Abstract
A door system includes a multi-panel door and a dual-synchronization drive assembly for the door system. The dual-synchronization drive assembly has a structural configuration and functionality that combines a drive mechanism with a synchronization mechanism. The dual-synchronization drive assembly transmits a drive force in a manner that causes linear movement of door panels of the multi-panel door system between an open position and a closed position. The dual-synchronization drive assembly causes a synchronized movement of the door panels at different linear speeds/velocities to fully advance the door panels to the open position or the closed position simultaneously. The dual-synchronization drive assembly includes a dual gear unit that is configurable to allow for any motion/speed ratio necessary in order to obtain a specific performance objective of the door system.
