    摘要: A wireless washroom door control system is disclosed. The door control system comprises a wireless door controller, a touchless switch, an electric strike, a mechanical door opener, an administrative terminal and a touchless emergency button. The wireless door controller includes a power supply and a control module, wherein the control module includes a processor, a memory, a voice prompt module and a timing module. The system may also be used to monitor access to washrooms and provide voice prompts to assist users. The system may be used to retrofit existing washroom doors to provide a means for touchless opening and closing of the washroom door to aid persons with disabilities. A further advantage of the present system is reduced potential for transmission of bacteria or germs from door control surfaces.

    摘要: Provided is a drive device for opening and closing opening/closing body 2 supported by vehicle body 3 in an openable and closable manner. The drive device includes drive device main body 11 and boot 12. Drive device main body 11 is connected to vehicle body 3 and opening/closing body 2, and telescopic. A wire extending from drive device main body 11 passes through the inside of boot 12 including boot main body 31 and fitting part 32. Fitting part 32 is disposed at the end of boot main body 31, fits to boot attachment part 24 of drive device main body 11, and includes flat surface part 52b configured to contact drive device main body 11 when fitting part 32 rotates relative to drive device main body 11.

    摘要: Disclosed herein is an improved hinge assembly for providing soft-closing functionality in a gate. The hinge assembly comprises a mounting element having a top sleeve and a bottom sleeve to receive an elongated hollow cylinder. An actuator is provided on the outer surface of the elongated hollow cylinder. A spring and a tension screw are adapted within the elongated hollow cylinder. The spring is adjusted using the tension screw for altering spring tension, wherein the actuator absorbs an impact of the altering spring tension to thereby facilitate the soft-closing functionality while closing the gate.

    摘要: A method for operating a door system having a door leaf, which is movable by a door actuator, and having a sensor unit, which is arranged at a height above a floor of the door system and with which the approach of a person towards the door leaf is detected by a control unit, includes at least the following steps: determining a direct distance between the sensor unit and the person using the sensor unit; determining a horizontal distance between the sensor unit and the door leaf by a geometric relationship of the person, of the door leaf and of the height of the sensor unit; and determining the probable approach time of the person on the basis of the determined horizontal distance and opening the door leaf. A door system having a control unit may be used to carry out the method.

    摘要: A package delivery system can include an electromechanically operable compartment door installed on a door panel (e.g., garage or front door) at a premises. The system can communicate with a control panel mounted near the door panel, which can be configured to scan package information or receive codes from a delivery person/third party. The control panel can authenticate the package information/codes received from the person before operating the compartment door, providing a secure opening for package delivery. The system can send alerts to the owner of the premises when a package is delivered into the garage. The control panel can store a log of package deliveries and receive package delivery instructions from the premises owner. This package delivery system offers a secure and convenient solution for package delivery, ensuring that packages are delivered safely and efficiently. System lights can indicate the presence of a package within the door panel.

    摘要: Apparatus and methods for assembling, installing, and operating a manually operated gate (e.g., a safety gate) are provided. The manually operated safety gate can include a gate frame and a spring assembly. The gate frame can include a proximal upright member, a distal upright member, an upper arm, and a lower arm. The proximal upright member can be anchored to a stationary surface. The upper arm and lower arm can be pivotably coupled to the proximal upright member and distal upright member to form a parallelogram. The manually operated gate can be configured to pivot between an open position and a closed position at a constant angular velocity. The gate can freely pivot to the closed position from a self-close position. A kit can contain the required structural components and instructions and can be used to assemble the manually operated gate assembly.
