A cam lock for cabinets adaptable to cabinet drawers and doors of various thicknesses is disclosed. The cam lock includes a cam, a plug, an adapter, and a cylinder housing. The plug has a keyway and tumblers in communication with the keyway. The adapter is configured to couple to the cam and the plug. The cylinder housing is configured to receive the plug and the adapter. The retainer clip is configured to extend through the cylinder housing into registry with the plug after the plug and adapter are inserted into the cylinder to thereby retain both the plug and the adapter in the cylinder housing, whereby installation of the cam lock in the cabinet is simplified.

A compensating element having first and second modules is disclosed. A locking mechanism which can be switched between a first and a second operating state is provided. The first module is connected firmly to the second module in the first operating state. The first operating state defines a zero position between the first and the second module. The first and the second module are connected to one another in the second operating state by a spring mechanism in such a way that they are movable relative to one another. The compensating element has a midaxis, and the first and the second module are arranged at least partially next to one another in the direction of the midaxis. A measuring system is also disclosed with which the relative position between the first and the second module can be measured. The first or second module includes an externally visible luminous surface. A luminous state of the luminous surface is dependent on the relative position measured by the measuring system.

Ratchet lock assemblies for use with various locking actuation members such as, but not limited to, lock cylinders of interchangeable core cylinder types are provided. In one embodiment, a ratchet lock assembly includes a plunger barrel with at least one projection extending therefrom. The at least one projection configured to mate with at least one aperture of a locking bar or strike plate to lock the ratchet lock assembly in place. In another embodiment, a ratchet lock assembly is provided with an anti-shim configuration to prevent unwanted removal of the ratchet lock assembly. The anti-shim ratchet lock assembly includes a driver and cam to lock a member, e.g., a spring, of the ratchet lock assembly to a locking bar or strike plate.

A door lock includes a lock with a latch. An inside face plate and an outside face plate of the door lock are respectively mounted to an inside plate and an outside plate of the door lock. A washer plate is sandwiched between the inside face plate and the outside face plate. An inside cylinder and an outside cylinder are connected between the inside plate and the outside plate. An inside collar is connected between the inside face plate and the inside cylinder, and an outside collar is connected between the outside face plate and the outside cylinder. When the door lock is set in ready-to-open mold, the door can be opened by either rotating the shafts or the door handle by one hand. When the door lock is set in locked mold, the door cannot be opened by simply rotating the door handle.

In one aspect of the present disclosure, a locking device is provided including an interchangeable core (IC), a barrel, an anti-rotation plate, a prong driver, a bolt and a backplate. The barrel is coupled to the backplate and includes a hollow interior to receive the IC. The bolt is slidably disposed in a slot of the backplate. The IC includes a key hole. The prong driver is coupled to the IC and the bolt, such that, when a proper key is inserted into the key hole and rotated the bolt can be extended from the slot in a direction away from the locking device or retracted into the slot in a direction toward the interior of the locking device. The anti-rotation plate of the locking device is coupled to the barrel to prevent the locking device from being rotated relative to a structure the locking device is mounted to.

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.
