An adjustable door lock may include a catch plate adapted to be secured adjacent to the door. A plurality of catch brackets may be connected to the catch plate. A catch may be adjustably connected to the catch plate and interfitted through the catch brackets. Such a catch preferably has a linear channel formed therein. A door plate may be disposed adjacent to the catch plate and adapted to be secured to the door. A locking bolt may further be housed within the door plate and may be linearly reciprocated along a first linear path passing through the door plate and the linear channel. In this way, the catch may be automatically adjusted along a second linear path orthogonally registered relative to the first linear path such that the linear channel automatically becomes axially aligned with the locking bolt as the locking bolt ingresses and egresses the catch.

A locking piece for a locking unit includes a housing having a housing opening. A locking arm, which engages through the housing opening, is mounted so as to be displaceable, in a direction at a right angle to its longitudinal direction, in the housing opening. A slide is guided displaceably in the housing in the displacement direction of the locking arm and is motion-coupled to the locking arm in the displacement direction. The housing and/or the slide are/is formed from magnetically attractable material. At least one magnet acts between the housing and slide and positionally fixes the locking arm in each possible displacement position within the housing opening.

An adjustable door lock includes a catch plate having a body and a plurality of flanges positioned on an exterior face of the body such that a corresponding gap is formed between the body and each of the flanges, respectively. Advantageously, a catch having a channel is adjustably connected to the catch plate wherein the catch is selectively interfitted through at least of one of the gaps. A door plate is disposed adjacent to the catch plate and adapted to be secured to the door. A locking bolt is in communication with the door plate and linearly reciprocated along a first linear path passing along the door plate and the channel. Notably, the catch is automatically adjusted along a second linear path orthogonally registered relative to the first linear path such that the linear channel automatically becomes axially aligned with the locking bolt as the locking bolt ingresses and egresses the catch.

A locking piece includes a housing which has a, in particular, rectangular housing opening and a slide which is arranged in the housing. At the housing side, the slide is guided so as to be able to be linearly displaced between two end positions and which has a locking arm which extends at right-angles with respect to the displacement direction of the slide and protrudes forward through the housing opening. A spring clip is arranged behind the slide, which spring clip extends in the displacement direction and which is anchored at the two clip ends thereof in the housing. The slide is arranged between the housing and the spring clip and is retained in abutment with the housing by the spring clip.

A hidden latch system for an interior structure of an aircraft includes at least two engagement features coupled to an interior structure of an aircraft. Each of the at least two engagement features includes an engagement portion, an engagement rod, and a self-centering feature. The engagement portion is configured to engage and release the engagement rod, and the self-centering feature is configured to self-center the engagement rod in at least one direction. Further, the engagement portion is configured to release the engagement rod using a cable pull system.

A self-adjusting vehicle door lock catch assembly includes: a lock catch body, which includes a base and a lock cylinder, where the base is provided with a bolt through-hole, a first surface of the base is provided with a slide groove, and the lock cylinder is fixedly connected to the first surface of the base; a floating adjustment piece, which is provided in the slide groove, where the floating adjustment piece is provided with an opening, and the bolt through-hole has a diameter larger than that of the opening of the floating adjustment piece; a fastener, where the diameter of the opening of the floating adjustment piece matches a size of the fastener; and a limit block which is connected to the base, where a limit groove is provided between the limit block and the base, and the limit block limits the lock catch body through the limit groove.
