The electronic access control strike can have a bolt socket, a bolt path leading to bolt socket, a keeper movably mounted to a frame in a manner to be moveable into and out of interference with the bolt path, a cam member moveable for selectively blocking or unblocking the movement of the keeper, and an anti-preload member which is moveable into interference between the keeper and the cam member for preventing the keeper from conveying a preload force onto the cam member when the cam member is in the blocking position, and moveable out from interference between the keeper and the cam member when the cam member is in the unblocking position to allow the keeper to be moved out from interference with the bolt path.

Certain aspects of the technology disclosed herein include an apparatus and method for storing energy in a electromechanical lock. The electromechanical lock can include a main housing and a deadbolt. The main housing can be configured to extend a deadbolt along a path to lock and/or unlock a door. The deadbolt can have a hollow inner region configured to receive an energy storage device. The energy storage device within the deadbolt can be electrically connected to the main housing. The energy storage device can be used to power an actuator and/or accelerometer in the main housing.

A barrier control system running a program thereon, the barrier control system including a main body, a control unit disposed within at least a portion of the main body to execute the program to control operations of the main body, and at least one control device connected to the control unit to control operations of the main body through the control unit based on the program.

The present invention relates to an electronic lock. The electronic lock includes a turn piece coupled with a cylinder connecting spindle; an electric motor connected with a first bevel gear; and a dislocation transmission mechanism including a first dislocation member coupled with the turn piece and the cylinder connecting spindle and having an arc opening, and a second dislocation member engaged with the first bevel gear and having a protrusion, in which the protrusion is configured to extend into the arc opening, such that when the protrusion is engaged with either a first engaging portion or a second engaging portion at two ends of the arc opening, the first dislocation member is driven by the second dislocation member, and when the first dislocation member is in motion within a void range defined by the arc opening, the first dislocation member fails to drive the second dislocation member.

A dead bolt lock system including a slider member operatively coupled to a dead bolt such that when the slider member is in a first position, the dead bolt is in an extended position. When the slider member is in a second position, the dead bolt is in the retracted position. The system also includes a first movable member positioned in a path of movement of the slider member and configured to be displaced by the slider member to allow the slider member to move to the second position. The system includes a first lock having a first condition preventing the displacement of the first movable member and a second condition allowing the displacement of the first movable member, a second lock having a first condition preventing the displacement of the first movable member and a second condition allowing the displacement of the first movable member.

A security device for an item of merchandise is provided. The security device includes a non-programmable locking mechanism comprising a mechanical lock and a programmable locking mechanism comprising a monitoring circuit operatively coupled to an alarm. The security device is configured to secure an item of merchandise from theft or removal when the mechanical lock is locked and to be separated from the item of merchandise when the mechanical lock is unlocked. The alarm is configured to provide an alarm signal if the security device is separated from the item of merchandise while the monitoring circuit is armed.

A system of isolation management comprises a computer for generating an isolation plan; a lockbox configured to receive the isolation plan from the computer; a mobile device associated with an individual, and one or more locks for isolation locking of an asset by each individual according to the isolation plan. The mobile device is allocated to the lockbox according to the isolation plan. The lockbox is configured to recognise the mobile device when proximal to the lockbox. The one or more isolation locks are removably housed in the lockbox. The one or more isolation locks are each able to be recognised by the mobile device and the mobile device is configured to record an association of one or more of the isolation locks to the mobile device according to the isolation plan. There is also an isolation point for isolating the asset with the one or more isolation locks according to the isolation plan. The isolation point is able to be recognised by the mobile device.
