An exemplary trim assembly comprises an escutcheon, a drive spindle, a lock mechanism, a cam mechanism, and a driver. The drive spindle is mounted to the escutcheon for rotation about a longitudinal axis. The lock mechanism includes a lock gear movably mounted in the escutcheon. The cam mechanism includes a first cam defined by the escutcheon and a second cam defined by the lock gear. The driver is operable to rotate the lock gear between a first rotational position and a second rotational position. The cam mechanism is configured to longitudinally drive the lock gear from a first longitudinal position to a second longitudinal position as the lock gear rotates from the first rotational position to the second rotational position. Movement of the lock gear between the first longitudinal position and the second longitudinal position transitions the lock mechanism between a locked state and an unlocked state.

A door lock with a reinforced fireproof effect includes a lock body mounted on a door and inner and outer operating units mounted to two sides of the door, respectively. The lock body includes inner and outer chassis made of ferrous material or stainless steel having a melting point higher than 1300° C. Inner and outer fixing members coupled with the inner and outer chassis are also made of ferrous material or stainless steel. Thus, these components of the door lock are less likely to melt during a fire, reducing the spreading speed of the fire.

The present disclosure provides a lock and a method and a system for controlling the lock. The lock may include an operation part, an action part, and a bolt. The action part may be configured to drive the bolt to move. The operation part and the action part may be connected to each other via a transmission connection. The transmission connection may be blockable.

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).

An exemplary lockset is configured for installation in a standard door preparation, and includes an exterior assembly, an interior assembly, and a center assembly connecting the exterior and interior assemblies. The exterior assembly includes an exterior escutcheon which houses a credential reader assembly including a multi-tech credential reader. The interior assembly includes an interior escutcheon which houses a control system. The center assembly includes a chassis, an outer surface of which may define a channel. The credential reader assembly is in communication with the control assembly via a wire harness, a portion of which may pass through the channel.

A locking mechanism for a bored lock has a lock chassis, a locking element, a motor housing, a reversible electric motor, an auger, and a spiral lock spring disposed between the locking element and the motor. The motor may drive the auger in a first or second rotational direction to move the spring towards/away from the motor to reduce/increase spring force on the locking element, thereby moving the locking element to an unlocked/locked position. One of the locking element and motor housing has a projection while the other has a guideway for slideably receiving the projection. The guideway prevents rotation of the locking element with respect to the motor as it moves between locked and unlocked positions. The projection and guideway are interlocked to prevent disassembly of the locking element and motor housing.
