A lock device (58, 74) comprising an arrangement (10, 82), and a method of controlling a lock device (58, 74), are also provided.

The present invention discloses an electronic key storage case, comprising a housing, a cavity defined in the housing and configured for storage, a front panel configured for password input and disposed on the front of the housing, a locking mechanism and a control circuit disposed on an inner side of the front panel, characterized in that, the locking mechanism is an electronic lock, and comprises a driving circuit, a lock tongue, and a mounting assembly connected with the lock tongue, the driving circuit is configured to receive unlocking information from the control circuit and control an action on the lock tongue, the mounting assembly comprises a lock bracket, a rotating shaft located on the lock bracket, and a locking hook spring disposed on the rotating shaft, a locking hook groove is provided on the lock tongue, and the lock tongue is matched with the locking hook spring through the driving circuit, to obtain a degree of freedom of rotating forward or reverse rotation with the rotating shaft as a central axis to form two states of the locking hook groove engaged with or separated from the locking pin. In the present invention, the key case is opened automatically in an electronic lock manner, thereby being easier to use, providing a securer lock structure, and avoiding undesirably opening.

A lock includes a housing assembly, an actuatable lock assembly and a latching assembly. The actuatable lock assembly is positionable in a closed orientation and an open orientation. The latching assembly includes a latch, a cam and a motor. The latch, having a cam profile, is movable between a locked and an unlocked position. The cam is rotatably mounted and has a first follower configured to intermittently coact with the cam profile of the latch, to, in turn, move the latch between the locked position and the unlocked position. The motor is coupled to the cam. Actuation of the motor causes rotation of the cam, resulting in movement of the latch between the locked and unlocked positions. The actuatable lock assembly includes a catch member that is configured to pivot about a pivot axle, wherein the latch controls the pivoting of the catch member, selectively precluding and allowing the same.

The present invention relates to a catch mechanism for blocking a bolt to prevent unauthorized opening of a door, the catch mechanism comprising a follower for operating a bolt between a locked state in which the bolt is extended and an unlocked state in which the bolt is retracted; a catch configured to block the follower for preventing movement of the bolt in the locked state, and a control member for operating the follower and the catch, The invention also relates to a locking device comprising such a catch mechanism.

An electronic cabinet lock includes a lock housing, a lock body, a limiting member, a motor, and a main control board. The lock body and the limiting member are rotatably disposed in the lock housing, respectively. The motor is electrically connected to the main control board. The limiting member is driven by the motor through a transmission mechanism. The transmission mechanism includes a screw rod driven by the motor and a slider threadedly connected to the screw rod. The slider is slidably disposed in the lock housing, and is movably connected to the limiting member. The transmission mechanism has few components, which is a simple structure and convenient for assembly.

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 latch (10,120,200) includes a rotatable jaw (18, 124, 204) that engages and holds a striker (32,128,210) in a latched position. A rotatable pawl (28, 132, 214) in an engaged position is operative to hold the jaw in the latched position. Movement of the pawl to a disengaged position enables the jaw to move to an unlatched position and to disengage the striker. The pawl is movable from the engaged position to the disengaged position through operation of either an electrical actuator (84, 152, 236) or through movement of an actuating end (26, 142, 224) of the pawl by a cable or similar mechanical connector (36, 246).
