Title: Sectional door with pinch resistant hinge between door sections
IPC: E06B3/48
Filed: 1999-06-10
Abstract: A sectional upward acting door including plural door sections interconnected by hinges and supporting guide members on opposite side edges of each section for moving the door between open and closed positions along spaced apart guide tracks. The door sections are formed from folded metal panels defining an outer wall of each section, opposed top and bottom walls which are curved to provide a pinch resistant connection between door sections and upper and lower inner walls. The upper inner wall includes a socket for receiving a hinge assembly including an elongated hinge plate which is snap fitted into assembly with plural self-lubricating polymer hinge bearing members which fit within the socket. Spaced apart end stiles and center or intermediate stiles support the panel member and transfer the weight of the door sections and other loads between sections at the hinge bearing members. The bottom and top wall profiles of adjacent sections and the hinge assembly provide a substantially pinch resistant door assembly.

Title: Wiper blades
IPC: F16F1/36
Filed: 1987-11-07
Abstract: A wiper blade (10), e.g. for a windscreen of a motor vehicle, comprises an elongate flexible spine (13) from which projects a blade (11) for wiping a surface. The spine has pairs of opposed abutment faces (76) spaced apart along at least a part of the length of the spine and which move toward and away from each other with flexing of the spine. Resilient biasing means (30,65,67) are interposed between the opposed abutment faces so that, in use, when the wiper blade engages a surface which causes the wiper blade to be deformed from its natural configuration, the resulting deformation of the resilient biasing means assists in holding the wiper blade against the surface.   The invention also concerns a spring element (80) and articles, e.g. a door closure, including the spring element which comprises an elongate flexible member (81). Pairs of opposed abutment faces (84) are spaced apart along at least a part of the length of the member and which move toward and away from each other with flexing of the member. Resilient biasing means (85) are also interposed between said opposed abutment faces so that, in use, when the spring element is deformed from its natural configuration, the resulting deformation of the resilient biasing means assists in urging the spring element to return toward its natural configuration.
