Abstract: A sliding fire door is disclosed with an improved tightness of the closure by the door main body. The sliding fire door includes an opening frame, a fire door, and a guiding mechanism. The guiding mechanism includes a guide roller group which includes a plurality of guide rollers arranged one adjacent to another along the slide direction and which is configured to guide the door main body. The guiding mechanism is configured to guide the door main body such that the door main body is moved from an opening position to a closing position. The door main body has a first opposing surface which is oriented toward the wall. The opening frame has a second opposing surface which is oriented toward the first opposing surface of the door main body in the closing position. The guiding mechanism moves the door main body to cause the first opposing surface to be moved closer to the second opposing surface when the door main body is moved from the opening position to the closing position.

Abstract: An article transport facility comprises an article transport vehicle, a guide rail, and a fire door configured to open and close an opening formed in a wall. The fire door is rotatable with respect to the wall. The guide rail has a movable rail portion supported by the fire door, and two stationary rail portions arranged across the movable rail portion from each other. A movable guide portion is provided at one of an end portion of the movable rail portion and an end portion of the stationary rail portion. The movable guide portion is capable of being moved between a guiding position in which the movable guide portion connects the movable rail portion and the stationary rail portion with the fire door in an open position, and a retracted position for allowing unhindered movement of the fire door and the movable rail portion when the fire door is rotated.

Abstract: A fire door includes an intermediate member formed in the shape of a plate and arranged between a first plate member and a second plate member; a first heat insulating material arranged between the first plate member and the intermediate member; a second heat insulating material arranged between the second plate member and the intermediate member; a first coupling member for coupling the first plate member and the intermediate member, arranged so as to extend through the first heat insulating material; and a second coupling member for coupling the second plate member and the intermediate member, arranged so as to extend through the second heat insulating material. The first coupling member is arranged so as to be spaced away from both of the second plate member and the second coupling member. The second coupling member is arranged so as to be spaced away from the first plate member, and the first plate member and the second plate member are arranged so as to be spaced away from each other.

Abstract: A door body includes a door main body, an upper guided portion provided to an upper portion of the door main body, and a lower guided portion provided to a lower portion of the door main body. A guide member includes an upper guide portion, a lower guide portion, and a restricting portion. The upper guide portion supports the upper guided portion from below while restricting movement of the upper guided portion along the fore and aft direction. The lower guide portion supports the lower guided portion from below while restricting movement of the lower guided portion along the fore and aft direction. The upper guided portion is moved upwardly away from the upper guide portion in the expanded support state. The restricting portion restricts movement of the door main body in the first direction in the expanded support state, and restricts movement of the door main body in the second direction in the expanded support state.

Abstract: The present invention, which enables to align a liquid crystal molecule, when no voltage is applied thereto, and also to control pretilt angle of the liquid crystal molecule, relates to a composition for a liquid crystal alignment film comprising components represented by the following (A) to (D): (A) a meta-phenylene diamine derivative represented by the general formula [1]; (B) a meta-phenylene diamine derivative represented by the general formula [2]; (C) a para-arylene diamine represented by the general formula [3]; (D) a tetracarboxylic acid represented by the general formula [4] or a tetracarboxylic acid anhydride represented by the general formula [4?]; (wherein R1 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms or the like, R2 represents an alkyl group having 8 to 20 carbon atoms or the like, t moieties of Ra represent an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms or the like, n represents an integer of 1 to 3, t represents an integer of 0 to 4, T represents an oxygen atom or the like, Y repre

Abstract: A closure member for a urea tank used to provide urea to an exhaust treatment system of a vehicle comprises a closure member body defining respective urea inlet and outlet passages and coolant inlet and outlet passages therethrough. A valve carried by the closure member body, and a portion of the valve can be an integral one piece part of the closure member body, selectively blocks the flow coolant through the interior of the urea tank. When coolant flows into the tank, it is separated from urea in the tank by a recirculating conduit which returns the coolant from the coolant inlet passage to the coolant outlet passage. Coolant circulating within the tank heats urea therein. The coolant flow valve can comprise a solenoid controlled valve with an electrical connector carried by the coolant tank for making connections to wiring that provides power to the solenoid to control the valve.
