A lock release mechanism is disclosed. The lock release mechanism comprises a chassis adapted to receive a first lock comprising a first bolt and a second lock comprising a second bolt, the first and second lock distanced from each other, a linkage mechanism, a connector, a drive mechanism and a lever. The linkage mechanism comprises at least one arm in operative connection with at least one of the first and second lock. The connector has a first position in which the linkage mechanism is engaged and a second position in which the linkage mechanism is disengaged. The drive mechanism is operable to move the connector between the first and second positions. When the connector is in the first position, rotation of the lever causes unitary movement of the first and second bolts, and when the connector is in the second position, rotation of the lever causes movement of the second but not the first bolt.

A smart door opening system includes a latch opening mechanism configured to be received in a latch hole of a door frame and configured to push a latch of a door out of the latch hole and a hinge opening mechanism configured to move the door from a closed position to an open position. A controller is operably coupled to the latch opening mechanism and the hinge actuator. The controller is configured to cause the latch opening mechanism to push the latch out of the latch hole and the hinge opening mechanism to move the door from the closed position to the open position in response to receiving a door open signal. The system includes a network interface configured to receive the door open signal via a network, and to communicate the door open signal to the controller.

The intelligent electronic control structure includes a PCB (printed circuit board), a motor, a scalable suite and a second round rotary table, wherein: one end of the scalable suite is fixedly connected with the motor, the other end of the scalable suite is fixedly connected with the second round rotary table, an arched guide rail which is fitted with the second round rotary table is located on the other surface of the springback lock tongue.

Systems and methods are presented for standardizing delivery of products in an online marketplace using one or more locker systems. In some embodiments, a system of lockers is presented. The locker system may be configured to store one or more products sold in an online marketplace. The locker system may also include a processor coupled to the one or more lockers and configured to generate access code information for a buyer to enable access to a locker storing the product. One or more sensors may be coupled to the one or more lockers and configured to examine the product for a level of product quality. A transmitter of the system may be configured to transmit the access code information to the buyer. The system can later accept the access code information inputted from the buyer and open the locker storing the product after receiving the access code information.

The invention relates to stationary locking devices for electrical vehicles of individual mobility and can be applied for transportation systems. The technical result, which the invention is aimed at, is to provide the possibility of powering the electric locking mechanism from the on-board network of an electric vehicle of individual mobility that is blocked by a stationary locking module. The essence of the invention is a stationary locking module for electric vehicles of individual mobility, comprising an electrical locking mechanism, wherein this stationary locking module has a contact element for powering the electric locking mechanism from the on-board network of the lockable electric vehicle of individual mobility.

An arrangement (10, 82) for locking and unlocking a lock device (58, 74), the arrangement (10, 82) comprising a transfer element (12) movable between a protruded position (42) and a retracted position (56); a core member (14) of soft magnetic material, the core member (14) comprising a coil section (20); an electric coil (16) wound around the coil section (20); and a blocking member (48) comprising a magnet (18), the blocking member (48) being movable between a blocking position (50), in which the magnet (18) establishes a magnetic circuit through the coil section (20) and the blocking member (48) blocks movement of the transfer element (12) to the retracted position (56), and an unblocking position (54), in which the magnet (18) establishes a magnetic circuit through the coil section (20) and the blocking member (48) unblocks movement of the transfer element (12) to the retracted position (56). A lock device (58, 74) comprising an arrangement (10, 82), and a method of controlling a lock device (58, 74), are also provided.

An electronic lock includes an input apparatus. The input apparatus includes a keypad module and a processor module. The keypad module includes plural button devices arranged in plural rows and in plural columns. The processor module includes a signal-processing unit configured to, when operating in a work mode, repeatedly perform an emission process of inputting a detection signal to each column of button devices, and repeatedly perform a scan process to detect, for each row of button devices, the detection signal outputted from any row of button devices. The detection signal includes a pulse wave composed of plural pulses. The signal-processing unit is further configured to generate and output an input signal corresponding to one of the button devices when detecting the detection signal.

A wireless electromechanical lock with one or more of an internal antenna, touch activation, and/or a light communication device that acts as a user interface. In some embodiments, the lock utilizes an antenna near the exterior face of the lockset, designed inside the metal body of the lockset itself. A light communication device is provided in some embodiments to communicate information, visually, to the user via animations and dynamic displays of light. In some embodiments, the lockset includes a touch activation capability, which can be used to lock/unlock the lock and/or otherwise provide input.
