Aircraft having Versatile Door Systems
A versatile door system for an aircraft includes forward and aft door assemblies. The forward door assembly includes a forward hingeable door hingeably coupled to the airframe proximate a forward location of an aircraft opening and a forward slidable door slidably coupled to the forward hingeable door. The aft door assembly includes an aft hingeable door hingeably coupled to the airframe proximate an aft location of the aircraft opening and an aft slidable door slidably coupled to the aft hingeable door. In a closed configuration, the forward hingeable door, the forward slidable door, the aft hingeable door and the aft slidable door are securably disposed within the aircraft opening. In operation, the forward hingeable door, the forward slidable door, the aft hingeable door and the aft slidable door are individually operable to collectively provide access to a selectable width of the aircraft opening.
SLIDING-TYPE SEALING ASSEMBLY FOR DOOR OF VEHICLE
A sliding-type sealing assembly for a door of a vehicle is applied to an opposite-type swing door. The sealing assembly air-tight seals a rear end of a front door of the vehicle and a front end of a rear door of the vehicle. A sealing slider is installed to a first door of the rear end of the front door and the front end of the rear door slidably in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, and the sealing slider is slid to be spaced apart from a second door of the rear end of the front door and the front end of the rear door to avoid overlap with the second door when the first door is opened, and is drawn out to be in abutting contact with the second door when the first door is closed.
Sealing Assembly for Vehicle Door
A sealing assembly for a vehicle door may include a center bar rotatably installed on at least any one of a rear end of a front door and a front end of a rear door; a sealing member for sealing between the center bar and the rear end of the front door and between the center bar and the front end of the rear door; and an interlocking member for rotating the center bar in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of a door, among the front door and the rear door, on which the center bar has been installed so that the center bar is spaced apart from a door on which the center bar has not been installed when the door is opened or is in close contact therewith when the door is closed, when the door on which the center bar has been installed is opened or closed.
DOOR SEALING AND TIMING MECHANISM FOR USE IN COACH DOOR CONFIGURATION FOR A VEHICLE
A vehicle includes a body having an uninterrupted side aperture that provides access to an interior passenger cabin. A front door is hingedly attached at a forward edge of the uninterrupted side aperture. The front door is selectively operable between front open and front closed positions. A rear door is hingedly attached at a rearward edge of the uninterrupted side aperture. The rear door is selectively operable between rear open and rear closed positions. A latching assembly is at least partially positioned within the body and configured to receive the front door in the front closed position and the rear door in the rear closed position. A sealing assembly is defined between a forward seal of the rear door and a rearward seal of the front door. The forward and rearward seals engage one another in a fully-closed position.
Impact Beam with Bent Structure and Bending Apparatus
An impact beam having a bent structure is provided. The impact beam is mounted at a lateral portion of each door in a vertical direction of a vehicle body and supports the door in the vertical direction. An upper end of the impact beam extends to support a roof panel and a lower end of the impact beam extends to a lower roller mounting portion. The impact beam is bent in an L shape and a T shape based on a curvature of the door.
B-Pillarless Opposite Sliding Door
Embodiments provide a B-pillarless opposite sliding door in which a hook fastening means is used instead of an upper latch to be installed at an upper end of the B pillarless opposite sliding door. An upper end of a door B-pillar beam, which serves to support a B-pillar, can fastened to a roof part of a vehicle body to ensure a ceiling strength performance when the hook fastening means is applied.
COMMUNICATION SEAT-TYPE VEHICLE
A vehicle including a front wall to form a cabin space to accommodate passengers, communication seats for the passengers seated thereon to talk face-to-face, and front and rear wheels. Front ends of upper and lower portions of the front wall are positioned forward of a rear end of an intermediate portion of the front wall. The front wall includes a front face-up surface, of which a front end is not forward of the front end of the lower portion of the front wall, and is not rearward of front ends of the front wheels, and of which a rear end is not forward of the front end of the upper portion of the front wall, and is not rearward of the rear end of the intermediate portion of the front wall. A front end of an upper portion of the cabin space is positioned forward of a front end of the intermediate portion of the cabin space.
Operating mechanism for rear hinged fully sealed independent side operating doors
A vehicle door includes a door panel slidably operable between a secured position within a door aperture and a staging position partially distal from the door aperture. A latch is engaged with a striker path during operation of the door panel between the secured and staging positions, and is selectively disengaged from the striker path to define open and closed positions of the door panel when the door panel is in the staging position.
Curtain airbag device mounting structure and curtain airbag deployment method
A curtain airbag device mounting structure includes: a first pillar forming a part of a front pillar and extends substantially along a vehicle height direction; a second pillar forming another part of the front pillar, the second pillar being disposed on a rear side of a vehicle relative to the first pillar at a predetermined distance from the first pillar and extending substantially along the vehicle height direction; a transparent member bridged between the first pillar and the second pillar; and a curtain airbag device including a curtain airbag stored along a roof side rail and the second pillar, the curtain airbag being configured to inflate and deploy in a curtain-like fashion over a side portion of a cabin of the vehicle in case of a collision of the vehicle.
REINFORCEMENT STRUCTURE FOR B-PILLARLESS OPPOSITE SLIDING DOORS
A rigidity reinforcing structure for B-pillarless opposite sliding doors may include a column impact beam which is vertically mounted at one side of the door to support the door in an up-down direction of a vehicle; a center rail which is horizontally mounted at a center portion of the door to support the door in a front-rear direction of the vehicle and allows the door to slide; and a lower impact beam which is horizontally mounted at a lower side of the door to support the door in the front-rear rear direction and has one end portion where an intersection portion between the lower impact beam and the column impact beam is formed.
