Shutters and blinds Explanation: Assuming that the patent in referring to parts of a building that move means things such as blinds and shutters, I suggest that these make a suitable translation. Personally, I can not think of, nor know of any term in English that covers these mobile window/door coverings. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2014-07-18 19:50:33 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The discussion has brought new elements to the problem. So, how about the "mechanised shutters of a building". In this case "La présente invention concerne un dispositif de communication pour la commande à distance d'un actionneur pour un équipement mobile du bâtiment tel qu'un volet roulant, store ou rideau et un procédé de configuration d'un tel dispositif." would give something like: "The present invention concerns a communication device for the remote control of an actuator for the mechanised shutter of a building, such as a motorised blind or shutter, and the configuration procedure for such a device."
