sealing member
An extruded portion 2 is provided with a bridge. A molded portion 3 has a slit 7 through which the core of a mold for molding the inner surface of a hollow seal part 4. An edge of the slit 7 has unevenness. In sealing, a protruding portion 16 of the uneven edge comes into contact with the inner surface of the hollow seal part 4.
Aircraft door and aircraft comprising such an aircraft door
An aircraft door includes an outer shell with an exterior and an interior, a stiffening structure arranged on the interior of the outer shell, and at least one door seal arranged on the interior of the outer shell. The door seal is circumferential in an edge region. In the edge region between the outer shell and the door seal at least one circumferential stiffening component is arranged that is connected to the stiffening structure. Thus, in a particularly simple manner and without modifications to a stiffening structure, an aircraft door may be provided with very substantial stiffness in an edge region.
