  • Publication number: 20190168407
    Abstract: Provided is a system and method of making a door having first and second door skins and an internal frame. The top and bottom surfaces of the frame are coated with an adhesive and the frame is placed on a first door skin. The second door skin is then placed on the opposite surface of the frame. The assembled components are then pressed to bond the first and second door skins to the frame with a press having upper and lower dies configured to impart a larger compression force toward a central area of the door skins. Wear resistant belts or membranes are provided to protect the door skins from being marred by the upper and lower dies during the pressing process.

  • Patent number: 10232599
    Abstract: A door pressing system for pressing interior passage doors, exterior entry doors, bi-fold doors, and/or closet doors features a multi-door pressing station including first and second presses, a loading device, and a discharging device. The pressing station is configured to alternatively move the first and second presses into operative alignment with the loading and discharging devices. The press in operative alignment delivers a pressed assembled door to the discharging device and receives an assembled door layup to be pressed from the loading device. The other press that is out of operatively alignment presses an assembled door received therein. Additional methods and systems are also provided.

  • Patent number: 10141797
    Abstract: An electric motor has a polygon stator core. The polygon stator core includes yoke portions and teeth extending inwardly from the yoke portions. A winding slot is formed between adjacent teeth. Adjacent yoke portions are interconnected by a connecting portion. The winding slots include first winding slots and second winding slots of different shapes. The ratio of the area of a first winding slot to the area of a second winding slot is greater than or equal to 0.9 but less than or equal to 1.1. By changing the shape of the stator core, the size of the winding slots may be increased without increasing the radial dimension of the motor.
