A safe comprises a housing having a first housing portion and a second housing defining an interior compartment for storage of items, the second housing portion being pivotal with respect to the first housing portion between closed and open positions. A latching mechanism cooperates with spaced apart first and second strikers to maintain the second housing portion in the closed position. The latching mechanism includes movable first and second locking elements that engage respective of the first and second strikers when the second housing portion is being maintained in the closed position. The first and second locking elements are retracted away from the first and second strikers to release the second housing portion into the open position. A motor having a rotatable output shaft carries a drive dog. A rotating plate rotatable about an axis is also provided, the rotating plate having an engaging element that is driven by the drive dog. First and second levers are pivotally connected at their proximal ends to the rotating plate at substantially diametrically opposed locations, distal ends of the first and second levers being connected to the locking elements.

An opening and closing device is provided. The opening and closing device includes a housing, a displacement restricting part, an electrical driving module, and an electroless driving module. The displacement restricting part is capable of moving with respect to the housing when the electrical driving module is in an unlocked state. The electrical driving module is capable of restricting the displacement restricting part from moving with respect to the housing when the electrical driving module is in a locked state. The electroless driving module is capable of releasing the electrical driving module's restriction over the moving of the displacement restricting part with respect to the housing via the hand-driven part.

A modularized electric door lock includes an operating device mounted to a door, an outer electric device mounted to an outer side of the door for receiving an unlocking signal, and an inner electric device mounted to an inner side of the door and controlling the outer electric device. The inner electric device includes an electric driving device mounted in the operating device for setting the operating device to a locked state or an unlocked state. The outer electric device and the corresponding inner electric device can be selected among various types, such that the door lock of a desired type can be rapidly assembled.

A security device also referred to as a security strap comprises a locking mechanism having at least a first portion and a second portion, wherein the first portion and the second portion releasably engage one another. The security device has at least two attachment mechanisms, wherein one of the at least two attachment mechanisms extends outward from the locking mechanism, and wherein another of the at least two attachment mechanisms extends from the locking mechanism in an opposite direction to the one of the at least two attachment mechanisms, wherein each of the at least two attachment mechanisms are separated from the locking mechanism by a length of strap material, and wherein at least one of the at least two attachment mechanisms is attached to a substrate.

A biometric lock system includes a vehicle that has a driver's side door. The driver's side door has a handle and a door lock and the vehicle has a steering wheel lock. A fingerprint unit is coupled to the vehicle and the fingerprint unit is positioned on the handle. In this way the fingerprint unit reads a fingerprint when the handle is gripped. The fingerprint unit is in electrical communication with the door lock and the steering wheel lock. Moreover, the fingerprint unit unlocks the door lock and the steering wheel lock when the fingerprint matches an authorized fingerprint. In this way the fingerprint unit inhibits the vehicle from being stolen.

The invention provides an intelligent lock and use method thereof. The intelligent lock comprises a lock body with a lock hook, an indicating device disposed on the lock body and a control unit provided in the lock body. The use method comprises: receiving a signal that a user presses the lock hook by the control unit; sending a first indication signal via the indicating device by the control unit, when it is determined that the duration of the signal is less than a first preset threshold and the intelligent lock is not registered; and sending a second indication signal via the indicating device by the control unit, when it is determined that the duration is less than a first preset threshold and the intelligent lock is registered. The intelligent lock of the invention has simple structure and easy to operate.

A digital wearable monitoring device with dual locking system allows parents to monitor and locate a missing or wandering child. The monitoring device is secured to a child and can be removed through biometric signatures of a parent or authorized guardians. The monitoring device is preferred to be a wrist strap; however, the present invention may take the form of a belt, necklace, bracelet, earring, or any other applicable clothing accessory. The monitoring device includes a tactile sensor and at least one input device. The tactile sensor allows the wearer to write, draw, or tap a message to be processed and transmitted to a parent or authority. A location device then allows the parent or authority to locate and rescue the wearer.

A smart lock comprises wireless enabled communication components and fingerprint enabled identification verification components. The fingerprint enabled identification verification components are configured to be at a location that a typical user's fingerprint is reachable and in a contact position when the user holds a handle of the lock. The smart lock is configured to be operable using Internet signals, bluetooth signals, and/or direct physical contact of a identification verification mechanism or method.

An authentication system controlled by eye open and eye closed state and a handheld control apparatus thereof are provided. The handheld control apparatus includes a housing case, an image capturing unit and a processing unit. The housing case has a window and is suitable for a user to hold. The image capturing unit is disposed in the housing case and captures an eye area of the user through the window to obtain an image sequence. The processing unit is coupled to the image capturing unit and analyzes the image sequence to obtain eye image information of the eye area of the user. The processing unit detects an eye-open state and an eye-closed state of the user based on the eye image information, converts a plurality of the eye-open states and the eye-closed states into a blink code, and accordingly generates a control command to control a security equipment.

An access control system with facial recognition comprising a casing, a door handle, an interaction unit, a locking unit, a triggering unit controlling an unlock/lock state of the locking unit and a facial recognition unit. The interaction unit has an operation panel arranged above the door handle and protruded from the casing at an inclined acute angle relative to a vertical surface of the casing. The facial recognition unit comprises a data storage module, an image collection module comprising an infrared camera and an optical camera for user face scanning, an image processing module and a determination module. The infrared camera and the optical camera are fixed on the operation panel of the interaction unit, which enables authentication for users of different heights. Furthermore, the access control system can also be unlocked by passcode and/or a RFID card.
