Abstract: A separating element for a platform cabin is provided. The separating element comprises: at least one stationary partition, delimiting a passage defining a circulation axis inside the cabin; at least one leaf, mounted transversely movable relative to the circulation axis between a closed position, in which it extends through the passage, and an open position, in which it is positioned at least partially spaced away from the passage; and means for moving the or each leaf between the closed position and the open position thereof, the or each leaf being adapted to move along the plane transverse to the circulation axis.

Abstract: Cantilever gates (10) in the form of parallelograms include first and second bars (40) and a toe board (140) extending between and pivotally mounted to first and second posts (20, 30) and moveable between closed and open positions. Gas struts (46) assist in moving the gate (10). A lock (60) in the form of a pivotal latch (62) holds the gate (10) in its open position. A slide receptor (80) slideably receives the second post (30) as the gate (10) moves from the open to the closed position and can be removably secured to the support surface mounting plate (82). A pair of cantilever gates (10) can have their respective second posts (30) slideably related.

Abstract: A durable door opening/closing mechanism that does not require a large space for opening and closing operation such that a door and a main body such as a cab, can be freely designed. To achieve this, the door is supported by links coupled to the cab by joints. One end of the door is guided along the side of the cab by a guide rail. When a rail support begins moving along the side of the cab while being guided by the guide rail, a couple of forces, causing the door to rotate, act on the joints at both ends of the links. The other end of the door is swung out of the cab towards the outside by the couple of forces.

Abstract: A self-adhesive reinforced foam gasket comprising a release liner having an upper surface which is a release surface, a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive applied to the release surface, a layer of flexible polymeric film, preferably polyester film, applied to the pressure sensitive adhesive layer, and a layer of flexible foam, preferably closed cell PVC flexible foam, thermally bonded to the flexible polymeric film layer. A length of material for die-cutting the gasket therefrom is provided. The gasket may be used in automobiles and other applications.

Abstract: There is a pair of slide cams provided symmetrically about the center line of a door at the right-hand and left-hand end portions of the door, a pair of lock cams provided on the main body symmetrically in portions corresponding to those of the slide cams, and a hinge pin mounted in a state in which it penetrates an axial hole provided at the lock cams. Each slide cam has a first grooved cam which can be engaged with and disengaged from the hinge pin in the horizontal direction, and a second grooved cam which can move from a first engagement position which continues from the first grooved cam and is engaged with the hinge pin guided by the first grooved cam when the door is closed to a second engagement position which serves as a pivot axis of the slide cam when the door is opened. Each slide cam is further provided with a first cam projection provided around the second grooved cam. Each lock cam is provided with a second cam projection which locks the first cam projection in the first engagement position.

Abstract: Gate, particularly for entrance ways, roads, or the like, with a barrier which can be pivoted in such a way that the tip of the barrier executes a purely horizontal motion when entering its closed position and that, when the gate is closed, the tip of the barrier is positioned within a fully closed casing to protect against unauthorized opening of the gate.

Abstract: A buffer stop for an opening on a side-loading and side unloading furnace is mounted on a parallelogram linkage connected with a fixed support and is moved into position and out of position by the movement of a counterweight along a shaft on a member of the parallelogram linkage.
