A rolling shutter driving device includes a motor, a locking assembly and a gearbox. The motor includes a stator and a rotor. The rotor includes a rotary shaft connected to the gearbox. The rotary shaft drives through the gearbox a rolling shutter to extend or retract. The locking assembly includes a brake pad slidingly fitted on the rotary shaft and a rotary member fixedly mounted to the rotary shaft. The brake pad is circumferentially fixed relative to the stator. The brake pad is slidable relative to the rotary shaft so as to be selectively engaged with the rotary member to lock the rotary shaft and hence hold the load in position, or disengaged from the rotary member to unlock the rotary shaft.

A door, in particular a high-speed industrial door, with an intelligent door leaf is disclosed. The door has a door leaf which is guided by lateral guides and covers a door opening, and which has a first and a second side, a driving means for moving the door leaf between an open and a closed position, a door control means for controlling the driving means, as well as an electrically self-sufficient door leaf means arranged in the door leaf. The door control means also has a first communication unit. In addition, the door leaf device comprises at least one sensor unit for detecting at least a physical quantity, an energy converter which converts non-electrical energy into electrical energy, a second communication unit and at least one actuator unit. The first and second communication units communicate wirelessly with each other.

A motor drive unit for driving a motor of a motorized window treatment may comprise software-based and hardware-based implementations of a process for detecting and resolving a stall condition in the motor, where the hardware-based implementation is configured to reduce power delivered to the motor if the software-based implementation has not first reduced the power to the motor. A control circuit may detect a stall condition of the motor, and reduce the power delivered to the motor after a first period of time from first detecting the stall condition. The motor drive unit may comprise a stall prevention circuit configured to reduce the power delivered to the motor after a second period of time (e.g., longer than the first period of time) from determining that a rotational sensing circuit is not generating a sensor signal while the control circuit is generating a drive signal to rotate the motor.

The opening-closing control system includes an outputter that outputs a control signal for controlling an operation of an opening-closing member configured to open and close an opening provided in a first facility, and an obtainer that obtains alert information on an alert from a second facility different from the first facility. Then, the outputter outputs the control signal for controlling the opening or closing of the opening by the opening-closing member based on the information.

The present invention relates to a roller blind and a control device thereof. The control device comprises a reeling mechanism, a solenoid valve, a push mechanism, a front cap, and a damper. After the solenoid valve is energized, the solenoid valve drives the push mechanism to push against the front cap so as to separate the front cap from an engaging portion of the reeling mechanism, and the reeling mechanism is not subject to a resistance of the damper. A curtain fabric is not affected by the resistance of the damper and can be quickly lowered by gravity.
