Safety system for automatic door

1. A safety system for an automatic door comprising:

a first switch installed along a front edge of the automatic door, wherein the first switch comprises:

a first stationary frame fixed to the automatic door and configured to surround the front edge of the automatic door;

a first rotary frame configured to hingedly rotate relative to the first stationary frame; and

an ultrasonic sensor installed in the first rotary frame and configured to detect a motion of the first rotary frame;

wherein the first rotary frame extends along a part or an entirety of a length of a front edge of the first stationary frame, a first end of the first rotary frame is rotatably coupled to the first stationary frame and defines a rotation axis of the first rotary frame to enable the first rotary frame to hingedly rotate relative to the first stationary frame, and a second end of the first rotary frame engages with the first stationary frame to enable the first rotary frame to move relative to the front edge of the first stationary frame, and

wherein when a front edge of the first rotary frame collides with an external object and the first rotary frame rotates about the rotation axis, the ultrasonic sensor detects the rotational motion of the first rotary frame and transmits a detected signal to an automatic door controller to stop an operation of the automatic door.

2. The safety system of claim 1 , wherein the first rotary frame has an arc-shaped cross-section, and the ultrasonic sensor is disposed at predetermined intervals along the front edge of the first stationary frame or the front edge of the first rotary frame.

3. The safety system of claim 1 , further comprising:

an elastic protruding portion installed on the front edge of the first rotary frame, wherein the elastic protruding portion extends along the front edge of the first rotary frame.

4. The safety system of claim 3 , further comprising:

a second switch installed at a front end of a doorframe to cover a gap between a surface of the door and the front end of the doorframe, wherein the second switch comprises:

a second stationary frame fixed to the doorframe, configured to surround the front end of the doorframe, and having a fixing plate extending perpendicular to the doorframe and protruding toward the door;

a gap covering plate movably installed on the fixing plate of the second stationary frame;

a second rotary frame installed on the fixing plate and configured to hingedly rotate relative to the fixing plate; and

a second ultrasonic sensor installed in the second rotary frame and configured to detect a rotational motion of the second rotary frame;

wherein a plurality of holes are formed in at least one of the fixing plate and the gap covering plate, and the gap covering plate is moved to a desired position relative to the fixing plate and fixed thereto by a bolt, such that the gap covering plate covers the gap between the front end of the doorframe and the surface of the door; and

wherein the second ultrasonic sensor is disposed along a front edge of a third stationary frame, and wherein when the second ultrasonic sensor detects the rotational motion of the second rotary frame, the second ultrasonic sensor transmits a detected rotational motion signal to the automatic door controller to stop the operation of the door.
