A door assembly includes a door having opposing first and second surfaces and a hole defined in the door and extending between the first and second surfaces, a cylinder lock mounted to the second surface at the hole, and a cylinder dry lock assembly mounted to the door at the hole adjacent the first surface. The cylinder dry lock assembly including a main body that defines a central orifice, a low-friction member received within the central orifice, and an actuation mechanism extending from the low-friction member and engageable with the cylinder lock. Actuating the cylinder lock rotates the actuation mechanism, and the cylinder dry lock assembly generates a sealed interface at the hole that prevents water from migrating between the first and second surfaces at the hole.

A locking system for an enclosure, including a control bracket mounted to a door of the enclosure and configured to slide in a longitudinal direction along a guide rod running through a pin bracket of the control bracket. The control bracket further includes a latching pin to secure the door of the enclosure. A handle mechanism has a push rod that causes the control bracket to slide along the longitudinal direction, also causing the latching pin to move into a position that secures the door.

A lock for an aircraft door. The lock includes an outer shell having an inner cavity. A core is rotatably mounted within the inner cavity to rotate about an axis of the core. The core has a keyhole extending through the core from a first end of the core for receiving a key therein, to an opposed second end of the core. The keyhole defines an air leakage path through the core. A cam has a cam arm mounted about the core and is rotatable therewith. The second end of the core protrudes from the cam. A cover is attached to the second end of the core. The cover blocks the keyhole at the second end of the core and obstructing the air leakage path. An aircraft door, methods, and a retrofit kit are also disclosed.

A locking system for an enclosure, including a control bracket mounted to a door of the enclosure and configured to slide in a longitudinal direction along a guide rod running through a pin bracket of the control bracket. The control bracket further includes a latching pin to secure the door of the enclosure. A handle mechanism has a push rod that causes the control bracket to slide along the longitudinal direction, also causing the latching pin to move into a position that secures the door.

A door sealing system for a container having a container door is provided. The container can be part of a vacuum system, for example as mounted on a trailer. The sealing system is hydraulically actuated and includes a mechanical lock. A corresponding vacuum system and method of operation are also provided.

A walk-in tub includes a tub frame having a door frame provided in one or more of the walls of the tub frame. The tub further includes a door hingedly connected to the door frame and adapted for movement between an open position into the interior cavity of the tub and a closed position aligned with the door frame. A sealing face is provided on the door frame facing the interior cavity of the tub. A seal is disposed around a perimeter of the door for sealing the door against the sealing face when the door is in the closed position. A latching mechanism on the door is operable between a latching position and an unlatching position and includes a slidable latching pin that is slidable to engage a pin receiver in the latching position when the door is locked and disengage from the pin receiver in the unlatching position when the door is unlocked.

Assembly including a first volume and a device for connection between the first volume and a second volume, the first volume including a first flange and a first door, and the second enclosed volume including a second flange and a second door, the connection device including a securing and disengaging mechanism intended to secure the first and second doors and to disengage the second door from its flange, the mechanism including a plate mounted on the first door. The assembly also including an immobilisation mechanism for immobilising the plate relative to the first door in a position in the absence of the second door and in another position in the presence of the second door in a state of securing the first and second doors, and unlocking the second door relative to the second flange.

A latch structure includes a moving member, a nut and a screw. The moving member includes a base plate, a receiving portion and a limiting portion. The receiving portion has a first end portion and a second end portion. The first end portion is connected to the base plate. The limiting portion is disposed at the second end portion of the receiving portion. The nut is fixed into the receiving portion and positioned proximate to the first end portion. The screw is received in the receiving portion and confined to between the limiting portion and the nut.

A fastening device for axially fastening a rotatably mounted threaded pin to a closing element, in particular a door, having a fastening element, which can be screwed onto the threaded pin, and having a backward-rotation prevention means for securing the screwed-on fastening element, wherein the backward-rotation prevention means has a sealing region for sealing the threaded pin with respect to the closing element. The disclosure also describes a closure actuator and a closing element incorporating the fastening device.

A door and window floodproofing assembly for preventing flood waters from entering a building includes an inflatable sealer apparatus and a battery cover apparatus. The inflatable sealer apparatus comprises a sealer body having a sealer front side, a sealer back side, and a sealer perimeter defining a sealer inside. The sealer inside is inflatable and dimensioned to fit within a door jamb or a window frame. A sealer flap is flexibly coupled to the sealer perimeter adjacent the sealer back side. The battery cover apparatus comprises a panel having a panel front side, a panel back side, and a panel perimeter. A plurality of latches is coupled to the panel front side adjacent the panel perimeter. A plurality of receivers is selectively engageable with the plurality of latches. Each receiver is coupled to the door jamb or the window frame.
