CABLE RESTRAINT BRACKET OF AN ARCHITECTURAL COVERING ASSEMBLY
A static mitigation end cap, for an architectural covering is provided The covering may include a head rail having an end cap. The end cap may include housing extending along a longitudinal length of the head rail and defining a chamber, The end cap may include a printed circuit board received within the chamber arid configured to control a motor assembly operatively connected to the at least one end cap. The and cap may include an actuation member slidably coupled with the end cap for selective engagement with the printed circuit board.
MULTI-SEGMENT RETRACTABLE CURTAIN WITH UNIVERSAL CONNECTOR
A multi-curtain assembly has curtain segments of a retractable curtain, the curtain segments having leading edges affixed to a bottom bar and extending between opened and closed positions by winding on and unwinding from a barrel assembly, each curtain segment being optionally connectable to the other curtain segment adjacent thereto by a fastener at respective adjacent edges of each curtain segment during unwinding. The multi-curtain assembly includes: a motor driving the barrel assembly of a first curtain segment, adjacent and further curtain segments meeting one another at an interface angle; and at least one curtain driving interface that passes along a rotational barrel driving force from the barrel assembly of the first one of the plurality of curtain segments. The driving interface being an interface for angle of 90 degrees, of less than 90 degrees, or greater than 90 degrees, or an interface for barrel assemblies at different heights.
Mounting bracket lock
A mounting bracket lock may be configured to secure the mounting bracket of a window treatment housing to a rail of the housing. The mounting bracket lock may be slidably attachable to the rail and, when in a locked position, may prevent the mounting bracket from detaching from the rail. The mounting bracket lock may include a body that is mountable to the rail. The body may include a first portion that slidably attaches to the rail, and a second portion that receives a portion of the rail and a portion of the mounting bracket, thereby securing the mounting bracket in a locked position relative to the rail. The body of the mounting bracket lock may define one or more projections that extend therefrom, and that engage in a friction fit between corresponding surfaces of the mounting bracket when the mounting bracket lock is in the locked position.

ROLL-UP DOOR AND SYSTEM INCLUDING SAME
A roll-up door system including a hood assembly, an axle-drive assembly extending through the hood assembly, and a roll-up door coupled to the axle-drive assembly is disclosed. The hood assembly comprises a first end panel, a second end panel, and support angles coupled to the first end panel and the second end panel. The axle-drive assembly is rotatable relative to the hood assembly to transition the roll-up door between a stored state in which the roll-up door is wound around the axle-drive assembly within the hood assembly and a deployed state in which the roll-up door extends outside of the hood assembly.

Deployable Shell Roll-up Door
Two embodiments of a roll-up door system, based on deployable shell designs, are disclosed. Each embodiment consists of: an axle providing continuity to the embodiment, a door panel assembly, two mounting and support assemblies, and two door alignment and support tracks. Each embodiment has the following attributes: large lateral load strength to weight ratio, good natural heat flow insulation, weather tightness and, with proper jamb seals, differential pressure boundary capability.
SELF-SEALING MULTI-SEGMENT RETRACTABLE FIRE CURTAIN
A multi-curtain assembly includes: first and second curtain segments, each having a leading edge and side edge; an edge fastener having first and second fastener portions proximate the side edge of the first and second curtain segments, respectively, the first fastener portion of the first curtain segment being connectable to the second fastener portion of the second curtain segment to produce a seam as the curtain segments are moved to their closed positions; a motor driving one or more of the barrel assemblies; a synchronizing mechanism synchronizing the barrel assemblies. An overlap fastener, arranged proximate edges of the curtain segments in an overlap region, has aligning portions that align as the side edges are brought into alignment by the edge fastener, to mask at least one side of the fastener seam as the fastener portions are connected to each other.
