Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9859144A1] A closure system (10) includes a plurality of closure panels (17) adapted to be moved between deployed and stowed positions. All on a pair of carrier tracks (20) on opposite sides (12, 14) of a building opening. The actuator (18) in the deployed position have abutting top and bottom edges (30, 32) and parallel side surface (34) that span across the building opening. The actuators (18) in the stowed position have abutting in inner and outer side surfaces (30, 32) in parallel top edges (30) and parallel bottom edges (32). The top and bottom edges (30, 32) maintain their top an d bottom orientation as their closure panels (17) transition between the deployed and stowed positions.
