An inductively powered door lock comprising an electric door lock equipped with a power receiving module operatively associated with one or more rechargeable batteries within the door lock and transmitting module with the door frame is provided. A kit for converting a powered door lock into an inductively powered door lock is also provided.

A wireless power supply device and method applied to an electronic lock is implemented between a power supply unit and a power receiving unit. The power supply unit is connected to an external power source and has a first radio frequency coil and a first wireless communication module. The power receiving unit is connected to an electronic lock and has a second radio frequency coil and a second wireless communication module. When the power supply unit wirelessly transmits the power provided by the external power source to the power receiving unit, the power receiving unit and the power supply unit perform a handshaking process to confirm whether they are paired objects, if yes, the power is allowed to be transmitted to the electronic lock, so that the security of wireless power supply can be improved.

One embodiment provides a charging door lock system that includes a door lock jamb connected with a first electrical component that provides a power source, and a combination unit that includes one or more rechargeable batteries. A locking bolt is connected to the combination unit. The locking bolt is integrated with a second electrical component that receives power from the power source for charging the one or more rechargeable batteries.

A multipoint lock for securing a door panel is described. The multipoint lock includes a first latch, a second latch, a first hub rotatable with at least one of a thumb-turn knob or a key, and a second hub rotatable with a handle lever. Upward rotation of the handle lever causes both rotation of the first hub and rotation of the second hub in the same rotational direction.

Disclosed herein is a shipping container that includes numerous multi-factor authentication (MFA) tie ins to provide added security to the container. In some embodiments, the shipping container is associated with a mobile user profiles within a mobile application. A retailer makes a sale, then, using a mobile application, associates the container with the destination address and the MFA details associated with the buyer's mobile application account. Once the container is loaded up, the container will not open again except for the buyer using the buyer's MFA authentication credentials.

A multipoint lock is described. The multipoint lock includes a main latch. The main latch has a latched position where the main latch is configured to extend a first distance from an unhinged edge of a door panel. The main latch is configured to be retractable toward the unhinged edge of the door panel by rotation of a latch drive hub in each of a clockwise direction and a counterclockwise direction relative to a first side of the door panel. The multipoint lock also includes at least one auxiliary latch and a deadbolt drive hub. Rotation of the deadbolt drive hub substantially simultaneously actuates the main latch and the at least one auxiliary latch.

A system and method for a door is disclosed. The system includes a frame magnetic lock assembly mounted to a door frame, and a door magnetic lock assembly mounted to a door for receiving inductively transferred power from the frame magnetic lock assembly. The door system also includes a door electronics subsystem mounted to the door that includes a power management system that provides power to the door from the inductively transferred power, and charges an energy storage element at the door from the inductively transferred power. The power management system provides power to the door from the energy storage element when the inductively transferred power is not available at the door, such as when the door is open, and resumes providing power to the door from the inductively transferred power once the inductively transferred power is restored. Once restored, some of the inductive power recharges the energy storage element.

What is presented is a power-transfer system that provides resonant inductive power from a first object to a second object, which is adjacent to the first object. The system includes a first transformer portion that is positioned on the first object and having a first core portion. The first core portion includes a transmit unit configured to transfer an electromagnetic field to the second transformer portion. The first core portion also includes first circuitry that allows the transmit unit to transfer the electromagnetic field. The second transformer portion is positioned on the second object and has a second core portion. The second core portion includes a receiver unit configured to receive the electromagnetic field. The second core portion also includes second circuitry that allows the transmit unit to transfer the electromagnetic field.

A system and method for a door system is disclosed. The system produces an inductive power transfer signal and modulates the inductive power transfer signal. The system also encodes data within the modulated inductive power transfer signal and transmits the signal at a door frame of a door. At the door, the system receives the modulated inductive power transfer signal and extracts data from the received signal, and transduces the received signal into a door power signal. The system also supports secure data transfer by encrypting the encoded data at the door frame and decrypting the extracted data at the door. As a result, the modulated inductive power transfer signal between the door frame and the door provides a secure wireless data transfer channel for configuring components at the door and/or displaying data at the door, while also providing power to components at the door.
