摘要:
A lock includes a housing, a keypad disposed on the housing, and a latch assembled with the housing. The keypad includes a plurality of button assemblies, each including an axially depressible button member including a camming surface, a lock wheel having a plurality of camming teeth, and a latch releasing feature secured to the lock wheel for rotation therewith. Pressing the button member causes the camming surface to engage one of the plurality of calming teeth, thereby incrementally rotating the lock wheel between a plurality of rotational positions. When the button members of a predetermined one or more of the plurality of button assemblies are depressed a predetermined number of times, the latch releasing features of each of the plurality of button assemblies align with a plurality of blocking features of the latch to permit lateral sliding movement of the latch from a locked condition to an unlocked condition.

In a method of monitoring lockout procedures, a first lockout device is secured with a first component in a lockout condition to block operation of the first component, and a corresponding first data signal is received, with the first data signal including at least a first identification code corresponding to the first lockout device. A second lockout device is secured with a second component in a lockout condition to block operation of the second component, and a corresponding second data signal is received, with the second data signal including at least a second identification code corresponding to the second lockout device. The first and second data signals are monitored to determine an order in which the first and second lockout devices have been locked out, which is compared with a predefined lockout procedure. An alert is provided if the order is inconsistent with the predefined lockout procedure.
摘要:
A turnable lock (10) operable with driver (15u) and tumbler (15l) pins when positioned by a key (16) at a shear line (18) in which shearable assembly pins (15a) are assembled in the lock (10) and thereafter sheared to form such driver (15u) and tumbler (15l) pins for operation thereon. Each assembly pin (15a) is selectively weakened at a plurality of locations (17) which correspond with notched depth heights of the family of keys (16) capable of insertion in the keyhole. Such weakening is controlled so that pin shearing can be accomplished by application of rotational or linear forces applied to any part of the lock (10) except the key (16). When linear forces are used the tumbler or plug (13) may be indexed to employ a driver pin (15u) as a plug lock.

A battery operated device includes a housing, an operating mechanism and an internal battery disposed within the housing, and an access member assembled with the housing and movable between first and second positions. The operating mechanism includes first and second sets of electrical contacts for transmitting power to the operating mechanism, with the internal battery being electrically connectable with the first set of electrical contacts for powering the operating mechanism. The access member is movable between a first position blocking external access to the second set of electrical contacts and connecting the first set of electrical contacts to the internal battery, and a second position permitting external access to the second set of electrical contacts and disconnecting the internal battery from the first set of electrical contacts.
