Electronic control for door/window
A combined active sealing system for connecting a panel to a frame of a door/window comprises a plurality of active sealing systems, a seal activation system, and an electronic control system. Each of the plurality of active sealing systems includes an anchor for engaging one of the panel and the frame, and an actuator connected to the anchor and for driving the anchor. In a closed position of the panel relative to the frame, the anchor is movable between a locked position and an unlocked position. The seal activation system is connected to at least one of the actuators of the plurality of active sealing systems. The electronic control system controls the seal activation system.
1. A system, comprising:
a frame;
a panel coupled to the frame;
a plurality of active sealing systems, each of the plurality of active sealing systems including:
an anchor for engaging one of the panel and the frame, and
an actuator connected to the anchor and for driving the anchor, wherein
in a closed position of the panel relative to the frame, the anchor is controllable to move from a locked position to an unlocked position and from the unlocked position to the locked position
at least a portion of the active sealing system moves from the frame toward the panel in the locked position of the anchor;
a seal activation system connected to the actuator of the plurality of active sealing systems; and
an electronic control system for controlling the seal activation system, wherein the electronic control system includes:
a control module,
an unlocking actuator, and
a locking actuator, wherein the control module controls activation of the unlocking actuator and the locking actuator.
