Definitions

  • the technical problem to be overcome by present solution is lack of safety of a person closing or opening or otherwise engaging a door using handle which is normally hidden in a recess made in said door. If door handle needs to be essentially flush with the surface of said door or at least partially retracted into said door, and also if its retraction is automated, there is clear and present danger of users’ fingers or other extremities caught between said handle and edge of said recess.
  • EP3234284 door handle assembly and process for extending and/or retracting of door handle assembly with safety function wherein attachment means is either helical spring, elastic band.
  • GB472359 describes a flush handle for the outside of vehicle doors, said handle moved into its recess when the latch is retracted either by the inside handle or by slamming the door.
  • KR20130063124 describes the handle housing mounted on the outer panel of a vehicle door and partitioned into a grip member and an opening and closing member.
  • the door locking device is connected to the grip member and opens a door using a handle cable.
  • EP1607556 describes the door handle designed so that on the side of the grab handle opposite the first swivel axis a lever which is swivel mounted on the grab handle during swivel movement moves the grab handle from the closed and rest position in which the grab handle closes flush with the body and/or grip housing into the operating position where the grab handle protrudes for actuation, and at the end of actuating the door moves it back into the closing position.
  • the lever is mounted on the grab handle to swivel about a second swivel axis which runs parallel to the first.
  • Door handle assembly and process for its use solves above referenced technical problem by attaching door handle to said door or door handle assembly base by at least one attachment means as well as providing a process during which safety features of said handle are utilized to prevent discomfort or even bodily harm of user of said handle.
  • This invention deals with a door handle which is normally hidden within the door, be it either completely flush with a door surface, or partially protruding from said door surface. If an user wants to use said handle, said user activates said handle using state of the art actuating means. Said user may either depress said handle, or triggers mechanism by some other means such as breaking a light beam, actuating proximity sensor, depressing a button or some similar mechanism.
  • said handle which has been hidden, either partially, or totally, within body of said door is activated, said handle emerges from a recess in which it was hidden.
  • This can be achieved by means of springs, electric actuators, pneumatic cylinders, oil cylinders or some similar mechanism, or by rack and pinion mechanism as in preferred embodiment.
  • said user may engage is by usually gripping it and proceeding with normal use of said handle.
  • attachment means uses magnetic force, or is actively engaged by means of sensors.

  • Said attachment means (3) can be composed of at least two parts, the first part being the first magnet (3 a), the other part being the second magnet (3b), both magnets exerting force on each other (attracting one another) causing the handle to be retracted into the recess. Should an obstacle be placed between a handle and a recess, the handle ceases to retract without exerting undue force on the obstacle, said force being limited by magnetic force between both magnets.
  • attachment means (3) can be comprised of a control unit, said control unit actively controlling said driving means (7), said control unit being controlled by sensor or plurality thereof.
  • a control unit said control unit actively controlling said driving means (7), said control unit being controlled by sensor or plurality thereof.
