A power latch and presenter assembly for latching and releasing a closure panel and for moving the closure panel from a closed position to a presented position includes a ratchet moveable between a striker capture position and a striker release position. A pawl is configured for movement between a ratchet holding position, whereat the pawl maintains the ratchet in the striker capture position and a ratchet releasing position. A power release actuator is configured to move the pawl from the ratchet holding position to the ratchet releasing position and to move a presenter arm between a non-deployed position, whereat the presenter arm is spaced from the striker, to a deployed position, whereat the presenter arm engages the striker to move the closure panel from the closed position to the presented position. A power presenter actuator is configured to move the presenter arm from the non-deployed position to the deployed position.

Door operator systems include the use of an adaptor. The adaptor may be utilized to operatively couple separate door operator assemblies together in a double door operator system. The adaptor includes control components (e.g., switches, buttons, toggles, or levers) that are used to turn the door operator system on and off. While the adaptor may be used to operatively couple two separate door operator assemblies together to form a double door operator system, the adaptor may also be used within a single door operator system. Furthermore, with respect to double door operator systems, the system may also utilize a back plate assembly formed from two or more separate back plates (e.g., two or more back plate portions).

A sliding door module includes a resin base coupled to an inner panel of a sliding door, a window glass lifting/lowering device that lifts and lowers a window glass, and a door movement device that moves the sliding door. The window glass lifting/lowering device and the door movement device are coupled to the base.

A modular garage door opener system and method including a garage door opener having a motor that is configured to be coupled to a garage door to open and close the garage door. The garage door opener includes a first accessory port including a first accessory mounting interface and a second accessory port disposed on the garage door opener including a second accessory mounting interface. An accessory device including a first mounting interface engages the first accessory mounting interface to couple the accessory device to the first accessory port. The accessory device may be disengaged from the first accessory mounting interface and then engage the second accessory mounting interface to couple the accessory device to the second accessory port. Additionally, a second accessory device may engage the first accessory port after disengagement of the accessory device.

A vehicle includes a sidewall, a first door moveable between an opened position and a closed position, a second door moveable between an opened position and a closed position, a first track secured to the sidewall and a second track secured to the sidewall. A first roller is connected to the first door and is moveable along the first track as the first door moves between the opened position and the closed position. A second roller is connected to the second door and is movable along the second track to the first track and along the first track to the second track as the second door is moved between the opened position and the closed position.

A carrier module including a pair of carrier members operably coupled to one another via at least one cable is provided. The carrier members are configured for substantially free movement relative to one another to facilitate installation of the carrier members into an internal door cavity through an opening formed in the inner panel, wherein at least one of the carrier members is adjustable along at least one of cross-vehicle, aft/forward, and up/down directions.

A door assembly, with at least one vehicle door, a carrier component, which is provided in the vehicle door and carries at least one functional component of the vehicle door, a window pane, which is adjustable in relation to the carrier component, for a window opening on the vehicle door, a window-side receiver unit for the wireless reception of energy and/or data, and a carrier-component-side transmitter unit for the wireless transmission of energy and/or data to the window-side receiver unit.

Door operator systems are described herein that include the use of an adaptor. It should be understood that the adaptor may be utilized in order to operatively couple separate door operator assemblies together in a double door operator system. The adaptor may include control components (e.g., switches, buttons, toggles, levers, or the like) that are used to turn the door operator system on and off. While the adaptor may be used to operatively couple two separate door operator assemblies together to form a double door operator system, the adaptor may also be used within a single door operator system. Furthermore, with respect to double door operator systems, the system may also utilize a back plate assembly comprising two or more separate back plates (e.g., two or more back plate portions).

A dampened hinge assembly has a male leaf and a female leaf. The female leaf has spaced apart first and second end barrels coaxially rotating with respect to a central barrel of the male leaf therebetween. An axial shaft is fixed to the second end barrel of the female leaf at a proximal end of the axial shaft. The axial shaft has a distal helicoidally threaded spindle. A compression gear having a helicoidally threaded bore matching the helicoidal thread of the spindle displaces towards the first end barrel when the leaves move into alignment and towards the second end barrel when the leaves move out of alignment. The dampened hinge assembly may be reconfigured to provide soft closure, end-of-range soft closure and/or backcheck damping.

A guide system for guiding a furniture door, in particular a folding door or folding-sliding door, relative to a fixed furniture part includes a first guide rail and a running carriage which can be connected to the furniture door and which has a rolling body via which the running carriage is movably mounted on the first guide rail. The first guide rail has a running surface for the rolling body of the running carriage, and the first guide rail is assembled in the longitudinal direction from a first rail piece and one second rail piece. The two rail pieces can be releasably connected via a connecting piece on which there is formed a portion of the running surface for the rolling body of the running carriage.
