Abstract

1329588 Folding doors; door operating mechanism COMPACT CLOSURES Inc 7 Dec 1970 [8 Dec 1969] 57930/70 Headings E1J and E2M A folding door comprises at least two pairs of panels 30, 32 and 34, 36 connected together in accordion fashion by horizontal hinges and each upper panel of a pair of panels has on each side thereof adjacent the upper edges a plate 146 or 46, a mounting bracket for the lower roller of each pair of rollers 150, 152 or 50, 52 on each plate, slidably and pivotally connected to the plate, the spaced rollers on each plate being guided in respective trackways and means such as rolls 44 on the lower edge of the lowermost panel engaging with one of the guide channels. As the lowest panel 36 is drawn upwards by the cable 24 as it is wound on sheave 26 by electric motor 22, the upper roller 150 on plate 146 and also roller 50 on plate 46 and roller 44 on plate 42 travel in channel 80 and as plate 146 approaches its uppermost position the sloping surface 148 engages an upper stacking stud 78 to effect a camming action and facilitate the outward movement of the panel 30, whereupon the stud 78 partially supports the weight of panels 30, 32, and during the upward movement, roller 152 on plate 146 follows the intermediate trackway 84. Continued upward movement causes roller 52 on panel 34 to move up channel 82 with the same action as the upper pair of panels. The lowermost panel may carry a ground-engaging rubber seal.
