Aspects of the present disclosure describe a rechargeable door that includes at least one internal rechargeable battery and at least one further DC component powered by such rechargeable battery, wherein the at least one internal rechargeable battery is configured to be recharged via a physical connection, such as wired connections, or other contacts such as magnetic contacts or pogo pins or spring contacts, in the door via a second rechargeable battery or via wireless recharging, for example magnetic inductive or resonance charging, via placement of the second rechargeable battery on or within the door.

Lock arrangement including a counterpart of the lock and a lock with a lock case. The lock case, which can be installed in a door, includes a locking latch and a latch mechanism, which includes an electrical device for opening and/or closing the locking latch. The counterpart of the lock can be installed in the frame of the door. A device for wirelessly sending electrical power to the lock case and/or into connection with the lock case is arranged in the counterpart of the lock; a mechanism is arranged in connection with the lock case for wirelessly receiving electrical power from the device for sending electrical power that is arranged in connection with the counterpart of the lock. Electrical power is arranged to be transmitted from the device for sending electrical power to the mechanism for receiving electrical power, when the lock case and the counterpart of the lock are at a certain distance from each other. The mechanism for receiving and device for sending electrical power are also arranged to transfer encrypted information relating to the operation of the lock.

An actuating device (12) comprising a stationary structure (20); an actuating element (22) rotatable relative to the stationary structure (20); an electric power source (24, 82); a spindle (26) arranged to be rotated by rotation of the actuating element (22); a locking member (28) movable between a locked position (66) and an unlocked position (86); an electromechanical transfer device (30, 84) arranged in the spindle (26), the transfer device (30, 84) being configured to adopt a locked state (68) and an unlocked state (78); a receiver device (34) fixed with respect to the spindle (26), the receiver device (34) being electrically connected 62 to the transfer device (30, 84); and a transmitter device (32) fixed with respect to the stationary structure (20) and arranged to be electrically powered by the power source (24, 82), the transmitter device (32) being configured to wirelessly transmit power to the receiver device (34).

A system for securing a device having a case and a security feature integrated into the device. The system has a device security apparatus removably mountable on the device by agency of the security feature on the case of the device. The device security apparatus may include a base element configured to mount on the device by releasably engaging the security feature of the device, and may further include a securing element removably mounted on the base element. The securing element may include at least one of a plurality of modules configured to interchangeably mount on the base element. The plurality of modules may include a mechanical connection module configured to physically connect the device security apparatus to an object, and a monitoring module configured to monitor movement of the device security apparatus and any device connected to the device security apparatus.

A merchandise security device is provided. The merchandise security device may include a lock mechanism operably engaged with a shape memory material configured to receive electrical power for locking and unlocking the lock mechanism. The shape memory material may be configured to change in shape in response to receiving electrical power to thereby lock or unlock the lock mechanism.

One embodiment provides a charging door lock system that includes a door lock jamb connected with a first electrical component that provides a power source, and a combination unit that includes one or more rechargeable batteries. A locking bolt is connected to the combination unit. The locking bolt is integrated with a second electrical component that receives power from the power source for charging the one or more rechargeable batteries.

An embodiment of the present disclosure discloses a wireless charging device comprising a wireless receiving module, a controller, a first charging module, and a second charging module. The wireless receiving module is configured to receive a wireless charging signal in response to the wireless charging device being in a wireless sensing area, transmit a state indication signal to the controller, receive a charging indication signal from the controller, and determine whether to transmit the wireless charging signal to the first charging module according to the charging indication signal. The controller is configured to transmit the charging indication signal to the wireless receiving module according to the state indication signal, and in response to the charging indication signal instructing the wireless receiving module to transmit the wireless charging signal, output a control signal to the first charging module to control the first charging module to receive the wireless charging signal, charge the second charging module, and output an electrical signal. The first charging module is configured to, in response to receiving the control signal, receive the wireless charging signal, charge the second charging module, and output the electrical signal.

A system and method for a door is disclosed. The system includes a frame magnetic lock assembly mounted to a door frame, and a door magnetic lock assembly mounted to a door for receiving inductively transferred power from the frame magnetic lock assembly. The door system also includes a door electronics subsystem mounted to the door that includes a power management system that provides power to the door from the inductively transferred power, and charges an energy storage element at the door from the inductively transferred power. The power management system provides power to the door from the energy storage element when the inductively transferred power is not available at the door, such as when the door is open, and resumes providing power to the door from the inductively transferred power once the inductively transferred power is restored. Once restored, some of the inductive power recharges the energy storage element.
