A security door configured to provide controlled access through a doorway wherein the security door of the present invention includes all elements to offer a touch-less entry and further provide compliance with building codes and visual surveillance. The security door of the present invention includes a door member being hingedly mounted on a doorway. The door member includes an integrally mounted controller that is operably coupled to a communications network via a network module and communications cable. The controller is operably coupled to a card scanner module and a switch module that operate to provide verification of an individual and move the door member to an open position. The door member further includes an integrally mounted power supply and at least one camera module wherein the camera module is operable to capture photographic images. A light module and egress module are integrally mounted to the door member.

A method of operating an entry system of a motor vehicle includes monitoring a battery voltage and the entry system continuously using a control circuit of the latch assembly in a non-emergency mode. Power is provided to the control circuit in the event of a loss of power from a main power source using a backup energy source of the control circuit. The method includes transitioning to an emergency mode in response to determining loss of power from the main power source or failure of the component of the entry system. An actuation group associated with the latch assembly is operated with the control circuit using power from the backup energy source of the control circuit in response to determining that actuation from a plurality of pins of a mechanical emergency switch assembly indicates a command from a user to unlatch the closure member in the emergency mode.

Cabinets, methods for making cabinets, and aircraft including cabinets are provided. In one example, a cabinet includes a cabinet body that at least partially surrounds a cabinet space and that defines a cabinet opening that allows access to the cabinet space. A cabinet door at least partially covers the cabinet opening when in a closed position and extends upward from a lower edge portion to an upper edge portion. The cabinet door has an outer exposed surface facing generally in a first direction away from the cabinet space when in the closed position. The cabinet door is operatively coupled to the cabinet body for opening from the closed position to an open position including the lower edge portion moving generally upward and the upper edge portion moving generally upward and towards the first direction to expose the cabinet opening.

The present disclosure is directed generally to powered trailer systems and, more particularly, to powered trailer systems for opening and closing trailer doors at, e.g., a vehicle loading dock, and to vehicle and/or trailer power delivery and charging systems. A powered trailer door operating system can include a guide track having a lower guide track portion and an upper guide track portion; a drive support coupled to the upper guide track portion having a drive shaft positioned within a central cavity; and a carriage slidingly coupled to the drive support and operably coupled to the trailer door. The carriage can be operably engaged with the drive shaft through the slot such that rotation of the drive shaft causes the carriage to translate along the drive support, thereby moving the trailer door between the open and closed positions.

A door drive for arrangement on or in connection with a door system, wherein at least one leaf element of the door system is movable, including a motor unit with a housing, in which a stator is stationarily received, and wherein a rotor is arranged so as to be rotationally-movable in the housing and includes an output shaft, wherein the output shaft can be brought into operative connection in a driving manner with the leaf element. The motor unit has the basic shape of a cuboid, which is formed at least by two housing halves connected to each other.

A door safety system (3) for a door (2), having a safety component (10) arranged on a movable door element (4, 4a, 4b) of the door (2) and a supply component (11) arranged on a stationary door frame (5) of the door (2) for supplying energy to the safety component (10). The safety component (10) has an electric energy store (12) which is designed to autonomously supply electric energy to the safety component (10) when the door (2) is open, and the safety component (10) and the supply component (11) are designed to electrically charge the electric energy store (12) of the safety component (10) when the door (2) is closed.

A cinching system includes: a profile configured to determine a first time series of target values for cinching a closure closed; an adjustment module configured to determine an adjustment value based on at least one operating parameter; an adjusting module configured to generate a second time series of target values for cinching of the closure by adjusting at least one of the target values of the first time series based on the adjustment value; and a power control module configured to: apply power to a cinching motor when the closure is partially closed, where the cinching motor is configured to cinch and fully close the closure; and based on a comparison of a measured value of the cinching motor and one of the target values of the second time series, selectively one of: decrease power applied to the cinching motor; and disconnect the cinching motor from power.

The present invention provides an automatic animal door system. The automatic animal door system includes an animal door module, a linear motor driver and a control module. The animal door module includes a door and a frame having an opening, and the door is lively connected with the frame and configured to move between a closed position covering the opening and an open position away from the opening. The linear motor driver is connected with the door and configured to drive the door move between the closed position and the open position. The control module is electrically connected the linear motor driver and includes a processor and a non-volatile memory storing a programmed set of instructions. The processor executes the programmed set of instructions to control the linear motor driver open or close the door.

Systems and methods are provided for protecting a door system from damage by a back electromotive force (EMF) voltage generated when a door coupled to a door actuator is manually closed. The door system may include a driver configured to drive the door actuator to move the door, and a back EMF protection circuit. The back EMF protection circuit detects a back EMF voltage generated by the door actuator when the door is moved, and determines whether the back EMF voltage exceeds an overvoltage threshold. In response to determining that the back EMF voltage exceeds the overvoltage threshold, the back EMF protection circuit causes the driver to transition to an enabled state to short the back EMF voltage to ground.

A retrofit module configured for use with a door closer having a pinion. The retrofit module generally includes a case, an output shaft, a motor, and a control assembly. The output shaft is rotatably mounted in the case, and is configured for rotational coupling with the pinion. The motor is mounted to the case, and is operable to rotate the output shaft in a door-opening direction. The control assembly is mounted to the case, and is configured to operate the motor to drive the output shaft in the door-opening direction in response to an actuating signal.
