    Abstract: A lock comprising a latch bolt and a dead bolt, a dead bolt lever to move the dead bolt, a key actuated cylinder with a rotary driving bit, a second turn latch bolt lever to move the latch bolt by using the key, a second turn latch bolt driver as an intermediary between the driving bit and the second turn lever, a spring urging the second turn driver in the path of the driving bit, and a locking mechanism to lock the dead bolt. The second turn driver comprises a follower portion which, upon actuation by the driving bit, moves the second turn driver out of the path of the driving bit thereby preventing the driving bit from being blocked. The locking mechanism comprises a slot having two catches and a spring biased lever mounted on the dead bolt lever to lock the dead bolt lever.

    Abstract: A hinge for coupling a closure member to a support includes a first hinge member and a second hinge member pivotably mounted on the first hinge member through the intermediary of two rolling bearings that are placed between different abutments. The hinge further includes a damping mechanism for damping a closing movement of the closure member; and an energy storing mechanism for storing energy when opening the closure member and using the energy to close the closure member. One of the rolling bearings supports the weight of a right-handed closure member while the other of the rolling bearings supports the weight of a left-handed closure member if the first hinge member is always fixed to the same element.
