DOOR LOCK
The present application provides a lock (100) for a door. The lock comprises a housing (102), a lock mechanism (108), and a bolt (104). An end portion (112) of the bolt comprises a trigger (106). The lock mechanism is operable to move the bolt between a locked position in which the end portion extends through an opening in the housing and projects from the housing, and an unlocked position in which the end portion is within the housing. The lock further comprises a retraction mechanism (110), wherein actuation of trigger causes the retraction mechanism to automatically move the bolt from the locked position into the unlocked position.
Therapeutic session restraint chair
A restraint chair includes a supporting frame with a seat and a desk. A wrist capture bar is associated with the desk and is displaceable between a retracted position and an extended position. An ankle capture bar is associated with the desk pedestal and is displaceable between a disengaged position and an engaged position. Control levers positioned behind the seat are coupled with the wrist capture bar and the ankle capture bar via a link assembly. Translation of the control levers effects respective displacement of the wrist capture bar between the retracted position and the extended position and of the ankle capture bar between the disengaged position and the engaged position.
Pivotable bolt
A bolt assembly usable in a mortise lock. The assembly includes a bolt and tailpiece that are pivotable relative to one another. In one embodiment, the bolt and tailpiece are joined by a pin that permits the components to pivot relative to one another.
Tamper-resistant locking systems and methods
The present disclosure is a locking system that has an opening in a door adapted an arranged for receiving a lock bolt and a lock fixed in a wall for actuating a lock bolt adapting and arranged for being received by the opening in the door when the door is closed. The locking system further comprises a blocking strip protruding from a door jamb, the strip coupled to the door jamb and positioned adjacent the lock bolt for blocking access to the lock bolt between the door and the door jamb.
Tamper-resistant locking and notification systems for detention cells
A locking system that has an opening in a door adapted and arranged for receiving a lock bolt and a lock fixed in a wall for actuating a lock bolt adapting and arranged for being received by the opening in the door when the door is closed. Alternatively, the locking system is mounted on the exterior of the detention cell door and the adjacent exterior cell wall. The locking system further comprises a blocking strip protruding from a door jamb, the strip coupled to the door jamb, the strip coupled to the door jamb and positioned adjacent the lock bolt for blocking access to the lock bolt between the door and the door jamb. The locking system further comprises a system for monitoring and reporting the status of a detention cell door, the lock bolt, and the roller bolt.
Dual entry safety cuff port
A dual entry safety cuff port for use in a correctional facility. The dual entry safety cuff port includes a frame and a panel, the panel configured to slide within the frame between a fully open position and a closed position. The dual entry safety cuff port also includes a lock. The lock configured to allow operation of the dual entry safety cuff port from either side of the panel. The dual entry safety cuff porter further includes a flange on the panel, the flange configured to stop the panel in the fully open position.
ANTI-LIGATURE TURN PIECE
An anti-ligature handle and escutcheon mechanism mountable on a door for operating a lock for securing the door. The mechanism comprises a handle movable between open and closed positions, the handle having a smoothly curved outer surface to prevent the attachment of a ligature thereto and comprising a pivot at a first end for rotating the handle between the open and closed positions to operate the lock. An escutcheon fixed relative to a backing plate is oriented for mounting parallel to the door when the mechanism is mounted on an outer surface of the door, wherein the escutcheon surrounds the handle and defines a recessed area within which the handle pivots. The handle further has a second end including a guide which is trapped beneath and slides along an arcuate edge of the recessed area of the escutcheon to maintain flush contact between a mating surface of the handle and the backing plate to prevent ligatures from being inserted therebetween as the handle rotates to operate the lock. The mechanism further comprises a mounting plate disposed between the backing plate and an inner surface of the door when the mechanism is mounted on the outer surface of the door, the mounting plate fixed relative to the escutcheon and backing plate.
ELECTROMECHANICAL LOCK WITH MECHANICAL LATCH HOLDBACK AND REMOTE RELEASE
An electromechanical lock which is configured to provide a mechanical latch holdback feature, whereby a key is useable to retract a latch of the lock, the key can be removed, and the latch remains mechanically held back. The held back latch is remotely releasable. As such, a correctional officer can use his key to mechanically hold back the latch, such that the lock remains open. Subsequently, a control signal can be sent from a remote location causing the latch to be released and extended, such that the lock locks. This ability to remotely override the mechanical latch holdback is useful in a correctional facilityfor example, when the mechanical latch holdback has been engaged for cell doors and an emergency situation arises where a quick remote lockdown may be necessary, instead of having to perform the time-consuming task of re-locking the doors one-by-one, locally by key.
Tamper-resistant locking and notification systems for detention cells
A locking system that has an opening in a door adapted and arranged for receiving a lock bolt and a lock fixed in a wall for actuating a lock bolt adapting and arranged for being received by the opening in the door when the door is closed. Alternatively, the locking system is mounted on the exterior of the detention cell door and the adjacent exterior cell wall. The locking system further comprises a blocking strip protruding from a door jamb, the strip coupled to the door jamb, the strip coupled to the door jamb and positioned adjacent the lock bolt for blocking access to the lock bolt between the door and the door jamb. The locking system further comprises a system for monitoring and reporting the status of a detention cell door, the lock bolt, and the roller bolt.
High security anti-splash system cuffing box
A high security anti-splash cuffing box system is provided for enabling articles to pass through the access opening of a high security door or wall and for the safe hand cuffing of prisoners or detainees by personnel outside the cell. The system embodies a door frame assembly providing a sliding door movable between a locked engagement and an unlocked disengagement in a closed and an open condition relative to the access opening, while providing anti-slam functionality. A cuffing box providing an enclosure with 280-degree visibility is detachably connectable and securely engageable to the door frame assembly.
