Disclosed are embodiments of a tapered bolt receiver for a door lock to accommodate misalignment, between a deadbolt mounted to a door, and an opposing jamb. The tapered bolt receiver can be configured to accommodate misalignment for a deadbolt having a non-tapered bolt, such as for an electromechanical smart lock having a battery stored within a battery compartment that is integrated with an enhanced bolt. Also disclosed are embodiments of a deadbolt plate pivot assembly that is pivotably mountable to a corresponding deadbolt assembly to define a plate pivot system, to accommodate a beveled door edge. An illustrative embodiment of the deadbolt plate pivot assembly includes opposing plate that captures a hinge assembly, which can include plastic plate hinges, which serve to locate the deadbolt plate pivot assembly with respect to a corresponding bolt housing, and can provide a spring force and/or constant torque when mounted to a beveled door.

An electronic lock includes a latch mechanism and a rotation assembly. The rotation assembly includes a rotator, a single sensor and a processor, the rotator can be rotated toward a first direction or a second direction to drive a latch of the latch mechanism to be extended or retracted. The sensor is provided to sense a protrusion, an auxiliary protrusion, a recess and an auxiliary recess of the rotator to output a sensing signal. The processor is electrically connected to the sensor to receive the sensing signal and is provided to distinguish whether an actuation of extension or retraction of the latch is complete according to a potential variation of the sensing signal.

An electro-mechanical lock for use with a lock device having a locked state and an unlocked state is disclosed. The electro-mechanical lock incorporates an actuation motor susceptible to lockdown and features a variety of lockdown mitigation structures and arrangements to combat the same.

A redundant actuation lock apparatus includes an interface, an electronic mechanism, and a manual mechanism. The interface manipulates lock bar(s) into a locked/unlocked position. The electronic mechanism includes an actuator and power drive. The actuator is disengageably coupled to and drives the interface. The power drive is coupled to and drives the actuator in response to a control signal. The manual mechanism includes a key input and an output. The key input receives and rotates with a mechanical key. The output disengageably couples to the interface and rotates with the mechanical key. The actuator is engaged with and the output is disengaged from the interface in an electronic mode, while the actuator is disengaged from and the output is engaged with the interface in a manual mode.

An electronic lock cylinder that may be a direct replacement for a European-style standard cylinder is disclosed. The lock cylinder may include a core, a first shaft rotatably mounted in the core, and a second shaft rotatably mounted in the core and coaxial with the first shaft. A first cam and a second cam may be each rotatably mounted in the core and coaxial with the first shaft. The first cam may include a first lug and the second cam may include a second lug, where the first lug and the second lug may each be coupled to a deadbolt. A clutch may be disposed on the first shaft and shiftable from a first position to a second position, and a motor may be disposed in the core and operatively coupled to the clutch and configured to shift the clutch from the first position to the second position. When the clutch is in the first position, the first shaft is operatively coupled to the first cam, and the second shaft is decoupled from both the first cam and the second cam, when the clutch is in the second position, both the first shaft and the second shaft are operatively coupled to the second cam. The lock includes a first shaft rotatably mounted in the core and a second shaft rotatably mounted in the core and coaxial with the first shaft. A clutch is disposed on the first shaft and rotationally fixed to the first shaft but axially shiftable. The lock also includes a slider with a finger, where the finger is engaged with the clutch, and a motor is configured to shift the slider axially between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the clutch is disengaged from the second shaft, and in the second position, the clutch is engaged with the second shaft, such that rotation of the first shaft causes rotation of the second shaft.

A smart door lock assembly includes a lock cylinder, a lock cylinder mounting block, a driving motor, and a driving control board. A driving gear is arranged on a movable end of the driving motor. The lock cylinder passes through and is mounted in the lock cylinder mounting block. A driven gear coaxial with the lock cylinder is arranged on the lock cylinder mounting block. The driven gear is driven by the driving gear. The driving control board determines whether an external input unlocking command is right and controls the driving motor to unlock the smart door lock assembly when the external input unlocking command is right. The driving motor has a virtual position in a process of driving the driving gear.

An exemplary trim assembly comprises an escutcheon, a drive spindle, a lock mechanism, a cam mechanism, and a driver. The drive spindle is mounted to the escutcheon for rotation about a longitudinal axis. The lock mechanism includes a lock gear movably mounted in the escutcheon. The cam mechanism includes a first cam defined by the escutcheon and a second cam defined by the lock gear. The driver is operable to rotate the lock gear between a first rotational position and a second rotational position. The cam mechanism is configured to longitudinally drive the lock gear from a first longitudinal position to a second longitudinal position as the lock gear rotates from the first rotational position to the second rotational position. Movement of the lock gear between the first longitudinal position and the second longitudinal position transitions the lock mechanism between a locked state and an unlocked state.

An example lock apparatus generally includes a housing, a latch spindle, a drive spindle, an electronic lock mechanism, and an override mechanism. The latch spindle is mounted for rotation relative to the housing, and is operable to actuate a latch mechanism. The drive spindle is mounted for rotation relative to the housing. The electronic lock mechanism is disposed in the housing, and is operable to selectively couple the drive spindle with the latch spindle. The override mechanism is disposed in the drive spindle, and is operable to selectively couple the drive spindle with the latch spindle.

A deadbolt lock assembly comprising a retractable and extendable deadbolt, a housing, an outside member movably mounted on the housing, the member being normally disconnected from the deadbolt, and an operator input device on the housing, the device connecting the member to the deadbolt in response to presentation of an appropriate credential, such that a force applied to the member by the operator is mechanically transmitted to the deadbolt to move the deadbolt.

The present disclosure provides systems for smart security. The system may include a smart security device, a control module, a driving module, and a mechanical structure. The control module may be configured to send a control instruction to the driving module. The driving module may be configured to drive the mechanical structure based on the control instruction, thereby performing a state switching operation of the smart security device.
