A trap for large animals. The system utilizes multi-containment areas for improved efficiency in herd animal trapping. The outer containment zone of the system is designed in such a way to promote animals further into the inner containment zone. The improved efficiency lowers overall cost of trap operation in terms of time, consumable bait replenishment and number of attempts on target animal groups. The system allows for independent and remote actuation of containment zone gates. Data is transmitted to a remote user and remote actuation of attracting or deterring audio can be done during trapping process. The architecture of the trap dissuades animals capable of jumping from doing so over the containment walls.

The invention belongs to the technical field of protective articles for infants and young children, and particularly relates to a fence gate limiting mechanism, a fence gate assembly and a fence gate limiting method which can be suitable for protective devices such as fence gates. In the invention, the traditional dual-operation unlocking is transformed into two-stage unlocking, which eliminates the occurrence of unauthorized opening of the gate assembly by infants and young children. The invention also provides a novel connection mechanism with desirable structural strength and connection strength, which reduces the labor intensity and improves the assembly efficiency in production, assembly and maintenance.

A surface-mountable electric strike having a keeper arranged to pivot about a first shaft extending in a longitudinal direction; a lock lever for locking the keeper in a door-locking position, the lock lever being arranged to pivot about a second shaft extending in a direction that is transverse to the longitudinal direction and parallel to the backside of the strike; and an actuation mechanism for actuating the lock lever, the actuation mechanism comprising an electromagnet that is situated next to the lock lever in a direction which is substantially perpendicular to the backside of the strike thereby enabling the electromagnet to act directly upon the lock lever providing a simple construction. Moreover, the orientation of the second shaft enables arranging the lock lever, and the electromagnet, above and/or underneath the keeper, thereby reducing the total depth of the strike.

A playpen door, including a door frame; a door body movably mounted on the door frame; and a detection assembly mounted on the door frame and the door body and configured to detect open or closed state of the door body. The door body is hinged to the door frame. A locking assembly is arranged between the door body and the door frame. The locking assembly may be opened by a switch. The detection assembly is mounted away from a position where the door body is hinged to the door frame. When the door body rotates relative to the door frame, the detection assembly may be triggered, at which time the door body may be sensed to be open. When the door body returns to the closed position again after opening, the detection assembly may be triggered, at which time the door body may be sensed to be closed.

A mounting assembly comprising: a bracket; a mounting part; and a height adjustment mechanism to vary the position of the mounting part with respect to the bracket in the vertical direction. The height adjustment mechanism comprises: a set of interlocking elements; an arm connected to the bracket and having a protrusion that is moveable in a depth direction with respect to the bracket between a retracted position and a locking position in which the free end interlocks with an interlocking element; and at least one set screw extending along the vertical direction. Rotating the set screw moves the set screw in the vertical direction and pushes the protrusion from its retracted position to its locking position.

A magnetic latch for fastening a closure member to a support. The magnetic latch comprises a latch bolt assembly comprising: a first elongated housing configured to be mounted with its rear side facing either the closure member or the support; a second housing connected to and positioned underneath the first housing, the second housing being rotatable with respect to the first housing around the vertical direction between a first rotational position in which the latch bolt assembly is operable for a right-handed closure member and a second rotational position in which the latch bolt assembly is operable for a left-handed closure member; and a latch bolt mounted in the second housing. The different rotational positions of the second housing allow using a horizontally moveable latch bolt while retaining a symmetrical placement on the closure system irrespective of the handedness of the closure member.

A keyless gate latch to selectively latch a gate to a post wherein the keyless gate latch comprises a keeper assembly including a keeper member having a keeper stop movable between a latched position and an unlatched position normally biased in the latched position and a latch assembly including an actuator lever rotatably between a latched position and an unlatched position at least partially disposed within a housing and including a latch stop such that when the latch member and the actuator lever are each in the latched position, the keeper stop and the latch stop when engaged with each other prevent the gate from being opened and when the actuator lever is rotated from the latched position to the unlatched position the actuator lever engages the latch member moving the latch member from the latched position to the unlatched position preventing the keeper stop from engaging the latch stop allowing the gate to be opened.

A double lock, dual action gravity latch device to secure a gate in a closed position comprising a latch assembly including a pivotal latch member movable between a latched and unlatched position, a keeper assembly including a striker pin to maintain the gate in the closed position when the pivotal latch member in the latched position, a latch lock assembly including a lock assembly with a first lock and a second lock each independently movable between a locked position and an unlocked position disposed on opposite sides of the gate to selectively move a lock subassembly from a locked position to an unlocked position when either the first lock or second lock is moved from the locked position to the unlocked position, and move the lock subassembly from the unlocked position to the locked position when the unlocked lock is moved from the unlocked position to the locked position and a first latch actuator and a second latch actuator each movable between a first position and a second position disposed on opposite sides of the gate to selectively move the pivotal latch member when either the first lock or the second lock is moved from the locked position to the unlocked position moving the lock subassembly from the locked position to the unlocked position such that when either the first actuator assembly or the second actuator assembly is moved from the first position to the second position the pivotal latch member is moved from the latched position to the unlatched position to allow the gate to be opened.

A safety gate includes a first column, disposed on a first side of an elevator shaft, a second column, disposed on a second side of the elevator shaft, a first gate panel, and a second gate panel. The first gate panel is coupled to the first column via a first locking hinge. The second gate panel is coupled to the second column via a second locking hinge.

A magnetic latch for fastening a closure member to a support. The magnetic latch comprises a latch bolt assembly having: an elongated frame (32); a latch bolt moveable between a latching position and a retracted position; a latch bolt operating mechanism having a driving part (36) which is moveable between a rest position and an actuated position; and a locking mechanism to lock the driving part in its rest position. The locking mechanism comprises: a key actuated cylinder (51) having a rotary driving bit (52) and a locking member (54, 59, 61) mounted on the frame and moveable between an unlocking position in which the driving part is moveable, and a locking position in which, when the driving part is in its rest position, it locks the driving part in its rest position, the rotary driving bit being arranged to engage the locking member.
