A fire damper actuation system in an HVAC system includes a damper system and an actuator system. The damper system includes damper blades rotatable between an open configuration and a closed configuration, a crank arm assembly configured to drive the damper blades, a spring assembly configured to be held in a loaded condition when the damper blades are in the open configuration, a temperature-activated fusible link, and a fusible link arm coupling the temperature-activated fusible link to the crank arm assembly. The actuator system includes a motor and a drive device. The drive device is coupled to the crank arm assembly and the temperature-activated fusible link. Operation of the drive device by the motor between a first end stop location and a second end stop location simultaneously rotates the crank arm assembly and the temperature-activated fusible link to complete a test inspection procedure.

An automatic fire door closing device includes a hydraulic main engine, an arm rod, a rotating shaft, a connecting plate and a clamping device, and further comprises a fire monitoring and response device and a driving device. The driving device includes a linkage rod rotatably connected to the connecting plate, a transmission column rotatably connected to the connecting plate, and a transmission rod fixedly connected to the transmission column, one end of the linkage rod has a hook part for hooking the transmission rod, and the transmission column cooperates with the clamping device, when smoke or open fire is monitored, the hook part of the linkage rod is disengaged from the transmission rod, and the rotation of the transmission column makes the clamping device to release the rotating shaft. The device reduces cost with simple structure, high integration and low installation difficulty.

An automatic door operator (30) for a swing door assembly (10) having a door leaf (14) rotationally supported by a door frame (12) is disclosed. The automatic door operator has a motor (34) for causing opening of the door leaf (14) with respect to the door frame (12), and a controller (31) being configured for performing different functions (60) of the automatic door operator. The controller (31) is configured to detect (42) a movement of the door leaf (14), not caused by the motor (34), identify (44) a predefined movement matching the detected movement, determine (46), among the different functions, a function (61-A, 61-B) being associated with the predefined movement, and perform (48) the determined function.

A vehicle comprising a plurality of walls defining a volume adapted to house passengers and/or merchandise and at least one electric battery pack to supply energy for the operation of the vehicle, said at least one electric battery pack being housed in a respective seat made in at least one of the walls and defining with the latter a housing volume comprising at least one cover configured to assume a first operating position in which the volume communicates with the outside environment and a second operating position in which the volume is isolated from the outside environment; the vehicle comprising security means configured to enable the covers to move from the first operating position to the second operating position when a temperature of the electric battery pack and/or a temperature inside the volume exceed/s a pre-set threshold temperature value.

A compact hinge actuating device comprising at least one hinge comprising at least one hinge plate and at least one knuckle. In one embodiment there is at least one sensor and/or fuse element coupled to said at least one hinge and at least one microprocessor coupled to the at least one hinge. There is also at least one drive coupled to the at least one hinge, wherein when the sensor receives input of a condition, and/or the fuse fails then the drive can be actuated. In the electronic version, the microprocessor reads the input as exceeding a minimum threshold value of a predetermined condition, the microprocessor then triggers the at least one drive to close or open the at least one hinge. In at least one embodiment the drive can be a spring, in another embodiment the drive can be a solenoid.

A door closer assembly includes a door closer without a powered drive for closing a door. The door closer includes an energy accumulator, wherein the energy accumulator is chargeable by manually opening the door and wherein the energy accumulator discharges for closing the door. A sensor unit is also included for detecting an angle information with regard to the opening angle of the door.
