An airtight device includes a container and an airtight cover on the container, and the airtight cover includes a fixing bracket, a door, and a pressuring handle. The fixing bracket has a through hole and a guiding slot, and the through hole communicates with internal space of the container. The guiding slot has adjacent first and second top surfaces, and the second top surface is higher than the first top surface. The door selectively covers the through hole. The pressuring handle pivoted on the door has a first section, a second section, and a rotating axis between the first and second sections, and the first section rotates relative to the second section. The second section receives a force to drive the first section to move from below the second top surface to below the first top surface such that the rotating axis pressures the door.

A corner deflector of a fitting for a window casement or a door leaf, insertable into a C-shaped casement/leaf groove in the rebate of a frame profile of the casement/leaf. The corner deflector having a first corner limb and a second corner limb at right angles to the first corner limb. A groove for a limb of the casement/leaf groove, the limb groove having an undercut, is provided on a first longitudinal side of the first corner limb and/or of the second corner limb. The region of the second longitudinal side of the first and/or second corner limb which is located opposite the undercut of the first longitudinal side is undercut-free. At least one securing element is provided on the second longitudinal side, which can be moved relative to the second longitudinal side between a securing position and a disengagement position.

A powered latch assembly for a vehicle tailgate includes a latch structured to engage a striker mounted on a vehicle and to be rotatable into a latching position when engaged with the striker, so as to maintain the tailgate in a closed position associated with the latching position of the latch. The latch assembly also includes a latch control member rotationally connected to the latch and structured to be engageable by a pawl of the latch assembly to maintain the latch control member in a position associated with the latching position of the latch. A rotational position of the latch is thus controlled by engagement between the pawl and the latch control member rotationally connected to the latch. A wall may be provided between the latch and the latch control member to environmentally isolate the latch control member and components of the latch assembly from the vehicle exterior environment.

An openable door includes a first engaging member, a second engaging member, and at least one intermediate engaging member. when the openable door pivots from an open position to a closed position, an engaging portion of the first engaging member engages a first engaged portion, and an engaging portion of an engaging portion of the second engaging member engages a second engaged portion before an engaging portion of the intermediate engaging member engages an intermediate shaft body.

A door panel for use in a residential entryway includes a frame having a first stile, a second stile, a top rail connecting the first stile to the second stile, and a bottom rail connecting the first stile to the second stile. The door panel also includes a pair of opposing skins on respective faces of the frame. The first stile includes a channel along a length thereof on an interior longitudinal surface of the first stile. A cover is attached to the interior longitudinal surface of the first stile to at least partially seal the channel

A vehicle storage device includes a panel, a storage unit provided adjacent to the panel, having an opening in a certain part thereof, and capable of storing a person's goods and belongings therein, a lid which can open and close the opening, and a locking device capable of keeping the lid in a closed state. An operation unit includes a design surface that is exposed in a vehicle interior. One end of the operation unit design surface is substantially continuous from a design surface of the panel, and the other end of the operation unit design surface is positioned adjacent to the lid.

An opening/closing assembly for a door configured to actuate certain latches during a powered operation and to actuate not all the same latches during a manual (emergency) operation. The assembly operates to decouple the operation of levers associated to the various latches of the door. The assembly is configured such that a hold-close latch is actuated for both a powered operation and a manual operation, while a hold-open latch is not actuated during the manual operation and is only actuated during the powered operation.

A dispensing cabinet may include a security panel and a plunger having a disengaged position and an engaged position. The plunger may be secured in the disengaged position by the security panel. The security panel may be released in order to transition the plunger from the disengaged position to the engaged position. The dispensing cabinet may further include a lever configured to interface with the plunger and one or more latch assemblies. The lever may shift upwards in response to the plunger being transitioned from the disengaged position to the engaged position. An upward motion of the lever may release the one or more latch assemblies by rotating, to a limit, a cam bracket included in each of the one or more latch assemblies. The dispensing cabinet may be unlocked by the release of the one or more latch assemblies.

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.

The present invention relates to a vehicle storage compartment arrangement (100), comprising a storage compartment (102) and a cover arrangement (104), said cover arrangement being connected to the storage compartment (102) and slidably movable along a first geometric axis (202) between an opened position and a closed position, wherein said cover arrangement comprises a locking mechanism (106, 406, 506) for connecting the cover arrangement to the storage compartment, said locking mechanism comprising a first (108) and a second (110) locking pin movable along a second geometric axis (204), said first and second geometric axis being substantially perpendicular to each other, wherein the first and second locking pins are controllable between a first state in which the cover arrangement is locked to the storage compartment, and a second state in which the cover arrangement is unlocked from the storage compartment, wherein the cover arrangement further comprises an actuation handle (112) connected to the first and second locking pins by means of at least one pre-tensioned spring (114, 116, 514), wherein said first and second locking pins are arranged in said second state when said actuation handle is moved along said second geometric axis.
