Embodiment Construction

[0015] FIG. 1 shows a garage door drive 10 with a cover 12 completely covering the drive unit, which is not shown in detail here. Part 14 of the cover can consist of an at least partially transparent or translucent material, so that garage lighting can be integrated at this part.

[0016] As can be seen particularly in FIG. 2 , the body of the cover 12 , which is substantially integrally formed of plastic, is provided with a large-area recessed portion 16 . On the one hand, an operating area 18 is arranged in the recess 16 and operating elements 20 and 22 for setting or programming the garage door drive are accommodated in this operating area. Furthermore, a plurality of areas 24 and 26 bearing alphanumeric or symbolic markings are provided within the recessed portion 16 . In the embodiment shown here, the manufacturer's name and the manufacturer's symbol are shown in area 26 , while the type indication of the garage door drive is reproduced in area 24 .

Because garage door drives are often freely and visibly attached to garage ceilings, there is a need to design these devices in an attractive manner. Since the inventory of different components is kept as low as possible during the manufacture of the corresponding garage door drive, manufacturers often strictly limit the variety of different covers for the garage door drive. On the othe...
