WATER RESISTIVE ENTRANCE DOORS FOR BUILDINGS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240026732 titled 'WATER RESISTIVE ENTRANCE DOORS FOR BUILDINGS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a door system that includes a doorframe with vertical jambs, a pivotable door, a threshold with a valley, and a removable dam that can be mounted to the threshold. A seal is placed between the dam and the threshold at the valley to create a sealed interface.

  • The door system includes a doorframe, a door, a threshold, and a dam.
  • The doorframe has vertical jambs that provide support for the door.
  • The door is pivotably coupled to the doorframe, allowing it to open and close.
  • The threshold extends between the vertical jambs and has an upper surface that forms a valley.
  • The dam can be removably mounted to the threshold at the valley.
  • A seal is placed between the dam and the threshold at the valley to create a sealed interface.

Potential Applications:

  • Residential and commercial buildings
  • Industrial facilities
  • Hospitals and healthcare facilities
  • Hotels and hospitality industry

Problems Solved:

  • Provides a sealed interface between the dam and the threshold, preventing water, air, and other elements from passing through.
  • Helps to maintain temperature control and energy efficiency by preventing drafts and leaks.
  • Reduces noise transmission between different areas of a building.

Benefits:

  • Improved weatherproofing and insulation for doors.
  • Enhanced energy efficiency and cost savings.
  • Increased comfort and privacy.
  • Reduced maintenance and repair costs.
  • Potential for customization and aesthetic appeal.


Original Abstract Submitted

a door system includes a doorframe having opposing vertical jambs, a door pivotably coupled to the doorframe, a threshold extending between the opposing vertical jambs and providing an upper surface that defines a valley, and a dam removably mountable to the threshold at the valley. a valley seal interposes the dam and the threshold at the valley when the dam is mounted to the threshold and thereby generates a sealed interface between the dam and the threshold.
