Abstract: The present invention relates to a door, in particular a sectional door, having a door leaf comprising a plurality of panels which are connected to one another and are guided in guide rails via rollers, with at least the topmost roller pair extending in separate guide rails over a part of its travel path during the opening or closing of the door.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a door drive comprising electrically operated components which are supplied with electrical energy via a mains connection. In accordance with the invention, a control and an electrical energy store are provided, with the control separating the door drive from the mains and the electrical energy store providing the electrical energy in a first operating mode and with the control connecting the door drive to the mains in a second operating mode.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of controlling a door drive, in particular of a roller door, wherein a capacitive sensor is used for the automatic recognition of obstructions in the region of the door closing path, wherein the recognition of obstructions on the closing of the door takes place by a comparison of the then current change in the capacity of the capacitive sensor with respect to a variable with a reference value or a reference curve. The invention furthermore includes a corresponding system of controlling a door drive.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a door having a door leaf which has a closing edge and which can be moved within a travel path by means of a drive, having a connection for an external light barrier which can be arranged in the travel path of the door to detect any objects or body parts present there and having a control for the reversal of the door movement when preset shut-off forces are reached, wherein a first set of shut-off forces is associated with the control when a light barrier is connected and activated; and wherein a second set of shut-off forces is associated with the control when the light barrier is deactivated

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a sensor unit for the position determination of a powered door having a position sensor and a transmission stage for the connection of the position sensor to the drive shaft of the door, with the sensor unit having its own housing so that it can be installed independently of the drive unit of the door.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an apparatus for controlling a door drive comprising a path-measuring apparatus for the sensing of a door position and/or a door drive position and for the emitting of a corresponding door position signal as well as comprising a control device for the control of the door drive in dependence on an absolute value of the door position signal and at least one reference point. In accordance with the present disclosure, the apparatus for controlling a door drive is characterized in that the path-measuring apparatus is made with at least two channels and comprises an absolute value encoder for the emitting of an absolute value signal on a first channel and a reference value encoder for the emitting of a plurality of reference point signals on a second channel, and the control device distinguishes a respective reference point signal from other reference point signals using the associated absolute value signal and controls the door drive starting from a specific reference point.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an adjustable light barrier transmitter comprising an adjustment element which transmits an adjustment light beam of light in the visible range which extends parallel to the main light beam of the light barrier.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an adjustable light barrier member comprising at least one control display, a fastening housing and a transmitter or receiver member rotatable in the fastening housing, with the control display being arranged at the pivot axle of the transmitter or receiver member.

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.
