GATE CLOSER SUITED TO BE RETROFITTED ONTO A GATE WITH AN EYEBOLT HINGE
The gate closer (16) is arranged to be retrofitted onto an eyebolt hinge (2) with a projecting bolt portion (14). It comprises a body (17), an actuating arm (18) which is mounted rotatably according to a first rotational axis (19) onto the body (17), an actuator in said body (17) for actuating the rotating actuating arm (18) and a coupling mechanism (21) for coupling the actuating arm (18) to the bolt portion (14) of the eyebolt (9). The coupling mechanism (21) comprises an inner sleeve (22) arranged to be screwed onto the projecting portion of the eyebolt (9), and an outer sleeve (23) mounted onto the inner sleeve (22) so as to be slidable back and forth, and mounted onto the actuating arm (18) to be rotatable about a second rotational axis (24). The gate closer (16) can thus be retrofitted onto the gate (1) without requiring the gate (1) to be removed from the support (3). Furthermore, for a same angular momentum that can be exerted by the gate closer (16) onto the gate (1), smaller torsional forces are exerted onto the actuating arm (18).
E05F 15/63 - Mécanismes pour battants mus par une force motrice utilisant des actionneurs électriques utilisant des électromoteurs rotatifs pour battants pivotants manœuvrés par bras pivotants
A surface-mountable electric strike having a keeper arranged to pivot about a first shaft extending in a longitudinal direction; a lock lever for locking the keeper in a door-locking position, the lock lever being arranged to pivot about a second shaft extending in a direction that is transverse to the longitudinal direction and parallel to the backside of the strike; and an actuation mechanism for actuating the lock lever, the actuation mechanism comprising an electromagnet that is situated next to the lock lever in a direction which is substantially perpendicular to the backside of the strike thereby enabling the electromagnet to act directly upon the lock lever providing a simple construction. Moreover, the orientation of the second shaft enables arranging the lock lever, and the electromagnet, above and/or underneath the keeper, thereby reducing the total depth of the strike.
An electric strike having two keepers arranged to pivot about respective shafts extending in a longitudinal direction, a lock lever for locking the keepers in a door-locking position, the lock lever being arranged to pivot about a second shaft extending in a direction that is transverse to the longitudinal direction and parallel to the backside of the strike; and an actuation mechanism for actuating the lock lever. The keepers form side walls of a bolt cavity and are arranged to pivot between a door-locking position and a door-releasing position. Therefore, the bolt may exit the cavity in two directions, e.g., a first direction for a left-handed closure member and a second direction for a right-handed closure member. The strike can thus be mounted in the same orientation for both left-handed and right-handed closure members.
An electric strike having a keeper arranged to pivot about a shaft extending in a longitudinal direction, a lock lever for locking the keeper in a door-locking position, the lock lever being arranged to pivot about a second shaft extending in a direction that is transverse to the longitudinal direction and parallel to the backside of the strike; and an actuation mechanism for actuating the lock lever. The strike is provided with a bearing element arranged to bear against the lock lever. The bearing element acts as a stop against possible lateral motions of the lock lever. Such motions may be induced by trying to force open the door lock when the lock lever is in the locking position. By providing the bearing element, it is avoided that the forces due to these lateral motions are exerted onto the second shaft that connects the lock lever to the strike.
A hydraulically damped actuator (100) for closing a hingedly connected closure system. The actuator (100) comprises an energy storing mechanism (130, 131, 132) configured for storing energy when the closure system is being opened and for restoring the energy to effect closure of the closure system and a hydraulic damping mechanism configured for damping a closing movement of the closure system. The actuator (100) further comprises a tubular cylinder barrel (118) having a first and a second end and a rotatable shaft (121) having a first and a second extremity. The shaft (121) extends at least from the first end to the second through the tubular cylinder barrel (118). Therefore, both extremities of the shaft (121) are available to be connected with a mechanical connector (108) configured for transferring a rotation of the closure system to the shaft (121) enabling the actuator (100) to be mounted in two opposing orientations depending on the handedness of the closure system.

A hydraulically damped actuator for closing a hingedly connected closure system. The actuator comprises a tubular cylinder barrel (218), an energy storing mechanism for storing energy when the closure system is being opened and for restoring the energy to close the closure system and a hydraulic damping mechanism for damping a closing movement of the closure system. The damping mechanism comprises a closed cylinder cavity (244) that is partly formed by a collar (220) that is integrally formed with the tubular cylinder barrel (218), a guiding element (251) that is bolted to said collar (220) and a piston (247) that is irrotatably and slideably with respect to the tubular cylinder barrel (218) coupled to said guiding element (251). As such, the guiding element (251) is fixedly positioned with respect to the tubular cylinder barrel (218), without needing a screw connection. Therefore, the actuator has a simpler and stronger construction and an additional sealing ring can be avoided.

HYDRAULICALLY DAMPED ACTUATOR AND SELF-CLOSING HINGE COMPRISING THE ACTUATOR
A hydraulically damped actuator for closing a hinged closure member (1). The actuator comprises: an energy storing mechanism for storing energy when opening the closure member (1) and using the energy to close the closure member (1); a damping mechanism for damping a closing movement of the closure member (1) having a closed cylinder cavity (40) filled with hydraulic fluid; and a pressure compensation mechanism comprising an expansion channel (69) with a plunger (70) that is slidably received therein for compensating changes of a volume of the hydraulic fluid upon temperature variations. The plunger (70) divides the expansion channel (69) into a first compartment (71) in fluid communication with the cylinder cavity (40) and a second compartment (72) that is sealed off from the first compartment (71) by the plunger (70). The expansion channel (69) provides space to allow the hydraulic fluid to expand without resulting in excessive pressures that would damage the closed cylinder cavity (40).

A closing device includes an actuator mechanism and a hydraulic damper mechanism. The actuator mechanism includes a pushrod urged by a resilient member towards its extended position. The hydraulic damper mechanism includes a piston, a first rack and pinion gearing for converting the translational motion of the pushrod into a rotational motion of a first pinion, a transmission, which includes a second rack and pinion gearing, between the first pinion and the piston for transmitting and converting the rotational motion of the first pinion into a translational motion of the piston, a one-way valve allowing fluid flow from a first side to a second side of the cylinder cavity when opening the hinged member, and a restricted fluid passage between the first and second sides of the cylinder cavity. The transmission provides together with the pinions of the first and second rack and pinion gearings a reduction gearing between the pushrod and the piston so that the piston reciprocates over a smaller distance than the pushrod.

Control assembly for controlling the rotation of a turnstile
A control assembly for controlling rotation of a turnstile, includes a torque-restoring mechanism (13) with springs (20), a motion converting transmission with a multiplying gearing (56, 57) converting a rotation of the turnstile over 120° into a rotation of the rotary shaft entering the hydraulic damper (26) over 180°. The hydraulic damper (26) has two pistons mounted onto a single piston rod. A cam or crank mechanism converts rotation of the rotary shaft into reciprocating motion of the two pistons. The first piston damps the rotary movement of the turnstile when moving in one direction while the other piston damps this movement when the pistons move in the other direction, therefore damping the turnstile in both directions. A motion converting transmission in combination with a double-piston mechanism avoids any loss of hydraulic fluid, while achieving a gradually increasing damping force to effectively stop the rotation of the turnstile.
