A door actuator for opening and/or closing a door, includes a fluid housing with an inner compartment, which is filled with fluid, in particular hydraulic oil, a fluid housing opening in the fluid housing for draining the fluid at thermal overload, a thermally activatable valve for opening, which closes the fluid housing opening, and a collecting device, which is disposed outside the fluid housing opposite the fluid housing opening, forms a collecting space for the fluid, is open towards the fluid housing opening, and includes at least one drain opening for draining the fluid from the collecting space.

A door system includes a header having a guide rail that has a central portion having a notch. A panel hanger is slidably coupled to the header. A door panel has a handle end portion releasably coupled to the panel hanger and a pivot end portion pivotably coupled to the panel hanger. The panel hanger and the door panel slide in unison between a closed position and a fully open position along a longitudinal plane. An interlock plate is positioned to extend upwardly from the door panel, and has a downwardly extending guide slot that slidably receives the guide rail of the header. When the door panel is in the fully open position, the interlock plate is aligned with the notch of the guide rail of the header in a direction orthogonal to the longitudinal plane to facilitate a pivoting of the door panel away from the longitudinal plane.

A temperature activated door spring device includes a spring having a coil with a contiguous upper arm and lower arm. The coil includes an inner hinge pin hole and has a circumferential edge sized to mount on the top of a hinge knuckle. A collar is affixed within the inner hinge pin hole wherein the inner hinge pin hole is encompassed by the collar sized to accept an inserted hinge pin. A pellet hole is located proximate an extended end of the upper arm, wherein the pellet hole is sized to accept a fusible pellet. An upper portion of the pellet hole traverses through the upper arm and a lower portion of the pellet hole traverses through the lower arm so that when a fusible pellet is inserted into the pellet hole it holds the upper arm and the lower arm together in a spring loaded position.

A thermally releasable fastening element, in particular for fastening a door actuator, includes a base body, which is designed to be inserted into a recess or a number of aligned recesses, a core inserted into the base body, at least partially made of a shape memory material, wherein the base body has an unstable area, which is stabilized by the core, and wherein the core is designed to withdraw at least partially from the unstable area upon thermal activation of the shape memory material.

In one or more arrangements, a system is presented for preventing the spread of fire through a conveyor opening in a fire wall. In one or more arrangements, a fire door system is connected to the fire wall and/or conveyor proximate to the conveyor opening. The fire door system includes a door assembly, a door frame assembly, and an actuator. The door frame assembly is connected to the fire wall, covers portions of the opening below the conveyor and between belts of the conveyor, and forms a door opening above the conveyor. The door assembly is configured to move between a closed position, where door assembly covers the door opening, and an open position, where the door assembly at least partially uncovers the door opening. The actuator is configured to cause the door to be moved to the closed position in response to fire.

An apparatus comprises a base plate configured to be coupled to a door, the door configured to be positioned in an open position and a closed position; a closing mechanism coupled to the base plate and configured to be coupled to a hinge of the door and having an unprimed state and a primed state, the closing mechanism configured to be transitioned between the unprimed state and the primed state by a user; wherein in the unprimed state the closing mechanism is decoupled from operation of the door; and in the primed state the closing mechanism is configured to move the door into the closed position responsive to receipt of a signal, and the closing mechanism is configured to allow movement of the door between the open position and the closed position in absence of the signal.

Disclosed is a panic bar with a door closer, the panic bar having a locking device installed at a front end of a case and a door closer provided at a rear end of the case. The locking device is released upon pushing of the push bar provided in the case. An air cylinder is installed inside the case. A guide member is installed in one side of the air cylinder and a cylinder sealing cap is installed in the other side of the air cylinder. One side of a piston rod having a piston for compressing and expanding air inside the air cylinder passes through the guide member. A spring disposed between the piston and the guide member is installed on the piston rod.

A closure may include a door configured to seal an opening. The door may include a section with an internal cavity. The closure may also include a core within a first portion of the internal cavity of the section. The core may be configured to expand from a relaxed state to an expanded state and provide a seal between the door and an edge of the opening when the core is in the expanded state.

The invention relates to a device for releasing and resetting a fire and smoke barrier. In a normal use state, a clutch member is held by an electromagnetic attraction unit, so that a push rod ejecting module cannot be actuated, and a door operator is controlled by a clutch module thereof. Upon power failure, for example upon an accident, the clutch member is released by the electromagnetic attraction unit, and a barrier release member is activated by the push rod ejecting module so as to shut the fire and smoke barrier. Upon power restoration, the clutch member is attracted and held by the electromagnetic attraction unit, and the push rod ejecting module is reset by a push rod resetting module. At the same time, the barrier release member is also reset.

A fire door system is disclosed herein. The fire door system comprises a door and a door control unit coupled to the door. A plurality of sensors is configured on the door or adjacent the door. A controller is coupled to the door control unit and the plurality of sensors. The controller facilitates activation of the motorized door unit for maintaining the door in a closed position subsequent to sensing of a surrounding temperature by the plurality of sensors, wherein the surrounding temperature is greater than a threshold temperature.
