A second subplurality of mini slats establish the folding panel seam segments of the door. There is a dual caster assembly and a plurality of single caster assemblies attached to the top of the folding door. The caster assembly consists of at least two low friction wheels mounted on a U-shaped frame having depending legs, each depending leg having a low friction sleeve, the distal portion of each leg is attached perpendicularly to a ring. A stem is adapted to be seated through the ring and through an aperture in the clip and the top of the stem has a cap that overhangs the ring. A retaining pin secures the stem within the ring and thereby attaches the assembly to the clip and the folding door. The wheels of the caster assemblies are seated in the hanging channel track allowing the folding door to be slid open and closed. 1.

Sliding closure for cabinets

Номер: US20180073290A1

Frames having sliding panels to cover an opening of the cabinet are described. The panels are mounted to interlocking stiffeners. The interlocking stiffeners include a base portion that forms a channel to receive a leading edge of the panel. The interlocking stiffeners may be positioned on a forward leading edge and a rear leading edge of the panels. The interlocking stiffeners share forces across an adjacent panel and stiffener. A latch assembly may also be engaged to the forward edge of the panel. The latch assembly includes a channel to receive the forward edge. The latch assembly includes a protruding or projecting portion, such as a bullnose, that positions the latch assembly. During a closing operation, the protruding portion enters a channel of a side frame member. The protruding portion engages with the channel of the side frame member, which results in proper alignment for the latch assembly. The latch may include a striker and pawl assembly having a negative angle that resists opening forces.
