Vehicle door clip assembly and method for painting a vehicle using the same
A door clip assembly that utilizes both reusable and disposable components, thereby minimizing material waste and providing significant cost savings. The bulk of the door clip assembly is manufactured from a reusable metal or plastic material that is resistant to both heat and chemicals so that it can be periodically paint stripped and/or cleaned and reused. Only the tip of the door clip assembly is manufactured from a disposable plastic or rubber material that is inexpensive so that it can be discarded, and that can safely contact an exposed surface and/or finish of a vehicle without damaging it. The door clip assembly is easy to install/remove and does not require a driver tool.
CLEVIS-SENSING ADJUSTABLE HOOK LATCH
A latch mechanism includes a hook, a displaceable handle, and links connected between the handle and hook for the operation of the latch mechanism. The handle and links cooperate with the hook to hold the latch mechanism in a locked position.

LOCKING DEVICE AND FOOD PROCESSOR
A locking device and a food processor. The locking device includes a cover plate; an unlocking mechanism including an unlocking key and an unlocking portion connected to the unlocking key. The unlocking portion is disposed in the cover plate and can move in the length direction of the cover plate. A disabling mechanism includes a blocking portion and an actuating portion, wherein the blocking portion can be clamped to the unlocking portion to block the movement of the unlocking portion in the length direction, and the actuating portion is in linkage with the blocking portion in such a mode that the blocking portion moves away from or close to the unlocking portion. After the disabling mechanism is started, a user does not need to press the unlocking key again when needing to open the door.

SLIDING SECURITY DOOR SYSTEM
The present sliding security door system includes a sliding security door extending between an upper track and a lower track. Separate motive and locking assemblies drive and secure the door, respectively. A control assembly in the system is capable of separately activating motive and locking effectors to allow for separate movement and locking/unlocking of the door. Because of this, the system is compact and capable of deployment in otherwise too-small spaces.
Attack-resistant and weather-resistant lock
A lock can include attack-resistant and/or weather-resistant features. Attack-resistant features can include a sacrificial link between a locking mechanism and an external keyway covering an exterior face of the locking mechanism. The sacrificial link can break during a torque attack on the lock such that the full force of the torque attack is not applied to the locking mechanism. Weather-resistant features can include drain openings in one or more housing components external to the locking mechanism to facilitate drainage of liquid matter from the lock before the liquid matter reaches the locking mechanism.
Internet of things lock module
An exemplary Internet of Things (IoT) module for a lockset includes a housing assembly configured for mounting with the lockset, a controller, a wireless transceiver, and a sensor array, and may further include an LED array. The controller is in communication with an external device via the wireless transceiver, and is configured to transmit to the external device information received from the sensor array. The controller is further configured to control operation of the LED array based on information received from at least one of the sensor array or the external device.
Clutch engagement assembly of door lock and driving device thereof
A clutch engagement assembly for a door lock device includes a first shaft having at an end thereof an insertion end portion in which a channel is formed; a second drive shaft having a hollow engagement end portion into which the insertion end portion of the first shaft is inserted; a driving member which provides a driving force; and a pin member that is installed in a state of being elastically supported in the engagement end portion of the second shaft and is movable by the driving member so as to extending through (be inserted in) at least a part of the first shaft and at least a part of the second shaft, thereby causing a clutch engagement or a disengagement between a first shaft and a second shaft. The clutch engagement assembly may provide a relatively small size structure of the door lock device and a firm engagement force.
Removable tool storage compartment
A removable and replaceable tool storage compartment apparatus including tool storage compartments and a compartment receiver. The tool storage compartments each include a frame, a plurality of panels coupled to the frame. A closure is configured to open and close an entrance to an inside of the tool storage compartment. The compartment receiver is configured to secure to a truck and support the tool storage compartment thereon. Lift mounts are coupled to the tool storage compartment and are used to remove the tool storage compartments from the truck. A lock arm is configured to lock the compartment receiver to secure the tool storage compartments to a bay to receive storage compartment to the truck.
