Driving assembly for a lever-type door lock
Disclosed is a lever-type door lock driving assembly which can be installed inside a mounting hole to enable miniaturization of the device, ensure general versatility, and prevent a fragile area from being generated inside the door. The present invention relates to a driving assembly for a lever-type door lock arranged in an installation hole to drive a latch operating body, wherein the mounting assembly comprise a mounting module having a truncated disc shape and having at least one driving plate therein; and a motor unit mounted on the truncated area of the mounting module and having a disk shape in a state of being coupled to the mounting module.
Clutch engagement assembly of door lock and driving device thereof
A clutch engagement assembly for a door lock device includes a first shaft having at an end thereof an insertion end portion in which a channel is formed; a second drive shaft having a hollow engagement end portion into which the insertion end portion of the first shaft is inserted; a driving member which provides a driving force; and a pin member that is installed in a state of being elastically supported in the engagement end portion of the second shaft and is movable by the driving member so as to extending through (be inserted in) at least a part of the first shaft and at least a part of the second shaft, thereby causing a clutch engagement or a disengagement between a first shaft and a second shaft. The clutch engagement assembly may provide a relatively small size structure of the door lock device and a firm engagement force.
Powered sash lock and control systems therefor
A system for locking a position of an operable sash in a window frame has a motor, a rotating element connected to the motor, and a sweep cam. The sweep cam is configured to rotatably engage a keeper disposed on a sash disposed opposite the operable sash. A spur gear operatively connects the rotating element to the sweep cam.
Latching device and sliding door using same
The present invention provides a latching device and a sliding door using the same. The latching device includes two displacement components and two latching components arranged on the main body of the sliding door. The two displacement components are connected to each other and respectively arranged to drive the two latching components to displace. The two displacement components are operated through the lateral side and the edge side of the sliding door, respectively. The user can latch or unlatch the sliding door by operations of displacing the at least two displacement components when the sliding door is in a closed state or a completely open state. In addition, when a concealed sliding door is fully opened and the two sides are both hidden in the walls, the sliding door can be latched or unlatched by operating the latching device through the edge side of the sliding door.
COOLER AND FREEZER LOCK
A cooler and freezer access control system locks a cooler or freezer when occurrence of an event is detected that requires limiting access to the inside of the cooler or freezer. Examples of such events include the loss of power to the cooler or freezer for a predetermined period of time, the opening of the cooler or freezer door for longer than an allowed time, the loss of functionality of a temperature probe and others. In an embodiment, a service mode is supported wherein the door is left unlocked despite the occurrence of such an event, to allow a stocker or other personnel to leave the cooler or freezer door open while stocking the cooler or freezer with product.
Driven lock systems, fenestration units and methods
Driven lock systems, fenestration units including the driven lock systems, and methods of operating the driven lock systems are described herein. The driven lock systems as described herein offer a combination of powered or motorized operation in addition to manual operation, with the opportunity for a user to manually switch the lock assembly between its locked and unlocked states as needed. The need for manual operation may arise if, for example, the system loses power, the controls of the system are unavailable, etc.
COOLER LOCK
A cooler access control system locks a cooler when occurrence of an event is detected that requires limiting access to the inside of the cooler. Examples of such events include the loss of power to the cooler for a predetermined period of time, the opening of the cooler door for longer than an allowed time, the loss of functionality of a temperature probe and others. In an embodiment, a service mode is supported wherein the door is left unlocked despite the occurrence of such an event, to allow a stocker or other personnel to leave the cooler door open while stocking the cooler with product.
SELF-ALIGNING MODULAR LATCH
A container is disclosed that has a housing and a lid. The lid has a planar portion and a latch that is freely movable parallel to the planar portion of the lid. The latch has a retention feature and a first reference surface that is perpendicular to the planar portion of the lid. There is a latch mechanism coupled to the housing that has an engagement element configured to engage the retention feature of the latch and a first alignment feature having a first alignment surface. The first alignment feature is configured to laterally displace the latch in a first direction such that the first reference surface aligns with the first alignment surface when the lid is brought together with the housing with the fastener laterally displaced away from the engagement element in a second direction that is opposite to the first direction.
PERSONS WITH REDUCED MOBILITY (PRM) SUITE ACCESS WALL ASSEMBLY
A wall assembly for providing access to an aircraft passenger suite from an aisle area is disclosed. The wall assembly includes a base. The wall assembly includes a wall operationally coupled to the base and slidable with respect to the base between an open position and a closed position, the wall configured to be linearly slidable along a forward direction between the open position and the closed position. The wall assembly includes a dual latch system configured to selectively prevent a movement of the wall absent a simultaneous operation of multiple latches, the dual latch system comprising an upper latch; and a lower latch. The dual latch system configured to allow for the movement of the wall when the dual latch system is in an operated state but not necessarily in the unoperated state.
Self-aligning modular latch
A container is disclosed that has a housing and a lid. The lid has a planar portion and a latch that is freely movable parallel to the planar portion of the lid. The latch has a retention feature and a first reference surface that is perpendicular to the planar portion of the lid. There is a latch mechanism coupled to the housing that has an engagement element configured to engage the retention feature of the latch and a first alignment feature having a first alignment surface. The first alignment feature is configured to laterally displace the latch in a first direction such that the first reference surface aligns with the first alignment surface when the lid is brought together with the housing with the fastener laterally displaced away from the engagement element in a second direction that is opposite to the first direction.
