An automatic door operator includes a lead screw having a first end connected to an output end of an actuating unit and a second end extending away from the output end. A lead screw nut is attached to the lead screw. A slider is attached to the lead screw nut. The slider is provided with a rack portion extending in a direction parallel to an axial direction of the lead screw, and during a movement of the lead screw nut, a length of an overlap of the rack portion and the lead screw in the axial direction varies. The operator includes a housing having a guide hole configured to be slidably engaged with the slider and an output shaft is mounted in a mounting hole disposed on the housing. The output shaft has a gear portion positioned in the guide hole and engaged with the rack portion.

Automatic door operator

An automatic door operator and a drive mechanism thereof are disclosed. The drive mechanism of the automatic door includes a planetary reducer driven by an electric motor, and a drive shaft driven by a planetary reducer. The planetary reducer includes a housing and a planetary gear train mounted in the housing. The planetary gear train includes a final-stage planet carrier configured to output torque, and a center of the final-stage planet carrier is provided with a torque output hole. A first end of the drive shaft is detachably inserted in the torque output hole and is non-rotatably connected to the torque output hole, and a second end of the drive shaft extends out of the housing. The drive mechanism of the automatic door operator is advantageous to the miniaturization design of the automatic door operator.
