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.

This invention discloses a high strength security lock cylinder. The lock cylinder includes a front lock housing, a front lock plug, a rear lock housing, a rear lock plug, a horizontal bar, and a lock cam. The front and rear lock plugs are connected with the lock cam and can drive the lock cam to rotate. An electronic locking mechanism is placed inside the front lock plug. The rear lock plug is connected with an axel, which is connected with a knob that contains a digital control board and an electrical power source. A signal transmission channel is formed along the horizontal bar for transmitting signals between the electronic locking mechanism and the digital control board. The lock cylinder is flexible, strong, and resistant to drilling and lock picking and it can be digitally controlled. This reduces the security risks caused by misplacement or unauthorized use of keys.

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.

This cylinder lock is a cylinder lock which can lock and unlock a mortise lock via a displacement transmission member. The cylinder lock comprises: a cylinder lock body; a key insertion part which is provided on one end side of the cylinder lock body and into which a key is inserted; and a displacement transmission member mounting part which is provided on the other end side of the cylinder lock body and on which the displacement transmission member can be mounted. A plurality of displacement transmission members corresponding to each of case locks having a plurality of specifications can be removably mounted on the displacement transmission member mounting part. Thus, cylinder locks having the same specification can be applied to case locks having a variety of specifications.

A locking device is provided including a housing, a barrel, an interchangeable core (IC), and a prong driver. The housing extending along a longitudinal axis and including a first slot. The barrel slidably disposed in a hollow interior of the housing, where the barrel is slidable along the longitudinal axis. The barrel including a second slot and a hollow interior to retain the IC. The IC including a key hole and coupled to the prong driver. The prong driver including an engaging element extending from the prong driver perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis into the first slot and the second slot. When a proper key is inserted into the key hole and rotated, the engaging element is rotated within the first and second slots to allow the barrel to slide along the longitudinal axis to lock and unlock the locking device.

A key cylinder device includes a key cylinder attached inside a cylinder portion of a cylindrical mounting member and locked/unlocked by a mechanical key, and a packing insertion portion that is integrally formed on an outer surface of the key cylinder so as to have a shape without an undercut portion and includes an opening for insertion of a packing member in a vertical direction along the outer surface.

An Apparatus that can be implemented in a conventional pin/tumbler (piston/counter-piston) cylinder lock type without substantial alterations of the hull (body) and/or of the plug (rotor) of the same lock and capable of making the lock resistant in a non-passive way to the lock picking technique called “bumping” by means of a reaction in which the “bumping” mechanical pulse that is (at least partially) received by a first section with greater length of a sectioned counter-piston, is eccentrically transmitted to a pivoting element creating a mechanical torque that converts it at least partially in a reaction pulse applied to a second section of the fractioned counter-piston along a direction that drives the said second section to engage the lock position between the body and the rotor.

A metal door includes a pair of sheet metal door panels. Each of the door panels includes a central body portion with top, bottom and opposing side edges. The doors include an integral flange along each side edge of each panel. The integral flange extends generally perpendicular to the central body portion. An integral inturned lip can be located along each flange and extend substantially parallel to the central body portion. The door panels are positioned such that the central body portions are in an opposing spaced apart relation to one another with the flanges adjacent to and aligned with one another. The inturned lips are positioned in contacting face-to-face relation. The metal door also includes an elongate connector overlying and clamping together each face-to-face pair of inturned lips to maintain the door panels in assembled relation.
