The invention relates to a roller shutter (10, 32, 42, 51) for opening and closing a doorway having a door leaf (11) and side rails (17) for guiding the door leaf (11), and having a coiling device (14) for selectively rolling up the door leaf (11) for opening the doorway and unrolling the door leaf (11) for closing the doorway. For reducing or avoiding the risk of creating a polygon effect and for providing a roller shutter (10, 32, 42, 51) comprising a door leaf having rigid shutter elements with an increased height and/or with the possibility of applying an increased speed for opening and/or closing the door leaf the roller shutter (10, 32, 42, 51) is characterized in that a separate guiding device (21, 33, 43) is provided for guiding the door leaf (11) in the area between the side rail (17) and the coiling device (14), wherein the guiding device (21, 33, 43) is arranged to adjust to an increasing diameter and to a decreasing diameter of the coiling device (14).

The present invention relates to roll-up wall and acoustic barrier system (608) which may include an elongated member (300, 670). The elongated member may include a front wall (302), a rear wall (303) spaced from the front wall, a bottom wall (304), a first top wall (326a) adjacent the front wall, a second top wall (326b) adjacent the rear wall, and a channel (86) between the first top wall and the second top wall. The channel may comprise a first side wall (86a), a second side wall (86b), a first ledge (86c), and a second ledge (86d). The first and second ledges may define a slot (88) between the first side wall and the second side wall. The elongated member may further comprise a conduit (466) disposed between the front wall (302) and the rear wall (303) that is connected to the channel via the slot.

A containment device including a curtain that can be deployed from a first wound or folded position into a second unwound position, and a case for storing the curtain in the first position. The case is formed by a plurality of adjacent modules, the plurality of modules including active modules that are equipped with means for retaining and releasing the curtain and passive modules that are not equipped with means for retaining and releasing the curtain.

The invention relates to a roller shutter for opening and closing a doorway (12) having a door blade (11), the door blade (11) comprises several rigid shutter elements (13) which are hinged with each other, the shutter elements (13) are guided by side rails (18) at opposed sides of the doorway (12), wherein each shutter element (13) provides an end piece (19) at each horizontally spaced end of the shutter element (13) for spacing layers of rolled up shutter elements (13) apart from each other, each end piece (19) has at least one concave section (27) for coiling the end pieces (19) on a coiling device (14) and/or in layers on top of each other. For reducing the risk of weakening a connection between the end piece (19) and the shutter element (13), for reducing noise and/or vibrations during the opening and/or closing of the door way and/or to increase the stability of the roller shutter the roller shutter (10) is characterized in that at least some of the end pieces (19) having at least one plane gliding section (28), the plane gliding section (28) is arranged for interacting with a slide guide (36) of the side rail (18) for leading the end pieces (19) into and/or out of the side rails (18).

This disclosure presents a safe high speed roll-up door with spiral brackets. To enable a high speed operation, robust spiral brackets having efficient spacing are provided to guide the plurality of sectional slats. Durable and low noise signature rollers are used. A unique assembly configuration of the slats and the tracks guiding the rollers enable quick replacement of each individual roller without disassembling the door. A double-belt counter weight mechanism balances the door and incorporates safety sensors that prevent loosening the belts when the door is jammed. The belts are further adjustable using ratchets such that adjustment for the horizontal balance as well as weight position is made effortless. In all, the high speed roll-up door using sectional slats performs faster and quieter, withstands greater loads, and lasts longer than other existing roll-up doors with spiral brackets.

A building structure 1a, 1b, and 1c incorporates an outer wall 6 provided on a lower side of a sloped ceiling 2 in a slope direction, an opening part 5 formed in the outer wall 6, a box-shaped groove part 15 formed at a lower end of the sloped ceiling 2 along the outer wall 6 and having a lower opening 14 opened downward, and an attachment part 17 provided inside the groove part 15 and to which an upper end part of a light shielding material 16 that shields light incident on the opening part 5 is attached, wherein the groove part 15 is a ceiling-embedded type embedded in the sloped ceiling 2, and a lower end of a side plate of the groove part 15 on a side opposite to the opening part 5 is lower than a height of a lower surface of a frame 23 on an upper side of the opening part 5.

The system includes a storm shutter integrated into a window or door that is installed as a single unit. The storm shutter is made of an aluminum extrusion material that is resistant to hurricane impact, including impact from projectiles. The storm shutter can receive service or maintenance on location, wherein the storm shutter can be repaired or serviced, from inside the building it is installed, without the need to uninstall the system. The system provides for multiple configurations of doors and fixed or operable windows.

A storm shutter system for integration into a window or door frame is disclosed, comprising a shutter frame including vertical and horizontal aluminum tube frames, an aluminum box recessed within the window or door opening, a rod for rolling and storing the storm shutter, one or more shutter tracks guiding the shutter between open and closed positions, and a roll-up mechanism operably connected to the rod. The aluminum box includes a hood defining an interior space with a bottom opening for shutter access, and is recessed to maintain a flat exterior surface. The storm shutter is configured to roll onto the rod and unroll downward along the shutter tracks, while the roll-up mechanism drives movement of the shutter. The system provides secure, concealed storage of the shutter, reduces visual impact on building exteriors, and enables smooth operation between open and closed positions.
