An intelligent unlocking device comprises a rear shell, a front shell, a motor assembly, a hollow rotating shaft, an adapting piece connected with a lock cylinder and the hollow rotating shaft, a manual rotating shaft, an inner bearing and a bearing support which are disposed around the manual rotating shaft, and an outer bearing. The bearing support and the outer bearing are disposed around an end of the manual rotating shaft. The intelligent unlocking device is silent and free of noises in use, and convenient to assemble and disassemble, intelligent unlocking can be achieved without replacement of a whole door lock, and costs are reduced for users.

An exemplary latchbolt assembly includes a latchbolt, a locking sleeve, and a roller engaged between the latchbolt and the locking sleeve. The latchbolt is configured to drive the roller from a first position to a second position as the latchbolt moves from a projected position to a depressed position. The locking sleeve includes a blocking surface and a recessed portion. When the blocking surface is aligned with the roller, the locking sleeve retains the roller in the first position, thereby retaining the latchbolt in the projected position. When the recessed portion is aligned with the roller, the locking sleeve permits movement of the roller from the first position to the second position, thereby enabling depression of the latchbolt.

A rotary knob for operating an electronically actuable deadbolt is described herein. According to some embodiments, the rotary knob includes a chassis, an outer wall rotatably coupled to the chassis about a central axis of the knob, a cantilevered beam attached to an inner surface of the outer wall and extending towards the central axis of the knob such that the beam is configured to rotate with the outer wall about the central axis, a circuit board coupled to the chassis, the circuit board including signal traces, and an electrical contact extending from the cantilevered beam in a direction toward the signal traces and electrically connectable with the signal traces. A controller of the rotary knob is configured to determine a position of the deadbolt based on at least the state of the electrical connection between the electrical contact and the signal traces.

The disclosure provides a lock with a radially extending cam that can be pivoted electrically or manually by a key. The lock resides in a housing for ease of manufacture and reduction of space, for use, as an example, as a replacement or retrofit for an existing manual cam lock. The cam extends transversely to a first axis and is manually rotatable by a key about the first axis. The cam is also rotatable about a second axis parallel to the first axis by an electrical signal to a motor or a linear actuator connected to a cam mechanism body.

A lockset including a bolt mechanism, an exterior assembly, an interior assembly, a driving tailpiece, and a driven tailpiece. The bolt assembly includes a bolt having an extended position and a retracted position. The exterior assembly includes a rotatable exterior manual actuator. The interior assembly includes a clutch having a coupling state and a decoupling state. The driving tailpiece is connected between the exterior manual actuator and the clutch. The driven tailpiece is connected between the clutch and the bolt mechanism such that rotation of the driven tailpiece actuates the bolt assembly. In the coupling state, the clutch couples the driving tailpiece with the driven tailpiece such that the exterior manual actuator is operable to actuate the bolt assembly. In the decoupling state, the clutch decouples the driving tailpiece from the driven tailpiece such that the exterior manual actuator is inoperable to actuate the bolt assembly.

An intelligent door lock system is coupled to a door at a dwelling. A door status device is at the dwelling. The door status device is coupled to a drive shaft of a lock device to assist in locking and unlocking a lock of a lock device at the door. The lock device is coupled to the door status device and includes a bolt. An engine, an energy source and a memory are coupled together. A plurality of cameras that communicate with each other and with the lock device.

A transmission structure includes: a turn button; a driven wheel including a wheel body and connecting parts having free ends or pushing blocks; and an actuating member including abutting parts corresponding to the free ends or the pushing blocks. When the driven wheel rotates, each of the free ends or each of the pushing blocks abuts against a corresponding one of the abutting parts. Also, the actuating member moves with a rotating shaft, and a latch connected to the rotating shaft displaces between a locked position and an unlocked position. When the driven wheel rotates, the latch does not displace and the actuating member cannot rotate. Also, each of the free ends or pushing blocks is still abutted by the corresponding one of the abutting parts and is curved elastically or deformed until the free end or the pushing block spans across the corresponding one of the abutting parts.

According to some exemplary embodiments described herein, a door lock may include a driveshaft operatively couplable to a bolt configured to move between an extended position and a retracted position to selective secure an associated door. The door lock may also include a transmission coupled to the driveshaft, where the driveshaft includes at least one gear configured to rotate with the driveshaft. The door lock may also include a magnetic encoder coupled to the transmission and configured to measure a position of the at least one gear. The magnetic encoder may include a diametrically polarized magnet coupled to the at least one gear.

In some embodiments, a method of determining whether a door is ajar may include determining an orientation of a door lock of the door, and, based on the orientation of the door lock, analyzing at least one signal from at least one of two or more proximity sensors of the door lock. The method may further include determining whether the door is ajar based at least in part on a result of the analyzing of the at least one signal. In some embodiments, a method of determining a status of a door may include receiving a first signal from a first magnetometer disposed within a door lock of the door, receiving a second signal from a second magnetometer disposed within the door lock of the door, and detecting, based on a result of an evaluation of both the first signal and the second signal, a possible attack on the door.

A transmission structure of a rotary shaft of an electronic lock contains: a drive unit which includes a holding plate, a motor, a worm, and a driven wheel. The holding plate includes an externally threaded portion and a fixing orifice. The driven wheel includes an internally threaded orifice, two protrusions, two flat zones, two arcuate fringes, and a tooth section. The transmission unit includes a guide element, a movable element, a resilient element, a retainer, and an acting element. The guiding element has a central orifice, the movable element has a guiding orifice, and the acting element has a slidable post. The frame includes a defining orifice and is welded with the holding plate. The connection seat is received in the defining orifice and includes a retaining portion. After the connection seat is received in the defining orifice, the retaining portion is engaged with a fastening ring.
