A latch arrangement for fastening a panel of a door or a window to a frame element is provided. The latch arrangement includes a locking element mounted on the frame element and displaceable between a locked position in which the locking element can be engaged with a depression formed on the panel locking thereby the panel to the frame element, and an unlocked position in which the locking element can be disengaged from the depression on the panel unlocking thereby the panel from the frame element; an actuating mechanism including a manually operable handle, the actuating mechanism being mounted on the panel and being configured to selectively engage the locking element and to displace the locking element away from the depression to the unlocked position.

A securing mechanism for a door, especially the door of a device, comprising a first closure element; an arresting structure disposed on the first closure element; a second closure element configured for latching with the arresting structure, wherein for unlatching purposes, the second closure element is rotatable relative to the first closure element; and a lever support that is movable relative to the second closure element such that it is transferable between a release position, in which it cancels a latching of the second closure element with the arresting structure, and a latching position in which the latching of the second closure element with the arresting structure is maintained. The lever support is also movable relative to the first closure element.

An actuator-controlled strike comprising a housing disposable within a doorframe and including a cavity for a spring latch and a dead latch of a mortise-type lockset. A keeper is pivotably mounted within the chamber to engage the spring latch. A pivotably mounted kicker cooperates with the keeper. A pivotably mounted dead latch release is supported by the keeper when the spring latch is within the strike. The keeper is released by the actuator and rotates into a position to ramp the spring latch out of the strike, also allowing the dead latch release to release the dead latch into the cavity, allowing the spring latch to be ramped out of the strike. Pivoting the keeper causes the kicker to urge the spring latch onto an exit ramp on a face of the keeper. The dead latch release can be installed in a plurality of different locations in the housing.

The present invention relates to doors for intensive care units and more particularly to an intensive care unit door control system. In particular, the invention relates to a door management system for an intensive care unit comprising at least one control unit configured to receive signals from at least one external device and to control the opening and closing of the automatic intensive care unit doors based on the received signals.

The disclosure relates to a child safety lock mechanism for a cupboard, the cupboard includes at least one movable door and fixed frame, the locking mechanical system includes an external section arranged on the outside of the cupboard door, an internal section secured to a part of the frame, a latching means and a releasing means, wherein the external section is removably lockable to the internal section by the latching means and releasable by the releasing means. The latching means and releasing means are mutually engageable to release the latch, and extend from a first surface of the door to a second surface of the door to effect the engagement.

An electronic striker for releasing a door or access panel includes a housing defining an opening and a passageway extending from the opening for receiving a pawl on the door or access panel. A plunger is coupled to the housing and is mounted for movement within the passageway. A motor is configured for moving the plunger between a withdrawn position, in which the plunger is withdrawn within the passageway, and a deployed position, in which the plunger is extended within the passageway relative to the withdrawn position. The plunger is configured to move the pawl out of the passageway upon moving the plunger from the withdrawn position to the deployed position, thereby releasing the door or access panel from the passageway.

The dead latch release can be installed in a plurality of different locations in the housing.

A sliding-door system includes a sliding door, a door frame, and a locking system, wherein in a locked state, a first latch engages in an engagement notch of an anchor body locking the sliding door, and a bolt engages on the anchor body in an engagement region to prevent the anchor body from rotating about a rotational axis. An actuator moves the bolt out of the engagement region to switch the locking system from the locked state into an open state by rotating the anchor body about the rotational axis. A locking system emergency opening function is actuated by applying an emergency activation force to a first door leaf to move a lock substantially perpendicular to a surface of the first door leaf such that the engagement notch is slid out of the engagement region to enable the sliding door to open.

A locking mechanism associated with a keeper of an electric strike is provided. The mechanism comprises a dual shaft actuator, first and second worm cams coupled to respective shafts, and first and second plungers. A first end portion of first and second resilient members are operably engaged with first and second worm cams, and a second end portion is fixedly coupled with respective first and second plungers. When the actuator rotates the shafts in a first rotational direction, the first and second worm gears move the first and second resilient members toward one another to place the first and the second plungers in a retracted position. When the actuator rotates the first and second shafts in a second rotational direction, the first and second worm gears move the first and second resilient members away from one another to thereby place the first and second plungers in an extended position.
