A cargo door for an aircraft having a plurality of locking devices spaced near an edge of the cargo door, at least one vent panel, a control handle, and a torsion shaft actuating a plurality of pins to lock and unlock the plurality of locking devices is provided. A first drive connects the control handle to the torsion shaft to rotate the torsion shaft following a locking or unlocking command imparted to the control handle. A second drive connects the torsion shaft to the at least one vent panel to open or close the at least one vent panel following a rotation of the torsion shaft. The torsion shaft is a double shaft having two coaxial and rotationally integral shafts, namely an inner control shaft and an outer tubular control shaft.

A locking system provides multiple lockable latching mechanisms that are collectively operable and lockable from a central actuation mechanism. Each latching mechanism can be positioned and actuated independent of the positioning of others of the latching mechanisms. In particular, the latching mechanisms need not be aligned with one another. The system uses flexible connectors between the central actuation mechanism and the respective latching mechanisms. The flexible connectors can have different respective lengths.

A multi-point locking set, comprising an engagement member attached to a first end of an actuator plate and configured to move the actuator plate in a vertical direction, a locking member attached to a second end of the actuator plate and attached to a first moving plate and a second moving plate, wherein the locking member pivots between a retracted position and an extended position when the actuator plate moves in the vertical direction, and wherein the first moving plate and the second moving plate move in a vertical direction when the locking member pivots between the retracted position and the extended position.

A casement/leaf arrangement having a casement/leaf of a window or door, with a frame profile of the casement/leaf. The frame profile having a C-shaped casement/leaf groove in the rebate, and with at least one fitting part, in particular a drive rod of a fitting, provided to be inserted into the casement/leaf groove. The casement/leaf groove has a first groove limb and a first groove portion and, located opposite, a second groove limb and a second groove portion. The fitting part has an elongate main body having a front side and a rear side. The main body has, on opposite longitudinal sides, a first peripheral region for engaging behind the first groove limb of the casement/leaf groove and a second peripheral region for engaging behind the second groove limb of the casement/leaf groove. The fitting part is pivotable into the casement/leaf groove with a peripheral region inserted into the groove portion.

A locking system for an enclosure, including a control bracket mounted to a door of the enclosure and configured to slide in a longitudinal direction along a guide rod running through a pin bracket of the control bracket. The control bracket further includes a latching pin to secure the door of the enclosure. A handle mechanism has a push rod that causes the control bracket to slide along the longitudinal direction, also causing the latching pin to move into a position that secures the door.

A lock indicator and a mechanical lock assembly, comprising: a switch; a transmitter coupled to a power source; and a bolt member moveable between a retracted position and an extended position with respect to the housing, wherein the switch is configured to engage the bolt member and is actuatable by the bolt member to determine the position of the bolt member, and the transmitter is configured to transmit a signal indicative of the position of the bolt member to a remote device.

In a work vehicle of the present invention, a load carrying bed includes a floor panel, a pair of left and right side panels, and a rear gate which is openable and closable. The rear gate includes left and right lock operational portions for maintaining the rear gate under a closing posture through engagement with locking engagement portions formed in the left and right side panels, a single handle disposed at an intermediate position in the left/right direction of the rear gate and supported to be pivotable about a horizontally oriented operational axis X, and left and right operational wires for operating left and right locking members in a direction for pulling these locking members out of the locking engagement portions by an operation of the handle about the operational axis X.

An overhead compartment of an airplane includes a storage bin and a latch assembly. A latch mechanism of the latch assembly is selectively, controllably engageable and disengageable with a keeper to hold the overhead compartment in a stowed position, or an open position, respectively.

An imaging device with a two door interlock system for detecting a positional state of orthogonally mounted first and second access doors of the imaging device. The two door interlock system includes a mounting assembly rotatably mounted to a frame of the imaging device and movable by the first access door between a first position and a second position, and an actuator projecting from an inner surface of the second access door, and a sensor positioned on the mounting assembly and providing an output signal that changes between a first state and a second state. The output signal being in the first state when both of the first and second access doors are in their respective closed positions and in the second state when at least one of the first and second access doors are in their respective open positions.
