The brush edges are configured to extend laterally from the curtain to contact, for example, the side edges of the opening in which the curtain assembly is installed and remain in contact with the side edges during movement of the curtain. The brush edges can be configured to deflect along the plane of the motion of the curtain to maintain the contact between the curtain and the side edges. In some embodiments, the curtain assemblies can include optional side tracks configured to receive the brush edges, for example, to improve the connection between the brush edges and the side edges. | 08-29-2013 |

20090145559 | ROLLER BLIND SYSTEM FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE - A shade arrangement for a motor vehicle with at least one shade length and at least one roller tube for taking-up and unrolling the shade length, each side edge of the shade length having at least one flexible, flat guide strip which extends along the drawing direction of the shade and is guided in a guide. The guide contains a connecting link in which the guide strip is guided, and which has an exit gap through which the shade length emerges from the guide, the guide strip being guided such that its base surface is guided essentially parallel to the adjacent region of the shade length. The shaping and dimensioning of the exit gap and guide strip are such that the guide strip cannot emerge from the guide by itself. The shade length is connected to the roller tube via at least one constant force spring. | 06-11-2009 |
20130098566 | Retractable Screen Apparatus, System, and Method - Retractable protective screen devices and related systems comprising means for retention of a screen in an intended configuration under conditions of wind and/or other separating forces are disclosed. In some embodiments, a screen carries a plurality of spaced-apart rivets, each overlying a corresponding, spaced-apart substrate material, disposed approximately in-line and adjacent a margin or edge of the screen. A guide channel is configured to be affixed to a door, window, or other frame. The guide channel is further configured with a cavity and slot to provide passage of the rivets and screen, respectively, therethrough. With such configuration, the screen is constrained in its intended position against wind and/or other separating forces. Further advantageously, the screen is maintained in its preferred configuration throughout its entire range of travel, and is constrained throughout that range of travel against wind and/or other separating forces. | 04-25-2013 |
20140020853 | Closure Curtain With Bumper Centering Device - An overhead vertical closure, such as an overhead coiling door is described. A plurality of bumpers are spaced and fixed along the sides of the closure to center the curtain between the support brackets. In a first preferred embodiment, the geometry of the bumper is such that the vertical side and the extending sides meet in one or more obtuse angles. In a second preferred embodiment, the geometry of the bumper is such that the vertical side and the extending sides meet in a radius. | 01-23-2014 |
20140345812 | Systems and Methods to Retain and Refeed Door Curtains - Systems and methods to retain and refeed door curtains are disclosed. An example door is disclosed that includes a track and a curtain that includes a leading section. The curtain is to be in at least one of a breakaway state or a normal state, and in at least one of a folded condition or an unfolded condition while in the breakaway state such that: (a) in the normal state, a lateral section in an area proximate the leading section is in guiding engagement with the track; (b) in the breakaway state while in the folded condition, the lateral section in the area proximate the leading section is dislodged from the track and folded over onto the main section to define an enfolded space; and (c) in the breakaway state while in the unfolded condition, the lateral section in the area proximate the leading section is dislodged from the track but not folded over onto the main section. The example door also includes an unfolder to be in a position to engage the lateral section proximate the enfolded space as the leading section moves toward an open position while the curtain is in the folded condition. | 11-27-2014 |
20150020981 | COVERING CURTAIN - The present invention provides a covering curtain to prevent a user's hand from being clipped when using the covering curtain. The covering curtain comprises a fixed end, a free end, an opening, and a covering element. The free end is opposite to the fixed end. The opening is disposed near the free end and comprises a proximal edge and a distal edge, wherein the proximal edge is relatively far from the fixed end and the distal edge is relatively near the fixed end. The covering element is pivotally mounted in the opening and comprises a pivoting bar and a spring element, and the pivoting bar is pivotally mounted to the proximal edge of the opening through the spring element. | 01-22-2015 |
