MODULAR LATCH SYSTEM
A compression latch for a door includes a driver that is rotatable with respect to the door between an unlocked position and a locked position. The driver is configured to be mounted to one side of the door. A driver shaft is non-rotatably connected to the driver such that the driver shaft rotates along with the driver. In an unlocked position of the driver, the pawl is positioned to permit opening of the door, and, in a locked position of the driver, the pawl is positioned to prevent opening of the door. The compression latch is configured to translate the pawl closer toward the door upon rotating the driver from the unlocked position to the locked position.
TUBULAR EXIT DEVICE AND METHOD OF INSTALLATION
An exit device assembly for coupling to a door having a first side and second side. A first exit device may be coupled to the first side of the door. The first exit device may include a main tube extending from a first end to a second end and a first adjustment tube coupled to the first end of the main tube. The first adjustment tube may be axially adjustable relative to the main tube along a first adjustment axis. An actuator assembly may be supported within an interior of the main tube of the first exit device and may be moveable between a first position and a second position. A latchbolt may be coupled to the actuator assembly and may be moveable between a retracted position and an extended position in which the latchbolt engages a latch.
Vertical Latch Bolt
An improved roller latch bolt that asymmetrically locates the roller within a roller support is presented. The improved design allows for a roller to make contact with a ramp surface of a corresponding strike plate on a sweep side of the plate and allows for the roller support to make contact with the strike plate on a latch side of the plate. The improved roller latch bolt maintains the smooth operation of roller latch bolts while also providing the increased door security and other benefits of non-roller latch bolts.
Lock with a roller deadbolt
A lock with a roller deadbolt includes a driving member having a first slot and a transverse slot. The driving member is connected to a first spring, a second spring and a positioning rod. A deadbolt includes a body, an insertion member, a roller and a slide. The driving member is connected to the body. The insertion member is received in the body. The second spring biases the insertion member. The slide is restricted by the positioning rods of the driving member and has a first guide pin extending through the first slot. The slide is movable along the first slot. The guide hole includes an extension slot and an inclined slot which inclinedly communicates with the extension slot. When in a non-transmission position, the roller protrudes beyond the receiving space. When in the transmission position, the roller does not protrude beyond the receiving space.
CUSHIONED CARABINER CLIP
The present invention relates to an improved carabiner system, including an impact-dampening cushion around the external surface of the frame for cushioning damage during a fall or collision and to reduce sound from loose or swinging carabiner collisions. Additional surface routing and through holes provide improved register between the carabiner frame and the over-molded cushion layer.
Quiet Door Latch
A door latch mechanism including a latch housing, a bolt having a proximal end with a head and a distal end having a latch, a hub including a central bore for receiving a spindle, a lever actuated by rotation of the hub, the lever including a slot in a top portion of the lever receiving the head of the bolt such that the lever and the bolt move together in both rearward and forward directions.
Retrofit latch adapter
A retrofit latch adapter is configured to replace a pre-existing roller head latch assembly of a pre-existing exit device. The retrofit latch adapter may include a flat latch head that may provide additional security for a door compared with the pre-existing roller head pre-existing latch assembly. A method of installing such a retrofit latch adapter in a preexisting exist device may include rotationally releasing a pre-existing latch assembly having a roller latch head from the pre-existing exit device; rotating the pre-existing latch assembly to linearly decouple the pre-existing latch assembly from a transmission of the pre-existing exit device; removing the pre-existing latch assembly from the pre-existing exit device; rotating the retrofit latch adapter to linearly couple the retrofit latch adapter to the transmission of the pre-existing exit device; inserting the retrofit latch adapter at least partially into a housing of the pre-existing exit device; aligning the flat latch head with an uppermost portion of the housing of the pre-existing exit device; and rotationally securing the retrofit latch adapter to the pre-existing exit device.
Lock with a long-travel deadbolt
A lock with a long-travel deadbolt includes a first guide member and a loop-shaped rail. A driving member is slidably mounted to the first guide member and includes a second guide member and a third guide member. A third notch is defined in an underside of the driving member. An extension plate is eccentrically and pivotably connected to the second guide member. An extension slot is defined in the extension plate and the first guide member slidably extends through the extension slot. A stop plate is pivotably connected to the third guide member and has an extension portion which has a corner protruding from a side thereof. The third notch and the corner are located at the rail. When rotating the core, the first guide member moves from one end of the extension slot to the other end of the extension slot, the deadbolt travels at least 22 mm.
Lock with replaceable modules
A lock with replaceable modules includes a first part and a second part which is connected to the first part. The lock has a latch bolt recess, a restriction recess and a deadbolt recess so as to selectively install a latch bolt, a restriction bolt and a deadbolt. A lock block is selectively installed in the restriction recess. The lock includes an installation slot which can be selectively oriented in different directions, and a core recess for receiving the deadbolt. The lock is selectively installed with different components by features of modularization and normalization so as to reduce inventory pressure. The customers may install the lock to entrance doors, gate doors, storage room doors, emergency doors, room doors, bathroom doors or the like.
Lock with emergency unlocking feature
A lock with an emergency unlocking feature includes a latch bolt, a top rotation member, a restriction plate and a driving member. The driving member is connected to the deadbolt. When the top rotation member is rotated from a close position to an open position while the lock is locked, a restriction member drives the restriction plate to press a resilient unit. The restriction plate is moved to disengage the engaging member on the restriction plate from the second notch of the driving member. The guide slot of the transmission plate pulls the second guide member to move the deadbolt to the unlocked position, and the latch bolt moves to the open position. When in an emergency situation, the user rotates the handle to retract both of the deadbolt and the latch bolt without using a key to unlock the deadbolt to save time.
