Door lock assembly for a dwelling
A door lock assembly for use with a door having a frame element that includes a main body and a pair of opposed sides that forms a channel therebetween. One of the sides of the main body has a connector portion. The assembly also includes a movable locking assembly that is coupled to the connector portion of the frame element and has one or more elongated locking elements that is movable between a locked position and an unlocked position. The assembly also includes a latch assembly configured for coupling a door to a door frame, and if desired an actuator assembly.
QUICK RELEASE LATCH
A latch having a support bracket having a guide slot formed in a bottom surface. A linkage at least partially received within the guide slot and a handle coupled to the linkage transitionable between an open position and a closed position. A pin releasably coupled to the linkage such that when the handle is in the closed position the pin is coupled to the linkage and in the open position the pin is removable from the linkage. As the handle transitions from the open position to the closed position, the linkage moves within the guide slot.
Lid lock device
A lid lock device includes: a housing fixed to a vehicle; a lock member assembled to the housing and movable between a lock position and a lock releasing position; a motor assembled to the housing and driving the lock member; a worm gear and a worm wheel assembled to the housing and engaged with each other to transmit power of the motor to the lock member; a wheel sidewall provided in the worm wheel, formed by bending a band plate in an arc or circular shape, having a gear portion engaged with the worm gear on the wheel sidewall, and having a gear rear side surface facing a center side of the worm wheel on the wheel sidewall; and a deformation restriction protrusion provided in the housing, the deformation restriction protrusion restricting movement toward the inside of the wheel sidewall.
Portable drawer and door lock for retrofit applications
A lock for retrofitting onto a drawer or a door includes a drawer having a front panel. The drawer slidingly engages an item of furniture having a front face that is positioned above the front panel when the drawer is closed. A bracket has a vertically disposed flat front plate, a horizontally disposed flat top plate, a vertically disposed fiat back plate, and a horizontally disposed motor platform that extends horizontally into an interior of the drawer. A motor having an output shaft is mounted on the motor platform. A latch supported by the motor platform is engaged by the output shaft. The latch is retracted when the drawer is unlocked and is extended to engage an interior side of the front panel of the furniture item when the drawer is locked.
Mechanical Closure Having a Locking Device
The invention relates to a lock device, having a first connecting module and a second connecting module. The first connecting module can here be arranged in a closing direction on the second connecting module and is mechanically catch-lockingly engaged in a closing position with the second connecting module, and the first connecting module can be detached from the second connecting module by a movement of the first connecting module or of a part of the first connecting module in an opening direction, which differs from the closing direction. Here, a locking device (7; 9, 9a-f) is provided to prevent a movement of the first connecting module (1) or of the part (1a) of the first connecting module (1) in the opening direction (Y), when the first connecting module (1) and the second connecting module (2) are positioned in the closing position, wherein the locking device (7, 9, 9a-f; 100, 101, 102; 206, 207) can be unlocked to move the first connecting module (1) or the part (1a) of the first connecting module (1) in the opening direction (Y).
Magnetic gate latch
A magnetic gate latch comprises magnetic materials and a latching mechanism attracted into a keeper when the gate latch is closed by a first magnetic force and retained in a unlatched position by a second magnetic force. For example, the latching mechanism comprises a pin without a spring or other biasing mechanism biasing the spring in a direction opposite of a magnet in the keeper assembly. In one example, the pin comprises a magnet on an end of the pin opposite from the keeper assembly, which is attracted toward a ferromagnetic material when the pin is retracted into the housing.
Robotic safety stop for automated storage library
A safety stop mechanism for an automated storage library in which a connector has first and second ends. The first end is configured to contact a door of the automated storage library when the door is in at least a first position. A safety stop is connected to the second end of the connector and adapted to move from a down position to an up position. The safety stop is in the down position when the door is in the first position allowing for travel of the robotic accessor over the safety stop.
Locking member, door stop, and rod locking system
A locking member for locking a rod in a path for the rod to pass through, wherein the path is formed to have a substantially heart shape, wherein the locking member includes a speed regulation path portion for regulating entrance speed by causing the rod that enters the path to fluctuate, and a locking portion for locking the rod whose entering speed is regulated, wherein the speed regulation path portion extends in a vertical direction that is perpendicular to a width direction of the locking member, and the speed regulation path portion includes rod receiving portions that are disposed at a start edge and an end edge, wherein the rod receiving portions are for regulating the entering speed by receiving the fluctuation in a forward and backward direction of the rod that enters the speed regulation path portion.
Motor gear drive release
Mechanically or electromechanically positioning a deadbolt used to lock or unlock a door is disclosed. An electromechanical lock can include a deadbolt to be positioned to lock or unlock a door. The deadbolt can be mechanically positioned based on the rotation of a paddle of the electromechanical lock or electromechanically positioned via a motor being turned on to position the deadbolt. A disengagement mechanism can disengage an engagement cog from a worm gear hub of a gear train of the motor upon the mechanical positioning, but remain engaged upon the electromechanical positioning.
Mechanical closure having a locking device
The invention relates to a lock device, having a first connecting module and a second connecting module. The first connecting module can here be arranged in a closing direction on the second connecting module and is mechanically catch-lockingly engaged in a closing position with the second connecting module, and the first connecting module can be detached from the second connecting module by a movement of the first connecting module or of a part of the first connecting module in an opening direction, which differs from the closing direction. Here, a locking device (7; 9, 9a-f) is provided to prevent a movement of the first connecting module (1) or of the part (1a) of the first connecting module (1) in the opening direction (Y), when the first connecting module (1) and the second connecting module (2) are positioned in the closing position, wherein the locking device (7, 9, 9a-f; 100, 101, 102; 206, 207) can be unlocked to move the first connecting module (1) or the part (1a) of the first connecting module (1) in the opening direction (Y).
