A window fastener including: a base configured for connection to a window sash; a handle carrying a latching tongue, pivotally connected to the base between a latched position and an unlatched position; and an interface between the base and the handle, wherein the interface causes the latching tongue to move axially closer to the base when the handle pivots from the unlatched position to the latched position; and wherein the interface causes the latching tongue to move axially away from the base when the handle pivots from the latched position to the unlatched position.

Mobile accommodation comprising a wall (10) with a wall opening (5) in which an openable window is arranged, which window is provided with closing means for keeping the window in a closed position. The closing means comprise a closure (30) with a handle (34) which is connected for rotation about a pivot axis (III) to the window, and with a protrusion (35) which, in a first position of the closure round the pivot axis, is in closing co-action with a shoulder on the edge of the wall opening. In a second position of the handle about the pivot axis, the protrusion is disengaged from the shoulder in order to release the window. The pivot axis (III) makes an obtuse angle with the window, which angle opens toward a hinge side of the window. In the first position the handle is oriented substantially parallel (I) to the window and in the second position points at an acute angle (a) toward the hinge side of the window.

A fenestration assembly includes a low-profile screen assembly including a fenestration frame and a sash movably coupled with the fenestration frame. The sash includes a daylight opening having a daylight opening profile. The low-profile screen assembly is coupled with one or more of the fenestration frame or the sash. The low-profile screen assembly includes a screen panel having a screen frame coupled along one or more of the sash or the fenestration frame, and the screen frame includes a screen frame inner perimeter. A screen membrane spans the screen frame and is coupled with the screen frame. The screen frame inner perimeter is outside of the daylight opening profile.

A locking mechanism for a door panel to be positioned within and out of blocking relationship with an opening. Mechanism includes a deadbolt rotatably connected to the wall and having a curved configuration and a locking bracket connected to the door panel. The locking bracket extends from the door panel in an angular direction with respect to a plane of door panel. With door panel in a closed position and deadbolt in a first position, the locking bracket extends through the curved configuration. Deadbolt is in blocking relationship with the locking bracket in a direction along a plane of the door panel and is not in blocking relationship in a direction along the locking bracket. With door panel in closed position, deadbolt is in a second position not in blocking relationship with the locking bracket permitting door panel to move in a direction along a plane of the door panel.

A vehicle rear door indicator system. The system includes a contact switch disposed along a rear door of a vehicle. Opening the rear door of the vehicle opens an electrical circuit. The electrical circuit is operably connected to a display. When the electrical circuit is opened the display can show the status of the rear door of the vehicle. A motion sensor is disposed along a desired surface of the vehicle such that the motion sensor can detect when the rear door is in motion. The motion sensor is connected to the display. When the motion sensor detects movement of the rear door the display can alert a user via a movement indicator on the display. The vehicle rear door indicator system can be used to alert a user when the rear door of a vehicle is open, closed, or in motion.

A door assembly includes a door panel having a first pair of bearings secured to a top portion of the door panel and a second pair of bearings secured to a bottom portion of the door panel. A wall having an opening which extends through the wall wherein a first rail track extends along a first end portion of the opening having a first opening and a second rail track extends along a second end portion of the opening having a second opening. At least one hinge blocking assembly includes a first bracket connected to the wall and a second bracket wherein the second bracket is rotatably mounted to the first bracket about a fixed axis of rotation defined by the at least one hinge blocking assembly wherein with the second bracket in a first position the second bracket extends away from the first bracket.

There is a sweep lock having a housing with a sweep connected to the bottom surface of the housing. The sweep has a handle portion and a tongue portion, and is adapted to move from a first position to a second position, whereby said tongue is in an extended position in one of said first and second positions. The housing has a spring means having first and second ends. The first end is secured to the housing, and the second end is secured to the sweep.

A safety device with a safety switch and an actuator that is arranged movably relative to said safety switch. A transponder is arranged in the actuator, and a reading unit is arranged in the safety switch. A locking position of the actuator is controlled by the fact that transponder signals of the transponder are detected in the reading unit. The safety switch has a locking element with an influencing element. The actuator has a sensor coupled with the transponder. In the locking position of the actuator the locking element is insertable into a receptacle of the actuator. This effects the locking of the actuator. This locking is controlled in that the influencing element is only within the range of influence of the sensor when the locking element is inserted into the receptacle. Said sensor generates a sensor signal via which the transponder signals sent by the transponder are modified.

An openable side window for a motor vehicle is provided having an openable side window which covers a lateral vehicle opening when in its closed position and can be locked by means of a securing device, the securing device comprising a pivotable securing handle which can be pivoted between an unlocked position and a locked position and has an operating arm and a latch arm which, when in the locked position, interacts with a latch counterpart, wherein the latch arm comprises a functional element which is pre-loaded radially outward with respect to a pivot axis of the securing handle.

A door assembly includes a door panel having a first pair of bearings secured to a top portion of the door panel and a second pair of bearings secured to a bottom portion of the door panel. A wall having an opening which extends through the wall wherein a first rail track extends along a first end portion of the opening having a first opening and a second rail track extends along a second end portion of the opening having a second opening. At least one hinge blocking assembly includes a first bracket connected to the wall and a second bracket wherein the second bracket is rotatably mounted to the first bracket about a fixed axis of rotation defined by the at least one hinge blocking assembly wherein with the second bracket in a first position the second bracket extends away from the first bracket.
