LATCHING DEVICE AND ACCESSORY FOR VEHICLE
A latching device for releasably latching to a support member is disclosed. The latching device has a housing with a first lateral wall, a second lateral wall, and a transverse wall extending between the first lateral wall and the second lateral wall. The first lateral wall and the second lateral wall define respective recesses with a first recess portion and a second recess portion. The first recess portion has a first width, and the second recess portion has a second width. The first width is larger than the second width. The first recess portion is configured for guiding the latching device when positioning the latching device relative to the support member. The second recess portion is shaped for receiving the support member when the latching device is latched to the support member. The latching device also has a rotary latching mechanism with a jaw, a pawl, and an actuator.

Electronic key storage case
The present invention discloses an electronic key storage case, comprising a housing, a cavity defined in the housing and configured for storage, a front panel configured for password input and disposed on the front of the housing, a locking mechanism and a control circuit disposed on an inner side of the front panel, characterized in that, the locking mechanism is an electronic lock, and comprises a driving circuit, a lock tongue, and a mounting assembly connected with the lock tongue, the driving circuit is configured to receive unlocking information from the control circuit and control an action on the lock tongue, the mounting assembly comprises a lock bracket, a rotating shaft located on the lock bracket, and a locking hook spring disposed on the rotating shaft, a locking hook groove is provided on the lock tongue, and the lock tongue is matched with the locking hook spring through the driving circuit, to obtain a degree of freedom of rotating forward or reverse rotation with the rotating shaft as a central axis to form two states of the locking hook groove engaged with or separated from the locking pin. In the present invention, the key case is opened automatically in an electronic lock manner, thereby being easier to use, providing a securer lock structure, and avoiding undesirably opening.
LOCKING SYSTEM
A locking system for locking a closure element, more particularly a door, having a main body, which rotatably receives an actuation element, for arrangement on one side of the closure element and having a locking module for arrangement on the opposite side of the closure element. The actuation element has an interface for connection to the locking module. The main body has a fixed interface for connection to the locking module; and depending on the type of locking module, same can only be connected to the co-rotating interface or to both interfaces. The disclosure also relates to a closure element having such a locking system, and a method for assembling a locking system.
COOLER LOCK
A cooler access control system locks a cooler when occurrence of an event is detected that requires limiting access to the inside of the cooler. Examples of such events include the loss of power to the cooler for a predetermined period of time, the opening of the cooler door for longer than an allowed time, the loss of functionality of a temperature probe and others. In an embodiment, a service mode is supported wherein the door is left unlocked despite the occurrence of such an event, to allow a stocker or other personnel to leave the cooler door open while stocking the cooler with product.
SELF-ALIGNING MODULAR LATCH
A container is disclosed that has a housing and a lid. The lid has a planar portion and a latch that is freely movable parallel to the planar portion of the lid. The latch has a retention feature and a first reference surface that is perpendicular to the planar portion of the lid. There is a latch mechanism coupled to the housing that has an engagement element configured to engage the retention feature of the latch and a first alignment feature having a first alignment surface. The first alignment feature is configured to laterally displace the latch in a first direction such that the first reference surface aligns with the first alignment surface when the lid is brought together with the housing with the fastener laterally displaced away from the engagement element in a second direction that is opposite to the first direction.

Closure device, preferably for closing a sealing flap of an opening
A closure device having a lock element that can be locked on a mating piece, preferably for closing a sealing flap of an opening, in particular an inspection flap, preferably in a drywall construction, in particular for a wall or a ceiling is provided. A closure device is distinguished by the fact that the lock element is arranged in such a way that, preferably under the action of a spring, in a first position with respect to the mating piece it is or can be moved into a locking position and, in a second position, it reaches a position and/or a state without any blocking action.
