A multifunction securing mechanism for a compartment closable by a door and includes a key cylinder, a latching assembly which may be a two-point latching assembly movable between a latching and an unlatching position, a rotatable member configured for a lazy-cam function connecting the key cylinder and latching assembly, at least one catch located on a surface adjacent the outside of the door, and a bar pivotally mounted to the outside of the door and movable between a first closed position and a second opened position. A first release mechanism is located on an interior side of the door for changing a positon of the latching assembly, and a second release mechanism is located on the interior side of the door for changing a position of the bar, both for allowing a user to open a latched and secured door from the inside.

A rolling door lock for a roll-up door, and more particularly a roll-up door that includes a latching handle assembly fitted to the exterior surface of a roll-up door. The latching handle assembly includes a handle and a hook. The rolling door lock attaches to the hook and handle of the latching handle assembly to prevent forced opening of the roll-up door. The rolling door lock includes a main body and a detachable bracket. The main body includes a hook securing portion and a pocket. The pocket includes a slot. During normal use the hook securing portion of the rolling door lock secures the hook of the latching handle assembly, and the detachable bracket secures the handle of the latching handle assembly. The lock mechanism locks the detachable bracket with the handle secured therein to the pocket.

A cooking appliance includes a main body having a cooking chamber therein and open at a front side thereof, a door provided to the front side of the main body to open or close the cooking chamber, a door button capable of being pressed by user manipulation and to move to a pressed position to allow the door to be opened, and a locking mechanism selectively restricting movement of the door button. The locking mechanism includes a locking rod allowing change of a posture thereof to a locking posture restricting movement of the door button to the pressed position and an unlocking posture allowing movement of the door button to the pressed position; and a manipulation button capable of being pressed by user manipulation and changing the posture of the locking rod from the locking posture to the unlocking posture when pressed by user manipulation.

A locking system and method for a movable freight container door comprises an electronic module and a mechanical lock element. The mechanical lock element comprises a shaft, at least of portion of which is configured to be inserted through an aperture in the electronic module, across a door handle retention region, and into a cavity in the electronic module. The shaft is securely retained in the electronic module by moving a lock mechanism to a locked position. At least one magnetic field sensor in the electronic module is used to read the position of the shaft in the cavity by sensing or not sensing one or more magnets in the shaft. A wireless communication component in the electronic module wirelessly transmits magnetic field sensor information.

A door having a modular locking system that in embodiments includes a dish which can be arranged on a first side of the door; an actuating lever that can be pivoted in relation to the dish for actuating the locking device that is on the other side of the door; a securing device for arresting the actuating lever on the dish; and a release module that disengages the arresting action; wherein the release module is an extension of the dish.

The present invention discloses a retainer mechanism, comprising a first engagement assembly that is configured to be actively moved to one of a hold or a release state of the first engagement assembly, and a second engagement assembly that is configured to be passively moved to one of a hold or a release state of the second engagement assembly.

A rotary latch mechanism for releasably securing a first structure relative to a second structure. The rotary latch mechanism includes a housing adapted to be attached to the first structure, an actuator assembly coupled to the housing, a linkage coupled to the actuator assembly and arranged for movement along the housing with movement of the actuator assembly, and a bolt coupled to the housing and to the linkage, the bolt arranged for pivotal movement relative to the housing with movement of the linkage. The bolt is adapted to move between a latched position engaged with the second structure to secure the first structure relative to the second structure and an unlatched position spaced apart from the second structure to allow movement of the first structure relative to the second structure.

This present application discloses a handle and a lock structure applying to the handle, the handle including a handle portion and a rotating shaft portion for use with the handle portion, the handle portion and the rotating shaft portion are slidably and rotatably fitted to form a snap-fit mounting structure, and the handle portion is provided with a press-on member for locking the rotating shaft portion after the snap-fit is formed; the snap-fit mounting structure includes a first snap-fit portion and a second snap-fit portion, at least two snap-fit positions are formed on the first snap-fit portion, different snap-fit positions of the snap-fit mounting structure are selected to determine a mating use state of the handle portion and the rotating shaft portion, and the rotating shaft portion is rotated, so that the second snap-fit portion is snap-fitted to a corresponding snap-fit position of the first snap-fit portion.

A modular closure device for different closure elements, such as finger levers, plate cylinders, profile cylinders, profile half cylinders, for locking a pivot lever in a recess, is described, wherein the closure elements can be inserted and fastened in a receptacle arranged in the recess or the pivot lever, either from the front or from the rear, characterised in that the closure device, which has an interchangeable insert adapted to the closure device and having a different design for the various receptacles, interacts with a guide in such a way that this can be inserted into the recess or into the pivot lever, and the recess or the pivot lever having the inserted interchangeable insert can be plugged in a door leaf through an opening in the door leaf or the like and can be fastened with a cap.
