Sealed sliding door structure and sliding door device

ActiveCN224592051UImprove sealingStructural engineeringCam follower
This utility model relates to the field of sliding door technology, specifically to a sealed sliding door structure and device, including a door frame and a door panel that moves parallel to the door frame along the X-axis. A cam follower is provided on the door panel and is movably connected to the door frame. A guide groove is provided on the door frame near the door panel to guide the door panel's movement along the X-axis. At least one sealing section oblique to the X-axis is provided in the travel of the guide groove, causing the door panel to simultaneously displace in the Z-axis direction. Because the guide groove also includes an oblique sealing section in its sliding travel, when the door panel moves to the sealing section, the door, guided by the groove, will not only move along the X-axis but also displace in the Z-axis direction. This Z-axis displacement causes the door panel to move closer to the door opening of the device, forcing the sealing strip on the door panel to be compressed, thereby improving the sealing between the door opening and the door panel.
