Door assembly for an electromagnetic shielded enclosure
A door assembly for an electromagnetic shielded enclosure includes a metal door frame for defining a passageway into the enclosure and a door for selectively enclosing the passageway. The door includes a door leaf pivotally coupled to the frame. A set of radio frequency (RF) seals is connected to the exposed peripheral edge of a conductive plate in the door leaf. Each RF seal includes a resilient movable finger which overlies a U-shaped bracket mounted along the outer edge of the door leaf. A plurality of air cylinders is mounted within each bracket and is designed to urge the resilient finger of each RF seal into contact with the door frame.
Extruded frame system for glazing
A frame system for securing a glazing unit to a window portal includes an elongated primary mount extrusion, an elongated mount stop extrusion, an elongated first gasket, an elongated second gasket and a structural sealant. The primary mount extrusion is secured to the window portal. A mount stop extrusion engages the primary mount extrusion with a pair of ratcheting members. The first gasket and the second gasket define a passage therebetween and the passage has a width so that the glazing unit fits therein. A structural sealant is disposed so as to affix the glazing unit to an inner upper surface of the primary mount extrusion.

DOOR FOR MOBILE LIVING QUARTERS
A door is assembled from a plurality of straight lengths of extrusion, with the lengths of extrusion mated with corners at the top and bottom. The top corners are curved and interference fit to terminal ends of the top and side extrusions. The top and side extrusions have an opening into a cavity. As assembled, a continuous screen groove extends through the corners from the top, bottom, and side extrusions. The door includes transverse extrusions having an enclosed cross-sectional profile that are affixed to the side extrusions with alignment ends. The bottom corners interference fit to terminal ends of bottom extrusions and side extrusions.

DOOR ASSEMBLY FOR AN ELECTROMAGNETIC SHIELDED ENCLOSURE
A door assembly for an electromagnetic shielded enclosure includes a metal door frame for defining a passageway into the enclosure and a door for selectively enclosing the passageway. The door includes a door leaf pivotally coupled to the frame. A set of radio frequency (RF) seals is connected to the exposed peripheral edge of a conductive plate in the door leaf. Each RF seal includes a resilient movable finger which overlies a U-shaped bracket mounted along the outer edge of the door leaf. A plurality of air cylinders is mounted within each bracket and is designed to urge the resilient finger of each RF seal into contact with the door frame. By integrating the RF seal and its related mechanical components into the door, the passageway into the enclosure is rendered less obtrusive. Additionally, the use of multiple air cylinders to actuate each RF seal creates operational redundancy.
Profile for window, door, facade and cladding elements
A profile for window, door, facade or cladding elements is disclosed, which comprises a profile body (2) made from thermoplastic material and extending in a longitudinal direction (z) with an essentially constant cross-section (x-y) along the longitudinal direction (z) and having at least one outer surface (2a), and a inorganic containing layer (4) deposited on at least part of the at least one outer surface (2a), wherein the thermoplastic material comprises at least one thermoplastic selected from the group containing polyamide, polyethylene, polybutylene terephthalate, acrylonitrile styrene acrylate, wherein the inorganic containing layer (4) is deposited directly on the profile body (2) using a cold spray technology, and wherein the inorganic containing layer (4) has a thickness in the range from 30 μm to 450 μm.

DEVICE FOR GENERATING ELECTRICITY
The present disclosure provides a device for generating electricity. The device comprises first and third panels that are each at least partially transmissive for visible light and are spaced apart from each other. The first panel defines a light receiving surface. The device further comprises first and second photovoltaic elements. The first photovoltaic element is arranged in a first orientation with respect to the light receiving surface and the second photovoltaic element being arranged in a second orientation that is different to both the orientation of the first photovoltaic element and the orientation of the light receiving surface. The first photovoltaic element and the second photovoltaic element are located within a projection of the circumference of the first panel in a direction along a surface normal of the first panel. The device further comprises a support for supporting portions of the device. The support has a channel that is outwardly open at an edge portion of the device. The third panel, the first photovoltaic element and the second photovoltaic element are located within the projection of the circumference of the first panel in a direction along a surface normal of the first panel.
Building systems and methods for installing building systems relative to building openings
Building systems including a frame with a horizontal member from which first and second vertical bars downwardly extend and a panel attached to the frame. The building systems include at least one of an integrated fastener cover that is moveable to a closed position that covers a portion of a fastener, a gusset assembly with a junction cover positioned at a corner junction between two adjacent portions of a panel, and hinge assemblies that reduce the sagging of a panel, such as a door.
