A method of securely opening a door on public transportation that includes: providing a train, bus or public transportation vehicle having an outer shell and an inner passenger compartment; providing at least one door having an outer surface, an inner surface, a top, a bottom and two sides, wherein the door slides to open so that passengers can enter or exit the inner passenger compartment; providing a door assembly kit, the kit comprising a C-shaped rail and a coupling component; installing the C-shaped rail to the outer shell of the vehicle; installing the coupling component to the inner surface of the door, opening the door; and mating or engaging the coupling component with the C-shaped rail in a slideable manner.

A door closing apparatus includes a first rotary electric motor that is configured to rotate a first pinion to open and close a first door body; and a second rotary electric motor that is provided separately from the first rotary electric motor and configured to rotate a second pinion to open and close a second door body.

The invention relates to a transmission for a boarding system for a rail vehicle, in which the transmission comprises a linearly movable drive shaft for an element of the boarding system, the drive shaft comprising a straight drive region and a curved locking region adjacent thereto, a drive wheel arranged at a distance from the drive shaft, a step-up gear that can move on a circular path around the drive wheel and is coupled to the drive wheel and the drive shaft, and an abutment device for defining a range of movement of the step-up gear between a drive position in the drive region and a locking position in the locking region.

A door opening/closing device includes: an opening/closing bar attached to a door, which is actuated by a motor and is used for opening and closing the door; a door closing state detecting part configured to detect whether the door is in a closed state; a locking device configured to lock and unlock the door; a lock pin capable of being moved to a locked position or an unlocked position by the locking device; an engaging member attached to the opening/closing bar, which includes an engaging part configured to engage with the lock pin moved to the locked position; a first spring provided between the opening/closing bar and the engaging member; and a locking control unit configured to cause the locking device to lock the door when the closed state is detected by the door closing state detecting part.

A door control device includes: an electric motor control unit configured to drive, in response to a closing command for closing a door that is driven to be opened and closed by an electric motor, the electric motor; a door closed state detection unit configured to detect a closed state of the door; and a lock command output unit configured to output a lock command to lock a locking device of the door, upon the closed state being detected when a predetermined waiting time has passed after the electric motor was driven by the electric motor control unit in response to the closing command and the closed state was detected by the door closed state detection unit.

The invention relates to a device for sealing at least one door leaf for a rail vehicle said device having at least one sliding element which is designed to move the door leaf in a z direction of the rail vehicle when it is close to a closed position in order to force a sealing element of the door leaf against a sealing counter-element of a portal of the rail vehicle.

A plug door opening-closing apparatus, which is adapted for use with a vehicle having a vehicle front-rear direction and a vehicle width direction, includes a door hanger configured to be coupled to a door panel of the vehicle, a movable guide configured to guide movement of the door hanger in the front-rear direction and move in the width direction, a guide support member that guides movement of the movable guide in the width direction, and an interlock mechanism mechanically connected to the movable guide.

A door operator system for moving a door of a transit vehicle between open and closed positions includes a track defined in a base, the track having a curved portion at an end thereof; a drive bracket configured to suspend the door from the base, the drive bracket being slidably movable along the track between an open position and a closed position adjacent to the curved portion; a drive mechanism configured to cause movement of the drive bracket between the open and closed positions; and a locking system configured to retain the drive bracket in the closed position. When the drive bracket is in the closed position, the curved portion engages a cam follower of the locking system to retain the cam follower in a locked position that is overcenter with respect to a plane perpendicular to the track and a plane parallel to the track.

Device for guiding a door element, for example, a sliding door for a passenger transport vehicle, has a first and a second guiding profiled element, wherein the two guiding profiled elements are arranged parallel to each other at a distance from each other, and three guiding elements in total, by means of which the door element is guidably connected to the two guiding profiled elements, wherein two of the guiding elements are guidably arranged on the first guiding profiled element and one of the guiding elements is guidably arranged on the second guiding profiled element.

A mechanism for operating a discharge gate assembly mounted on a railcar. The gate assembly including a frame defining a discharge opening, a door slidably positioned on the frame for a generally horizontal range of movements between a closed position and an open position. An operating shaft assembly is mounted on the frame for rotation about a fixed axis and is operably coupled to the door such that the door moves in response to rotation of the operating shaft assembly. The mechanism for operating the discharge gate assembly includes a mount carried by and with the railcar and an actuator carried by the mount outside a range of travel of the slidable door. A force transfer mechanism is operated by the actuator for rotating the operating shaft assembly to slidably move the door between the closed and open positions in response to operation of the actuator.
