  • Patent number: 8763356
    Abstract: A chain, in particular a technical chain, preferably a unidimensionally movable chain (plate link chain), more preferably a bolt chain or roller chain, has at least one or more chain links. The at least one chain link is constructed with pretensioning. A manufacturing method includes the following steps: assembling at least one chain link from at least two link plates with link plate holes and two bolts or sleeves. In the non-assembled state, the link plate is not straight, in particular has a curved form, and/or the link plate and the link plate holes have a hole axis, wherein the hole axis is not right-angled, and/or, in the non-assembled state, the bolt or the sleeve is not straight, in particular has a curved form. The chain is assembled from at least two chain links and at least one chain link is manufactured in this way.

  • Patent number: 6338693
    Abstract: A pivot-hung door drive system with an electro-mechanical or electro-hydraulic drive device that supplies the opening and closing moment required to open and close a connected pivot-hung door panel, whereby an electronic regulation/control system with at least one memory and at least one microprocessor, on the basis of sensor signals, controls the opening or closing moment by means of a gear wheel that is located on an output shaft, which gear wheel is connected by means of a linkage and an actuator arm with the pivot-hung door panel, whereby between the output shaft of the pivot-hung door drive system and the linkage or the actuator arm, there is a device that effects a change in the opening and closing moment over the angle of rotation of the pivot-hung door panel.

  • Patent number: 6262548
    Abstract: This invention relates to a pivot-hung door drive system with an electro-mechanical device that supplies the closing moment required for the opening and closing of the door, comprising a transmission which varies its translation ratio over the angle of rotation of the door, a guide that is connected with an output shaft and a driver roller that can execute a translation movement relative to the guide and in the guide, which driver roller is connected with a pinion that is engaged with a toothed rack that is connected with the spring system, whereby the axis of rotation of the output shaft is at a defined distance from the axis of rotation of the pinion, and the axis of rotation of the driver roller is at a defined distance from the axis of rotation of the pinion, such that when the output shaft and pinion are rotated, the translation ratio changes as a result of the changing axial distance between the output shaft and the driver roller.
