Abstract: The invention relates to a suspension device for at least one sliding door for closing a door opening or window opening. In this suspension device, the sliding door is displaceably mounted by two rollers that roll on at least one roll profile, and when entering the closing area, the sliding door is both displaced in the direction of the door opening as well as lowered. The rollers are arranged in an essentially vertical manner in a position outside of the closing area, and; the rollers, when entering the closing area, laterally tilt out of the vertical. The sliding door, in a pivotal motion about a horizontal axis, which is parallel to the plane of the sliding door, is displaced in the direction of the door opening and lowered.

Abstract: An assembly for use with a vehicle sliding door 12 which includes a first wheel 24, which is movably disposed within a first track 40 located on the vehicle and having a ramped portion 44, and a second wheel 32 which is movably disposed within a second track 60. The assembly includes a brake pad 62, which is disposed within the second track 60, which frictionally engages the second wheel 32, and which cooperates with the ramped portion 44 to hold door 12 in an open position.

Abstract: An improved airtight closing sliding door with contact pressure and integrated one-hand operation which lowers itself in its closed position and thereby hermetically seals the door frame as well as the door sill by way of continuously effective contact pressure whose door leaf is suspended from the cam plate of a carrying shaft, and which is lowered from horizontally to vertically downwards position by turning the carrying shaft.

Abstract: The device for guiding and actuating a vertical air-tight sliding door is suspended from two carriages each provided with a right-angled support bracket which is capable of horizontal displacement in a slideway. A bent plate which carries the door is rotatably mounted on an elbowed shaft fixed on each carriage. The bent plate carries a roller controlled by a fork and plate assembly which is pivotally mounted on the shaft and actuated by a jack. As the roller reaches the end of the track, the fork and plate assembly is permitted to rotate, with the result that the door carries out a compound movement of downward displacement and application against the wall.

Abstract: Control apparatus for a device for hermetically closing an opening in a wall, which device includes a leaf movable from a hermetically closed position to a disengaged position in which it is slidable along a rail. The control apparatus includes a drive mechanism for moving the leaf from the hermetically closed position to the disengaged position and a linear electric motor for sliding the leaf along the rail, the linear motor including a first element secured to the leaf and a second element secured to the wall.
