Pair glass window and door system equipped with remote controllable auto blind
Abstract
Disclosed is a pair glass window and door system movably installed in a window frame. The pair glass window and door system includes a pair glass structure including spacers and glasses attached to front and rear portions of the spacers such that the spacers are sealed by means of the glasses, a door frame for surrounding an outer peripheral portion of the pair glass structure, a blind driving unit fixed to an inner upper portion of the pair glass structure, and an auto blind accommodated in the pair glass structure while being suspended to an upper portion of an internal cavity of the pair glass structure, the auto blind being developed or shrunken by means of the blind driving unit. The blind driving unit includes a motor, a reduction gear box for adjusting driving force and an R.P.M of the motor, a coupler connecting a rotating shaft of the reduction gear box with a blind rotating shaft so as to transfer rotational force of the rotating shaft of the reduction gear box to the blind rotating shaft, adjustment wires connected to the blind rotating shaft and the blind in order to adjust an up/down movement and angular positions of the blind according to rotation of the blind rotating shaft, a counter gear formed with gear teeth and fixedly coupled to one of the rotating shaft of the reduction gear box, the blind rotating shaft and the coupler, a photo sensor aligned adjacent to the counter gear so as to detect an operation of the blind caused by the adjustment wires through counting an R.P.M of the blind shaft by detecting a rotational movement of the counter gear, and a controller including a signal receiving section for receiving remote-control signals and a CPU for controlling the operation of the blind by adjusting a driving direction of the motor and power supplied to the motor based on signals from a remote controller and the photo sensor.

5 . The pair glass window and door system as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the controller controls a driving direction of the motor and power supplied to the motor based on a remote control signal generated from a remote controller and shuts off power being supplied to the motor when a signal of the photo sensor indicates that the blind is completely developed or shrunken.
6 . The pair glass window and door system as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the controller includes an overload protector capable of shutting off power being supplied to the motor when over-current is applied to the motor.
7 . The pair glass window and door system as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the remote control signal includes at least one of an RF signal and a voice signal.
8 . The pair glass window and door system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the window frame has a slide rail including a slide protrusion and a slot and the door frame has a slide slot and a protrusion corresponding to the slide protrusion and the slot.
9 . The pair glass window and door system as claimed in claim 8 , wherein a thin film tape type conductor is attached to one of the slide rail of the window frame and the door frame corresponding to the slide rail as an electricity supply wiring and an elastic power supply terminal, which elastically makes contact with the thin film tape type conductor, is attached to the other of the slide rail of the window frame and the door frame.
10 . The pair glass window and door system as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the elastic power supply terminal is divided into a plane type first section and a second section having a stopper protrusion positioned at a plane portion thereof and a longitudinal guide slot positioned at a lateral portion thereof, and includes a planar base having fixing ends at both ends thereof and an elastic strip contact fixed to the planar base, the elastic strip contact having a bending type thin film contact strip having first ends fixed to the fixing ends of the planar base and a guide strip formed with an elongated hole and inserted into the longitudinal guide slot of the second section in such a manner that the stopper protrusion of the second section protrudes through the elongated hole, and power supply being achieved when the thin film tape type conductor makes contact with the thin film contact strip of the elastic power supply terminal even if the pair glass window and door system is opened or being opened.
11 . The pair glass window and door system as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the first and second sections of the elastic power supply terminal are bent at a right angle and the elastic power supply terminal is assembled to the door frame such that the first section of the elastic power supply terminal is rested at an upper end of the edge of the door frame.
12 . The pair glass window and door system as claimed in claim 10 , wherein a free end of the first section is fabricated in a form of an insert slot into which a predetermined fixing insert is detachably inserted.
