The present disclosure describes a combination-locking device comprising a locking body, a locking mechanism, and plurality of perceptibly identifiable entertainment media character picture representations substantially disposed on a portion of a plurality of human-interactive rotatable wheels. The plurality of perceptibly identifiable entertainment media character picture representations is operable to be arranged by a user in an at least one unique combination or sequence in order to facilitate the detachment of the locking mechanism from the locking body in an at least one location. The unique sequence or combination of perceptibly identifiable entertainment media character picture representations operable to facilitate separation of the locking mechanism from the locking body in the at least one location may be user-inputted via rotation of the plurality of rotatable wheels, or user-inputted via an electronics device comprising a suitable user-interfacing means substantially coupled to the combination locking device.

A programmable combination lock with keyed lock override is disclosed. The lock employs a stack of rings and dial wheels, with a mechanism for coupling and decoupling the rings and dial wheels. A user can program a custom code by unlocking the combination and rotating the inner and outer dial wheels until the desired code is indicated, and then locking the combination lock to set the code. A keyed lock with a master key couples to the combination lock and can override a combination lock in the locked state. The keyed lock allows multiple keys to lock and unlock the combination lock. In the event that a user loses the master key, the user can use the second key to create a new lock combination to operate the lock, yet render the lost master key inoperable.

A hanger security apparatus for securing an access to a hook of a hanger on a rod, comprises a case; at least one bottom opening formed on the case; wherein the hook of the hanger can be moved in and out of the case through the at least one bottom opening; two side-openings formed on the case, wherein the rod is passed through the two side-openings; at least one door attached with the case, wherein the hook of the hanger can be accessed when the at least one door is in an open position, wherein the hook of the hanger is not accessible when the at least one door is in a closed position; at least one lock on the at least one door; a first stopper on the at least one door, wherein the first stopper is configured to be above the hook of the hanger to prevent an up movement of the hook when the at least one door is in the closed position; and a second stopper, wherein the third stopper is configured to limit the hanger from moving axially around the rod.

A combination locking puzzle gift box consisting of a drawer, a cover, and a plurality of dials. When an unlocking code word is positioned beneath a marker on the cover, the drawer maybe be freely inserted or withdrawn from the cover assembly. In a locked state, the unlocking code is rotated away from beneath the marker and the drawer is locked in place and may not be withdrawn from the cover, thereby securing an item held within.

An electric door lock uses an interface to receive a credential to disengage a door lock. The interface is disposed on the user-graspable handle. The interface may comprise a sensor that receives a credential, such as an alphanumeric or symbolic code, a biometric input, or any appropriate combination of inputs. After a credential is entered, a gesture may be input to the interface to indicate that the credential is complete and prompt a controller to disengage the lock device. A gesture may comprise a motion or series or motions. The electric door lock also provides a control system that can be networked to allow remote entry of a credential. The control system can also control a plurality of door handles through a single door, or provide controls through remote devices.

A programmable combination lock with keyed lock override is disclosed. The lock employs a stack of rings and dial wheels, with a mechanism for coupling and decoupling the rings and dial wheels. A user can program a custom code by unlocking the combination and rotating the inner and outer dial wheels until the desired code is indicated, and then locking the combination lock to set the code. A keyed lock with a master key couples to the combination lock and can override a combination lock in the locked state. The keyed lock allows multiple keys to lock and unlock the combination lock. In the event that a user loses the master key, the user can use the second key to create a new lock combination to operate the lock, yet render the lost master key inoperable.

A lock comprising a housing assembly, an actuatable lock assembly and a locking shell assembly. The housing assembly has a cavity and a bore. The actuatable lock assembly is rotatable between a closed orientation and an open orientation, and includes an outer body and an inner body. The inner body has a knob and an elongated shaft with an axial pin that interfaces with a slot in the outer body. The locking shell assembly has a shell housing bore extending therethrough. A rear portion of the shell housing has a slot with a longitudinal first portion and a transverse second portion. The axial pin is slidably movable along the longitudinal first portion and slidably movable along the transverse second portion upon rotation of the inner body relative to the shell housing.
