This invention provides sliding door enclosure assemblies for a framework structure, which uniquely enables equal lateral displacement of sliding doors, with the minimal engagement of a single door alone. More specifically, the sliding door enclosure assemblies of this invention comprise paired rotatable sliding doors, paired rotatable leaders, paired rotating conveyors, which conveyors are advanced by the paired rotatable leaders, guides which further comprise attachment regions to attach the paired rotatable sliding doors to the paired rotating conveyors and at least one interlocking rotatable movement regulator set of two elements, which rotate in equal and opposing directions, so that paired rotatable leaders operationally connected thereby promote lateral displacement of operationally connected rotatable sliding doors about the framework structure.

The invention relates to a device for automatically opening or closing a window or a door and system and method for controlling and managing indoor air quality via the Internet. The system monitors indoor air parameters through sensors, and when these parameters reach predefined user thresholds, provides room ventilation through natural air convection by automated opening/closing of doors and/or windows. The automatic opening/closing device (26) consists of a housing with means for fixed attachment to a window or a door. The housing hosts: a stepper motor (16) and a means for transforming the rotary motion into a linear motion (9, 13) which drives an extended flexible connection (10, 11). The flexible connection (10, 11) pushes or pulls a support element (1) which is mounted on a window/door, thereby opening the window or door.

An actuator includes first and second structural units arranged independently of one another. An engagement means is arranged in the first structural unit. A drive motor is in driving relationship to the engagement means and arranged in the first structural unit. An anti-backbend chain is in engagement with the engagement means, and a chain depot is arranged in the second structural unit.

A confinement cabin has a load-bearing structure, confinement walls connected to the load-bearing structure to delimit an inner space of the cabin, an access opening to the inner space, and a door connected to the load-bearing structure to close the access opening. The door is movable in opening and closing with a pivoting-tilting movement and has a movable arm which at a first end is rotationally connected to the load-bearing structure to rotate around a hinging axis, and a closing panel rotationally connected to a second end of the movable arm to rotate around a tilting axis. Rotation of the panel around the tilting axis is synchronized with rotation of the movable arm around the hinging axis by an elastic transmission system between a first pulley coaxial to the hinging axis and a second pulley coaxial to the tilting axis. Rotation of the panel around the tilting axis is in the opposite direction to rotation of the movable arm around the hinging axis.

The present invention relates to a door operation system (1) for opening and closing an opening (2) comprising: a door frame (3) comprising a first frame section (4) at a first side (5) of the opening (2) and a second frame section (6) at a second side (7) of the opening (2); a door (8) arranged to be moved between a closed (C) and an open (0) position, the door (8) being movably connected to the door frame (3); a drive unit (10) mounted on the door (8), the drive unit (10) comprising at least one motor (11) arranged to move the door (8) from the closed (C) position to the open (0) position and vice versa, and an elongated transmission member (19) extending along at least one of the first side (5) and second side (7) of the opening (2), wherein the drive unit (10) further comprises a driven transmission member (18) in driving connection with the motor (11), the driven transmission member (18) being movably connected to the elongated transmission member (19) and arranged to interplay with said elongated transmission member (19) for driving the driven transmission member (18) along said elongated transmission member (19) by the elongated transmission member (19) at least partially wrapping around the driven transmission member (18), wherein at least one guide member (92) mounted to the door (8) is arranged to interplay with the elongated transmission member (19) for guiding the elongated transmission member (19) into contact with the driven transmission member (18), wherein the least one guide member (92) comprises a sliding surface (101) on which the elongated transmission member (19) is configured to slide, and wherein the sliding surface (101) has a curvature, which is configured to urge the elongated transmission member (19) to flex and follow the curvature.

An actuator includes first and second structural units arranged independently of one another. An engagement means is arranged in the first structural unit.

A vehicular slider window assembly includes a frame portion having an upper rail and a lower rail, a fixed window panel, and a movable window panel that is movable along the rails between an opened position and a closed position. A drive system is operable to move the movable window panel between the opened position and the closed position. The drive system includes a single flexible drive element that, when the drive system is actuated to move the window panel in one direction, the flexible drive element pulls the movable window panel along the rails, and when the drive system is actuated to move the window panel in the opposite direction, the flexible drive element pushes the movable window panel along the rails. The lower rail includes guide structure that limits flexing of the flexible drive element when the flexible drive element pushes the movable window panel along the rails.
