The present invention relates to a security locking system of the type comprising a cylinder (3) provided with a set of pistons (8) that are able to be positioned by elastic means on the impression formed in the edge (7b, 7c) of a control key (7) perpendicularly to the direction in which said key (7) is introduced into the cylinder (3), these pistons (8) being able to take up two positions, namely a position retracted into the cylinder (3) when the key (7) is introduced into the latter and an extended position when the key (7) is withdrawn there from. This system is characterized in that:—the cylinder is made up of a locking block (3) of parallelepipedal shape that is able to be received in a receiving block (5),—it comprises locking means which are activated when the locking block (3) is introduced into the receiving block (5).

An electronic bolt seal assembly for locking a hasp of a cargo container, the assembly comprising: a bolt member comprising a head and an elongate shank extending therefrom; a locking body with a housing comprising a cavity for engaging the shank of the bolt member such that during use in a locking configuration the locking body is operable to lock the shank to the locking body in response to axial displacement of the shank within the housing; an electronic module arranged at or adjacent the head in a housing, the electronic module having one or more tracking and communication devices and an electronic circuit to communicate the electronic bolt seal assembly's location to a remote communication center wherein the one or more sensors further comprise an accelerometer for sensing movement and orientation of the bolt member.

The invention relates to a bolt lock device for securely locking doors of fixed-walled storage or transport containers, in particular large-capacity storage or transport containers made of metal, such as in particular freight containers or commercial vehicle trailers, and the container having a bolt lock device of this kind.

A locking system and method for a movable freight container door comprises an electronic module and a mechanical lock element. The mechanical lock element comprises a shaft, at least of portion of which is configured to be inserted through an aperture in the electronic module, across a door handle retention region, and into a cavity in the electronic module. The shaft is securely retained in the electronic module by moving a lock mechanism to a locked position. At least one magnetic field sensor in the electronic module is used to read the position of the shaft in the cavity by sensing or not sensing one or more magnets in the shaft. A wireless communication component in the electronic module wirelessly transmits magnetic field sensor information.

A lockout system and method are provided. The lockout system prevents unauthorized and inadvertent operation of any system requiring energy isolation by locking out and tagging out the controls. The lockout system includes a housing and a twist member that allows for selective configuration of the lockout system between a release and retention configuration. In the release configuration, the lockout system is adapted to be selectively positioned within the pipe and removed from the pipe. In the retention configuration, the lockout system is semi-permanently secured to the interior of the pipe via an engagement member. The housing and the twist member each comprise an aperture sized to align and receive a lock wherein once received the twist member is cooperatively secured to the housing via the lock in a locked configuration. In the locked configuration, the lockout system is secured to the pipe and prevents access to the pipe.

A barrel lock key configured to unlock a variety of barrel locks requiring various stroke lengths of a barrel lock key to be unlocked is disclosed. The barrel lock key can be actuated between a neutral position, an intermediate position, and an overthrow position. In the neutral position, there are no outside forces acting on the barrel lock key. In an intermediate position, the barrel lock key can be configured to place a barrel lock in an unlocked orientation. In the overthrow position, the barrel lock key is fully actuated and is configured to maintain a barrel lock in an unlocked orientation without excessive forces that act to disengage the barrel lock key from the barrel lock.

A lock comprising a housing, a plunger, a locking member, a locking plate, and a control assembly. The housing having an internal cavity, a recess, and a bore. The plunger is disposed in the bore and is slidable between a closed position wherein a second end of the plunger is positioned in the internal cavity and an intermediate portion of the plunger extends across the recess, and an open position wherein the plunger is withdrawn from the internal cavity and the recess. The locking member is movable between a locking position wherein the locking member is engaged with the plunger and an unlocking position wherein the locking member is disengaged therefrom. The control assembly operates the locking plate between a lock position to hold the locking member in the locking position and an unlock position to permit the plunger to move from the closed position to the open position.

A lock for permanent attachment to a movable freight container cargo door as a replacement for a prior art hasp or a prior art keeper. The lock is configured for permanent attachment to the cargo door using pre-existing hole locations for the prior art hasp or keeper. The lock comprises a straight shackle and a c-shaped lock body and is configured to retain a door handle between the shackle and the back of the c-shaped lock body. The shackle is locked into the lock body using a shackle lock element that engages with a groove in the shackle. The shackle groove is perpendicular to the shaft of the shackle. The shackle lock element is pressed into the groove using by one or more springs in linear direction that is perpendicular to the length of the shackle and perpendicular to the groove, and released from the groove through by a lock module, which could be a lock cylinder or an electronic lock module. Axial movement of the shackle to prevent the shackle from being completely removed from the lock body is accomplished by a screw in the lock body that rides into a longitudinal slot in the shaft of the shackle.
