Restroom door assembly

A door assembly configured for use in a restroom stall having first and second opposed side walls and a front opening, comprising:

• a first housing configured to be mounted on the first side wall, the first housing defining a first inner cavity;
• a second housing configured to be mounted on the second side wall, the second housing defining a second inner cavity;
• a first door moveably mounted on the first housing, the first door having opposed inner and outer surfaces that are curved, wherein the first door is moveable along a first arcing path between an open position, wherein the first door is retracted within the first housing and at least partially received in the first inner cavity, and a closed position, where the first door is extended outward of the first housing relative to the open position;
• and
• a second door moveably mounted on the second housing, the second door having opposed inner and outer surfaces that are curved, wherein the second door is moveable along a second arcing path between an open position, wherein the second door is retracted within the second housing and at least partially received in the second inner cavity, and a closed position, where the second door is extended outward of the second housing relative to the open position,
• wherein the first and second doors are configured such that, in the closed positions, the first and second doors combine to obstruct the front opening, and in the open positions, the first and second doors permit passage through the front opening,
• wherein the first housing further comprises a first curved inner panel facing inward from the first housing and defining the first inner cavity, and the second housing further comprises a second curved inner panel facing inward from the second housing and defining the second inner cavity.

A door assembly configured for mounting on a first wall, comprising:

• a first housing configured to be mounted on the first wall;
• a first door moveably mounted on the first housing, the first door having opposed inner and outer surfaces that are curved along a curved length of the first door, wherein the first door is moveable along a first arcing path between an open position, wherein the first door is retracted with respect to the first housing, and a closed position, where the first door is extended outward of the first housing relative to the open position;
• and
• a first mounting assembly mounting the first door on the first housing, the first mounting assembly comprising:
• a first track positioned on one of the first door and the first housing at a top side of the first door, wherein the first housing and the top side of the first door are operably engaged at the first track to permit the first door to move between the open position and the closed position;
• and
• a second track positioned on one of the first door and the first housing at a bottom side of the first door, wherein the first housing and the bottom side of the first door are operably engaged at the second track to permit the first door to move between the open position and the closed position,
• wherein the first mounting assembly includes first, second, and third points of contact with the first door at the first track and the second track, the first point of contact configured to exert a first vertical force component on the first door, the second point of contact being offset from the first point of contact along the curved length of the first door and configured to exert a second vertical force component on the first door, and the third point of contact being vertically offset from the first point of contact and the second point of contact and configured to exert a third vertical force component on the first door, and
• wherein the first vertical force component, the second vertical force component, and the third vertical force component combine to resist rotation of the first door.

A door assembly configured for mounting on a first wall, comprising:

• a first housing configured to be mounted on the first wall;
• a first door moveably mounted on the first housing, the first door having opposed inner and outer surfaces that are curved and a top side and a bottom side that are curved with the inner and outer surfaces, wherein the first door is moveable along a first arcing path between an open position, wherein the first door is retracted with respect to the first housing, and a closed position, where the first door is extended outward of the first housing relative to the open position;
• a first track positioned on the top side of the first door, wherein the first housing and the top side of the first door are operably engaged at the first track to permit the first door to move between the open position and the closed position;
• a first top roller engaging a top of the first track;
• a second top roller engaging the top of the first track and spaced from the first top roller along a curved length of the top side of the first door;
• a first bottom roller engaging a bottom of the first track;
• and
• a second bottom roller engaging the bottom of the first track,
• wherein the first and second top rollers and the first and second bottom rollers are configured to roll along the first track as the first door moves between the open position and the closed position,
• wherein at least one of the first and second top rollers and the first and second bottom rollers is a powered roller configured to power movement of the first door between the open and closed positions by exerting force on the first track, and
• wherein the first track has a slot extending along the curved length of the first door, and wherein the first bottom roller is mounted on a first leg that extends downward through the slot to position the first bottom roller on the bottom of the first track.
