A securing assembly for locking a first section with a second section of an equipment cabinet against hinging movement. The first section can hingedly support a door of the cabinet. The securing assembly can include a knob, with a pocket, and a latch can be coupled to the knob to be rotated by the knob as the securing assembly is rotated between a free orientation and an engaged orientation. In the free orientation, the latch can be disengaged from the second section to permit the first section to hingedly open away from the second section. In the engaged orientation, the latch can be engaged with the second section to lock the first and second sections together and the pocket of the knob can be receive an arm of a lock on the door to lock the door to the first section and lock the securing assembly in the engaged orientation.

A privacy lock assembly and method of operation are provided. The lock assembly has a push button offset from the central axis of the lock assembly for locking and unlocking the assembly. The lock assembly includes compression springs to maintain integrated handles in predetermined orientations when the handles are not subject to a load.

A door lock includes a main lock ensemble and two auxiliary lock ensembles. Each of the two auxiliary lock ensembles connects the main lock ensemble with a long bar. The main lock ensemble includes a housing with a pivotal part being connected to a horizontal bar and a lock tongue, each of two ends of the horizontal bar connecting with one said long bar to switch the auxiliary lock ensembles locked and unlocked. A lock chip is disposed in the housing. The lock chip includes an accommodating hole with a recess for accommodating a rotatable lock core. A pushing block that is disposed on the lock core extends into the recess.

Disclosed herein are cylindrical door locks configured to indicate the lock status of the door lock to nearby persons. In some instances, the lock status is indicated on a first side of the door. In other instances, the lock status is indicated on both a first side and a second side of the door.

A privacy lock assembly and method of operation are provided. The lock assembly has a push button offset from the central axis of the lock assembly for locking and unlocking the assembly. The lock assembly includes compression springs to maintain integrated handles in predetermined orientations when the handles are not subject to a load.

Handle device for operating doors, windows and the like. The handle device comprises a first element (3, 103), which is rotatable about an axis of rotation, a second element (8, 108), and a coupling device (10, 110) which is arranged to selectively allow and prevent relative rotation about the axis of rotation between the first and the second element. The coupling device comprises a first coupling member (11, 111) which is connected to or forming an integral part of the first element. A second coupling member (12) is connected to or forming an integral part of the second element (112). At least one engaging member (13, 13, 113, 114) is movable between an engagement position in which it simultaneously engages the first and the second coupling members to thereby prevent relative rotation between the first and second element and a release position in which it is disengaged from at least one of the first and second coupling members to thereby allow relative rotation between the first and second element. An actuator (22, 122) is arranged to move the engaging member between the engagement position and the release position. The engaging member (13, 14, 113, 114) is pivotally mounted to the first coupling member (11,111) and arranged to pivotally move between the engagement position and the release position.

The disclosure relates to a magnetic-actuation latch device. The magnetic-actuation latch device includes a housing, a latch element, a sliding plate, an elastic component, a rotating element and a limitation element. A lateral opening of the housing spatially corresponds a first magnetic block mounted on a fixed component. When a second magnetic block of the latch element is aligned to the first magnetic block, an actuation force is generated to drive the latch element to pass through the lateral opening and engage with the fixed component. The elastic component is connected between the sliding plate and the housing. When the rotating element is rotated by an external force, the sliding plate is driven to misalign the second magnetic block from the first magnetic block, and the latch element does not pass through the lateral opening. The limitation element is pivotally connected to the housing for blocking the rotating element.

A handle-locking mechanism for a door comprises a sliding bar, a locking member and a rotatable member all inside a lock body, wherein the rotary motion of the rotatable member drives an upper latch and a lower latch to a locking position and unlocking position; the sliding bar is slidably arranged inside the lock body and one end of the sliding bar abuts against the bolt, and the sliding bar is provided with a first elastic element, and the sliding bar is pushed against the elastic force from the first elastic element when the bolt retracts; the locking member is coupled with the sliding bar, and when the bolt stretches out, the locking member is brought by the sliding bar to a position to block the rotary motion of the rotatable member.

A rotary locked structure of a door lock includes a tubular driving part and connected to a first knob. The driving part includes a restriction portion. An inner tube is received in the driving part and has a positioning portion located corresponding to the restriction portion to restrict rotational movement of the inner tube in the driving part. A restriction unit is formed axially in the inner periphery of the inner tube. A shaft includes a connection portion that includes a positioning unit located corresponding to the restriction unit to restrict rotational movement of the shaft in the inner tube. The driving part, the inner tube and the shaft are pre-assembled in factories. The inner tube and the shaft are not limited to be engaged in only one direction. The spindle and driving column can be directly connected to the inner tube and the shaft without rotating the inner tube and shaft.
