A closure system for a motor vehicle cargo bed includes a closure panel having a plurality of slats moveable between a deployed position and a retracted position, with each adjacent pair of the slats being pivotably connected to one another by a hinge unit for pivotal movement of the adjacent slats about a hinge axis. First and second guide track units are configured to be mounted to one side of the cargo bed to extend adjacent opposite side edge portions of the closure panel. A plurality of roller units, each having first and second rollers, are supported along the opposite side edge portions of the cover panel for rolling movement along the first and second guide track units, with each roller unit rolling about a roller axis that is coaxially aligned with one of the hinge axes.

A rotatable suspension rail background system with multiple panels is an apparatus that maximizes the amount of background options in a studio area in an indoor or outdoor area for a photoshoot or video shoot. The apparatus includes track system and at least one background assembly. The track system defines a path for each of the plurality of background assemblies and guides each of the at least one background assembly across the studio area. The track system includes an upper main rail, an upper supplementary rail, and an upper raceway. The at least one background assembly provides various visual backgrounds for a photograph or video. More specifically, the apparatus further includes a first background sheet fixed across a first panel face of a support panel of the at least one background assembly. The apparatus further includes a second background sheet fixed across a second panel face of the support panel.

A slide member having a slide surface coated with a lacquer including a resin. The lacquer is in turn at least partly coated with a lipophilic composition coating. The lipophilic composition coating provides a slide layer on the slide member with low friction.

Disclosed herein is a roller assembly for a sliding panel, the roller assembly including at least one roller sub-assembly having at least one roller wheel, the roller sub-assembly comprising at least one pivotal arm and a roller wheel rotatably mounted to the arm, wherein one end of the arm is configured for pivotally attachment to the support to permit the arm and roller wheel to pivot relative to the support in a vertical plane and the opposite end of the arm has resilient suspension means configured to allow resilient pivotal movement of said opposite end relative to the support when a force is applied to the roller wheel.

The invention relates to a linear motor structure for a sliding door, comprising a rotor assembly, wherein the rotor assembly includes a fixed part and a movable part, the fixed part is provided with a permanent magnet, a slot hole is formed in a bottom part of the permanent magnet, the movable part is provided with a telescopic rod that is slidably inserted into the slot hole from one end of the slot hole, and a motion transmission part capable of transmitting a motion of the rotor assembly, and the movable part and the fixed part are fixed by a fastener. The linear motor structure is novel in design, reasonable in structure and favorable in adaptability due to the capability of flexibly adjustment of the rotor assembly according to a width of a door frame.

In at least some implementations, a window assembly for a motor vehicle includes a guide rail having at least one wall that defines at least part of a guide track, a movable pane associated with the guide rail and movable relative to the guide track along a path of movement defined by and between a closed position and a fully open position, and a retainer. The retainer may be coupled to the movable pane and be movable with the movable pane, and be located at least partially within the guide track. The retainer may further include at least one biasing member that is engaged with the wall along the path of movement to limit movement of the retainer relative to the guide rail.

A pocket door system for inhibiting an animal from passing through a doorway includes a door frame is positioned within a wall. A door unit is slidably positioned within the wall. The door unit is biased into a closed position having the door unit extending across the door frame. Thus, the door unit may inhibit an animal from passing through the door frame. The door unit is selectively urged into an open position. Thus, the door unit facilitates the animal to pass through the door frame.

Apparatuses, such as shower door frame kits, for installing sliding shower door assemblies are provided. The apparatuses enable secure and convenient installation of the sliding shower door assemblies, while keeping water that may escape a shower area to a minimum. The apparatuses of the present disclosure also provide for efficient installation of the sliding shower door assemblies that can be completed with a single tool and/or in a single step. The apparatuses for installing sliding shower door assemblies may include one or more of a shower door header, a wall jamb, a shower header retainer, a shower door catcher, a roller assembly, a corner bracket, and a shower threshold.

A profile learning system for cooperative control of a dual actuator applied to opposite sliding doors may include a first position sensor configured to detect a position of a door that operates in a first direction along a rail; a spindle assembly including a spindle that operates in a second direction with respect to the door to prevent the door from rattling; first and second motors engaged to the door and the spindle assembly and configured to provide driving power to the door and the spindle assembly, respectively; a memory unit configured to store the position of the door; and a control unit configured to adjust an output of the second motor configured for a predetermined time period and to determine learning success or learning failure for complete opening or closing of the door based on the position of the door when a stall state is detected due to a difference in stroke between the first motor and the second motor.

A sliding panel system is disclosed. The system includes a fitting assembly designed to fixedly secure a first panel to an elongate rail member, and a carrier assembly designed to moveably secure a second panel to the elongate rail member. The system facilitates the lateral movement of the second panel with respect to the first panel. The carrier assembly includes at least one carrier unit including a housing with an inner volume, at least one roller unit configured in an upper portion of the inner volume, at least one guide member configured in the inner volume, and an opening extending across the front of the housing and adapted to receive a longitudinal portion of the rail member. The at least one roller unit and the at least one guide member are concealed within the housing when the housing is viewed from a perspective perpendicular to the front of the housing.
