Abstract[English]
A sectional door may include a plurality of door sections including at least a top section and a bottom section, a hinge assembly operably coupling adjacent door sections to each other to enable the adjacent door sections to pivot relative to each other via the hinge assembly, a roller assembly operably coupling the door sections to a rail assembly to enable the sectional door to transition between an open state and a closed state via the roller assembly carrying the sectional door in the rail assembly, and a switchable viewing pane that transitions between a transparent state and an opaque or translucent state responsive to receipt of a transition signal, the switchable viewing pane being disposed at a portion of one of the door sections.[French]
La présente invention concerne une porte sectionnelle qui peut comprendre une pluralité de sections de porte comprenant au moins une section supérieure et une section inférieure, un ensemble charnière couplant de manière fonctionnelle des sections de porte adjacentes l'une à l'autre pour permettre aux sections de porte adjacentes de pivoter l'une par rapport à l'autre par l'intermédiaire de l'ensemble charnière, un ensemble rouleau couplant de manière fonctionnelle les sections de porte à un ensemble rail pour permettre à la porte sectionnelle de passer d'un état ouvert à un état fermé par l'intermédiaire de l'ensemble rouleau portant la porte sectionnelle dans l'ensemble rail, et une vitre commutable qui effectue une transition entre un état transparent et un état opaque ou translucide en réponse à la réception d'un signal de transition, la vitre commutable étant disposée au niveau d'une portion de l'une des sections de porte.
