SMART-LOCK SYSTEM AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SMART-LOCK SYSTEM
A smart-lock system and a method of operating the system is disclosed. The system comprises a smart-lock on a door of a room. The door comprises a first and a second side. The first side of the door lies on the interior side of the room and the second side of the door lies on the exterior side of the room. At least one sensor is disposed on the first side of the door to detect the presence of any user on the interior side of the room and at least one sensor is disposed on the second side of the door to detect the presence of any user at the exterior side of the room. The smart-lock is configured to lock the room when the room is occupied.
Re-positional drawer/door pulls
A pull assembly that affords users the option of one of at least three positions along an operatively associated drawer or door board, wherein the drawer or the door board provide the conventional manufacturer pair of bore holes spaced apart. The pull assembly provides three pairs of complimentary holes, each pair spaced apart to align with the pair of bore holes of the drawer or the door board. The three pairs of complimentary holes are arranged so that every other hole of the pull assembly defines a pair of complementary holes, wherein two pull assembly holes are adjacent to each other near a middle portion of the pull assembly. The holes on the back of the pull could be four, five or six aligned to the two boring holes of the door or drawer.
Apparatus and Methods for Securing an Equipment Cabinet
A securing assembly for locking a first section with a second section of an equipment cabinet against hinging movement. The first section can hingedly support a door of the cabinet. The securing assembly can include a knob, with a pocket, and a latch can be coupled to the knob to be rotated by the knob as the securing assembly is rotated between a free orientation and an engaged orientation. In the free orientation, the latch can be disengaged from the second section to permit the first section to hingedly open away from the second section. In the engaged orientation, the latch can be engaged with the second section to lock the first and second sections together and the pocket of the knob can be receive an arm of a lock on the door to lock the door to the first section and lock the securing assembly in the engaged orientation.
OVEN DOOR AND OVEN COMPRISING AN OVEN DOOR
The invention relates to an oven door (10) for closing an oven cavity (2) comprising a door glass (11) being at least partially transparent for enabling a user to look into the oven cavity, wherein the door glass (11) comprises at least a first and a second glass pane (11.1, 11.2), the first glass pane (11.1) constituting the outer glass pane and said glass panes being arranged at a distance from one another, wherein an electronic transparent display (12) is arranged in the space between the first glass pane (11.1) and the second glass pane (11.2) in order to provide information to a user in front of the oven door (10) and wherein the oven door comprises heat isolation means for protecting said electronic transparent display (12) against heat radiated by the oven cavity (2).
SANITIZING DOOR HANDLE
Various implementations of the invention are directed toward a sanitizing door handle and/or components of such sanitizing door handle that sanitizes the door handle during use. Various implementations of the invention are directed toward a gravity-fed sanitizing door handle and/or components of such sanitizing door handle. Various implementations of the invention are directed to a hand sanitizing dispenser that dispenses a fluid, such as a sanitizing fluid, onto hand(s) of a user when the user operates or otherwise engages a door handle, such as, but not limited to, the sanitizing door handles discussed above. In some implementations of the invention, the fluid is dispensed directly onto the hands of the user. In some implementations of the invention, the fluid is dispensed onto the exterior of the sanitizing handle and is subsequently passed onto the hands of the user through contact with the sanitizing door handle.
EASY SNAP-TOGETHER ELECTRIC POWER TRACK APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR EFFICIENTLY TRANSFERRING ELECTRIC POWER TO DOORS FOR ENERGIZING DOOR-ASSOCIATED ELECTRICAL DEVICES
A snap-together electric power track apparatus for efficiently transferring electric power to doors in order to energize door-associated electrical devices includes a door access device associated with a door wherein a user comes into contact with the door access device utilizing electrical energy, a power hinge for transmitting electrical power the door, and a device for transmitting electrical energy to electrically energize one or more door-associated electrical devices. Preferably, the device for transmitting electrical energy to electrically energize door-associated electrical devices includes an adhesive- backed current carrying conduit/track that adjustably attaches to the door and transmits electrical power from the power relaying hinge to door associated electrical devices
Vehicle door handle sanitizing system
A vehicle door assembly comprising includes a vehicle door panel, a vehicle door handle operably connected to the door panel so as to enable operation of a door latch by the door handle, and at least one sanitizer dispensing mechanism having at least a first nozzle coupled to the vehicle door panel and structured to discharge a sanitizing material onto an exterior surface of the door handle.
Glass door with a handle assembly
A glass door for a refrigerating unit and to such refrigerating unit, wherein the glass door includes a glass pane, a handle assembly including a transparent base part bonded at an adhesion surface to an outer glass surface of the glass pane, and a handle part made in a transparent material, preferably Polymethylmethacrylat (PMMA). The handle assembly further includes a mounting connection for mounting the handle part to the base part, wherein the mounting connection is provided by the one or more protrusions of the handle part and by one or more recess(es) in the base part or one or more recess(es) provided between the base part and the outer glass surface.
LOCKSET ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION
A lockset apparatus according to certain embodiments includes one or more features that facilitate the assembly and/or installation of the lockset. By way of example, certain embodiments relate to an outside trim assembly including one or more features that facilitate installation of a spring cage, a lock module, a lock cylinder, a light guide, a battery tamper monitor, and/or a request to exit sensor. In certain forms, an outside trim assembly and/or an inside trim assembly may be utilized across multiple formats of access control device, such as the mortise format, the tubular format, and/or the exit format.
