A door lock mounted to a door includes a latch head. A receiver includes a charging circuit and is mounted to the door. A battery provides electricity required for moving the latch head between a latching position and an unlatching position or providing electricity required for permitting or not permitting movement of the latch head from the latching position to the unlatching position. A transmitter includes a wireless transmitting circuit and is mounted to a door frame to which the door is pivotably mounted. The transmitter is connected to a power supply. When the door is in an open position, the receiver is not aligned with the transmitter. When the door is in a closed position, the receiver is aligned with the transmitter, the receiver receives a radio wave from the transmitter, converts the radio wave into electricity, and stores the electricity in the battery.

A hub (10) for a lock device (104), the hub (10) comprising an outer member (12) having an outer opening structure (20); an inner member (14) having an inner opening structure (22); an intermediate member (16) having an intermediate opening structure (24); an attachment element (18) configured to be attached to the intermediate member (16), and being movable between a locking position (96) and an unlocking position (102); and a locking member (28) for rotationally locking the outer member (12) and the intermediate member (16), or for rotationally locking the inner member (14) and the intermediate member (16); wherein the hub (10) is configured such that the locking member (28) can be withdrawn from the intermediate member (16) when the attachment element (18) adopts the unlocking position (102). A lock device (104) comprising a hub (10) is also provided.

A system for providing securement of a plurality of secure portable encasements including one or more encasements each configured to engage, and subsequently disengage, inseparable interaction with a common docking unit; and one or more common docking units.

A device for a controlled locking or release of a safety-relevant, movable component (2), such as a protective door, protective cover of the like, with a movable blocking element (51) and with a self-locking drive unit (5, 17, 19, 21, 23, 27) controlling adjustment movements of the blocking element (51) between a locked position and a released position is characterized in that an actuator (33) is provided that can be moved by the drive unit (5, 17, 19, 21, 23, 27), said actuator being mechanically coupled to the blocking element for a transfer of the blocking element (51) into the released position brought about by the drive unit (5, 17, 19, 21, 23, 27) and being capable of decoupling for a transfer of the blocking element (51) into the released position brought about independently of the drive unit (5, 17, 19, 21, 23, 27).

An illustrative access control system includes a locking assembly operable in locked and unlocked states, and a drive assembly operable to actuate the locking assembly. The drive assembly includes an electromechanical actuator, and energy storage device, and a control system. The electromechanical actuator is operable, upon receiving power, to transition the locking assembly between the locked state and the unlocked state. The energy storage device is electrically coupled to the electromechanical actuator, and configured to store electrical power from the power supply when the drive assembly is coupled to the power supply. The control system is configured to couple the drive assembly to the power supply in response to a first condition, and to thereafter transmit energy only from the energy storage device to power the electromechanical actuator, based at least in part upon a level of energy stored in the energy storage device.

An electronic lock includes a latch member and a clutch mechanism mounted on the outside of the lock cylinder and including a clutch unit, a driving unit and a control module. The clutch unit includes a rotatable seat having a first engaging portion, an accessible knob, and a clutch seat having a second engaging portion. The clutch seat is movable relative to the rotatable seat between an unlock position and a lock position, where the second engaging portion engages and disengages the first engaging portion, respectively.

The present invention provides an improved electric lock that allows for electrically controlled retraction of latch bolt to allow for opening of the door in which the lock is installed. The components that allow for retraction are primarily internal to the lock and have means for conducting electrical signals to the lock to allow for remote control of the latch retraction. In some embodiments, the locks comprise an electrically controllable actuator and at least one retraction lever configured to retract the latch bolt against an applied bias. In other embodiments, the actuator can be housed within a separate housing can be configured to retract the latch bolt directly without using a retraction lever.

A removable lock core for use with a lock device having a locked state and an unlocked state is disclosed. The removeable lock core may include a cam member tailpiece which is moveable between a first position relative to a lock core body which corresponds to the lock device being in the locked state and a second position relative to a lock core body which permits removal of the removeable lock core from the lock device which corresponds to the lock device being in the unlocked state. The removeable lock core may include an electro-mechanical drive assembly which in a disengaged state is decoupled from the cam member tailpiece and in an engaged state is coupled to the cam member tailpiece. A cam lock having a locked state and an unlocked state for use with a catch is disclosed.

A conveniently enabled securement system including a portable encasement such as a backpack having locking and security features. The portable secure encasement is configured for transporting goods from place to place while ensuring their security throughout, while having a simple and efficient configuration for securing the contents within the encasement and optionally for securing the encasement itself at each location travelled to.

An electric control device for a latch includes a mounting seat having including a first compartment and a second compartment. An electric locking device includes a bracket securely mounted in the second compartment and a driving member securely mounted to the bracket. The driving member for actuating the locking member is coupled with a locking member. The locking member includes a stop portion having a protrusive end abutting a first face of the bracket without interfering with movement of the locking member. A locking cap device is pivotably connected to the mounting seat and is received in the first compartment. The locking cap device includes an inner side having a first protrusion corresponding to the stop portion. When the stop portion is located on a rotational path of the first protrusion, the locking cap device is not pivotable from a closure position to a non-closure position.
