Abstract

1,163,155. Taking up slack in cables. OVERHEAD DOOR CORP. 12 July, 1967 [2 Aug., 1966], No. 32038/67. Heading B8B. [Also in Division E2] An up and over door construction includes at each side a spring-biased arm 31 attached to the door for taking up slack in a door-operating cable 9 and rollers 8 mounted on the door for engaging guide tracks 7. The arm 31 is cranked and rotatably mounted on a spindle journalled in ears 21 on a member 16 bolted to each base corner of the door. A torsion spring 46 attached between one ear at 47 and a stud 49 on the arm 31, biases the arm to tension the cable 9. The lower end of the cable is clamped at 28 to the door 3 and is engaged above this point by a member 34 pivoted to the arm 31 by a pin 35. The upper end of the cable 9 passes on to a winding drum which is biased by a torsion spring to partially counterbalance the weight of the door and which is operated manually by a depending chain loop. The pivoted member 34 on the arm 31 facilitates the correct positioning of cable on the drum when the arm 31 is close to the drum at the upper portion of travel of the door. The door 3 comprises three panels horizontally hinged together.
