Abstract: The invention relates to a system to control the motor drive of a garage door panel which is reciprocatingly movable and guided along a predetermined track between two end positions, and possibly, one or more intermediate stop positions, said garage door panel including a switching device which indicates the assumption of the respective end position or stop positions, the output signals of this switching device being usable to switch off the power supply to the drive motor, wherein the limit switches or reference point switches are actuatable through rotatable cams which simulate the garage door path. According to the invention, both the rotating cams as well as the limit switches are combined to form one constructional unit.

Abstract: Process for the drying of plastic granulates composed of any base materials, especially of composite materials, the granulates being produced using the under-water or water-ring granulation principle or a similar technology where the granulate is fed from the granulating device to a gravity water separator (1) by means of a processing water stream and thereafter to a drying device (2), whereby inside the drying device (2), heated ambient air is aspirated through the granulate, the supplied heat content of the heated ambient air being extracted from the processing water by means of heat exchanger (12).

Abstract: The invention relates to a gate or door drive housing with a basic carrier body for preference in the shape of a bowl or shell, to which various different drive components can be secured, and a cover hood which can be connected to the basic carrier body. According to the invention, a housing extension for accommodating additional and/or larger drive components can be connected in a releasable manner in an exact fit to the basic carrying body.

Abstract: A drive for closure elements is provided, in particular in the area of garage and industrial doors, but also for example in the form of roller shutters, with a reference value generator arranged in the motor or in the gearing of the drive for determining the actual position of the closure element. When a reference point position is reached, the reference value generator emits a signal or causes a signal modification, on the basis of which the actual-value generator can be calibrated. The reference value generator has two reference discs rotating in different speeds, which, in predetermined angular positions to one another, define the reference point positions which can be scanned by at least one scanning device.

Abstract: A garage door drive includes a housing and at least one light unit. According to the invention, at least one mounting point for the mechanical and electrical connection of the attachably and detachably constructed at least one light unit is arranged on the housing.

Abstract: The invention concerns a drive for closing devices, for example gates or shutters, with variable speed output drive and a device for detecting a given position of the closing device. According to the invention, the drive speed output depends on the position of the gate and can be controlled depending on the given mechanical closing characteristic of the closing device.
