A handle locking structure includes a handle having a pivot portion pivotally connected to a sliding box, a buckle portion for hooking on a cabinet and a handle shaft, and a positioning structure including a base connected to the handle shaft, a positioning device mounted in the base and an elastic member placed on the positioning device. When the handle is hooked on the cabinet, a peripheral limiter of a head member of the positioning device is disengaged from a position-limiting notch of the base to reset the elastic member, so that the positioning device is automatically locked to the sliding box, avoiding vibration of the handle and improving the locking stability of the handle.

Disclosed herein are cylindrical door locks configured to indicate the lock status of the door lock to nearby persons. In some instances, the lock status is indicated on a first side of the door. In other instances, the lock status is indicated on both a first side and a second side of the door.

A latch mechanism includes a hook-handle assembly coupled to a first panel and a clevis coupled to a second panel. The hook-handle assembly engages the clevis to secure the first panel relative to the second panel.

A latch mechanism includes a hook-handle assembly coupled to a first panel and a clevis coupled to a second panel. The hook-handle assembly engages the clevis to secure the first panel relative to the second panel.

A handle assembly includes a removable handle positioned over a sleeve. The handle assembly includes a catch positioned within the sleeve, and when extended, the catch prevents relative movement between the handle and the sleeve. The handle assembly includes a spindle positioned within the sleeve. The spindle has a longitudinal axis. The spindle is rotatable between a locked position and an unlocked position. When in the locked position, the sleeve is not rotatable, and when in the unlocked position, the sleeve is rotatable. The handle assembly includes a support structure that is configured to support the spindle. The support structure is in a fixed rotational relationship with respect to the handle. When the catch is in an extended position and the spindle is in the locked position, deflection of the spindle in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis is resisted by way of the support structure.

A luggage includes a case member having an opening; a front cover connected to the case member to open and close the opening of the case member; a lock member connected to the case member, wherein the lock member has a hook portion, and the hook portion has a bore; a lock base connected to the front cover; a latch movably connected to the lock base; a spring having opposite ends urging the latch and the lock base; and a lever member pivoted lock base and associated with the latch. The latch engages the bore of the hook portion to lock the front cover with the case member, and the lever is turned to move the latch and disengage the latch with the bore of the hook portion of the lock member to unlock the front cover with the case member.

An indicator lock has a rotatable indicator which rotates with the depression of a button on the other side of the lock which is used to simultaneously cause a door to be locked and rotate the indicator. This is accomplished by way of a shaft which rotationally moves with the the locking button. The locking button is pressed inwards and rotates as it is pressed inwards due to a channel which is diagonally disposed relative to the direction the button is pressed. A pin extending out from a shaft of the button is in the diagonal channel and a spring adds tension to push the button and display back to the unlocked configuration. This tension is overcome when the button is pressed and the pin enters into a section of the channel which is parallel to the shaft and direction of button press.

An interchangeable electro-mechanical lock core for use with a lock device having a locked state and an unlocked state is disclosed. The interchangeable electro-mechanical lock core may include a moveable plug having a first position relative to a lock core body which corresponds to the lock device being in the locked state and a second position relative to a lock core body which corresponds to the lock device being in the unlocked state. The interchangeable electro-mechanical lock core may include a core keeper moveably coupled to a lock core body. The core keeper may be positionable in a retain position wherein the core keeper extends beyond an envelope of lock core body to hold the lock core body in an opening of the lock device and a remove position wherein the core keeper is retracted relative to retain position to permit removal.

A push button lock mechanism is remotely and manually operable. The mechanism has a lock cylinder that is rotatable when a key is located therein; an actuator that is connected to the lock cylinder to be rotated thereby and that is biased toward an outwards position; a locking gear formed to be rotated by the actuator between a first position in which the actuator is prevented from passing therethrough and a second position in which the actuator can pass therethrough from the outwards position to an inwards position; a push button for linearly moving the actuator through the locking gear from the outwards position to the inwards position; and a remotely operable motor that acts to rotate the locking gear between the first position and the second position when operated. The motor can be remotely operated by a radio frequency fob or any other passive keyless operating device.

An exemplary knob assembly includes a knob having a circumferential channel, and a deformable ring seated in the circumferential channel. The ring is normally rotatable relative to the knob such that rotation of the ring does not cause a corresponding rotation of the knob. When gripped with a sufficient gripping force, the ring frictionally engages and rotationally couples with the knob, thereby permitting transmission of torque between the ring and the knob. In certain embodiments, the knob assembly may include a detent mechanism operable to selectively couple the ring and the knob. In certain embodiments, the ring may include protrusions operable to engage pockets in the knob to provide for rotational coupling.
