LOCKING DEVICE
A locking device including: a locking pin movable in a linear direction; a tappet movable in the linear direction; and a clamping device connecting the tappet to the locking pin. Wherein the clamping device having an inner spring and an outer spring arranged coaxially relative to each other in the linear direction, and the inner spring is at least partially surrounded by the outer spring in a radial direction orthogonal to the linear direction.
LATCH FITTING
The invention relates to a child safety locking mechanism 1 for a cupboard or drawer 2 comprising at least one movable door or drawer 3 and a fixed frame 2, and the locking mechanism 1 comprising: a latch assembly 5 and a catch part 4 each fitted on the movable door or drawer 3 and fixed frame, the latch assembly 5 including a latching arm 8 and a latching hook 9, and the catch part including a catch arm 6. The latching hook 9 is aligned to abut against the catch arm 6 in a locked position to prevent the movable door from being fully opened, wherein the latching arm is movable to an unlocked position in which the latching hook 9 is no longer aligned to abut against the catch arm 6 and the movable door or drawer 3 may be opened. Motor driven automatic release means are provided which are remotely actuatable to automatically move the latching arm 8 to the unlocked position when the automatic release means are actuated by a user. The latching arm 8 is moved downwards automatically by the remote actuation of the release arm 20 out of alignment with the catch arm 6. The release arm 20 is mounted on an axle which is rotated by a motor to just a sufficient extent to act on the latch arm 8 to move it out of alignment with the catch arm 6. The latch assembly 5 includes control means for the motor in the form of a circuit board, which also includes a Bluetooth or other radio wave receiver, located in a latch assembly casing 22.
VIDEO RECORDING TRIGGERED BY A SMART LOCK DEVICE
An intelligent door lock system 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 camera is coupled to or part of the intelligent door lock system. The camera is configured to record in response to door lock status.
Socket and door with same
A socket includes: an input terminal configured to be electrically connected to an AC power source; an output terminal configured to output an AC signal of the AC power supply; a switch circuit electrically connected between the input terminal and the output terminal; a step-down circuit electrically connected to the input terminal and configured to reduce the amplitude of the AC signal; a shaping circuit electrically connected to the step-down circuit and configured to convert the AC signal with reduced amplitude into a shaped signal; and a control circuit electrically connected to the shaping circuit and the switch circuit and configured to control the switch circuit based on the shaping signal to enable the switch circuit performs switching operation only when the AC signal is at zero potential. A door includes the socket.
Multifunction lock unit
A multifunction lock unit is disclosed. The unit is a single, contained unit that includes a base box near an overhead door and a deadbolt in the base box that protrudes into a hole in the overhead door to lock the overhead door. The deadbolt is extendable into the hole and retractable out of the hole. The unit also includes an actuator in the base box coupled to the deadbolt and configured to extend and retract the deadbolt. There is a wireless communication module that can receive a signal from a control unit to extend or retract the deadbolt via the actuator, and send a signal to the motor unit to raise or lower the overhead door. The unit also has a light on the base box for displaying at least two colors of light to show a status of the unit.
DOOR WITH AUTOMATIC OPENING AND CLOSING
Door with automatic opening and closing, including a door panel, a support column fixed to the door panel and suitable for rotating around its longitudinal axis in such a way to move the door panel between two end-of-travel positions, an electric motor for actuating the support column and a drive unit for transmitting the motion from the electric motor to the support column. The drive unit has a first drive element connected to the electric motor and a second drive element connected to the support column, wherein the drive unit includes a clutch unit that is interposed between the first drive element and the electric motor or between the second drive element and the support column. The door also has an automatic lock that completes the automation of the door by detectors.
Solenoid actuated locking system
A locking system and a method for using the same are provided. The locking system including a solenoid actuated locking mechanism. The locking mechanism having an armature coupled to a first end of a bell crank and a locking pin coupled to a second end of the bell crank. The activation of the solenoid linearly drives the armature in a first direction along a first axis and the locking pin in a first direction along a second axis where the first axis is generally perpendicular to the second axis.
Method and apparatus for deadbolt position sensing
The present disclosure is directed to an electronic deadbolt control system including a deadbolt configured to extend or retract between a locked position and an unlocked position, respectively. An output shaft connected between a final gear and the deadbolt is configured to transmit an actuation force to the deadbolt from an electric motor. A first magnet and a second magnet are associated with the final gear to define a home position for either a left hand deadbolt or a right hand deadbolt. A cam is positioned on the output shaft to engage with a switch such that, in combination with a threshold current motor output, the control system determines whether the deadbolt is in an extended position or a retracted position. A thumb-turn shaft is disengaged from the final gear in the home position to permit manual actuation of a thumb-turn.
BARRIER CONTROL SYSTEM
A barrier control system running a program thereon, the barrier control system including a main body, a control unit disposed within at least a portion of the main body to execute the program to control operations of the main body, and at least one control device connected to the control unit to control operations of the main body through the control unit based on the program.
Lock
Systems, devices, and methods of locking a lockable volume. The lock may comprise a bolt and a slider. The slider moves linearly to move the bolt in position to engage a securement feature. The engagement of the bolt with the securement feature secures the securement feature, thereby locking the door to which the securement feature is attached.
