Patent attributes
An adjustable door braking system includes a shaft, a brake pad configured to be mounted to the shaft, a plate for mounting on the shaft adjacent to the brake pad, a spring for urging the plate to the brake pad, an adjustment piece, and a seat. The spring is configured to be mounted on the shaft. The adjustment piece is dimensioned and sized to be mounted on the shaft for adjusting an amount of force the spring urges the plate against the brake pad. The seat allows the adjustment piece to move axially along the shaft and limit the adjustment piece from rotating with the shaft. The seat is movable between an engaged position where it contacts the adjustment piece to prevent rotation of the adjustment piece and a disengaged position where it does not contact the adjustment piece.
